Description

As an editor I want to link to a Sense in another Lexeme by searching for it's Lemma in order to record synonyms and other data like it.

Problem:
Adding a value that is another Sense requires you to enter the ID of the Sense. Entering the Lemma only returns "No match found".

Example:
for the sense on Geige (de), start adding a sense statement, select the "synonym" property and then type "Violine". I would expect to find Violine (de), but instead it says "No match was found".

BDD
GIVEN a Lexeme
WHEN making a new statement that links to a Sense
THEN the corresponding Sense can be found based on its ID as well as the Lemma of its Lexeme

Acceptance criteria:

  • it is possible to find a Sense based on its Lexeme's Lemma
  • it remains possible to find a Sense value based on its full ID

Event Timeline

+1 to this needing a fix. Adding synonyms etc. to sense is extremely laborious now, and only the most stubborn would actually do so.

We are losing a lot of potential enriching of Lexemes.

I could use this for Wikidata for web assuming it would work via wbsearchentities. (I would say as documented)
