Hi, Starting from a very different problem, I found myself asking a very strange question: How will the Visual Editor interact with Wikidata?
Namely, let's say that somebody is editing the article about Romania in the visual editor. The article contains an infobox with all the data brought from Wikidata. The user will edit one of those fields (say, the president's name). Will that change automatically be reflected back to Wikidata? If not, will it be even possible to edit those fields? If the change is pushed to Wikidata, how are conflicts handled (2 users editing the president's name on different wikis during a very crowded period when changes take a while to replicate and one of them makes a mistake)? I seem to remember that wikidata edit-in-place is planned for phase II, but I always assumed this would happen using some kind of popup window, which kindof beats the purpose of a visual editor. Thanks, Strainu _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
