Features

Gadgets

"The Gadgets extension provides a way for users to pick JavaScript or CSS based "gadgets" that other wiki users provide."

See Extension:Gadgets instructions on how to install

See Special:Gadgets on wikidata
See MediaWiki:Gagdgets-definition on wikidata
Check Special:Version on wikidata to see if gadgets are installed.

EasyQuery

EasyQuery.js gadget, needs to be updated for the query endpoint, at the very least. Can be done manually to start.

Customizing the menu

"Customizing the menu"
edit the sidebar, go to "/wiki/MediaWiki:Sidebar"
- MediaWiki:Sidebar

** Special:NewItem|New item
** Special:NewProperty|New property

User rights and namespaces

Constraints handler

wikibase constraints work (meaning when you go to an item page, the constraints show up; will need to test myself)

Links on Wikibase installs

Add the following setting to LocalSettings.php:

$wgWBRepoSettings['formatterUrlProperty'] = 'P49';

where formatter URL (P49) depends on the instance (P49 on wiki.personaldata.io)

See here for reference.

Scripting extensions

Scribunto
ParserFunctions
test for ParserFunctions: this should NOT display code.
test for Lua here.
Include the following three extensions for easier editing.
Wikidata client and Lua

Embed videos

EmbedVideo extension

(redundant with the Widgets extension, possibly)

Query prefixes

need to add as default prefix in the query service:

PREFIX pdio: <http://wiki.personaldata.io/entity/>
PREFIX pdiot: <http://wiki.personaldata.io/prop/direct/>

For reference, this is current list:

PREFIX wd: <http://www.wikidata.org/entity/>
PREFIX wdt: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/direct/>
PREFIX wikibase: <http://wikiba.se/ontology#>
PREFIX p: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/>
PREFIX ps: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/statement/>
PREFIX pq: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/qualifier/>
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>
PREFIX bd: <http://www.bigdata.com/rdf#>

Questions

Is it possible to have multiple namespaces for items?
how do we fix autocomplete? (wait until default prefix is set up properly)
why item for each property on wikidata? what is the use case?
canonical way to refer from an item to a template? could be used to define ShEx --> Template and create ShapeMap
hold properties and their alignment on wikidata/registry
