Statue in <country>

Hi Hogü-456, I noticed a couple of edits like this one part of a rather large batch. You added "Statue in <country>" to instances of sculpture (Q860861). This is incorrect, this should have been "Skulptur". Statue should only be used for statue (Q179700). Could you please correct this or undo the batch? Thank you, Multichill (talk) 12:16, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Multichill, I tried to reset the batch. You are rigtht, statue is not the same as sculpture. What is the difference and how do you define a statue or a sculpture. I think in the the batch where I added Statue as the description there are many statues who are sculptures. Next time I think more about it, before adding a description like this. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 14:00, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidata in Ulm

Hallo!

Der Termin für den Wikidata-Workshop in Ulm ist schon diese Woche und wir freuen uns! Möchtest du dort eine Einführung in die Datenaufbereitung und OpenRefine halten? Dann würden wir dich einplanen dafür. --Jens Ohlig (WMDE) (talk) 12:46, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In OpenRefine habe ich noch nichts gemacht bisher. Das habe ich einmal heruntergeladen und es hat dann nicht funktioniert. Ich bereite die Daten in einem :Tabellenkalkulationsprogramm auf. Wie ich das mache, kann ich gerne zeigen.

Gruß -- Hogü-456 (talk) 18:28, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hier die Query für weibliche Bezeichungen:

SELECT ?occupation ?label WHERE {
  ?occupation wdt:P2521 ?label.
  FILTER(LANG(?label) = "de")
}

Try it!

Something went wrong

Example: [1]. Matěj Suchánek (talk) 20:12, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I try to fix it. I made a query with all descriptions for people from Czech Republik and found 1200 mistakes. I change my tablecalculation file for the description. Thank you for the information and have a nice evening. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 20:53, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mayors' jurisdictions

I notice that you added many items for the positions of mayors of towns (such as mayor of Langenneufnach (Q57520732)), using located in the administrative territorial entity (P131) to point to the relevant town. This is not the correct property for that relation. The correct property is applies to jurisdiction (P1001). --Yair rand (talk) 00:32, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have some problems with quick statements. I tried it and it doesnt work to remove the P131 property and set P1001. Do you know how I have to write it in quick statements that it works. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 18:28, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mister Synergy has done it for me. Now they have the correct property. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 20:57, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

hamlet in Canada

Hi, the descriptions you added in german seem wrong [2]. This hamlet is in Canada. --Fralambert (talk) 02:46, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

+2 more errors in La Farga (Q31781231) and Marinyans (Q21480044). Aren't you relying on country (P17) ? --El Caro (talk) 07:43, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I try to correct it today. I make a query an look what for hamlets are wrong and correct them. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 08:29, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

+1 more error in Special:Diff/919604946. Please take more care. --Dipsacus fullonum (talk) 09:00, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I made a query and found 335 mistakes. I have corrected them and on today evening I look again and maybe I find more mistakes. Next time I take more care and I look ::why I created these false descriptions. I havent found the mistake in my tablecalculation file yet. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 10:05, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Former hospitals described as "hospital"

Hi Hogü-456

When working on Wikidata:WikiProject Medicine/Hospitals by country, I found that there was no easy way to identify former hospitals and many former hospitals were described in English as "hospital".

In the meantime, I added instance of (P31)=former hospital (Q64578911) to these and updated the English description from "hospital" to "former hospital" (or something more specific). If it already read something different (e.g. "museum"), I didn't change it. Interestingly, Wikidata:WikiProject_Medicine/Hospitals_by_country/Malta has more former hospitals than current ones.

