Works now: https://wikidata.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Lexeme:L57547

re-open. I have not seen the other subtasks "language-data" and ULS.

@srishakatux: Any chance you know how to move this and T381061, T380975, T380964 and T381060 forward?

@Lydia_Pintscher I checked with team. If someone from the Wikidata team can make a patch and ensure they include a link to autonym source in the description, we can help with code review and merging.

Thank you for tagging this task with good first task for Wikimedia newcomers!

Newcomers often may not be aware of things that may seem obvious to seasoned contributors, so please take a moment to reflect on how this task might look to somebody who has never contributed to Wikimedia projects.

A good first task is a self-contained, non-controversial task with a clear approach. It should be well-described with pointers to help a completely new contributor, for example it should clearly point to the codebase URL and provide clear steps to help a contributor get set up for success. We've included some guidelines at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/good_first_task/ !

Thank you for helping us drive new contributions to our projects <3
