Wikidata talk:Curious Facts

You are welcome to ask questions or provide us your feedback here!

Provide a mode to give facts with equiprobability among constraints.

For example constraint A have 10000 violations and B have 10. We want a mode to get result from A and B with a ratio of 1:1 instead of 1000:1. It may be boring if most violations shown are of the same type.--GZWDer (talk) 14:40, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Maybe the nice thing about it is that one tries to fix the constraint (I got twice P492). OTH if there are 1000, maybe it shouldn't appear at all as "curious fact". --- Jura 12:47, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

Ticket for this is here now: phab:T286277 --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk) 10:13, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

"single value constraint" described with "unique"

We used to call the "distinct value" constraint "unique value constraint".

Now I get "postsynaptic congenital myasthenic syndrome has 17 values for Property OMIM ID but it should often be unique." from https://wikidata-analytics.wmcloud.org/app/CuriousFacts .

Not sure if the "single value constraint" should be described with the word "unique".

Note that there is also a problem with the constraint (Property_talk:P492#modified_single_value_constraint), but that's unrelated to this interesting new project. --- Jura 16:46, 21 June 2021 (UTC)

This has been fixed in phab:T285752. --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk) 10:11, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
