Load the property order from Wikidata on Wikimedia wikis
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Right now we have one property order page on each wiki that has article placeholder enabled (like https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Wikibase-SortedProperties).

I think so, yes. This task is about setting up the fetching from Wikidata only (probably with the data we have right now), the list can be changed later then.

@hoo do you have the rights to create such a page on Wikidata? Or should I chase someone doing that for us?
I just remember, we should probably open a task to propagate that the ordering can be changed IIRC none touched any of the MediaWiki:Wikibase-SortedProperties on the Wikis yet. (Should wait with the promotion until it's centralized though.)
