[07:50:56] Happy Monday! I was wondering whether there had been any discussion about... using Wikidata for Wikimedia users. Wikidata for the User: namespace. [07:51:52] The idea being that users could describe themselves using Wikidata parameters, just like they describe themselves with natural language in their user pages. [07:52:50] What I am after are queries like "users registered to the Wikimedia Hackathon 2018 that speak French and know Python". :) [07:53:24] "Wikimedians who joined in 2016 and live in Andorra" [07:54:53] Not all Wikimedians will be relevant enough for Wikidata proper, hence the idea of "Wikidata for the User namespace". [07:55:40] (This might be a crazy idea in many ways. Then again, it is Monday morning in this part of the planet.) [08:03:09] I see that the second line in "Create an item" says "Note: Don't create an item for your userpage. It will be deleted." So someone has thought about this, in a way. ;) [08:06:29] qgil that would be so neat! [08:06:38] I'm sure people are going to find that terrible. [08:06:46] but I'd love to have something like this ;) [08:07:18] but yeah, it is probably a Monday morning idea :) [08:09:31] After a few more minutes of research, it seems that those who would not say it is a bad idea upfront, would say that Global Userpages should go first, as per https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Requests_for_comment/Inclusion_of_non-article_pages#User_pages [08:10:58] I am not a volunteer with plenty of time to discuss this idea, and how we could count Meta or Wikidata userpages only while those global userpages come (in 2030, with luck). ;) [08:11:13] So yeah, Monday morning. [08:11:19] Pity though. [08:12:51] yeah ;) [08:12:52] An alternative being Structured Data on Userpages. ;) Maybe I someone finds a donor willing to pay a grant for that. [08:13:41] well what you're asking for really is a CRM for Wikimedians [08:13:58] we're cruelly lacking this ;) [08:14:02] Yes, exactly. [08:14:48] I literally started looking at events management software and CRMs, until I thought that we could build upon wikidata and userpages instead. [08:15:50] Based on this: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T165200 [10:35:53] qgil: yes, and also language links in user pages weren't imported when the mass imports of language links from wikipedia to wikidata was done [11:43:11] yurik: did you see my updates in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/383774/ (CSS → LESS)? If you’re okay with it, I’d be glad to merge that slightly updated version :) [11:45:59] Lucas_WMDE, ah, sorry, missed that. just +1 it :) [11:46:09] cool :) [11:46:13] thanks!!! [11:46:38] I think I’ll let Jonas_WMDE take another look as well, but I’m very happy with this now [11:47:08] if we can get modern JavaScript syntax to work in the same way (no Babel necessary if the developer uses a modern browser), I’d really love that setup :) [12:44:40] hello [12:45:01] leszek_wmde: I had to do a minor fixup in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/383995 , now it lost your +2 [12:45:35] done [12:48:23] Hey Thiemo_WMDE, any plans with this: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/370808/ [12:48:46] we can continue here right: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/367320/? [12:51:34] i'm tryng to fetch wikidata enpoint with a remote query. but it does not respond [12:52:30] is it the corrrect enpoint ? https://query.wikidata.org/ [12:53:23] maxi: the endpoint to actually run a sparql query is https://query.wikidata.org/sparql [12:53:33] GET or POST with ?query=… [12:57:03] i'm using post with arc2 library for php [12:57:43] make sure that the POST body still is “query=SELECT …”, not just “SELECT …” [13:01:59] ok [13:05:18] What about the namespace ? in the query example there aren't prefixs [13:05:52] most of the prefixes you need are pre-defined by default (though it doesn’t hurt to explicitly declare them either) [13:06:22] that happens in the backend, not in the UI, so you can also omit the prefixes when directly using the endpoint [13:09:19] thanks Lucas [13:10:32] you’re welcome :) [13:36:50] Lucas_WMDE: I'm not sure my notification worked, so there you go: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Primary_sources_tool#Rejecting_primary_sources_suggestions_based_on_constraint_violations.3F [13:38:13] pintoch: looks like it didn’t work, not sure why [13:38:17] anyways, I’ll reply [14:20:07] g
