Hi all,
The Guidelines for sourcing statements [1] had a 72% support. There are still two issues that were raised during the discussion that need to be addressed: - Sources used in Wikipedia (templates cite doi cite book, etc): should they be stored in Wikidata to be shared across all Wikipedias? - Source entity type: since we now know that there is going a specific type of item that will not have links to Wikipedia and that is somehow different from normal items, would it be meaningful to create this new entity type?
This second issue was already discussed some time ago, but back then was not very clear how the guidelines would look like. With the guidelines completed, maybe now the perception has changed. The new RfC can be found here: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Requests_for_comment/Source_items_and...
Cheers, Micru
