- Newest WikiProjects
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:WikiProjects>:
Wikidata:WikiProject BHL
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_BHL> (books etc from
the Biodiversity Heritage Library <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q172266>
)
- Newest gadgets: derivedstatements.js
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat#Announcing_derivedstatements.js>
adds at the end of all item pages a new button to load inverse statements
- Newest database reports: list of films (चलचित्र) from Nepal
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Movies/lists/films_by_country/Nepal/ne>
Development
- Developing a prototype for usability testing for how the term box
(labels, descriptions, aliases) could work on mobile
- Investigating how we can do the display of items (their label and
sometimes description when linked to in a statement or in listings like
Recent Changes) in a way that is less of an issue for the database
- Working on including the dispatch lag in the maxlag API to make it
easier for bots to see when they should stop editing because of performance
reasons (phabricator:T194950 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T194950>)
- Working on adding a Lua function to check if an item is a
subclass/instance of another one (phabricator:T179155
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T179155>)
- Created an API that returns constraint violations for an item in TTL
format in preparation for making constraint violations queryable in the
query service (phabricator:T194762
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T194762>)
- Started planning for support for Senses
- Added more helpful text on Special:NewLexeme to make it easier to
understand what information is required (phabricator:T193602
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T193602>)
- Working on pre-filling the spelling variant for a new Form's
representation (phabricator:T195708
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T195708>)
- Worked on showing the Lemma of a Lexeme instead of just its ID in
Special:AllPages, Recent Changes and diffs (phabricator:T191600
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T191600>, phabricator:T195382
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T195382>, phabricator:T195511
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T195511>)
- Made the representation of a Form in a diff link to the Form (
phabricator:T195512 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T195512>)
- Fixed an issue on the Wikipedias and co when a statement in an item
that was used there linked to a Form or Lexeme (phabricator:T195615
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T195615>)
- Made the "publish" button stay disabled for a Lexeme's header when
there is nothing to save (phabricator:T196342
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T196342>)
