Epic
As a user, I want to have more flexibility to choose images or add or subtract properties from the databox template.
Background
To meet the 2025 objective of "The awareness and understanding of Wikidata integrations among Wikimedia projects and communities increases." After researching and speaking with community members, we identified the databox as a tool that can improve the transparency of Wikidata's data in Wikimedia projects.
Acceptance Criteria:
Complete implementing flexibility/UI improvements
Test the changes and check that they did not cause any regressions
Databox remains generic (e.g. not tightly bound to rtl/ltr languages etc and usable in all languages)
Success Metrics
Internal Metrics
- Updated databox documentation translated in 10 languages by the end of 2025 - 5 "larger" languages and 5 "smaller" languages
- X number of people find the new databox documentation clear and useful (could be qualitative or quantitative. maybe we can add something to the infobox e.g. a pulsating dot if possible)
Reporting Metrics
- Clicks on the "From Wikidata" link from the infobox - Baseline zero
- Increase in the number of databoxes used across wikipedias - baseline
Exploratory Metrics
- X% increase in the adoption of the "advanced" databox features - i.e. editors are selecting preferred properties and images