Anyways, as I noticed you were editing descriptions for hospitals in German, I thought you might want to do the same change there. --- Jura 07:22, 19 June 2019 (UTC) Thanks for theinformation. I make a query and change the descriptions if needed. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 14:18, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Userpage

Hi User:Hogü-456, can you take a look at your userpage? Looks like Cradle, ist ein Tool mit welchem man über Formulare Daten eingeben kann.) would look better. :-) Lotje (talk) 05:50, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Länder mit Artikel: in der Türkei

Hallo Hogü-456, die Beschreibung für Akçakoca Central Mosque (Q6057904) sollte denke ich besser „Moschee in der Türkei“ sein. Das Problem wird es wohl noch bei mehr Datenobjekten geben und wahrscheinlich für die meisten Ländern, deren Name im Deutschen kein Neutrum ist. Ich wollte es Dich nur wissen lassen, vielleicht willst Du es korrigieren. Beste Grüße, --Marsupium (talk) 13:47, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ich versuche es zu korrigieren, wenn ich in Quickstatements Stapel hochladen kann. Ich habe eine Zuordnung von Staat zu Beschreibung. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 13:56, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ersetzen von bestehenden Beschreibungen

Hallo Hogü-456, würde es dir was ausmachen, dich bei Batch-Prozessen auf jene Einträge zu beschränken, die noch keine deutschsprachige Beschreibung haben? Eine existierende Beschreibung wie "Bergkapelle auf dem Dachstein nahe der Simonyhütte, erbaut 1913" durch so was banales wie "Kirchengebäude in Österreich" zu ersetzen, halte ich für kontraproduktiv. --AStiasny (talk) 19:52, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Da stimme ich dir zu. Ich habe da heute vermutlich bei den Ergebnissen der Abfrage, nicht die Ergebnisse mit existierender Beschreibung entfernt. Ich setze den Stapel zurück und versuche dann die Beschreibung für die Kirchengebäude ohne Beschreibung zu ergänzen und dann vielleicht auch mit Ortsangabe. Dafür habe ich eine Abfrage, die ich auf meiner Benutzerseite verlinkt habe und die nur Ergebnisse ohne deutsche Beschreibung anzeigt. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 20:12, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

German name for the Philippines

The correct name of the country in German is "Philippinen" (one L two Ps) and not "Phillipinen". I think this affects all of your edits for the country such as the following: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?diff=1020776543 --seav (talk) 09:23, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Seav,

thank you for this information. I try to correct it. This is a mistake and I make a query and look where I find den word and try to solve it.-- Hogü-456 (talk) 14:05, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Streets in the Netherlands

Thanks for adding German descriptions. Coud you please don't just add Innerortsstraße in den Niederlanden, but also add the municipality in the description? Not sure what is common in German, but you probably want to copy the Dutch label to either the German label or the alias. Multichill (talk) 10:22, 12 October 2019 (UTC) Hello Multichill,[reply]

you are right, that the municipality should be in the Description. I had yesterday a run time error when I selected the Municipality within the Query. Next time I dont add something like that when I get not the data in the right detailed quality as needed. I look how I can get them and then add the description and the name of the street as a Label or maybe as an Alias. I think that a Street name is something what is not different in other languages. So thank you for the information. I often have run time errors at the query service when searching for items without a German description when there are a lot of items. Do you think it is possible to create a list with all items of a specific country and the Statements of the items. I think that would help people get the information they need without a run time error. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 11:22, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You could split it out per province, see for example https://w.wiki/9x4 . That won't time out.

If you're updating anyway, I think it's better to use "Straße" instead of "Innerortsstraße". We basically called everything a street (also rural roads, squares, etc.), de:Innerortsstraße seems to be much more specific. Multichill (talk) 11:33, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Gemälde von QXXXXXX

Hi,

On your last batch you created some bad German descriptions like « Gemälde von Q10298146 » on Vista de Ouro Preto (Q62092146) when the creator didn't have a name in German. Looking more into it, the problem seems to have occured in the past also, this query https://w.wiki/B9Y says there is 7953 items about painting and with a label in german starting by "Gemälde von Q" (sadly, the query times out when, I try to display them :/ ).

Could you take a look and correct this if possible?

