| ===Wikidata as Hub=== | |||
| One way of looking at Wikidata relates it to the ] concept, around for about as long as Misplaced Pages, and realised in dozens of distributed Web institutions. It sees Wikidata as supplying central, encyclopedic coverage of ], and looks ahead to greater support for "federated queries" that draw together information from all parts of the emerging network of websites. | |||
| ] | |||
| Another perspective might be likened to a photographic negative of that one: Wikidata as an already-functioning Web hub. Over half of its properties are identifiers on other websites. These are Wikidata's "external links", to use Misplaced Pages terminology: one type for the DOI of a publication, another for the VIAF page of an author, with thousands more such. Wikidata links out to sites that are not nominally part of the semantic web, effectively drawing them into a larger system. The crosswalk possibilities of the systematic construction of these links was covered in Issue 8. | |||
| ] speaks of them as kept "minimal, meritable, and directly relevant to the article." Here Wikidata finds more of a function. On viaf.org one can type a VIAF author identifier into the search box, and find the author page. The , these days including Open Street Map, Scholia etc., allows this kind of lookup. The by {{noping|maxlath}} takes a major step further, allowing both lookup and crosswalk to be encoded in a single URL. | |||

| ===Milestone for mix'n'match=== | |||
| Around the time in February when Wikidata clicked past item Q50000000, another milestone was reached: the tool uploaded its 1000th dataset. Concisely defined by its author, {{noping|Magnus Manske}}, it works "to match entries in external catalogs to Wikidata". The total number of entries is now well into eight figures, and more are constantly being added: a couple of new catalogs each day is normal. | |||
| ] | |||
| Since the , mix'n'match has gradually come to play a significant part in adding statements to Wikidata. Particularly in areas with the flavour of ], but datasets can of course be about practically anything. There is a catalog on skyscrapers, and two on spiders. | |||

| == ho == | |||
| These days mix'n'match can be used in numerous modes, from the relaxed gamified click through a catalog looking for matches, with prompts, to the fantastically useful and often demanding search across all catalogs. I'll type that again: you can search 1000+ datasets from the simple box at the top right. The drop-down menu top left offers "creation candidates", Magnus's personal favourite. ] for more. | |||
| hi still there ] (]) 09:20, 6 October 2024 (UTC) | |||
| For the Wikidatan, a key point is that these matches, however carried out, add statements to Wikidata if, and naturally only if, there is a Wikidata property associated with the catalog. For everyone, however, the hands-on experience of deciding of what is a good match is an education, in a scholarly area, biographical catalogs being particularly fraught. Underpinning recent rapid progress is an open infrastructure for scraping and uploading. | |||
