Allow Redirects to be linked to Wikidata items

Screen shot showing various pop-ups on mouse-over where the target (article for 'private collection') is shown as well as Wikidata options. The "add/WD" is enabled by javascript associated with Listeria lists by Magnus Manske.

It should be possible to link a Wikipedia redirect to a Wikidata item so that Wikipedia users who click on it are greeted with a pop-up which offers two links and states something like this: <redirect title> does not exist on Wikipedia; proceed to <target article of the redirect> or see Wikidata <label of redirect's Q number>. Having such a facility enables us 1) to determine how many incoming redirects to an article are actually discrete items rather than alternate spellings or somesuch, and 2) make it more visible for editors to perceive a "need" for new articles to be created. For large, aggregated concepts such as en:Insurance it would be helpful to know how many incoming links should probably have their own separate articles. Note that this does not require anything from Wikidata, and it refers to the redirect functionality on Wikipedia and sister projects. If someone wants to create the article itself, they click the edit button just like they do today to convert redirects to articles. It would be nice though if the wikidata item is preserved somehow during article creation so that the new article can be added to that Wikidata item. The advantage of this approach is that it is up to the Wikipedian editor to use the facility in a redirect or not. Presumably not all redirects are worthy of Wikidata items and can better be sent directly to the target. Note this is not a solution to the "Bonnie and Clyde" problem also known as Phabricator task T54564.

Automatic search for similar items in Wikidata

In small Wikipedias, where our task force is reduced, we have lots of pages (mainly subtemplates and categories) that are not linked to items in Wikidata. Some of this items (for example, automatic taxonomy subtemplates) can be found in different languages but it's a very hard work to link by hand all of them. As most of them follow the same structure, and many of them have even the same name, maybe a bot could suggest links.

Make it easy to build infoboxes that display information from wikidata

Tracked in Phabricator:
Task T112987

Currently, there is no well-established system across different wikipedias that would help editors to build infoboxes (there is no established Template:Infobox across different wikipedias).

Building an infobox that displays information from wikidata is even more difficult: Building a nice infobox that displays information from wikidata requires modules written in Lua (without that, it is impossible to make wikilinks work properly). It would be nice to have one standard Lua module for this purpose, maintained and stored in one central place (e. g. on meta), without the need for each and every wikipedia to copy this module over and continue to maintain the copy.

Both editors and readers would benefit from a solution. Furthermore, a solution would promote Wikidata, because it would be much easier to use information present on Wikidata on all wikipedias.

Proposed solution: Implement both A and B:

A. Devise a Template:Infobox that is easy to use and that is maintained in a central place.

B. (Perhaps a bit easier than A.) Write a Lua module that formats content from Wikidata properly (e. g. in a Wikipedia article about a city, create a formatted list of the sister cities (cf. d:Property:P190), where each list element is a link to the article about the sister city or, if this wikipedia does not yet have an article about a particular sister city, a link to the Wikidata item about this sister city). Provide this Lua module in a central place where every wikipedia can directly use it.

  • Endorsed Endorsed For now Wikidata has almost no integration with Infoboxes. Scripts are lacking and buggy. Almost no data is used on Wikipedias, which questions importance of Wikidata existence as it's data is of almost no use.

  • Endorsed Endorsed Should allow individual language to insert translations. Yosri (talk) 02:22, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • About the globally stored infobox/module, that all Wikipedias can use without copy-paste part - the idea has been proposed several times (can't say by who or when or where). Some cool Wikidata data retrieving infoboxes, that I'm aware of - this one is fully taken from Wikidata (search for insource:/\{\{[Ii]nfobox - osoba\}\}/ in cswiki), also frwiki has some Lua modules for better Wikidata support - this one, for example. --Edgars2007 (talk) 05:36, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorsed Endorsed UV has a very good idea. I work on cycling (more info here), I produce a very big number of photos, and develop five modules (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). French users now work on Wikidata for a part, but the very big problem is I don't know how translate these modules in the other languages because all is different. It is a major problem in Wikipedia. We work together on Commons and on Wikidata, there is no problem, but we are not able to work together on Wikipedia because everybody has their own templates. I think if we solve that problem, we will permet to develop all smaller Wikipedias. Ans even for big Wikipedias it is interesting, because we have people to enter datas, so it is useless to let user do the same work in different country. And if people don't lost time to enter datas, they will can spend time to write, this is very positive for the project and for our readers. More than infoboxes, we will share list of participating teams and cyclists, classifications, team rosters... it will be very interesting when there will have a change, we will save again a big amount of time. I sometimes discuss with foreign users (like Papuass for .lv, Edgars2007), everybody find the idea as interesting, but very few people is able to play with templates and modules. To conclude, this proposal is very important because it will renew our way to work/contribute. Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick (talk) 10:49, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Endorsed Endorsed--Gbeckmann (talk) 21:37, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • 👍 Like but Oppose Oppose at this time. Some random thoughts gathered from my own experience...
    • Wikidata does not contain all Property information and that should probably be addressed as a high priority 1st.
    • Though a nice idea; however, one size does not fit all (IMHO).
    • The labels in Wikidata for properties might not be useful to produce labels in an infobox if one wants to use a Module to build a complete infobox from scratch.
      • I have seen at least one Wikidata entry with no title or label.
    • The actual data retrieved may not be satisfactory and acceptable for everyone.
    • Accessing Wikidata multiple times to fill in entries of an infobox (multiple template calls for each property) may take a load hit and result in a Lua runtime error.
      • To get to some information one may have to drill down into the Wikidata structure to get the desired data. (to get a currency symbol as an example)
      • One may have also to access multiple Wikidata entities (Objects) to get other desired data as well. (Wikidata entry IDs for sister cities as an example)
    • May need to know the id (Qnnn) if an article is not associated with a Wikidata entry but does in fact have a Wikidata entry.
    • Language translation(s) may be an issue in Wikidata. (Not sure if all languages are incorporated or represented.)
      • In Wikidata use ?setlang=xx in URL to see if other languages exist -- access via a module using mw.language.getContentLanguage(arg1).code
    • Some properties have multiple instances.
      • In some cases, all instances would be relevant (ie. sister cities, bordering countries etc.)
      • Description(s) on the other hand may present a problem. (which one is useful - is it acceptable)
    • There may be code/design changes for wikibase and Wikidata which might result in further issues (are these solid enough?).
    • Use of Unicode characters and internationalisation need to be included in any Module.
    • Sorting of multiple instances and formatting of data output - presents another decision to be made.
    • Accessing a certain or particular data element may be useful (ie. flag, coat of arms, decimal latitude, longitude).
    • Timing of the execution of a template and a module may also present a problem (if other widget/code occur before the actual retrieved data is available). Matroc (talk) 04:55, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Modify Media Viewer to include Wikidata information

