Hi,
I have two slight improvement suggestions for the interface of the Wikidata Query Service (based on both my experience when I do SPARQL workshops):
- When there is a basic syntax error in the SPARQL code, would it be possible to add a warning sign on the left of line where there is an error (like there is on https://data.bnf.fr/current/sparql.html , for instance if you forgot the "?" before a variable name there is bright red exclamation mark next to the line with an infotip). It feels more intuitive than the current underlining and highlighting (which is often after the problem).
- The left menu bar feel could maybe be improved/removed/reworked. The "example" icon is a duplicate already on the top bar and the "short URL" (without results) feel strange here as the other short URL (with results) are in the bottom bar (with a different icon :/ ), they should be together or at least closer. Plus, from what I've seen, the other icons are more or less never used. So: Would it be possible to only have two bars (top and bottom for instance) instead of three (top, left, bottom)?
