Hello,
tried to add a new item to the Wikidata-repo. Everything works fine but I'm
missing a possible feature: The suggestions popping up while entering a
keyword is really nice, but sometimes there are more meanings.
In such cases it would really help to have the intro of the wiki in the
pop-up, retrieved with e.g.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=extracts&exintro&titles=Jos%C3%A9_Manuel_Barroso&format=jsonfm
That's exactly what the Label / Description thingy in Wikidata aims
for, to provide this kind of disambiguation text.
Sorry, you didn't get me correct. What I meant was, that a short extract
from the article would be helpful while adding that article to the
Wikidata-item while creating this.
There are lemmas already on WP having different meanings, e.g.
Bootstrapping (w:de:Bootstrapping). If I want to add one of those
articles to the item it would be great to have a short preview of the
article, to be sure to choose the right one.
We are talking about the situation where the article isn't yet
associated to an item of Wikidata. So there is also no assignment
between the article and this Label/Description thing of Wikidata.
BTW: Is it possible to add a link to [[Special:CreateItem]] in the
Toolbox on the left hand side?
I know that is one more request, but maybe also the opensearch function
could be improved, that is provides this feature by default?
Just another suggestion:
Is it possible to set the same background-color for the pop-up-entries,
while stepping through the list with the keybord as by hovering over them
with the mouse-cursor? The contrast font-color/background is not very high.
On which setup? For me, stepping through with my keyboard has exactly
the same high contrast as the mouse hovering.
Iceweasel 10 on Debian Wheezy. But forget about it. Maybe it was my
Firebug which used an additional semitransparent color for highlighting,
sorry ;-)
Marco
