Re: [Wikitech-l] If users can't edit an article, don't encourage them to edit its Wikidata item

Probably some of you can help with... https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208315 (MediaWiki) ... or... https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208279 (Wikibase). These tasks seem feasible and uncontroversial. Thanks! -- David Abián ___ Wikitech-l mailin

Re: [Wikitech-l] If users can't edit an article, don't encourage them to edit its Wikidata item

Including information from Wikidata in a page is not so different from transcluding a template.

In fact, mayb

OK, so that makes at least two of us thinking along those lines. I suggest that you cross-post this discussion to the Wikidata email list to invite more people to participate in this discussion. Thanks for bringing up this subject for discussion. I am not fond of vandals. Pine ( https://meta.wiki

Re: [Wikitech-l] If users can't edit an article, don't encourage them to edit its Wikidata item

Re: [Wikitech-l] If users can't edit an article, don't encourage them to edit its Wikidata item

I'm hesitant to support hiding information from readers, including links to Wikidata. As an alternative to hiding information, could articles that are semi-protected on Wikipedia (I assume that this refers to ENWP, but perhaps it refers to other languages also) automatically have semi-protection ap

Hi, I'm sending this email to request your help with... https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T207648 We don't want non-confirmed users to see links from semiprotected Wikipedia articles to their corresponding Wikidata items. This is a well-known source of vandalism (and bad press) that is seriously
