Hello Joe,
By batching requests, we mean minimizing the number of requests you need to make.
For example, if you're reading data with the wbgetentities endpoint, try to request the maximum number of IDs you are able to at a time.
If you’re adding data, avoid making repeated wbsetclaim requests; instead put all the claims you want to add in a single wbeditentity request.
I believe that this is supported by the Wikidata-Toolkit, although I'm no expert in it. In the examples, you can see how to batch together reading a list of properties rather than reading them one by one. ( https://github.com/Wikidata/Wikidata-Toolkit-Examples/blob/master/src/exampl... )
Cheers,
The Wikidata Team

Thanks very much for the announcement. When you say "make sure to batch requests", can you give some detail on exactly what this means? Is this something supported by Wikidata-Toolkit Java Library ( https://github.com/Wikidata/Wikidata-Toolkit )? _______________________________________________ Wikibaseug mailing list -- wikibaseug@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe send an email to wikibaseug-leave@lists.wikimedia.org