Cheers, VIGNERON (talk) 17:29, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the Information. I try to correct it and look where the mistake happened in preparing the data for upload. Is it possible to get the data I added to QuickStatements as a List. I think this were a easy way to correct the thing. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 17:34, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your (mostly) good work and good luck for fixing these mistakes (I do similar errors so I know how hard it can be). Cheers, VIGNERON (talk) 19:03, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In cases like this one it also went wrong. I just ran https://w.wiki/Ejn and it's almost 7000 paintings affected by this so that should keep you busy. Probably easiest to extract the English description ("painting by <someone>") and overwrite the German description based on that. Multichill (talk) 14:58, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What is[3] wrong here. I look for the creator Label and dont get it. I only see the Q-Number but not the Label. I remove the descriptions now and then run a query to find the creators of the paintings to add them. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 15:18, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The "?UrheberLabel" is just an empty field, you never set it in the query. Quite a few painters haven't matched to creators yet. That's always work in progress to create missing painters. Best to only add descriptions to paintings for which the creator is known. Multichill (talk) 16:34, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please show me how I need to change the Query that I see the creator. I thougt that what I have in the Point after SELECT ist what I get as a result if something is found. I mean the query after you get to with this link [4]. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 19:19, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Like https://w.wiki/EoL ? Multichill (talk) 18:01, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the help. The qery works. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 18:34, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

QS batches "running" but not really

The current incarnation of QS is said to only run two batches per user at a time, so having four "running" simultaneously appears to be pointless. I suspect (having run into a similar situation previously) that having four batches running has also led to one of my batches, even if it is the only one of mine being queued at the moment, being stalled for a while. Could you try "running" at most two at a time (i.e. stopping the other two you have queued at the moment)? Thanks! Mahir256 (talk) 00:19, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mahir, thank you for the information. I live in Germany and so I read it now first. Maybe there is a adminstrator who can stop batches when it is needed. I try to run only two now at the same time. Where can I find this information that there are only two batches per user. I dont have a problem with it. But I think it should be changed. Are there plans to improve QuickStatements that it is possible to run more batches at the same time. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 13:49, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Munca (Q31531141)

Hallo Hogü-456, kannst du mal einen Blick auf Munca (Q31531141) werfen? Soweit ich das sehe, warst du der erste Nicht-Bot, der etwas mit dem Item getan hat. Ich habe keinen Ort Munca gefunden, etwa auf http://www.geopedia.si/lite.jsp. Ich halte das für einen OCR Fehler und eine Verwechslung mit dem nahegelegenen Mlinca / Mlinzasattel (Mlinca (Q21866113)) (http://www.geopedia.si/lite.jsp#T105_F1173:8792_x423442_y149896_s15_b4). 'li' als 'u' gelesen. Was meinst du? Was machen wir mit Munca (Q31531141)? lg --Herzi Pinki (talk) 08:25, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ja das kann sein, dass da ein OCR-Fehler vorliegt, der zu diesem Eintrag geführt hat. Das Datenobjekt wird dann denke ich gelöscht. Unter Wikidata:Requests_for_deletions kann die Anfrage gestellt werden. Die Quelle war ja nur Geonames und wie da dieser Eintrag angelegt wurde weiß ich nicht so genau. Wo ich noch nicht sicher bin ist wegen der Höhenangabe, diese weicht ja von dem Mlinzasattel ab. --Hogü-456 (talk) 14:57, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ich scheitere regelmäßig beim Löschenlassen. Es ist so erniedrigend. Irgendwer meint immer, das sei alles zu behalten. Wir modellieren auch die falsche Realität von Geonames. Daher ist es mir lieber, ich kann den Eintrag verbiegen. Aber ohne ganz sicher zu sein, ... lg --Herzi Pinki (talk) 15:14, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

wrong description

Hi, this was really wrong, how did you go from Canada to Kongo? Please fix and revert --Hannes Röst (talk) 19:05, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure what went wrong there. One possibility is that I had a formula in the Spreadsheet and instead of the Formula I used then a fix value. I try to correct it. --Hogü-456 (talk) 19:13, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The formula went to the false cell. This is from my view the reason for the wrong descriptions. I tried to avoid that so it should not happen again. --Hogü-456 (talk) 20:09, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! --Hannes Röst (talk) 21:04, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Indien?

