Zedler label

[edit]

Hi Jan, could you improve the labels that your bot gives Zedler articles that contain braces? Thanks, --Arnd (talk) 07:13, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Aschroet Hi, can you give me some example diff how to change it? U sually I use pywikibot'S newitem.py and I'm afraid this is not bug but feature (phab:T200399) JAn Dudík (talk) 09:46, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, then it is so. Zedler's bracket lemmata seem not to fit here. --Arnd (talk) 10:37, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jazyk položky Wikidat

[edit]

Potřebuji poradit. Při vytvoření nové položky v češtině se mi v poli "Všechny zadané jazyky" automaticky nabídne "arabština" místo očekávané "angličtiny" (namátkově příkad Q130478706). Bohužel nevím, jak tam mám angličtinu dostat jinak než tak, že se odhlásím a zadám ji jako nepřihlášená. Ještě mě napadlo, jestli není nutný název v angličtině již v prvopočátku při tvorbě nové položky. Díky moc. Alena Pokorná (talk) 10:39, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Alena Pokorná Systém by měl nabízet primárně ty jazyky, které má uživatel zadané na své uživatelské stránce. Dovolil jsem si přidat {{#babel:cs|en-1|sk-1|mul-0}}, teď by se měly automaticky nabízet eště angličtina, slovenština a mnoho jazyků. Pomohlo? JAn Dudík (talk) 19:27, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    • Next Linked Data for Libraries LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group session 15 October, 2024: We have our next LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group Session on Tuesday, 15 October, 2024 at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 16:00 UTC / 6pm CEST (Time zone converter). https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1729008000 Christa Strickler will be our first Project Series lead with her joint project with the Wikidata Religion & Theology Community of Practice to contribute biographical data to Wikidata from the IRFA database https://irfa.paris/en/en-learn-about-a-missionary/ using the Mix’n’Match tool. We are excited to learn more about this project, provide a forum for discussion and shared learning, and lend a hand while building new skills. Event page: [1]

Tool of the week

  • Elemwala (এলেমওয়ালা) (https://elemwala.toolforge.org): is a proof-of-concept interface that allows you to input abstract content and get natural language text in a given output language. There may well be errors with particular inputs, and the text may not be quite as natural as you might expect, but that's where your improvements to your language's lexemes, other Wikidata items, and the tool's source code come in!
  • mlscores: Tool for calculating multilinguality score of Wikidata items (including properties). E.g. for Wikidata (Q2013), the scores are - en: 99.66%, fr: 89.49%, es: 84.07%, pt: 68.47%. For instance of (P31), the scores are - en: 99.86%, fr: 87.12%, es: 80.83%, pt: 61.37%.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

  • Launch of WikiProject Deprecate P642: The goal of this project is to prepare for deprecation, and eventual removal, of the property of (P642). Currently, of (P642) is labeled as "being deprecated", meaning its use is still allowed, but discouraged. From a peak of around 900,000 uses, the property now has around 700,000 uses (see status here). Our goal is to reduce that as much as possible in a systematic way, while ensuring that appropriate properties exist to replace all valid uses of of (P642). The latter is key to officially deprecating the property. Before removing the property, we want to get as close to zero uses as possible.

  • REST API: We finished the work on language fallback support in the REST API (phab:T371605)

Problems with connection

[edit]

The sentence connected via this link is not a description of the book Middlemarch, but rather a sentence about the fictional person named. This is the second time the links have been added. Please prevent it from happening a third time. --EncycloPetey (talk) 18:07, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Likewise for this edit and the novel Adam Bede. --EncycloPetey (talk) 18:08, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The root problem is that described by source (P1343) and main subject (P921) are not equivalent. --EncycloPetey (talk) 18:10, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@EncycloPetey These batches have usually thousands of edits and is not possible to check them. For preventing adding such cases you can
1) remove (or repair) wrong link from both en.wikiosurce and WD item about encyclopedic entry
or
2) mark it as deprecated.
Or, you can find better queries. JAn Dudík (talk) 20:34, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is not on en.wikisource; it is in the misinterpretation of that information. A link on wikisource to wikipedia does not imply that the link is automatically the "main topic". Thus the error is in the automated interpretation of connections, and much be fixed that way.
Is bot user error a reason for deprecation? --EncycloPetey (talk) 20:43, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@EncycloPetey When in one entry P921 IS main topic and in second of the same encyclopedia is NOT, how to recognize it? In these cases is necessary mark them (e.g. deprecating) JAn Dudík (talk) 13:23, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And what is the reason I give for deprecation? How do I indicate with that field that data was misinterpreted by an automated process even after the bot operator was informed? --EncycloPetey (talk) 16:11, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see now that you added P921 to one entry, then used that fact to justify adding the other property. The original edits were also in error. --EncycloPetey (talk) 16:17, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Open request for adminship: Addshore (RfP scheduled to end after 23 October 2024 18:03 UTC)
  • New requests for permissions/Bot:
    • CarbonBot - (1) Add default mul labels to given and family names when the item has an existing default label with a mul language (2) Remove duplicated aliases matching the items mul label, when the item has a native label in with a mul language. As mul has not been fully adopted, a limited of aliases would be modified each day to ensure existing workflows are not disrupted. It is expected that these tasks will apply to roughly 800,000 given and family names.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

  • A small project on benchmarking query engine performance on useful Wikidata queries is asking for queries from the Wikidata user community to potentially be part of the benchmark. If you are a user of any Wikidata SPARQL service please send queries that you find useful to Peter F. Patel-Schneider. Say what you used the query for and whether you would like to be noted as the source of the query. Queries that take considerable time or time out are especially welcome, particularly if the query caused you to switch from the official Wikidata Query Service to some other service. More information about the project is available in Wikidata:Scaling_Wikidata/Benchmarking.
