current talk page.
This week, most of the developers are at the
Dev Summit hacking stuff and doing great things!
Continued working on "federation" – support for multiple Wikibase repositories (
phab:T76007)
New dimensions for unit conversion in the query service (
phab:T150881)
Fixed a timing issue that can happen when using the property suggester (
phab:T115267)
Still investigating an issue in which the "save" button stays disabled, as
reported in December
We may remove the sliding animation when using the date, geo, monolingual, and quantity experts (
gerrit:330145). The preview popup may now cover parts of the page. Please try it at
wikidata.beta.wmflabs.org and tell us what you think on
our contact page.
Attended the Wikimedia Developer Summit to talk about a lot of things (including editing Wikidata from Wikipedia directly, back-end work for structured data support for Commons - specifically Multi Content Revisions, ideas for improvements to the query service)
Final touches to get ArticlePlaceholder pages ready for search engine indexing
Continued working on "federation" – support for multiple Wikibase repositories (
phab:T76007)
Clickable prototype for
client editing is finally in the works!
Coordinates on Russian Wikipedia now link to maps generated with the
Kartographer extension. The map includes the location outline, if that object exists in OpenStreetMap (OSM) with a corresponding Wikidata ID (ways and relations only, not nodes). Example:
w:ru:Зальцбург (click coordinates in the upper right corner, or in the infobox on the side). If you create a Wikidata item about a specific administrative area, building, or other physical individual object which appears on maps, then please add the Wikidata ID to the relevant object in OSM, using
key:wikidata= (here's
how to contribute to OSM).
QuickStatements V2 can now run your commands in the background, no need to keep the browser tab open anymore
