Task/s: I would like to work on Wikidata:Country subdivision task force. I'm going to start with Poland because I have sufficient data for it. I've used this data to create articles about gminas for Ukrainian Wikipedia.

Function details: my pywikipedia-based code. --DixonD (talk) 11:47, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

• Can you please do some test edits? ~200 should be good. Thanks, Legoktm (talk) 10:23, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

  I've run the bot to add some info for voivodeships (provinces). The only problem I see is that Pywikipedia doesn't allow adding at once, that's why the bot clutters histories a bit. --DixonD (talk) 09:19, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

 Support it's a little bit annoing, that it doesn't add multiple claims at once, but the edits look ok.--CENNOXX (talk) 13:32, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I agree with you. If pywikipedia supports it, I'll change my code accordingly. But I have neither desire nor time to dive into pywikipedia code to change by myself. --DixonD (talk) 15:01, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Wikidata itself doesn't support adding multiple claims at once. Legoktm (talk) 23:01, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

 Comment The trial seems to have gone well. — Hazard-SJ  ✈  03:49, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

Should I wait several more days before posting a request on Meta? --DixonD (talk) 20:44, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

Yes, the request should be closed by an administrator here first.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:52, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
