[08:36:17] <revent|tablet>	 harej: Things like "Standing men facing left while smiling" are a Commons joke.
[08:39:34] <revent|tablet>	 It would be ridiculous IMO to have items for many Commons categories, since they are often not about discrete concepts (but instead a kludge for not having image tags)

[15:39:06] <Thibaut120094>	 Wikidata down or is it just me?
[15:39:06] <nikki>	 it's down
[15:39:06] <Thibaut120094>	 "You can try searching via Google in the meantime." lol
[15:39:10] <nikki>	 seems to be back
[15:39:13] <Thibaut120094>	 yep
[15:39:13] <aude>	 sorry :(
[15:39:13] <aude>	 it's fixed
[15:39:13] <Thibaut120094>	 no problem

[16:27:05] <Harmonia_Amanda>	 Lydia_WMDE: Ash_Crow wrote to you the birthday text?
[16:27:23] <Harmonia_Amanda>	 I didn't have internet the last few days, he helped me...
[16:31:08] <DanielK_WMDE_>	 Lydia_WMDE: en.wikisource uses wikidata for authority control on 20k or so author pages, e.g. https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Author:Henry_Spelman
[16:31:37] <Lydia_WMDE>	 Harmonia_Amanda: no problem. all good :)
[16:31:40] <Lydia_WMDE>	 i have it ready
[16:31:46] <Lydia_WMDE>	 DanielK_WMDE_: merci!
[16:31:51] <Harmonia_Amanda>	 great!
[16:36:10] <DanielK_WMDE_>	 Lydia_WMDE: en.wikivoyage also uses wikidata quite a bit,m but i havn't figured out how exactly yet. these are the relevant templates: https://en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Module%3AWikibase&namespace=10

