It would be nice to get the best of both worlds with T89318: Replace on-wiki API documentation with Special:ApiHelp transclusion <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T89318>. Except... the wikibase API modules don't run on mw.org, nor does Wikibase client, and the transclusion will work across wikis. And there are issues with localization (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T89768). Anyway after someone reviews the doc of wb//xxx// modules on that page for anything missing from the generated API help, we can kill it. Any on-wiki examples that aren't in the generated API help should use Template:Api ex <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:ApiEx>, e.g. `{{Api ex | site=www.wikidata.org | p1=action=wbeditentity | p2=new=item | p3=data={} }}` Is there a good developer-level overview of claims, entities, Q-ids, and snaks somewhere?
