Re: [Wikidata-l] weekly summary #157

2015-05-09 Thread Yuri Astrakhan
Graphs are launched on "everywhere except wikidatawiki" iirc. Regardless,
graphs can already use external data, as long as the data URL is part of
wikimedia's domains. So graph itself can be on wikipedia or mediawiki.
Lastly, no, there is no real interactivity except for the hover effect in
Vega at the moment, but hopefully it will get done soon.

I see no reason that they could not. The visualizations should have some
sort of interactivity, and if I understand it correctly, that might be
doable with Graphs. And if not it could possibly be achieved by combining
it with a user script/gadget.

We have an open ticket to get it enabled on a test system first. I want to
first see if/how it works together and see any potential performance and
stability impacts.

Lydia, can visualization challenge use freshly launched graphs? I haven't
enabled them on Wikidata just to be safe, but it can be done very quickly.

   - Denny has published a proposed breakdown of tasks for Wiktionary
   support incl mockups
   .
   Please read and comment.
   - The Wikidata Menu Challenge
    has started and
   goes on to May 27. Add labels, images and pronunciation audio to a list of
   around 290 items to help show off the power of Wikidata at a food festival.
   - Dynamic lists on Wikipedia based on Wikidata data

Development

   - Access to data from arbitrary items is coming to the first wikis on
   Monday
   
   \o/ It'll be Dutch Wikipedia and French Wikisource.
   - Sneak peek at the current state of development for showing constraint
   violations on statements
   
   - Hovercards also show the target's label and ID now. (Try them by
   turning them on in the beta features section of your preferences.)
   - Continued working on RDF export
   - More work on making it possible to add a reference right away when
   adding a statement (and allowing the full statement incl references to be
   edited at the same time)
   - Did more work to make usage tracking possible on multilingual wikis
   (namely Commons)