[16:43:21] <multichill>	 DanielK_WMDE_: Will be in Berlin tonight
[16:44:44] <Amir1>	 multichill: hey :)
[16:48:29] <multichill>	 hi Amir1
[16:48:38] <aude>	 multichill: \o/
[16:48:41] <multichill>	 Did you see my question about fuzzy list formatting
[16:48:43] <multichill>	 ?
[16:48:45] <aude>	 we will be at c-base
[16:49:02] <Amir1>	 multichill: no 
[16:49:05] <multichill>	 aude: Until what time?
[16:49:17] <Amir1>	 when did you send it?
[16:49:24] <aude>	 multichill: no idea, probably late
[16:49:39] <multichill>	 What is the program again for tomorrow? ;-)
[16:50:54] <multichill>	 Owh, we start at 13:00!
[16:51:19] <Amir1>	 multichill: what was it?
[16:51:33] <multichill>	 Amir1: You made the fuzzy list, but no formatting
[16:51:38] <Amir1>	 I'm sorry if I didn't see it. Otherwise I would answer right away
[16:51:41] <multichill>	 Was wondering if you could include that
[16:51:44] <Amir1>	 hmm
[16:51:52] <Amir1>	 Let me think
[16:52:02] <Amir1>	 It's a simple regex I guess 
[16:52:35] <Amir1>	 let me fix the page
[17:06:32] <DanielK_WMDE_>	 multichill: cool! quite a few people will be on the c-base tonight. i won't join, since I have an RFC session to prepare (Dependency Injection, 23:00 CET)
[17:08:03] <multichill>	 DanielK_WMDE_: DUDE! ;-)
[17:09:33] <multichill>	 I'll be in town until Saturday so I'm sure we can go for a beer one of the other nights
[17:10:41] <DanielK_WMDE_>	 Tomorrow. I'll head to Leipzig on Friday. 
[17:14:03] <multichill>	 See you at c-base, time to catch a flight
[19:29:48] <tobias47n9e>	 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Wikimania_2016 <--
[19:32:49] <harej>	 exciting!
[19:32:58] <harej>	 also, I posted a question about... uh... category notability, if anyone cares https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Notability#Are_Commons_categories_notable_by_themselves.3F
[19:33:02] <andre__>	 what is a "Wikidata project chat"?
[19:33:13] <harej>	 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat ?
[19:33:45] <harej>	 it's wikidata's village pump, basically
[19:33:49] <harej>	 the central discussion page
[19:34:02] <tobias47n9e>	 andre__ I struggle how to express that "all languages of project chat", "all project chat languages"?
[19:34:40] <andre__>	 what is a "project chat"?
[19:34:58] <andre__>	 ah.
[19:35:01] <tobias47n9e>	 andre__, A forum?
[19:35:10] <andre__>	 so a wikipage.
[19:35:12] <andre__>	 I see.
[19:36:33] <andre__>	 I think a link to each page (like for "(de)") would have helped me realize what that term means. Thanks :)
[19:36:46] <tobias47n9e>	 andre__, harej I hope you can comment on the page and I really hope you can come to the conference.
[19:36:56] <harej>	 i may be skipping 2016
[19:37:23] <harej>	 (i have attended five consecutive wikimanias!)
[19:37:36] <tobias47n9e>	 harej, But this one is in Bella Italia :)
[19:38:10] <harej>	 it is in the old country. yes. but wikimania has just become too stressful for me.
[19:40:46] <tobias47n9e>	 harej, Since I became involved with Wikidata I have overdosed on stress and have no become immune to it :)
[19:40:57] <harej>	 wikidata is stressful?
[19:41:11] <harej>	 i find it to be a lot of fun!
[19:41:21] <tobias47n9e>	 harej, Sometimes, when there is a lot to get going forward :)
[19:46:47] <edrobot>	 wikidata is still relatively new, and there is an awful lot of work still to be done
[19:49:24] <harej>	 tell me about it
[19:49:38] <harej>	 i had to create hundreds of items just to accommodate my mass import project at my day job
[19:50:22] <edrobot>	 on nl-wiki we have a daily dose of new articles with no entry yet 
[19:50:28] <edrobot>	 and little people know about that ;-)
[19:52:15] <tobias47n9e>	 We really need to work on the gamification of certain tasks on Wikidata. I was looking into a translation-game this week and then found this: https://translate.google.com/community
[19:53:02] <hashar>	 DanielK_WMDE_: are you around still? :-}
[19:53:06] <tobias47n9e>	 Google has did a real good job on that. We need something similar to translate the most-wanted items.
[19:53:29] <hashar>	 DanielK_WMDE_: some people are wondering whether you are attending the RFC meeting this week. If you do that means we skip the kafka event bus RFC in favor of mediawiki injection
[19:57:20] <Amir1>	 In my time zone it's about to start wikidata's birthday :)
[20:01:03] <DanielK_WMDE_>	 hashar: i'm here, and happy to talk about dependency injection :)
[20:01:14] <hashar>	 DanielK_WMDE_: Danke :-)
[20:01:31] <DanielK_WMDE_>	 damn time zone foo
[21:42:06] <edrobot>	 does anyone here know how to create a WDQ to list all plants? I tried with web() and with tree(), but web showed animals too, and tree only two items.
[22:10:13] <tobias47n9e>	 edrobot, Let me see if i can help.
[22:11:39] <edrobot>	 yes please ... it was a question from Wikimedia Netherlands actually
[22:12:07] <edrobot>	 I know I can create a python script to find it, but autolist(2) would give results way quicker
[22:14:46] <tobias47n9e>	 edrobot, Sparql would be even better, but I didn't have time to learn that yet.
[22:15:04] <tobias47n9e>	 But this should work: http://tools.wmflabs.org/autolist/autolist1.html?q=tree[756][][171]
[22:15:20] <edrobot>	 I'm already happy as a child with the possibilities that python/pywikibot is giving me
[22:15:22] <tobias47n9e>	 460099 items
[22:16:14] <tobias47n9e>	 edrobot, https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Pywikibot_-_Python_3_Tutorial I am collecting Wikidata examples here, but 460000 is as boring as web-scraping :)
[22:16:33] <edrobot>	 I tried it without the [] empty brackets earlier ... 
[22:17:05] <tobias47n9e>	 edrobot, [startitem][moving up the tree][moving down the tree]
[22:17:56] <edrobot>	 aha ... in my case it gave all fish and spiders etc as well... that was too much ;-)
[22:19:03] <edrobot>	 my two queries in python are listed here: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Edoderoobot
[22:19:31] <edrobot>	 today I created some code to collect / scrape the number of inhabitants per Dutch postal code, I will add that too one of these days
[22:21:30] <tobias47n9e>	 Nice. I will bookmark the page and see if I can gather new tutorial ideas :)
[22:23:07] <edrobot>	 you are the one that will do the workshop in Sweden next month?
[22:25:24] <tobias47n9e>	 edrobot, No. But the link is on that page. Don't know who is doing that.
[22:25:52] <edrobot>	 it's during our yearly Wikimedia Conference in Utrecht ... so though it's interesting, I can't go there anyways
[22:27:58] <edrobot>	 but your tutorial will save me a lot of time ... 
[22:28:23] <edrobot>	 I've seen some things I figured out the hard way ... and some things that I wanted to know pretty bad already!
[22:29:42] <tobias47n9e>	 edrobot, Glad the tutorials are useful. We need all the bots we can get on Wikidata. Also more bots that check information between Wikdata and Wikipedia. Catch easy errors and such.
[22:30:28] <edrobot>	 this year I did most of my edits with autolist2 ... together with creator to generate pages
[22:30:54] <edrobot>	 for the low hanging fruits that is good enough ... but when you need flexibility, you need python
[22:36:54] <nikki>	 hmm... isn't there a ticket in phabricator for the sitelinks section where if you type a language code, it matches against the name? (like "es" will select esperanto)
[22:37:09] <nikki>	 I could've sworn I saw one but I can't find anything now
