Re: [Wikidata-l] Can we make this item a featured one?
Hi, Items about food are a little bit hard at the moment. There is a lack of special statements. I think most properties that are needed require units. We're still waiting for that.

What properties can be added to make this sufficient to feature? I think the subject is excellent for this as it is a worldwide food. Thanks!

[Wikidata-l] Arbitrary access is coming to the first wikis
Hey folks :)
When using data from Wikidata on Wikipedia and other sister projects
there is currently a limitation in place which hinders some use cases.
Data can only be accessed from the corresponding item. So for example
the article about Berlin can only get data from the item about Berlin
but not from the item about Germany. This had technical reasons. On
Monday we will remove this limitation on the first wikis. This will be
Dutch Wikipedia and French Wikisource. (More will follow over the next
weeks. We hope to have it rolled out nearly everywhere by the end of
June.) We invite you to play around with this new feature if you are
one of the people who have been waiting for this for a long time. If
you have technical issues/questions with this you can come to
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Contact_the_development_team
A note of caution: Please be careful with how many items you use for a
single page. If it is too many page loading might get slow. We will
have to see how the feature behaves in production to see where we need
to tweak and how.
How to use it once it is enabled:
* Parser function: {{#property:capital|from=Q183}} to get the capital
from the item about Germany
* Lua: see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Wikibase_Client/Lua
Cheers
Lydia, who is very happy this is finally getting out

Awesome \o/ This is a great step forward to make Wikidata more useful
for Wikipedias.
Very cool to have this feature finally.
Best regards,

Re: [Wikidata-l] Wikidata for Wiktionary
Hoi, Would it not make sense to FIRST finish a few things.. Like Commons and Query ?

Re: [Wikidata-l] Wikidata for Wiktionary
The work on queries and arbitrary access is well on its way, and also the new UI is continually being developed and deployed. I don't think that it is too early to think and gather consensus on how the steps for Wiktionary could look like. I am certainly not proposing to stop the current work on queries, but merely to create realistic tasks for the Wiktionary phase of Wikidata.