Descriptions of scientific articles

Hello,

I can see you are running a job with Quickstatements adding German descriptions of scientific articles (wissenschaftliche Artikel batch #46746). It is, in my opinion, quite helpful to provide publication dates in the descriptions.

Could you please re-run the job with the Polish language descriptions ? I can provide you with suitable descriptions or alternatively I can do it myself if you can send me the German input to Quickstatements.

All the best,
Kpjas (talk) 12:45, 20 December 2020 (UTC) Hello Kpjas,[reply]

it is good if the descriptions help you. There are a lot of scientific articles in Wikidata the number without a Polish Lanugage description you can find here [5]and I use the following Query [6] to find the articles without a description in a specific language, defined in the query. I made a query to get all scientific journals and since a few months I select every day a few of the journals and look which articles published in that journals dont have a description in the specific language. You can find the file I use for data preparation here. [7] The file is called Datenaufbereitung wissenschaftliche Artikel.ods I hope that it is possible to access it in that way. If you tell me how the description should look like I can help you changing the file, so that it is possible for Polish descriptions. It is not possible to edit this File in PAWS. Maybe it is possible in a CSV-File. In LibreOffice it is possible to save Formulas in CSV-Files. I dont know how other Spreadsheet programs show content that could be a formula in a CSV-File. --Hogü-456 (talk) 13:51, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information.Can I access to see your working file " Artikel.ods" so that it will be helpful for me to prepare missing description for working language. It will be good if I can see you cvs file since i use CSV to add labels. Meanwhile I couldnt find anything from here. [8]- --Akbarali (talk) 06:23, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[WMF Board of Trustees - Call for feedback: Community Board seats] Meetings with the Wikidata community

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees is organizing a call for feedback about community selection processes between February 1 and March 14. While the Wikimedia Foundation and the movement have grown about five times in the past ten years, the Board’s structure and processes have remained basically the same. As the Board is designed today, we have a problem of capacity, performance, and lack of representation of the movement’s diversity. Our current processes to select individual volunteer and affiliate seats have some limitations. Direct elections tend to favor candidates from the leading language communities, regardless of how relevant their skills and experience might be in serving as a Board member, or contributing to the ability of the Board to perform its specific responsibilities. It is also a fact that the current processes have favored volunteers from North America and Western Europe. In the upcoming months, we need to renew three community seats and appoint three more community members in the new seats. This call for feedback is to see what processes can we all collaboratively design to promote and choose candidates that represent our movement and are prepared with the experience, skills, and insight to perform as trustees?

In this regard, two rounds of feedback meetings are being hosted to collect feedback from the Wikidata community. Two rounds are being hosted with the same agenda, to accomodate people from various time zones across the globe. We will be discussing ideas proposed by the Board and the community to address the above mentioned problems. Please sign-up according to whatever is most comfortable to you. You are welcome to participate in both as well!

Round 1 - Feb 24, 4:00 pm UTC
Round 2 - Mar 3, 4:00 am UTC
Sign-up and meeting details: Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees/Call for feedback: Community Board seats/Conversations/Wikidata

Also, please share this with other volunteers who might be interested in this. Let me know if you have any questions. KCVelaga (WMF), 14:32, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- The call for candidates for 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board elections has begun on June 9. The last date to apply is June 29, 2021.
- Since the beginning of the month, phabricator tickets about language codes (and names of languages) were reviewed and triaged to better reflect their content and current status. Some work was done to better identify the steps for such changes, highlight and address bottlenecks and system issues. Patches for a few codes were contributed and are being released. Phabricator "Language codes" workboard provides an overview, phab:T284856 attempts to identify maintenance steps and phab:T284276 determine turn-around times. phab:T284808 should finally close a gap in termbox language handeling. A way to better address some or all aspects of changes of language codes applicable to Wikipedia editions still needs to be found. Don't hesitate to request the addition or update of language names (e.g. the name of Dutch in Danish) or missing language codes, notably for monolingual strings (see Help:Monolingual text languages).

