[10:37:27] Is there a tool similar the wikidata resolver that takes a list of properties and property values which then returns the corresponding wikidata items? e.g. for a list of length 1 I supply P1234, 'fooBarId' and I get back Q1234 [10:38:35] I realise this can be done one by one using query.wikidata.org but I wondered if someone had already built a way to do it in bulk [14:11:39] Auregann_WMDE: WikidataCon tickets went fast? [14:12:01] sjoerddebruin: yep, everything is gone! [14:12:28] Woah. [14:12:56] We'll have 200 persons strongly interested in Wikidata in the same room ^_^ [14:17:33] :) [14:21:58] Hi hoo :3 [14:22:01] I didn't even get a mail when the new ones were released as was said [14:22:39] Ainali: we released the seats in the order of the registrations on the waitlist [14:22:39] Yeah, I've asked because a friend missed them. [14:23:01] If new seats are released and you're next on the list, you'll have a mail [14:23:11] But now it will be only if some people cancel [14:24:19] Ahh, I see. I thought everybody would get a mail and then it would be a race to book again... [14:25:12] Ainali: Well, that would have not been very fair, for people in different timezones for example :) [14:25:57] As fair as the first release I guess :) [15:39:53] !admin Several Dutch Wikipedia users are removing a link from Q9081. For explanation, see (request from other user): https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Unregulatory_deletion_of_Wikiquote_link . Can a moderator undo or protect this? This seems to me to be vandalism of multiple users. [17:24:05] Lucas_WMDE, Hey, I just saw your comment above, which reminds me of this thread from February (link to a single post) https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2017-February/010335.html ----- It would probably be good to link your work, and that old thread, at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Labels_and_descriptions talkpage? [17:24:22] Just a thought. :) [17:29:26] quiddity: feel free to add a link to the talk page :) not sure I want to do it myself, I don’t think it’s *extremely* related [17:29:51] (though you could use a similar approach to gather statistics about label/description coverage by language and range of Q#) [17:30:30] nod, will do. (A) I was intrigued by your results. (B) I really hope we can eventually stop doing so much mass-labour duplication (i.e. do Magnus' suggestion). [17:34:17] yeah… the recent problems with dispatch lag partly caused by mass-added descriptions have definitely warmed be up for automatic descriptions in wikibase itself [17:39:16] I wonder if automatic descriptions would make speakers of smaller languages more interested in descriptions [17:43:11] I threw together a quick post. Not sure what else to do. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:WikiProject_Labels_and_descriptions#Mass_duplication.2C_automation.2C_translation (And now I have vacation-day errands. o/ ) [19:08:30] quiddity: Lydia_WMDE : You said labels? Check out https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_sum_of_all_paintings/Creators_same_name ;-) [19:08:52] Could probably made more general and machine learningish [19:09:11] Amir1: ^^ [19:10:36] multichill: It's something I've been working on for a while [19:11:09] You do? I can think of some logical way to find duplicates, but doing it with some sort of learning would be much nicer [19:11:59] Learning is easy the problem is you need to compare each item with 30M other items to find duplicates [19:12:16] so what I did was to hash item labels [19:12:38] And aliases? [19:12:39] (locality sensitive hashes) [19:12:42] yeah [19:12:46] and compare only close ones [19:18:20] Any plans on publishing it? [19:23:40] Amir1: Stuff like https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q21456981 & https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q16222695 should be easy to match up [19:24:13] haven't finished it yet [19:24:24] let me prioritize it [19:27:27] Don't feel rushed or anything. Just think you'll have impact there [19:28:08] Ooooohhhhh, nice, managed to get the aliases in without time-outs [22:28:37] * YairRand reads [[Wikidata:Property_proposal/Overview]] [22:28:37] 10[1] 10https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/Overview [22:28:48] we have a _lot_ of old unresolved property proposals
