@DVrandecic waiting for ok from you for this.

Note that data access already seems to work – it’s a bit tricky to test without edit rights, but you can parse {{#property:P31|from=Q42}} via the API and get “human” back. But sitelinks don’t work yet AFAICT (Wikidata doesn’t know about wikifunctionswiki yet).

Yeah, I looked at the config for adding WF to Wikidata's list of sitelink suppliers and gave up, sorry. :-( Happy to do this myself if there's docs, or review/+1 if you'd prefer to do it yourself!

Our documentation is at wikitech:WMDE/Wikidata/Enable Client, but I think Add a wiki § Wikidata is the part that’s still missing – wikifunctionswiki doesn’t seem to be in Wikidata’s sites table yet AFAICT.

Adding wmde-wikidata-tech per @ItamarWMDE.

@Jdforrester-WMF doing some house cleaning here, I understand that this was already done according to T342857#9050660 & T343489#9105907?

As messily confirmed on that task, no, only the scary database bit was done, the rest of the steps are outstanding.

@Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE shouldn't the /qqq be 'Label for Wikifunctions' rather than 'Label for Wikidata'? (probably copied from the one above)

You’re right, I guess I didn’t look closely enough and assumed they all said “Label for Wikidata” (as in “to be used related to Wikidata”). Thanks for fixing it already.

Eh, let’s do the backport after all, given that the broken message appears on the enwiki main page above the fold:

Alright, should be done now. (The backported message doesn’t have translations yet, but at least it’s better than nothing.)
