Subject: RE: [Wikisource-l] Lua modules for Wikisource
I've learn by reading the first examples written by the extension developers and, for language syntax, with Google.
Some people in the English Wikipedia have written a tutorial: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Guide_to_Scribbling that is maybe now the best entry point. But, as for everything in the computing world, the best way to learn is to read code and try ;-). Create a module in test2.wikipedia.org and do your tests here.
The most important page is https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Scribunto/Lua_reference_manual that document the library provided by Scribunto. I have it open each time I edit modules.
I didn't know any project to add missing {{Authority Control}} to article of the English Wikipedia. So, I think you can work on it. Thanks!
ThomasI need to verify that ISNI is for People only. I think it might include Corporations too.
PS: Is ISNI only for people? If yes, It would be nice to use a bot to add "person" as GND type to all items with an ISNI id because there are a lot of items in this case according to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Database_reports/Constraint_violations/P213
I can do it if needed.
