Is this the same as Q172980?

@Andycyca: No: one describes a film genre (Q172980) and one the broader genre that includes the film genre, alongside other mediums. Sadads (talk) 15:27, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Sadads: Thanks! Then there's a lot of work to do on the individual wikipedia articles, because this isn't made clear in some of them --Andycyca (talk) 22:18, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Andycyca: Yeah, I keep running into cross-language scope problems when working on literary genres: back in the day when they were "just interwiki links", people were a bit more lax about the connections between concepts. Now with Wikidata, there is a lot less room for ambiguity, and we need to make sure that multitopical pages, get interwikied properly on Wikidata and concepts get split :P Sadads (talk) 02:52, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Sadads: Any chance of making even a small evento for it? Something like Asia Month --Andycyca (talk) 03:44, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Andycyca: Oh gosh! I am worn out running http://1lib1ref.org and I might try doing another campaign for my WMF/GLAM job at some other point, I don't want to run another in volunteer time :P You would be great for that! Sadads (talk) 03:52, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Sadads: Hm, yes, I hadn't think of that, maybe I should run a contest like that. I'll get to the blackboard. Any pointers are most welcome! --Andycyca (talk) 06:10, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Andycyca: Happy to consult! I think their needs to be some kind of gamefication or contestization, where a list of actions can easily be turned into something fun, useful models include: Wikidata:Europeana Art History Challenge or the Africa Destubathon.