- Improved documentation of the usage tracking aspects in API help pages. Usage tracking is an internal mechanism to track which article on Wikipedia etc uses which data from an Item on Wikidata. (phab:T283040)
- Language codes for monolingual strings "gsw-fr", "ykg", "wya", "osa-latn" were made available: Alsatian, Tundra Yukaghir, Wendat, Osage (phab:T262922, phab:T252198, phab:T283364, phab:T265297)

That is Hausa in Arabic script, Sumerian in cuneiform and Latin-script, German Sign Language, Klingon in pIqaD and Latin script, British Sign Language, Paiwan and Middle English. (phab:T282512, phab:T279557)
- It was determined that language codes can be activated for Wikidata while being blocked for use on Incubator (phab:T273705), this to avoid projects such as a "British English Wikipedia"
- Language code "es-419" for Latin American Spanish has been available for labels and descriptions for quite some time (phab:T230786)
- A possibly confusing Russian mis-translation of the name of the language code for "multiple languages" (mul) is being reviewed (phab:T245927)

Call for participation in a task-based online experiment

Dear Hogu-456,

I hope you are doing good,

I am Kholoud, a researcher at King's College London, and I work on a project as part of my PhD research, in which I have developed a personalised recommender system that suggests Wikidata items for the editors based on their past edits. I am collaborating on this project with Elena Simperl and Miaojing Shi.

I am inviting you to a task-based study that will ask you to provide your judgments about the relevance of the items suggested by our system based on your previous edits. Participation is completely voluntary, and your cooperation will enable us to evaluate the accuracy of the recommender system in suggesting relevant items to you. We will analyse the results anonymised, and they will be published to a research venue.

The study will start in late January 2022 or early February 2022, and it should take no more than 30 minutes.

If you agree to participate in this study, please either contact me at kholoud.alghamdi@kcl.ac.uk or use this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSees9WzFXR0Vl3mHLkZCaByeFHRrBy51kBca53euq9nt3XWog/viewform?usp=sf_link I will contact you with the link to start the study.

For more information about the study, please read this post: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Kholoudsaa In case you have further questions or require more information, don't hesitate to contact me through my mentioned email.

Thank you for considering taking part in this research.

Regards

Quickstatement Tips

Appreciating your efforts, It will be highly useful if you can share the method you follow to generate quick statements as bulk. Akbarali (talk) 19:42, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you send me a Wikimail I can send you the Spreadsheet I used to create the Descriptions for scientific Articles and if you want I can show you the way I am doing it in a video call.

- Check out a similar tool: wiki-atlas

Other Noteworthy Stuff
- Wikidata:Wwwyzzerdd got an update where it now will try to predict good statements to add to Wikidata from Wikipedia articles.
- Writing SPARQL queries can be very challenging. You can find inspiration by browsing and searching in this dataset of 2,400 queries collected from Wikidata. (source)
- The French Wikipedia now uses a Wikidata-based list for the pages on specific dates, without relying on ListeriaBot. Who was born on a December 19th and has an article in French? You now can have the answer thanks to a Wikidata query by going to the page 1er décembre on frwiki and clicking on the infobox link "Naissances du jour". This is a link to a Wikidata list provided by the query service. The query is generated by the template fr:Modèle:Naissances un jour du mois. This follows another such template used to find all persons with a certain surname on frwiki, used on all surnames pages and on some disambiguation pages, fr:Modèle:Liste des personnes ou_personnages par prénom. For the surname Victor (Q539581) (view with Reasonator, SQID) this generates on the page w:fr:Victor_(prénom) a query such as this one.
- Wikidata now has more than 100,000,000 items! Exactly which item was the 100 millionth is unknown as of writing, but there are some clues for anyone who wants to dig into it.

Wikidata weekly summary #557

Events
- A citation hunt program was organized for secondary school students at IIS School in Dubai as part of the 74th Republic Day celebration of India. 16 students participated, with different mother tongues and from different states of India living as expatriates in Dubai. The goal was to increase references for Wikidata statements based on research. The students were introduced to the importance of protecting India's history on the internet, and were taught how to edit Wikipedia and Wikidata. They were given a special event page on Wikidata with instructions and a list of Wikidata items to add citations to, and they searched for references in their textbooks and search engines to add to the Wikidata items.More details are given here.
- Next Linked Data for Libraries LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group Working Hour January 30, 2023: The #1Lib1Ref campaign is afoot, so we will be working on adding references to Wikidata statements. We'll have some data for you to work with, but you're welcome to bring your own. We'll be mainly working with adding webpages as sources, but if you want to get experience using books or articles as sources, we recommend bringing some to the session to use as references for Wikidata items you have identified.

