It's unclear to me what data the model trains on when looking at item A when claim X is removed and claim Y is added.

ChristianKl added a comment to T219037: Display constraint clarifications in violation messages.

I would prefer wikitext over normal text, so that it would be "Use {{unknown value}} instead of anonymous when the author is unknown." in the example. New users might not know what "unknown value" happens to be and the wikitext template gives the user the link to the page that explains it in more detail.

@MisterSynergy : The point of restrictions is that a user should not create a sitelink to a redirect without explicitly intending to do so. This was supposed to counteract the concerns that a lot of sitelinks to redirects will be created in a fashion that's problematic for Wikidata which some people in the RfC believed.

Hi @William_Cheselden this task has a pretty high priority and will likely be tackled within the next few weeks. About your general question on why this takes so long: The main challenge is that there are so many important things to do but we have only limited development resources to actually do them. This is why we tried to get relatively small tasks (like this one) done whenever a developer has some time outside of the big sprints. Unfortunately, this hasn't always worked well and we are already thinking about making improvements to the process and making it easier to follow.

@Bugreporter
If you say "we should tag" then who do you think should do the tagging? If you expect Wikipedia editors to do that, how do you think they learn that they are not supposed to put VALIDREDIRECT on redirects that are not eligible for an independent Wikidata item? If I would be a Wikipedia editor and see VALIDREDIRECT on one redirect page, my natural impression would be that VALIDREDIRECT is supposed to be put on all redirect pages that conform with the redirect policy of the Wikipedia.

Re-running the bot costs performance but not a kind of performance that matters. It doesn't increase page loading time and most of the bot activity is reading not writing so it also doesn't go produce problems with creating too many edits.

ChristianKl added a comment to T285810: Enable a method of recording fair use images on Wikidata.

There's no such thing as a fair use image. There's fair use of images but no image has a property of being a fair use image. Integrating images from other Wikipedia's this way has the potential of making some of their images uses that are currently fair use not fair use anymore because it adds uses to the images. Such a functionality would infringe on the independence of other Wikiprojects. Hosting an image for the purpose of being referenced from elsewhere is not a purpose that's protected under US fair use law.

It would be great to have a getValidStatements() function that works the same as getAllStatements() but filters out deprecated statements. Deprecated Wikidata statements are often of no use outside of Wikidata and usecases like listing the children of a person outside of Wikidata shouldn't list deprecated children. Without a decidated function there are plenty fo cases where users will forgot to filter out deprecated statements and then show Wikipedia users data Wikidata knows to be false as valid data.

Ordering is generally useful (but can create issues as pointed out by @MichaelSchoenitzer) but it doesn't help a user to understand the concept of deprecated statements and why we have wrong data on Wikidata that we mark as deprecated.
The ordering issues could be worked out by allowing ordering to order statements with higher point in time over statements with lower point in time. I'm unsure about whether it makes sense to program a new ordering solution that only takes in account ranks but not qualifiers (and a syntax that allows Wikidata users to specify which qualify should affect the ranking in what way).

I think the necessity of having an account is comparable to the necessity to register for a mailing list to be able to post it or receive mail that currently exists. In cases where a person writes an email that isn't associated to an account they could get an automated reply telling them about the issue that requests them to resend the mail from an account that's registered to a Wikimedia account.

When it comes to the limitation of "not subscribed to the thread", I don't understand the point.

ChristianKl added a comment to T179678: page level opt-in and opt-out for "a link was made" echo notification.

I created this as wishlist item in https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2017_Community_Wishlist_Survey/Watchlists/Automatic_notification_of_new_links_to_a_page_should_be_able_to_be_activated/deactivated_on_a_per_page_basis .
It's worth noting that these kinds of notifications get created more often on Wikidata due to it being about linked data. When 10,000 notifications that Ijon gets on Hebrew Wikipedia for having created "jews" seems a lot it's nothing compared to the >1,000,000 for the person who created "scientific article" on Wikidata.

@Agabi10 I don't think that's an issue in practice. Wikipedia tells a user on top of the page that they are redirected. I have created dozen's of redirects and haven't seen one getting removed.

It might be possible to simply change the https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Template:Rfd_links template. If it's changed it might also be helpful to include the item description, P31/P279 when available, a statement count and an identifier count.

Okay, I think I understand the problem. It seems we would need to move the label inside the property proposal template for it to be accessible in the same way the description is accessible.

ChristianKl added a comment to T138295: [Task] Change Special:NewProperty to not have a datatype selected by default.

The standard way to create properties seems to be to click on "Create" in the property proposal. That automatically copies the description and the datatype.
It's supposed to also copy the property name and actually copies the name of the property proposal page into the name field (when the name isn't changed in the property proposal discussion that's usually the name that the property should have).
