User:Klovija[edit]
Please would you kindly look at the user contributions for the above? Since they are apparently a brand new user, it is odd that they have almost consistently confined their edits to depicts statements, and have got the entries all wrong due (presumably) to a language barrier. I am wondering whether they are a previously banned editor in a new sock? I have attempted to correct their statements which appear to be in several languages (Slovenian, Arabic etc.) plus some mis-spelt and misunderstood English, but I am no expert on the depicts system. But if they are going to continue this behaviour, we can't use all our time reverting everything. Storye book (talk) 17:19, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- Storye book, I agree, ocassional wrong depict statement is could happen but most of his seems bad. I think this might be case of vandalism and reported it at Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Vandalism. --Jarekt (talk) 16:39, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Could you put on your Admin hat and do something about it? — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 16:42, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Jeff G., I could, but I have not dealt with vandalism cases for a while and do not remember the procedure, proper warning templates, etc. Also I am not 100% sure it was intentional and could use second opinion. So it seems easier to leave it to "professionals". --Jarekt (talk) 17:03, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Jarek, any idea why Category:Artworks with digital representation of missing same main subject is full with books that don't use {{Artwork}}? Multichill (talk) 21:58, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Multichill, {{Artwork}} and {{Book}} templates are both based on Module:Artwork, so they share 99% of the code. I guess someone added digital representation of (P6243) to them but not main subject (P921), so they landed in that maintenance category. I was not doing much of SDC adding lately, and some of those maintenance categories got quite big. --Jarekt (talk) 00:02, 25 December 2023 (UTC)

QuickStatements in Template:Information[edit]
Hi Jarekt. I was wondering if you could explain a little bit how, where and why the QuickStatement metadata as generated by/in Template:Information is being used. QuickStatements use display:none'd information but as external systems do not that display:none into account, it ends up in Google and other systems. It also pollutes the scraped data that is used for things like MediaViewer. So if I have a better understanding of it, then I hope that I can suggest some improvements. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 11:09, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- @TheDJ: The system of QuickStatements tags is managed by Module:TagQS, and the Module:Information is not creating or reading them (at the moment). Those tags are used mostly to pass information from I18n templates used by {{Artwork}} or {{Book}}. Lets pick an example: File:'Courtesan Playing the Samisen' by Isoda Koryusai, c. 1785.jpg. It has {{Artwork}} template with bunch of smaller templates:
- Each one of those templates provide internationalized wikitext displayed in a given field, each one of them also generates QS tags that provide the same data in language independent way. The encoding is very close of what a QuickStatement would be to add the same data to Wikidata. So for example, this file's Creator templates adds
<div style="display: none;">artist QS:P170,Q3155497</div>to wikitext, which is picked up by Module:Artwork. In case given object does not have Wikidata item or existing item does not have creator (P170) property than Module:Artwork can provide one click way to create new Wikidata item or add properties to the existing one. You can test it by clicking
icon. So if {{Information}} template calls {{Other date}} or {{Creator}} than there might be some QS tags floating in the Wikicode, but {{Information}} template does not look for them. The same templates in infoboxes supported by Module:Artwork and Module:Creator modules, might be used to add metadata to Wikidata. Hope that explains things a bit. Let me know is some parts are not clear. --Jarekt (talk) 01:40, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-02[edit]
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- mediawiki2latex is a tool that converts wiki content into the formats of LaTeX, PDF, ODT, and EPUB. The code now runs many times faster due to recent improvements. There is also an optional Docker container you can install on your local machine.
The way that Random pages are selected has been updated. This will slowly reduce the problem of some pages having a lower chance of appearing. [1]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 January. It will be on all wikis from 11 January (calendar). [2][3]
