For planning and coordinating documentation relevant to WMF sister projects.
Note: at time of writing, Wikidata is deployed on Wikipedia, Wikiquote, Wikisource, Wikivoyage, and Wikimedia Commons; Wikinews is being planned for August 19th
Sister projects content inventory
[edit]On Wikidata
[edit]- in Category:Sister_projects currently have Commons, Wikiquote, Wikisource, Wikivoyage, Wikitionary (as well as subpages), plus template, plus main portal
- Wikidata:Sister_projects (portal page) - links to sister projects on Wikidata; checklist for launching other projects
Standalone pages for projects
[edit]- deployed but page is framed as though draft of proposal, not of current use
- has ambassador list (with links to announcements of Phase 1 & 2) - is this up to date?
- not a lot of info on why it's important/of value
- needs more info on use of oldwikisource?
- should link to appropriate Wikisource page on Wikidata
- should include info on coordinating/using like Wikisource page
- not yet deployed; proposal and discussion
- additional proposals at Wikidata:Wiktionary_(alternative_proposal), Wikidata:Wiktionary/Previous, and Wikidata:Comparison_of_Projects_and_Proposals_for_Wiktionary
- ambassadors?
- communicating value - opinion on Wiktionary seems to be that Wikdata offers no benefits and is only really useful for Wikipedias
- needs to be updated - currently only indicates that has Phase 1 access to Wikidata only
- bot information not particularly helpful to Wikivoyage editors
- no information on value of Wikidata for Wikivoyage
- update link to discussion - Wikidata:Project_chat/Archive/2013/07#Wikivoyage_notability
- some of the thing listed under "Issues" are resolved, some are ongoing - clean up; some might be more useful in a new FAQ section on the page
- expand on importance of linking between Wikipedia and Wikivoyage (related sites in left sidebar); see also mw:Extension:RelatedSites
- not much content on how to help/contribute
- not many ambassadors identified - possibly more outreach needed?
- Phase 2 data now available - any use cases? Specifically look at 4 'item' types that can be linked to Wikiquote - people, works (literary works, proverbs, films, TV shows...), proverbs, themes - and find examples
- add link to Wikidata:Project_chat/Archive/2014/04#Wikiquote_notability?
- doesn't discuss value/importance - discuss interwiki links, etc
- unclear status of new Wikiquote model (i.e. quotations as items) - page explicitly excludes this but is still not clear what is happening with this even on the pages linked out to
- update FAQ (no longer there - and not one I removed)
- also Wikidata:Wikimedia_Commons/previous
- doesn't make clear the importance/value of participation/development - show example of Reasonator item and Commons category?
- lots of bugs and list of links - could be moved to subpages
- concerns info both in proposal stage and current stage
Wikidata:Wikipedia
[edit]- no such space
- very little content
- see also Wikidata:Project_chat/Archive/2013/02#Include_Wikispecies_into_Wikidata
- little content
- see also Wikidata:Project_chat#Wikinews_Sitelinks_.28Phase_1.29
Discussion maybe only of historical value/interest?
[edit]- Wikidata:Requests_for_comment/Items_for_Wikimedia_projects_besides_Wikipedia
- Wikidata:Property_proposal/Sister_projects
Outside Wikidata
[edit]Wikisource
[edit]- info on adding sitelinks (interwiki links)
- info on how to edit items and what properties to use
- info on using Wikidata data on Wikisource - e.g. adding or to wikitext for the page linked to the item will return the date of birth value; also modules
Wikivoyage
[edit]see Cooperating with Wikidata,Wikidata Expedition, and Access to data from Wikidata is now available
- has tool in left sidebar "Wikdata item"
- uses voy:Andorra as prototype item
- Cooperating page communicates value, provides some details on how Wikidata helps with Wikivoyage maintenance/quality assurance
- Expedition page provides content on how to edit/contribute
Wikiquote
[edit]- no dedicated space?
- see discussion at q:Wikiquote:Village_pump#Language_links_.28interwiki.29_via_Wikidata_are_coming
Wikimedia Commons
[edit]see commons:Commons:Wikidata, commons:Commons:Wikidata_for_media_info
- provides info on Commons properties - check properties Help page to see that accurate/consistent
- could explain on Wikidata template better
- doesn't provide much about importance/value
Wikipedia
[edit]see w:Wikipedia:Wikidata, w:Wikipedia:Wikidata/Workflow, w:Wikipedia:Wikidata/Wikidatans
- lots of good content - especially FAQ/documentation on adding sitelinks and merging items
- explanation of templates? w:Category:Templates_using_data_from_Wikidata
On Meta-Wikimedia
[edit]Content Overhaul
[edit]Nice to haves
[edit]- tie-ins for local project activity - i.e. sitelinks, templates, creating new articles
- tasks? e.g. s:Category:Author_pages_not_connected_to_Wikidata & s:Wikisource:Maintenance_of_the_Month/Wikidata
- example items, pages
- info on the value of Wikidata - why they should care and why they should contribute
- coordinating activity rather than implementation (depending on deployment of sister project)
- getting help - ambassadors, who to talk to - e.g. Wikidata:Wikivoyage#Ambassadors
- resources - toolkits, events, hackathons, etc
portal could be similar to voy:Wikivoyage:Welcome,_Wikipedia?
template?
- introduction - about, value, why
- opportunities/efforts/activities/tasks
- documentation and/or FAQ
- examples items, etc
- development - what's still under discussion/proposal
- getting help - ambassadors
- resources
- see also
