Any chance you're likely to bring the Representative of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (Q65494714) data up to date, or if not, can you remember how you gathered it? I'm guessing from some of the URLs that there is/was an XML file, but those links don't seem to be working any more, and I'm drawing a blank on finding an equivalent now. I can find CSV files, but those don't include dates; the site is awkward to scrape; and looking up the end time (P582) manually for everyone who's left office since your update is a fairly large undertaking.

Hi Teester, could you add property P11220 (fruit color) to the script DisplayColourSwatches, so that colors are displayed for that property like they are for P2827 (flower color)?

Hi AdamSeattle,

I've added P11220 to the userscript now.

Hello Teester,

I'm the main maintainer of WikibaseIntegrator (https://github.com/LeMyst/WikibaseIntegrator), a python library to interact with Wikibases.

I would like to implement your CompareShape and Shape classes from https://github.com/Teester/entityshape into my project. It's OK for you ?

(It's a copy of a message I posted on https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Teester)

Best Regards,

Hi Myst,

That would be fine by me. The only thing I would ask is that if you make any improvements to the classes (and there is definitely improvements that could be made!) you allow me to add them to the original project.

Hi, I think the API needs to be restarted. It returns 500 since the recent VPS cloud issue.

I would like to be a co-maintainer for the tool in toolforge. Would that be ok? Please add me in that case.

Hi Teester, you are continuing to do great work on Irish placenames, which is helping the Irish Wikipedia a great deal, so thank you! One thing I'm seeing though are many instances where multiple Logainm.ie IDs are being added to a single WD item, like Q104359986 for example. I'm not an expert on every case but these appear to be distinct townlands based on geography (and more generally the fact that the placenames commission is generally quite careful). Just want to see if this is a consequence of your scripts that might be fixed.

Hi,

Could you add a bit of documentation on top of User:Teester/CheckShex.js and User:Teester/EntityShape.js? (they seem very similar and I don't remember what each one is doing exactly)

Hi Vigneron,

I've added a description of what each script does to the top of each script.

Perfect, thanks a lot!

Hi Teester,

Thanks for all of your work on Irish placenames in Wikidata. I've noticed between 800 and 900 items where you set an Irish name with a broken diacritic; see for example Q104354280 or Q104360281. If I could get you a list of the problematic QIDs, would you be able to use your scripts to correct the Irish names?

Best

Hi Kevin,

Sorry about that. Looks like an encoding issue with letters with fadas. I have a list with 1021 results for labels at https://w.wiki/5He6 and a list of 448 results for descriptions at https://w.wiki/5He4. I'll work on fixing these as soon as I can.

Hi Teester,

In September, we're organizing the Data Quality Days, a series of events about data quality on Wikidata. We're having a session where tools related to data quality are presented, on September 14th at 16:00 UTC, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in presenting some of the scripts you wrote, such as ConstraintSummary and CheckShex.

The session will be quite informal, it will take place in a Jitsi room with ~20 participants, and you would have up to 10min to present and demo the tools.

If you're interested, feel free to add yourself directly in the schedule under the related session, or let me know if you encounter an issue.

Thanks in advance!

Hello. I was reading the page Wikidata:WikiProject every politician/European Union/Q8880/positions, How the last column has the option "(see list)"? I was trying to do the same to Wikidata:WikiProject every politician/Cyprus/Cyprus Goverment/positions but I wasn't able.

(I have arleady created the lists. For example, Wikidata:WikiProject every politician/Cyprus/Cyprus Goverment/positions/Q65600632).

Hi,

you wrote a message at User talk:Fthierygeo, thanks for the information and your work. I am currently at the reorganisation of my Ogham data, so this would fit perfectly. I would change my "Ogham Site" items only as instance of "Ogham Site". I will than link to "your" Irish townlands, which have a reference to Logainm ID (P5097) and also hopefully to Open Street Map (OSM). I got my information from https://www.townlands.ie/ and the OSM ID is very important for the project, so if you do not have included the OSM identifier to the townlands, this would be important for me.

Cheers!
