Lucie's thesis: Generating Article Placeholders from Wikidata for Wikipedia - Increasing Access to Free and Open Knowledge
Wikimedia Commons gets arbitrary access
By Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing)
Tech developments
- We have new images you can use to indicate your website/app/service is using data from Wikidata.
- SQUID: a new class and property browser for Wikidata (background info)
- Listeria bot (the one generating lists on Wikipedia based on Wikidata data) will now begin auto-replacing simple WDQ queries with SPARQL ones
- ArticlePlaceholder is going live on the first small Wikipedias on May 11th and could use your help
- This article from Russian Wikipedia is generated only with Lua Module and Listeria, based on its Wikidata item
- Great examples on French and Russian Wikipedia for infobox based on Wikidata: fr:Andrew Tanenbaum, ru:Таненбаум, Эндрю and references based on Wikidata: fr:Trappeur, ru:Доказательство с нулевым разглашением
- A handy user-script for duplicating items, for when a new item has similar property values to an existing one. See for instance, this set of edits for a second version of an artwork.
