Development

  • Wikidata Query Service:
    • The WMF Search Platform team is putting the finishing touches on the new Query Service servers that contain the two parts of the split graph.
    • We are analyzing which percentage of current queries are better served by other systems like the REST API or search.
  • Wikimedia projects integration:
    • We have worked on moving the Wikidata Item link out of the toolbox section of the sidebar of an article. It has been rolled out to the first wikis: ukwiki, hewiki, fawiki (phab:T66315)
    • We are working on decreasing the amount of irrelevant changes from Wikidata in the watchlist and recent changes on Misplaced Pages and co by correcting the tracking behaviour of the Lua function mw.wikibase.entity:getSitelink() (phab:T295356)
  • Wikibase REST API: We continued improving errors and error messages.
