I suggested something with, I think, similar functionality for the Community Wishlist Survey last time; got many supports but it didn’t make the top. Is this what you’d like to see as well, Erika? https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2016_Community_Wishlist_Survey/Categories/Programs_and_events#Article_tracking_tool_for_Wikiprojects.2C_edit-a-thons_and_other_campaigns.2C_based_on_Wikidata <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2016_Community_Wishlist_Survey/Categories/Programs_and_events#Article_tracking_tool_for_Wikiprojects.2C_edit-a-thons_and_other_campaigns.2C_based_on_Wikidata>
In the Dutch gender gap project on nlwiki we have similarly daunting task lists. Our working group is pro-Wikidata, we use it to inspire our task lists, but I’m sure that appropriate tools would make our workload there much lighter. Here’s an example of something that comes close - an auto-updating list of important female visual artists who don’t have articles on nlwiki yet, a list generated from Wikidata - but it would be so great if we could add columns to suggest translations from other language Wikipedias, for instance, and if such lists would be easier to generate and create, also by non-Wikidata-or SPARQL-savvy people. https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikiproject/Gendergap/Kunst/Vrouwelijke_moderne_en_hedendaagse_kunstenaars <https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikiproject/Gendergap/Kunst/Vrouwelijke_moderne_en_hedendaagse_kunstenaars> Best, Sandra/Spinster > On 5 Feb 2017, at 09:51, Brill Lyle <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Wikidatans, > > Inspired by the Zika corpus project at WikiCite 2016,[1] I wanted to see if > it was (a) possible and (b) practical to set up an automatically updating > table (ideally for use in Wikipedia but pulling from Wikidata) that would > allow the Black Lunch Table Project initiative on Wikipedia to automate and > customize their Task List -- which is somewhat massive.[2] > > Heather Hart from Black Lunch Table holds editathons all over North > America,[3] and I think they will be intersectional with some of the other > Wikipedia initiatives.
