Hi all,
We’ve just reached a milestone with the deployment of Wikidata Infoboxes in Wikimedia
Commons categories: there are now over 3 million uses! [1] These infoboxes are completely
multilingual, and they automatically expand as more information is added to Wikidata.
(I think enwp has around 3.4 million infoboxes [2], which we’re getting close to - does
any other Wikipedia have more?)
Thanks,
Mike
Wohoooo! Congratulations to you and everyone who helped make this
happen to improve Commons.
As for are there other wikis who use more:
https://wmdeanalytics.wmflabs.org/WD_percentUsageDashboard/ says
cebuano, english and swedish have more articles in the main namespace
still that make some use of Wikidata's data - not necessarily
infoboxes. Also keep in mind that the number for Commons doesn't take
into account the category namespace so the numbers are significantly
too low.
Cheers
Lydia
