[02:21:54] Hello. The CTRL+Space option is not working in Mac. I have tried Command+Space after disabling spotlight [02:23:17] Any Idea? [03:47:23] Hi I am trying this query but it does not work [03:47:24] http://tinyurl.com/y8p2pt2k [03:47:43] Q6250 should have been there in the query [03:47:47] But it says 0 results [03:47:50] Can anyone help? [04:02:56] I figured it out ty. I accidentally used wdt instead of wd [05:13:34] Hi again. I am trying to find locations like Q5073352. [05:14:09] Basically I want to filter for places that are listed as belonging to two different countries, but has an "end time" qualifier for one of them [05:26:30] But I cannot figure out how to filter a SPARKQL query which also can look into qualifiers for any statements [05:26:36] Can anyone help? [05:26:41] @abartov ? [08:20:14] @jsahu If you want it to work for a special application you can add shortcuts for applications in system preferences (system preferences > keyboard > shortcuts). You need to know the exact command from the menu of the application though. Hope that helps... [09:02:34] Hiya, I need some query help. I have this query, which works as intended: http://tinyurl.com/yajbqajg [09:02:45] But I want to do the same, but exclude all football players [09:03:36] I tried adding " FILTER NOT EXISTS { ?item wdt:P106 wd:Q937857 } . " on the line below ?artikkel schema:isPartOf , but that leads to a timeout error [09:05:34] nikki perhaps? :) [09:07:42] putting it on the line above the sitelink stuff works for me [09:09:50] (i.e. above the first ?artikkel, like in http://tinyurl.com/y7uv5tmj) [09:10:49] nikki, thanks! i thought i tried that first, but it gave a timeout as well, but i probably did something wrong [09:10:52] works now, thanks! :) [09:11:33] :) [11:52:50] By accident I merged [[Q24716484]] into [[Q19764711]], while it should have been merged with [[Q24717561]] instead. Now I want to undo or restore [[Q24716484]] to a correct version but it says "Undo failed Invalid content data". Can someone help me out with this?

[12:00:56] insert King Theoden shouting "you have no power here!" joke [12:35:36] sjoerddebruin: do you know what we do with viaf ids where viaf added the wrong wikidata id on their side and that got imported to wikidata? [13:00:59] nikki: deprecated statement? [13:03:26] Or we just remove it for being wrong? [13:03:37] nikki: if you can't correct them, just remove I think. [13:03:43] Or do we still want a record of the wrong VIAF? [13:03:45] There is no bot importing them atm AFAIK [13:04:19] If you can move it to the correct item, VIAF will correct within 1-3± months [13:05:09] harej: if a statement is wrong but likely to come back, it should be kept and marked deprecated [13:05:14] that's what the deprecated rank is for [13:05:35] is it documented somewhere what viaf reacts to? [13:05:49] Idk how they matched. [13:08:00] I was thinking deprecated because viaf still has the wrong id, but if adding it to the right item will make them fix it, that sounds good [15:18:43] \quit [15:29:16] sjoerddebruin: they did really well with https://viaf.org/viaf/139568476/ :( [15:31:43] at least five different churches, all linked at the same time, so it's not like it ever identified a particular one [15:32:04] well, maybe for the millisecond after the first id was linked and before the second one was :P [15:32:23] I really don't know what to do with that [17:48:12] How would I represent a range of dates for an approximate value? (basically I want to “±1” but in one direction, i.e. 1859-1860) [18:42:45] hawke: earliest date / latest date [18:42:52] (as qualifiers) [19:58:15] how would I encode the fact that a university is publicly (or privately) financed? Currently, there is Q902104 for "private university" and Q875538 for "public university". But in Germany, people distinguish the universities, i.e. there is Q1365560. Would even more subclasses make sense or rather a property to indicate who is paying for most of the bills? I'm guessing other institutions who can either be public or private have [19:58:15] a similar problem. [20:07:11] (out of the blue, I know too little about wikidata to be wuper useful) [20:07:27] could you add a thing about "source of funding"? [20:07:30] or something? [20:07:37] *super useful [20:07:43] and then you'd have public funding [20:07:46] and private funding [20:36:24] muelli: it's difficult to say when to stop making subclasses... however, if other databases have ids for the concept, then by having an item we could link to them, also if there's only a limited number of subclasses, it can be easier to model it using subclasses rather than repeatedly entering the same statements over and over [20:36:53] a "source of funding" property does sound like it would work for quite a few things though [20:39:58] "sponsor (P859): enterprise or individual that sponsors this item" hm [20:40:20] a bit weird though to put "germany" in there. Or the class of a legal entity. [21:15:40] muelli: what about the federal government of germany? Or a specific agency if that's known? [21:39:08] hrm harej. dunno. may be the best thing to do. but what about private ones then? [21:49:20] muelli: Wouldn't that just be whatever business that provides funding? [21:49:41] hawke: yeah, probably. But then one has to create an item for that first :-| [22:14:28] We create items for this kind of stuff all the time! [22:36:35] sure. but it seems to be more effort than somehow saying "it's privately funded". And the more effort it is, the less likely I'm inclined to perform the work ;-)
