@Lydia_Pintscher with Catalan and Polish looking to land on Thursday, 23-June-2016, how would you suggest we go about enabling it across the board for the mobile web Wikipedias (except French, where consensus was against it) ? For example, if we were to enable it for all of the mobile web Wikipedias (except French) on one of the days in 5-July - 7-July would you be able to support the communication ahead of the prospective date and during its enablement (e.g., in case there are requests to turn it off in some Wikipedias)?
I would be very surprised if every other Wikipedia but French would be smooth sailing. So I recommend a more staged rollout.
@Lydia_Pintscher, thanks. This suggests to me we'd want to do a wave rollout over the course of a month or something to that effect.
"except French, where consensus was against it": this is wrong. There is simply NO consensus about it since the question has never been asked.
FR Wiki has a list of part where Wikidata is allowed and part where its not. Everything in between is in a gray area which is the case for this feature. See the policy in French.
I (or someone else) will launch a poll or RFC on the topic in the upcoming days.
@Scoopfinder hmm, I am assuming you followed the conversation here https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipédia:Le_Bistro/21_novembre_2016#Affichage_des_descriptions_de_Wikidata_sur_la_version_mobile_de_Wikip.C3.A9dia no?