Press, articles, blog posts, videos
- Blogs
  - In this week's update by the Abstract Wikipedia and Wikifunctions team, they are asking where the right place to store and maintain Abstract Wikipedia should be. All of the options involve Wikidata to some extent, some more, some less. If the content of Abstract Wikipedia is hosted on Wikidata, that would lead to an increased scope for the Wikidata community (and likely more contributors joining). But that is a decision the Wikidata community needs to be involved in as well. (Also, if you are interested, the Abstract Wikipedia updates might be worth to follow.)
- Papers
  - Investigating the potential of the semantic web for education: Exploring Wikidata as a learning platform
- Videos
- Notebooks
  - Country diversity of external links domain names in Wikipedia in French an analysis of all domain names in Wikipedia in French by country associated to the website.

Tool of the week
- User:BrokenSegue/shorten.js makes statements boxes for a particular property scrollable if it is too tall.

Wikidata weekly summary #567

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

Discussions
- New requests for permissions/Bot:
  - RPI2026F1Bot 7 (Add start time (P580) as qualifiers to subreddit (P3984))
  - BotFunast (Task: The bot is already operational in the Tachelhit Wikipedia. One of its main tasks is editing template tags and categories, and creating new ones when necessary, based on a csv database (that you can find in github) . When adding new pages though, a common problem is to link those to Wikidata. This can be unfeasible by hand in a reasonable amount of time, when hundreds of pages, e.g. categories, are added at once. The idea is to have the bot approved for Wikidata, so it can link the pages to their counterparts in other languages automatically.)

Welcome to the 600th Wikidata Weekly Summary!

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

Welcome to the 600th Weekly Summary!

Lydia initiated the weekly newsletter at the start of the Wikidata project, before it even went live, to keep the community in the loop about the developments, the new projects and tools. Léa carried on the newsletter in 2016 and then it was my turn in 2020. The newsletter has been going strong for eleven years, with its content powered by the community, and delivered every week without fail. Thank you to everyone who helped fill in the different sections of the Weekly Summary thus far ❤️ --Mohammed

Item #600 Ichiro Suzuki; Property #600 is Wine AppDB ID; and Lexeme #600 is the Japanese conjugation だから
- 600 in the multiverse: as a year (another year), a number, a category, a track gauge, a jet, an asteroid, an auto race, a genetic element, a death, a birth, a TV serie, a car, a galaxy, a sport discipline, a radio telescope, an engine, a polygon, a film, a GPU, a photolithography, and many more…
Timeline of places when they had a population of exactly 600
Map of things at an altitude of 600 m
List of items with an external ID equal to 600
- Wikidata was 600 days old on Wednesday 11 June 2014. It will be 600 weeks old on Monday 9 August 2027
WikidataCon happened over the weekend
- Birthday wishes from the community, and a special note from the Wikidata development team at Wikimedia Deutschland below:

Today it is time to celebrate Wikidata’s 11th birthday. Let’s take a look back at the past year and what’s coming.
Wikidata’s world - map of Wikidata Items with a geocoordinate

