Update the translation

Hi Minorax,

Can you help me to update this template translation. Thank you! Biyanto R (talk) 16:27, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Done. --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 16:37, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Template:User ja-1

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi! I'm looking to add some more language userboxes for the purpose of Babel, but the deletion log on this page makes me wonder whether I should or not. Also because it was quite recent. Was this an old form of userbox and was deleted in place for Babel? JustThatNerdyNerd (talk) 21:44, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Yes. It contains the same content as {{#babel:ja-1}}. --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 03:49, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

DateT

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi. Thank you for your work converting dates to DateT. I have noticed a mistake in that though, Special:Diff/18869207/26451432 — here you convert July 15th into January 1st for midpoint date. Perhaps you could use some kind of script so that such manual mistakes would not be possible (I am thinking something semiautomatic, that will convert stuff when you select it)? I can well imagine this being quite a tiresome task to be doing manually. --Base (talk) 04:30, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Ah. Thanks for catching that. For the script, I don't think it is worthwhile to make one as I'm only doing the conversion as and when I see it. --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 04:34, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

New to bottom

Latest comment: 1 year ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Hi Minorax!

I just saw that you moved my RfA to the bottom. When adding the RfA I followed the procedure outlined in Meta:Requests for adminship#Regular_adminship Step 3: "Please put the newest request on the top". So I think either the info should be changed or the RfA should be put on top again. Count Count (talk) 13:19, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

Ehh, it was done by @Xaosflux: --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 13:20, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
Oops, sorry. Count Count (talk) 13:21, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

Wikidata weekly summary #622

Latest comment: 11 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week. This is the Wikidata summary of the week before 2024-03-11. Translations are available.

Discussions

  • New requests for permissions/Bot: MONA.artpublic.bot (Task: The bot's function is to add information about artists specializing in public artwork in Québec, Canada. The bot will initially only add that an artist's genre of work is public art for a set of known public artists in Québec compiled by MONA Montréal from open data sets.)

Events

  • Upcoming:
    • Next Linked Data for Libraries LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group call April 2, 2024: Come join us for fun data modeling discussions! We'll create breakout rooms in Zoom for people to discuss 4 examples of cultural heritage items to contribute to Wikidata. Each group will choose categories, brainstorm properties for basic and enhanced description, and discuss challenges. Then we'll have some quality time at the end to compare notes and discuss our processes! Agenda
    • Wikidata Leveling Up Days, everything you need to know about Wikidata: 5, 6, 7, 12, 13 and 14 April. The event is taking place online and the videos are already available on the program page.

Press, articles, blog posts, videos

  • Blogs: Galerij der Groten op Wikidata (Dutch) - Wikimedia NL hosted an Edit-A-Thon on the Baroeg project, the task was to document and archive on Wikidata all of the bands that have played at the live music venue, the idea born from a stack of band flyers and posters hung in the bathroom(!) Join the next one Sunday April 14th.
  • Papers: Understanding Wikidata - Wikidata is extremely valuable as a data source to supplement, validate and extend existing knowledge bases and applications. To effectively utilize Wikidata in a Semantic Web application, one must understand its design, terminology and correspondence with ontological concepts (especially RDF and OWL). This paper attempts to explain and position this information. (by AWesterinen)
  • Videos
  • Notebooks: Gender differences in the number of sitelinks among members of the European Parliament, a statistical analysis based on Wikidata about the number of sitelinks by gender.

Tool of the week

  • Wikidatalite : Search, browse, and navigate Wikidata items with a mobile-friendly, simplified user interface.
