Re: [Wikidata-l] Wikidata for Wiktionary

2015-05-14 Thread Gerard Meijssen
Hoi,
From a Wiktionary point of view they are not the same.  Wiktionary links
articles that have the same spelling in common. For every meaning in every
language they link to the articles that have a specific spelling and it is
potluck if that meaning actually exists.
Thanks,
 GerardM

 Can you elaborate on how you want to handle word form vs word sense?

Re: [Wikidata-l] Wikidata for Wiktionary

2015-05-14 Thread John Erling Blad
Seems like this is doable, and it does describe a solution to how
Wiktionary can be linked form Wikidata. It is although not completely
clear to me how some remaining problems can be solved.

How do we go from a spelled form of a lexeme at Wiktionary and to an
identifier on Wikidata? And how do we go from one Sense to another
synonym Sense? Do we use statements? But then only the L-identifiers
can be used, so we will link them at the Lexeme level..

Wiktionary is organized around homonyms while Wikipedia is organized
around synonyms, especially across languages, and I think this
difference creates some of the problems.

 Lexemes at different languages share a spelling, and that is the
 reason why they are linked together. That kind of linkage can be
 automated. Some other pages (usually in other namespaces) at those
 projects should be linked too, but can't be handled automatically.
 Would they be handled as sitelinks in Items?

 Yes, I'd assume so.

[Wikidata-l] Wikidata-l: List rename on Tuesday, 19th

2015-05-14 Thread John Lewis
Hi everyone,

On Tuesday, 19th of May, there is the intention to rename the wikidata-l
mailing list to wikidata https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T99136. This
will drop the -l suffix. This is being done in the intention to unify and
standarise a naming scheme for all Wikimedia mailing lists that has been
waiting for several years.

This is taking part in an existing planned maintenance window 
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T99098 so no issues are expected to
arise from this. Existing URLs and emails will continue to function
correctly.

This is just an email giving a brief notice that this will happen. If you
have any more questions, please reply and I'll try my best to respond as
soon as possible.

Thanks to Lydia for kindly accepting to allow a rename of the list to
happen during the Tuesday window as well.

John Lewis

Hoi,
What is your definition of a language and, if it is not along the lines of
the ISO-639-3, how are they organised.

One of the first things to do is understand how these languages can be
incorporated in Wikidata and prepare for that. Do you have a list with all
the languages and hopefully their code ?
Thanks,
 GerardM