There are now over 12.200 amazing people who are actively editing on Wikidata - 3000 of them even making more than 100 edits a month ♥️ Thank you! Without you Wikidata wouldn’t be what it is today. Thank you for helping give more people more access to more knowledge every single day. This year also marks the year we can welcome a new sister to the Wikimedia projects: Wikifunctions is live, letting us all geek out on functions in anticipation of Abstract Wikipedia. Another big milestone was Wikibase Cloud coming out of private beta. Now you can more easily run your own Wikibase and collect and maintain data that doesn’t fit into Wikidata. 2023 was also the year when the efforts of Wikidata editors were recognized across the Wikimedia movement with the awarding of the Wikimedian of the Year award to Taufik Rosman and the Wikimedia Laureate award to Siobhan Leachman. Over the coming year I want us to find ways how we can bring more people, who are already editing a bit here and there, closer to the community and help them find their place in our community. If you are one of them and have not found your place yet, check out a WikiProject related to your interests. Wikidata has something for everyone 😉
Wikidata now has over 106 Million Items and nearly 1.2 Million Lexemes. We are closing in on 2 Billion edits, making about 20 Million edits per month. All this content is used to create useful, quirky, educational or just fun applications that wouldn’t be possible without Wikidata and all the work you put into it. Check out Notable People for example. Over the coming year we want to make that even easier by building better APIs, lessening the strain on the Query Service, doing more outreach to developers as well as making our data more usable by ironing out ontology issues. In addition there will be increased focus on improving how the other Wikimedia projects integrate Wikidata. With the opening up of Wikibase Cloud we will hopefully also see many new Wikibases pop up that cover more specialized data or be used as playgrounds to prepare data for Wikidata. I am looking forward to a growing Wikibase Ecosystem and excited about more Linked Open Data becoming available to the world, with Wikidata being an entryway to it all.
And last but not least: if you want to learn a bit more about the history and backstory of Wikidata, then you might like Wikidata: The Making Of by Denny, Markus and me.
Lydia for the development team

Documentation of the sessions is currently ongoing with the slides getting uploaded on Wikimedia Commons here. The Livestream and replay of the conference per day are already available on YouTube. The individual sections are here.

  - WikiProject Interwiki - The goal of this project is linking Wikidata items with wiki articles outside of the Wikimedia ecosystem. Niche wikis frequently offer more in-depth content compared to general online dictionary articles, although their quality can vary significantly.
  - WikiProject SrpKor - The main aim of this project is building Wikidata entities for the novels from SrpKor: Corpus of the contemporary Serbian language.
  - WikiProject Manors - Collecting data about manor house (Q879050) as part of manor (Q2066754) or manor estate (Q2116450) as part of the Research Centre for manors in the baltic sea region (Q117756751).
  - WikiProject Echinodermata - A repository for information pertaining to the NSF Grant Echinoderm Project.

Development

Tool of the week
- Cersei - is a tool designed for importing or scraping data from various third-party sources, using source-specific Python code. It can use a "headless browser" to scrape complicated websites that rely on eg JavaScript to navigate. It can therefore access data sources that can not be accessed via eg Mix'n'match. The data from sources can be updated regularly, either for everything, or just changed entries (if the source has a "recent changes" equivalent).
- Wikidata:Zotero/Cita - is a Wikidata addon for Zotero that adds citations (i.e., what other items an item cites) metadata support to this open source reference management software, using cites work (P2860) information available from Wikidata, and enabling users to easily contribute missing data.

Wikidata weekly summary #611

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

Discussions

New request for comments: Community request for the development team to access inverse properties on client wikis. (Summary: We currently cannot access inverse property values on Wikipedia. This can be a data management issue on Wikipedia as we must always ask ourself if we must introduce an inverse property for cases where we need them. So I think it’s useful to gather the usecases community would want and draft a request for an API to the devteam to do that.)

Events

Upcoming: The next Wikidata+Wikibase office hours will take place on Wednesday, 16:00 UTC on Wednesday, 17th January 2024 (18:00 Berlin time) in the Wikidata Telegram group.

- Go-ahead for Wikidata Project of GLAM institutions from Baden-Württemberg --> The GLAM-BW project, under "GLAM goes OpenData," connects major collections in Baden-Württemberg, focusing on the württembergische Kunstkammer. With over 3,000 objects, the project integrates information on collectors, histories, and objects into a knowledge graph for semantic searches, contributing to the broader realm of linked open data, akin to Wikidata.
- Swiss GLAM Programme --> Wikimedia CH imported the Museum of Natural History of Neuchâtel's urchin fossil casts to Wikimedia Commons, connecting structured data on Wikidata. The project involved data cleaning, adding missing elements, and file imports via OpenRefine, highlighting seamless integration between Wikidata and Commons.

