Hoi,

The Italian Wikipedia is the first project where people who use search will
find results added from Wikidata. As you may know, Wikidata knows has more
items with a label in a language than a Wikipedia has articles. With the
Wikidata based functionality people will gain several functionalities that
are new to them

- a link to Commons categories for a subject
- a link to Wikipedia articles in other languages
- a link to the Wikidata item
- visualisation care of the Reasonator

When there are multiple items found in the search request, disambiguation
will be provided based on the statements available on the items. Obviously
as more labels are available in a language for statements, the experience
will improve.

This is a really exciting new development and I want to thank Magnus and
Nemo for making it possible. I hope and expect that many Wikipedias will
follow the example of the Italian Wikipedia. Particularly the smaller
Wikipedias have much to gain from this new functionality.
Thanks,
   GerardM


Yay for more cross-project integration. 3 itwp for giving this a try.
Thanks to Magnus, Gerard and anyone else involved. I'd love to hear
feedback and suggestions for improvements from itwp.




I have enabled it yesterday for pl.wiki too :)
It looks really great.

This is great; and now on pl.WP too.

What about a big button, in the relevant host language, saying Start
a Wikipedia article on this subject (with a smaller how to link
alongside)?

The edit window could be pre-populated.

(I believe the German-language community have also been discussing this idea)

[Wikidata-l] Collaboration with scholarly resources?

2013-12-04 Thread Daniel Mietchen
Dear all,

I am exploring options of interaction between Wikidata and scholarly
resources. While my focus here is on biodiversity research (and I'd be
very happy to hear about your activities along these lines), a more
concrete route for collaboration now becomes visible with PubChem, as
mentioned at
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:WikiProject_Chemistry#Collaboration_with_PubChem
.

Cheers,

Daniel
