We have just deployed the entity suggester. This
helps you with
suggesting properties. So when you now add a new statement to an item
it will suggest what should most likely be added to that item. One
example: You are on an item about a person but it doesn't have a date
of birth yet. Since a lot of other items about persons have a date of
birth it will suggest you also add one to this item.
This is a great idea, but I've just tried it on Q4810979 (about an
historic building) and it prompted me for a date of birth, gender,
taxon rank or taxon name.
Teething troubles?
We still need to tweak it a bit here and there, yeah. We're working on
that right now. Also it will get smarter as more statements are added
to items.
I hope tweaking will suffice. At least it seems that there is already
enough data to find slightly more related related properties ;-). Here
is the list of properties that I get for the two classes of Q4810979
(recall that I compute related properties for each class).
(1) "historic house museum"
http://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-exports/miga/?classes#_cat=Classes/Id=Q20…
Related properties: English Heritage list number, OS grid reference,
owned by, inspired by, coordinate location, visitors per year, Commons
category, architect, mother house, manager/director, country,
commissioned by, architectural style, MusicBrainz place ID, use, date of
foundation or creation, street
(2) "Grade I listed building"
http://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-exports/miga/?classes#_cat=Classes/Id=Q15…
Related properties: English Heritage list number, masts, Minor Planet
Center observatory code, home port, coordinate location, OS grid
reference, mother house, architect, manager/director, Emporis ID,
MusicBrainz place ID, country, architectural style, visitors per year,
Commons category, Structurae ID (structure), officially opened by,
floors above ground, inspired by, religious order, number of platforms,
street, owned by, diocese
These are computed fully automatically from the data, with no manual
filtering or user input. But don't get me wrong -- great work! Brilliant
to have such a thing integrated into the UI. In any case, my algorithm
for computing the related properties is certainly very different from
theirs; I am sure it also has its glitches.
