Hoi,
I have been playing with the tool for some time and it is already great; it
works and it is a great basis to expand on. Expand its functionality and
data quality.
I added a label in Urdu in Wikidata for "Mujaddid Ahmad Ijaz" and once the
synchronisation was done, I found a wealth of pictures

Hey everyone,
first of all, thanks for all the compliments on my tool! I'm really
glad that people think it is of use.
First of all, i made a couple of updates to the tool, including adding
i18n support, category search and links to Petscan. I've posted an
update on Twitter:
Hoi,
I have been a professional developer for much of my working life. From what
I know of what Hay has done, I know you are wrong depending on the approach
taken. Building this functionality can be an iterative process, it does not
need to be all singing all dancing from the start. At one time
Hi Gerard,
I mostly agree with you. However, I disagree with this:

Hoi,
Indeed, we have all known what things are possible and, indeed we have all
been calling for a change in the "Commons experience". Now the great thing
of this "proof of concept" is that at this time it stands alone. It
demonstrates that multilingual search can be harnessed in what is only a
First of all, good job. I appreciate that.
To be honest, however, some of us did not need a "proof of concept" to know
that this was possible, we would have helped to build it years ago if the
situation allowed it. it did not, the "social" environment was against it. We
could not de facto
Hoi,
Mike you are absolutely right but you are missing the point that I am
trying to make. Yes, what is exposed by Hay's SDSEARCH tool is based on all
the work that was done before and as such it relies absolutely on the work
that has been done before. Without it, this tool would not be possible.
Hi all,
It’s worth remembering that this functionality is built in to Commons, it’s
just not as user-friendly. From the example below, if you put
"haswbstatement:P180=Q191931” into the Commons searchbox, you will get the same
results. Thanks to the structured data on commons project+team!
Hoi,
Two more localisations became available, one for German and one for
Swedish. I have asked Alolita if she would help us with a localisation in
an Indian language. Anthere, would you be so kind and reach out so that we
have a localisation in an African language as well.. (French would also be
Hoi,
Florence I totally agree that proper internatonalisation, localisation is
key. What is key for me is that this already provides an easy and obvious
search function for mediafiles that have a link to a Wikidata item. Just to
stress the point, this is a wiki, we do not need a fully functional

I noticed that Hay just added a locale

This is a beautiful proof of concept; thank you for sharing it,
Gerard, and thank you, Hay, for developing it.
Hoi,
Hay Kranen created a proof of concept where Commons is searched for
pictures that (per standard) use a "depicts" statement.. The search is
limited to existing labels in Wikidata and to the search has as its result
whatever is available in commons..
Use for instance "appelmoes" and you get
15 matches
