My dream solution for some of those issues with integration of Wikipedia
and Wikidata is letting people edit Wikidata without leaving Wikipedia
(or Wikivoyage, or whatever).
This is not quite a dream, for sitelinks. We already have an in-place dialog
for adding sitelinks: mysteriously, when there is already a sitelink, the
dialog is replaced by a frustrating link to the Wikidata item, which
requires an entire page load and countless clicks.
The issue with doing this when there are several sitelinks is that
people will unknowingly merge items this way that should not be
merged. That'd be a huge pita. We'll need to put some good thinking
into this still. I have no good solution right now.
This should be very easy to change. The dialog could
then contain a link to
the Wikidata item for the case when one wants to edit or remove links, until
such a feature is added to the dialog itself.
Showing the dialog and requiring people to click would probably annoy
people for having to click one additional time? Especially if their
intention is clear.
Cheers
