Module talk:Lexeme-en

Whath's the purpose of this module? --Infovarius (talk) 13:32, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

@GZWDer, Okkn, Infovarius: minimal documentation for this module would be welcome.

A variant is Module:Lexeme-ja by User:Okkn, no documentation as well.

From what I could find, it seems the Modules are converting human friendly wikicode such as {{#invoke:Lexeme-ja|verbForms|勝つ|かつ|ta-go}} into rich JSON with the correct Qid for languages, part-of-speech, and other lexeme-oriented properties. The JSON is then feed to a personal script : User:GZWDer/newentity.js or its fork User:Okkn/jsonLexeme.js. This script creates a Lexeme page if none or edit one if one exists.

A 2020 discussion in Topic:Uuej6btl02kulxh9 seems to indicate those a new ecosystem has arrived based on Wikidata:Wikidata Lexeme Forms by User:Lucas Werkmeister:

“Wikidata Lexeme Forms tool which allows it to be used as part of a solution to automatically generate forms for a lexeme: some tool, user script, or other code generates a URL that contains the form representations, sends the user there, and then the tool lets them create the lexeme with a single click or button press. See the documentation for more information. This basically fulfills the role that is currently served by User:Okkn/jsonLexeme.js or User:GZWDer/newentity.js.”

GZWDer, Okkn, could you review my POV so we start to have a formal explanation for this tool ? Yug (talk) 09:21, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

@Yug, Lucas Werkmeister: The issue of Wikidata:Wikidata Lexeme Forms are

1. adding a new template requests intervention by tool developer and
2. it does not fill inflected forms automatically.

Also why this tool is called newentity is it intends to support templates for creating all sorts of entities, not only lexemes.--GZWDer (talk) 12:45, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
