Hello,
We at the consulting company WikiWorks are neither Wikibase users nor
developers (other than having created some tools around SPARQL queries),
but we do think quite a lot about user interface relating to structured
data, especially within MediaWiki. Recently, we have been thinking about
how to improve the Wikibase interface, to get around its limitations - such
as the lack of on-wiki queries. We realized that there are already tools
that can help with some of these challenges, and other tools that it would
be a good idea to create. We put all our thoughts together into one
proposed suite, which we named "Enhanced Wikibase". You can read about it
here:
https://wikiworks.com/enhanced-wikibase.html
Hopefully these ideas will be helpful to anyone trying to make their
Wikibase installation easier to use. Any questions or comments are also
welcome.

Dear all,
currently, i am using wikibase for my own research purpose.
I would like to know if it is possible to reconfigure the URL structure of the items I create in Wikibase. What I'm interested in is the pagination of Wikibase items (not sure if that's the right description), and I gather that my local Wikibase items are created in the form of wiki/item:Q123 when they are created, whereas Wikidata's items are created as wiki/Q123. ex: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q150
As a user, I prefer the latter format, is there any way to configure this URL structure in LocalSettings.php?
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I cannot locate the page with releases of Wikibase and their changelog. Can
you please provide me the link?
Kind regards,
Georgios
