@Edoderoo I noticed that the log file linked in the edit summaries seems to be very outdated. Are there somewhere more up-to-date logs available?

@Lydia_Pintscher and @Lea_Lacroix_WMDE please see the new documentation at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Installation#Enable_Sitelinks and also note the corresponding removed section in the advanced config to prevent duplication: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Wikibase/Installation/Advanced_configuration&type=revision&diff=3204730&oldid=3203259&diffmode=source

Nicely done, clear and helpful.

Thank you 🙏

• In section 2 ("Localize your own groups") there seems to be a reference annotation after MediaWiki:Wikibase-sitelinks-yourgroupnamehere. It seems not to be linked to anything.

The reference should be shown at the very bottom of the page. At least it does for me? 🤔

• In section 4.1 it might be good to add a hint for the relevant field in case it's not clear from the labels, something like: "in your wiki and try to link an existing page (field Site ID) on one of the above configured sites to an existing Item (field ID). "

Good idea! I've amended that line.

In principle, the option to move the popup into an extra overlay already exists: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OOUI/Concepts#Overlays
The challenge is now to find where to set this option.

The z-index: 0 has been deliberately done in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/skins/Vector/+/178086 to mitigate a security issue: T40848

May I suggest to work on the documentation on higher level? I would start from scratch writing down all the relevant topics in the config (like they are sections heading), choose if they belong to Basic or Advanced and then fill the content. To a newcomer like me, the documentation looks only partly coordinated and very often just a bunch of notes. Much of the text can and should be reused, but the structure can be improved, I think. Does in your opinion make sense to start such an effort? Maybe I can help as well with the notes I took along the way.

@lucamauri Your feedback is very welcome and helpful. Thank you!

An almost identical example already exists at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Sites_table#Managing_the_sites_table, so I mage the link there much more prominent in order to not duplicate documentation. Would that work for you, @Ladsgroup?

Please have a look at the draft at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Michael_Gro%C3%9Fe_(WMDE)/WikibaseSiteLinksDoku . This draft is intended to be added to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Installation as a same-level headline after the Verify your installation section.

I don't know loads about this but I wanted to ask if this need could be met by our existing support with -x-. E.g. could you use rm-x-Q688873 for rm-rumgr?

Yes, as far as I can tell, this is now implemented for all use-cases :)

Strange discovery:
A search for Änderung isn't showing a snippet: https://wikidata-shex.wmflabs.org/w/index.php?search=%C3%84nderung&title=Special%3ASearch&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns640=1
A search for Testen is showing a snippet: https://wikidata-shex.wmflabs.org/w/index.php?search=Testen&title=Special%3ASearch&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns0=1&ns640=1

Note for verification: This might need a rebuild of the search index and it could be that it only works on newly edited pages correctly.

Intuitively, I would like to see both approaches done:

1. always generate the same, reproducible JSON without empty language keys
2. don't save if the diff is empty

Turns out even en.wikipedia.org is affected as this is a problem in the vector template. Patch coming.

This is also broken on wikidata.org :/ ==> Adding campsite.

That <h1> comes from MediaWiki itself, we are only handling its content. So this seems to be a configuration issue?

I think we might be referring to different things? On my system, dir="auto" on the <table> makes the table columns go right-to-left, with the “edit” link on the left. But the whole table is still left-aligned on the page due to the content language – is that what you meant?

Setting the dir="auto" attribute on the <table> tag on https://wikidata-shex.wmflabs.org/wiki/Schema:O2?setlang=he doesn't change anything for me. Which feels plausible, since the lang attribute on the parent element is still en?
