Wikidata weekly summary #163
- Discussions
- German language Wikipedia closed its RfC on usage of Wikidata data. As a result Wikidata data can be used on the project as long as it happens through a template and it has a non-Wikimedia reference.
- Events/Blogs/Press
- Past: Office hour on IRC. We talked about cool things that happened around Wikidata over the past 3 months got an update on upcoming developments and Freebase and more. You can read the log.
- Other Noteworthy Stuff
- en:South Pole Telescope is a nice example of an infobox completely filled from Wikidata.
- Q20150617 was created on 2015-06-17
- More data from Freebase have been added the Primary Sources Tool. There is also a page to help the mapping of Freebase properties.
- Nice new manual for MixnMatch
- The new nature.com/ontologies links to external ontologies and datasets; among them Wikidata.
- National Gallery of Art and the J. Paul Getty Museum now have entries for all their paintings on Wikidata thanks to wiki project Sum of all Paintings
- Did you know?
- Newest properties: takeoff and landing capability, Discogs label ID, Discogs master ID, Discogs artist ID, Encyclopaedia Metallum band id, investor, second surname in Spanish name, CulturaItalia ID, BerlPap identifier, Mapillary id, National Library of Ireland authority
- Newest WikiProjects: Cross Items Interwikis
- Development
- Made a small API breaking change to wbeditentity and wbgetclaims modules. Details can be seen in the commit message of https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/217885/
- Worked more on unit support
- Fixed an issue where you'd sometimes select the wrong value when entering a statement unintentionally (phabricator:T98471)
- Switched the whole code base to make use of DataModel 3.0
- The concept of “claims” no longer exists in Wikibase, as all places in the software work with statements. We are making this more and more explicit in the code.
- The autoloading mechanism of the extension changed, see phabricator:T100813
- More work on getting the Wikibase Quality extensions ready for deployment. They'll improve constraint checking and provide checks against 3rd party databases.
- Special:UnconnectedPages had to be reworked (thanks Amir!) because of huge performance issues. Because of this it loses some functionality (being able to specify where the list starts and limiting the list to pages that have local interwiki links). We're working on bringing functionality back without the performance penalty.
- Bene* created a SPARQL abstraction layer for PHP called Asparagus: https://github.com/Benestar/asparagus
- Enabled arbitrary access on arwiki, cawiki, eswiki, huwiki, kowiki, rowiki, ukwiki, viwiki, and usage tracking on dewiki, ruwiki, cswiki and all s3 wikis. (ruwiki and cswiki get arbitrary access on June 23)
- Finishing work on improved handling “invalid” values and statements with deleted properties.
- Small breaking DOM change: Wikibase no longer adds its own h1 tag but uses MediaWiki's default .firstHeading element. (phabricator:T93534)
- Monthly Tasks
- Hack on one of these.
- Help fix these items which have been flagged using Wikidata - The Game.
- Help develop the next summary here!
- Contribute to a Showcase item
- Help translate or proofread pages in your own language!
- Add labels, in your own language, for the new properties listed above.

Content Translation, the new article creation tool is now available as a beta-feature
Hello, Content Translation has now been enabled as an opt-in beta feature on the Arabic Wikipedia. To start translating:
- Please enable the Beta feature in your preferences by checking the box for Content Translation.
- Visit the page Special:ContentTranslation or to your contributions page to open the tool.
- Click on the button to create a new translation.
- In the displayed dialog select the language of the original article and the article name, and the language you would like to translate to. Also add the title of the new article (or the original title will be inserted) and click on to begin. Your language preferences will be remembered for the next time.
- You will see a screen consisting of three columns. The first column contains the text of the source language and the middle column is for the translated text. Using the third column you can perform several actions such as insert source text, remove the inserted text source text, add or remove links etc.
- After you translate the article, you can publish it directly as a new page on the Arabic Wikipedia by using the publish button that appears. In case the article gets created by another user while you were translating, you will see an option to save the newly published translation under your user namespace.
- The number of published pages can be seen on the Content Translation stats page.
Since this is the first time we have installed the tool on this Wikipedia, there are chances that there may be some problems or service disruptions which we are not yet aware of. We will be monitoring the usage to check for any failures or issues, but please do let us know on the Content Translation talk page or through Phabricator if you spot any problems. For more information, please read the information available in the User Guide. Thank you.
