Amir,

thank you for your feedback! But after checking the Wikidata API, I don't know how to get around the API limitations. PWB seems to simply call two API commands: wbremoveclaims (https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=wbremoveclaims ) and wbsetclaim (https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=wbsetclaim ) - so it seems that the API itself doesn't allow setting more than one claim with one command. But I've seen other bots doing multiple property changes within one edit (so I think one API call), for example https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3AGasteinertal_vom_Zitt... so there must be a different way besides MediaInfo.addClaim().

Greetings, Florian

Hi, From reading the source code, I can't find anything that would allow it but adding a patch to make it happen shouldn't be hard. On top of that, you can introduce it in your script directly and hit the API from there. I know it's not great but it would work.

Hi all,

i'm working on a bot whose task is to add some SDC claims to the
mediainfo of Commons file pages. While there's a method
removeClaims()
(see
https://doc.wikimedia.org/pywikibot/master/api_ref/pywikibot.html#pywikibot.MediaInfo.removeClaims)

to remove multiple claims in one step, its counterpart
addClaim() (see
https://doc.wikimedia.org/pywikibot/master/api_ref/pywikibot.html#pywikibot.MediaInfo.addClaim)

doesn't accept a list of claims to add. This results in separate
API
calls (?) for each single claim top add. Is there a factual
reason for
that difference? Is there a different way to add multiple SDC
claims in
one edit step?

Thanks in advance!

Florian

ah, great - thanks again - that was the "missing link"...

datarepo = pywikibot.site.DataSite('commons', 'commons') media_identifier = 'M{}'.format(page.pageid) # thanks to https://byabbe.se/2020/09/15/writing-structured-data-on-commons-with-python dict = {'id': media_identifier } datarepo.editEntity(dict, <json-payload>, summary='<my summary>')

works fine!

you need to use wbeditentity or some restbase equivalent.
