[00:06:54] question - in WikiPEDIA there is a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability policy -- "a test used by editors to decide whether a given topic warrants its own article". Is there a parallel in WikiDATA? E.g. if you take financial statements of the S&P 500, going back 20 years, every financial statement text line line, every number, every footnote that is a TON of data! (From XBRL (a variant of XML)). I'm sure there are o [00:09:45] DoctorBud: you want a more technical channel [00:09:58] #mediawiki or #wikimedia-dev probably [00:10:07] or mediawiki-l mailing list [00:10:10] hmm [00:10:26] the mediawiki-api mailing list may be more appropriate [00:14:57] Thanks for the advice, Platonides [00:15:31] you are welcome :) [12:20:20] Hi, is anyone around who can help with coordinates on Wikidata, please? I'm trying to work out if it's OK to import some from OpenStreetMap or not. [12:29:32] as I understand it, we can't import from osm because the license osm uses isn't compatible with ours [12:57:14] nikki: Ah. Is there a good source where that isn't a problem, then? [13:00:33] I don't know of anything :/ [13:01:09] Ah. :( [13:04:45] Have now asked at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat#Sources_for_new_coordinates.3F [14:00:27] addshore: you yelly at me also having some pwetty pictures on my blog? https://www.entropywins.wtf/blog/2016/11/24/rewriting-the-wikimedia-deutschland-funrdraising/ [14:02:17] no way you can match the sebastian one [14:36:06] why for a street, it needs a "administrative location" *and* a country? [14:36:14] the second is redondant [14:36:52] and quite useless [15:13:51] yannf: it makes querying easier. [15:16:31] lol [15:17:50] that's really a poor rationale [15:18:01] looking for all street in one country make little sense anyway [15:18:57] there are 1000s of things which would make "querying easier", yet we don't them [16:31:51] https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q27955780 [16:32:32] what do you about the qualiticatives for the coordinates? [16:33:23] *qualificative [17:49:07] is there a simplified example of creating data in WikiData, then pulling it into a table in WikiPedia? Code examples, tutorials, etc.?
