[00:43:59] when using a date property like P813, is it possible to write something like "today", "now" or something similar, instead of typing the full date of the current day ? [03:46:57] !panic [03:46:57] https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7313450/entropy/gif/omgwtf.gif [07:20:05] trying to work out which table in wikidatawiki_p (via wmflabs) stores relationships like European mink (Q26559) instance of (P31) taxon (Q16521) [08:03:17] ayuda en español? [13:08:15] Hi i just wanted to ask if knowledge graphs on google are based off of wikidata information [13:09:43] !admin [13:10:27] OM: nobody quite knows if Google Knowledge Graph is based on Wikidata. Some of it is, some of it isn't. ;-) [13:11:10] Is there a way to add a person onto it? [13:11:43] If the person meets the notability criteria, sure. [13:12:04] https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Notability [13:12:05] Yes they do, how would you be able to put them on. [13:12:23] The person is on wikidata and has a imdb page [13:12:39] And has a musicbrainz page [13:12:56] ah, you mean add the person on the Knowledge graph? [13:13:16] Yes [13:13:20] yeah, whether Google show a Knowledge Graph entry is secret Google magic [13:13:29] Oh [13:14:37] Does the person have to be famous [13:14:51] Or are there steps that can be taken [13:15:23] Only Google can answer these questions. [13:16:20] I see... I can't contact google to ask these questions right? [13:16:45] They only offer billing inquire services i think. [13:17:35] I don't know [13:17:43] Ok thanks [13:18:00] you are welcome [13:29:15] we should ask denny [13:29:19] then when denny doesn't know [13:29:22] we can say google doesn't know [13:29:24] and hence [13:29:25] nobody knows [13:50:44] Is this request ok or did I miss something? https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Requests_for_permissions/Bot/FischBot_5 [13:51:10] And how is data import from Wikipedia handled? [14:17:08] Lydia_WMDE: hey [14:17:12] I hope you're around [15:14:54] hoo: hey, could you share the url of the page you consulted for stats on wikidata? [15:15:27] Here you go: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Statistics [15:15:29] hoo: thanks! [18:14:54] Amir1: i am now [18:21:02] hey, Lydia_WMDE [18:21:08] I've some stuff to talk to you [18:21:17] ok [18:21:23] first please re-review the blog draft [18:21:30] Aaron and I made some changes [18:21:50] ok [18:22:30] thanks :) [18:23:18] secondly, the campaign is staled, maybe by publishing the blog we can get more lablers [18:23:36] but is there any chance of publicizing it again [18:23:37] *nod* [18:23:42] sure [18:23:52] i would recommend publishing the post in the next days [18:23:56] is there any particular problem that prevents labeling [18:23:56] and then seeing how it goes [18:24:04] i don't know tbh [18:24:10] yes, we are close to publishing it [18:24:14] i think it would be good to ask [18:24:19] on the project chat for example [18:24:33] hmm okay [18:26:27] Lydia_WMDE: hey! 32c3 the workshop went pretty well. about 40 people total, about 10 active. [18:26:36] much interest in federating wikibase instances [18:26:43] DanielK_WMDE: cool [18:34:57] hey maxlath! thanks for your presentation during the workshop! [18:35:25] DanielK_WMDE: thank you for the opportunity! :) [19:13:13] Does someone know how to reach a dropdown item at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:NewItem without clicking? [19:13:55] Ugh, I had to type "English" instead of "inglese"... on Special:UploadWizard the opposite. Drives me crazy. [19:14:42] tab and type? [19:14:42] (didn't try) [19:16:37] Nope, doesn't work unless you remember the specifics [19:16:54] I always get it wrong with the the new custom dropdown thingy [19:59:28] @seen aharoni [19:59:32] o.0 [20:21:01] hello, how can i add a reference to a statement in wikidata? i want to add a note from a book [20:23:17] i can only add an url or a date? [20:23:34] no, you can use others properties [20:24:16] url is the most frequent property for reference that's why it's proposed [20:24:52] but like for a claim, if you began writing another property, you can use it [20:26:47] Okay, i dropped the information - but now I cannot save [20:27:11] obviously the surface wants a url? [20:27:37] well if you used the property "url" then it want an url [20:27:57] if you used another property, then no, that's not the probleù [20:28:00] problem* [20:28:07] which property should i choose for a book reference? [20:29:52] https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:Sources#Books [20:39:00] okay, thanks. but the work i am using is not in the database yet. it is in a certain edition, in a certain volume. i just want to add the source in the way i do it on wikipedia. [20:39:23] well then you have to create the wikidata entry [20:40:21] we create entries about the works, others entries about editions, and others entries about specific individual books [20:40:51] (we says an "exemplaire" in French but I don't remember how to say that in english) [20:41:08] (I'm a little sick and that's make me pretty tired sorry) [20:41:20] oh. for every simple reference all that? no wonder nobody adds refereneces to WD. [20:41:32] thanks a lot for the explanation [20:41:53] "nobody"... [20:42:25] we have millions of references, "nobody" is exaggerated ^^ [20:43:00] and once the item needed is created every time we need it to reference something, it's already there [20:43:17] so the second time is always more easy than the first :) [20:44:58] but even if i do all that - can i add page numbers? [20:45:11] with the property "page" sure [20:50:26] okay, i'll give it a try [20:54:12] Hi, I was looking for all subclasses of real number via http://tinyurl.com/h2govxb and found complex numbers, but not non negative real number which I did expect to find https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q18729403 [20:56:30] Wikidata items for numbers, eh? An uphill battle. There are infinitely many of them! (Sorry, I have no useful answer to your question.) [20:56:57] now I'm asking myself if my query is wrong or the dataset used to evaluate the query is incomplete [20:58:58] most probably my query is wrong, since I'm not very used to the query language [21:00:46] ^^ http://tinyurl.com/j86772k [21:01:20] it looks like there is already an infinit number of subclasses of real numbers entered to wikidata [21:02:00] how do i name an item when the volume and the edition is important? "title (nr.-volume, nr.-edition)? [21:03:56] physikerwelt: when I run that query I get Q18729403 (non-negative real number) as one of the results [21:04:57] * bd808 now sees that he ran the corrected query :) [21:09:09] bd808: thanks for looking into that... however I realized that I also need to look for all subclasses of the subclasses and so on so it gets more complicated [21:10:51] I haven't messed with sparkl stuff really yet. The folks in #wikimedia-discovery may be able to provide some pointers if you end up getting stuck [21:12:02] nice... there are always new wikimedia-* channels to discover [21:12:17] but I'm already close [23:04:14] harej_en_vol ... finally I figured out that there are 10093 natural numbers http://tinyurl.com/gtnlj3m [23:12:18] wdq outputs some pretty ugly json [23:51:16] omg I just saw what wikidata's rdf looks like