From Wikipedia article en:St. Matthew and the Angel I click on the image of the painting and in Media Viewer I see a button called "More Details" which takes me to Commons. There should also be a button in this case for the associated Wikidata item, as both article and image refer to painting item Q9396869. The item has other information than the Commons file or Wikipedia article.

When the Media Viewer is enabled, if a Wikipedia user clicks on a file image, the information shown is summarized from Commons. Though not all Commons images have Wikidata items and this will probably never happen, many images of artworks such as paintings and sculptures have very detailed items on Wikidata that can be offered to the user in his/her native language. For images that are linked with Wikidata items, the user should be offered the "Metadata" button with the WIkidata logo in addition to the "More details" button with Commons logo. If this is enabled, it should also become easier to add a wikidata item number to all images in a Commons category (e.g. artworks have detail images etc) so that whichever file is viewed on Wikipedia, the media viewer will be able to pick up the correct wikidata item for that image even though it is not the "lead image" on Wikidata for that item.

Visibility for quality issues

At Wikidata several reports have been produced that are about quality issues at Wikipedia. They can be anything from likely incorrect data vis a vis Wikidata, missing data or reports on the demise of people. Such lists do not get attention and consequently at Wikidata people indicate that they are not willing to consider the quality of any Wikipedia. Wikipedia is considered a black box and it is not interested in its own quality.

With proper visibility for such reports we may get cooperation going. It will enhance quality in any and all of our projects. There are three things needed:

  • a platform on every Wikidata linked wiki for such issues
  • a mechanism to regularly update the list
  • a workflow for each issue

Whole Infobox from Wikidata

Most of the data are still embedded on the article's infobox, while all the information should be stored and retrived from Wikidata. The approach should be (in any order):

  • write a complete LUA module able to collect any kind of information (not only the easiest ones with one single value)
  • those information should be formatted according to the specific wiki-project standards
  • all the information currently stored in each project should be moved from each specific wiki-project (deleted) and stored in Wikidata
  • the information on wikidata should follow a standard in order to simplify the data collection & formatting

this would avoid data discrepancy between sister projects and between language versions of the same project.

A nice to have would be a pop-up window that allow to change/update any infobox data in Wikidata, without leaving the current wiki project.

I think this is a candidate for merging with this idea. 👍 Like the idea about pop-up window. Something (basic structure) can be taken from this one. JS coders could create the base structure, that can be adapted for each infobox later by non-JS coders (like just filling the form) --Edgars2007 (talk) 05:46, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edgars2007, Helder FYI in Wikivoyage we already use pop-up windows for other purpose.

For example see it:voy:Firenze and click on any gray and small "modifica" link. --Andyrom75 (talk) 11:48, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Information in an Infobox is usually a codified version of the article text. If we transclude the infobox from Wikidata the people who watchlist the article won't know when the infobox changes, and we will have more situations where the infobox contradicts the article text. This is a problem! It could be reduced by amending watchlists so that if you watchlist a page you are informed of changes to its infobox in wikidata.

  13. Oppose Oppose This is a huge project even for a single domain. For example, animal taxoboxes juggle a huge number of data fields (e.g. taxonomy, conservation statuses, fossil periods, maps, selection of synonyms, partial view of lower and higher taxons, citation and notes fields), which are displayed in different ways, and different wiki projects favour different, conflicting authorities for their taxonomy trees (not to mention conflicting or outdated models just on English Wikipedia). Ironing out inconsistencies as well as getting conflicting-but-valid models to live harmoniously in Wikidata and then creating Lua templates to replace the taxobox is all a huge task, and that's just for one domain. Other infoboxes will be simpler, but there will still be many challenges in fitting the infobox data into a clean and appropriate Wikidata format and merging it with the redundant, conflicting, sourceless (or source-unknown) data found across Wikipedias. Automation can only take you so far. So while I support the goal of getting more data into Wikidata, this is more realistically a distant goal than a single project. —Pengo (talk) 22:21, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  14. Comment Comment As I said before: "This is already largely possible: see an example implementation of it at en:South Pole Telescope, through en:Template:Infobox telescope and en:Module:Wikidata. It's still in alpha/beta, though. The main difficulty is finding out which wikidata items need to be added to entries to populate the infobox." Thanks.