Straßen in den Niederlanden

Hallo Hogü-456, vor einigen Jahren hattest du viele Straßen in den Niederlanden mit einer deutschen Beschreibung versehen, vielen Dank. Könntest du das noch einmal so ähnlich machen und auch die niederländische Bezeichnung in die deutsche kopieren? Sonst sieht man als deutscher Nutzer bei der Wikidata-Funktion "In der Nähe" weiterhin nur die kryptische Q... Bezeichnung. Zum Beispiel Driehovenlaan (Q19056160). -- Gerd Fahrenhorst (talk) 19:14, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo Gerd, das kann ich versuchen. Wenn ich bei der Abfrage keinen Timeout erhalte, dann kann ich das machen. Hogü-456 (talk) 19:37, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wäre super. -- Gerd Fahrenhorst (talk) 20:09, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo Gerd, kannst du mir helfen eine Abfrage zu erstellen, mit der ich die Straßen ohne deutschsprachiges Label finden kann. Ich habe eine Abfrage erstellt die vermutlich nicht korrekt war. Hogü-456 (talk) 20:14, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ich schaue die Tage mal ob ich so eine Abfrage hinkriege. -- Gerd Fahrenhorst (talk) 20:38, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wie ich sehe, bist du dabei. Super! Dankeschön! -- Gerd Fahrenhorst (talk) 05:53, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerd Fahrenhorst Ich habe jetzt heute nochmal eine Abfrage gemacht und jetzt habe ich eine Liste mit allen Items die noch kein deutschsprachiges Label haben. Davon habe ich jetzt etwa die Hälfte in QuickStatements eingegeben. Morgen laufen dann noch zwei weitere Stapel, wenn ich dran denke diese dann hochzuladen. Danach haben dann alle ein deutschsprachiges Label für Innerortsstrassen in den Niederlanden ergänzt. Wenn du noch für andere Objekte das Label auch auf deutsch sehen willst, dann kann ich das versuchen ob es möglich ist, dass mithilfe von QuickStatements basierend auf Ergebnissen von Abfragen zu ergänzen.

Wikidata periodic table - Tool by User:Ricordisamoa, to browse all chemical elements available on Wikidata, with atomic number, chemical symbol, and localized label. It also includes two charts of the nuclides, with links to every isotope in Wikidata, colored by half-life or decay mode.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

A new UI mode is available for the online validator for EntitySchemas. It represents validation reports as a table rather than a very long string, and replaces most links with hyperlinks with some of the text behind them; making them easier to read. Currently being tested at https://shex-validator.toolforge.org/packages/shex-webapp/doc/shex-simple-improved.html, we are looking for participants to evaluate this tool. Some experience with editing Wikidata is appreciated, but no experience working with Schemas is required. If you are interested, you can sign up here. We hope to begin interviews around May 13.

+* A new UI mode is available for the online validator for EntitySchemas. It represents validation reports as a table rather than a very long string, and replaces most links with hyperlinks with some of the text behind them; making them easier to read. Currently being tested at https://shex-validator.toolforge.org/packages/shex-webapp/doc/shex-simple-improved.html, we are looking for participants to evaluate this tool. Some experience with editing Wikidata is appreciated, but no experience working with Schemas is required. If you are interested, you can sign up [https://datumprikker.nl/pwx27abv4daqq4vr here].

Abstract: "The contribution draws a history of the presence of the identifiers of the authority records of the [[:d:Q72283418|URBE network libraries]] in Wikidata, and of the collaboration that has evolved since 2020 between the Wikidata community and the cataloguers of the URBE network libraries, relating to the harmonisation of these authority records with Wikidata and the improvement of the quality of the respective data. The first part of the contribution traces the main stages of collaboration in chronological order, while the second part of the contribution presents the main areas in which the collaboration materialises (or can materialise) in the daily authority work carried out by cataloguers in theme-based groupings".
