Wikidata "Duplicate references" gadget hangs on saving copied reference
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

Using the "Duplicate references" gadget, when I copy a reference and select "insert reference", the "saving" status message appears but the save never completes.

It seems the reference is correctly copied to the new statement but the actual "publish" step does not complete: if I add another reference manually while the "saving" status is displayed on the copied reference, both the manual and copied references are correctly published.

This problem was discussed on Wikidata Project Chat https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Wikidata:Project_chat&oldid=1020965740#%22Duplicate_references%22_gadget_hangs and confirmed to be a problem by three editors.

Very very likely

Yup, it uses wikibase.store.(CachingEntityStore|ApiEntityStore) That has been dropped. The code: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-DuplicateReferences.js

@matej_suchanek Is this something you want to have a poke at?
@Ladsgroup What should be used instead?

Just an idea cant User:Matěj_Suchánek/moveClaim.js be changed to support copy the reference it still works.... and today allows moving claims across items....

Its purpose is (surprisingly) to move/copy claims. Why reinvent the wheel? We just need to have this one fixed.

Hello Everybody,
Someone could explain us why a so usefull tools is out of order for a so long time?
The information quality in Wikidata can be (is already) impact by this.
I am a no tech user. I can imagine that it much more complex as I imagine, but just give us news.
Thanks in advance.
Baptiste
