Motivation

[edit]

In de:WP we have lists of all Wiener Gemeindebauten, e.g. de:Liste der Wiener Gemeindebauten/Margareten and for some prominent objects even individual articles, e.g. de:Reumannhof. The requested ID allows to link to the external descriptions of Wiener Wohnen, which contain quite useful information about each building (architecture, history, associated works of art). In Commons there is template Wiener Wohnen, which can be transformed to use the QID instead of the external ID. In general we can replace the external ID by a QID, which gives us more flexibility when the external IDs are changed. Herzi Pinki (talk) 22:53, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support I've updated the examples with the formatting URL you provided, to actually link to the pages. Great resource! --Jneubert (talk) 14:37, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support It's a great resource of information for these public housing buildings in Vienna! --Rosso Robot (talk) 16:14, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Questions posed Still totally in favour, I just want to share a finding: Today, I looked a bit at the data of this WienerWohnen Database and there is also a PDF data sheet available. E.g. Karl-Marx-Hof's HTML entry and PDF entry. The PDF seems to have an ID as well, which is different to the HTML one. The thing is, that the PDF data sheet is linked with wien.gv.at/Stadtplan and as it seems, not every Gemeindebau has a HTML entry as I found out with e.g Pillergasse 6, which is managed externally. I don't know if this is the reason and how many of these cases are existing, I just wanted to bring it up. Thanks for considering! LG, --Rosso Robot (talk) 17:35, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      I know about the pdf, but preferred html when chosing the number. The contents are mainly (as far as I checked) the same. Did not stumble across cases like Pillergasse 6. I also did not find a mapping from one number to the other. Currently everything is based on the html-number (in lists, in templates), thus the proposal is also based on this number. I could not find the map link in the pdf, it is only in the html version. Another reason to chose the later. --Herzi Pinki (talk) 06:22, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Herzi Pinki: I totally agree with everything you said. I found this case and wanted to bring it up, as I thought it's worth for consideration, but I also think that the html-link is the much better solution in this case, as everything is built on it here already. Thanks a lot for summarising the Pros (Helped me a lot to form my opinion) and your effort in general! --Rosso Robot (talk) 07:13, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Herzi Pinki, Jneubert, Rosso Robot, YULdigitalpreservation, Trade: Wiener Wohnen ID (P8231) is available. Pamputt (talk) 08:53, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Pamputt: Hi, Thanks a lot for creating this ID. But something doesn't work with the link (as you can see with the examples you included). Maybe the code at commons:Template:Wiener Wohnen is helpful to fix this. Nevertheless, thanks a lot and kind regards, --Rosso Robot (talk) 10:40, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Rosso Robot: yes, I saw it. I let a message here about this problem. So far, I do not have any idea on how to fix that. So, if any of you have some ideas, please try to modify directly the P1630 property. Pamputt (talk) 10:58, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Rosso Robot, Pamputt: as far as I do understand: formatter https://www.wienerwohnen.at/hof/$​1/$1.html does not work, as it needs double replacement of $1 (unnecessary limitation!). Found an alternative equivalent url 'https://www.wienerwohnen.at/hof/$​1/ but this also does not match the url-Formatter https?:\/\/.*\$1.*, which I do not understand. could this be a caching problem? --Herzi Pinki (talk) 11:48, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
no idea, what I did, but after some to and fro it seems to work now. --Herzi Pinki (talk) 14:23, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Haha, wow, really, it works! The only thing is, that there is some work to do now ;)! Great stuff everyone, thanks a lot. All the best, --Rosso Robot (talk) 14:35, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
