Listeria makes
auto-updating lists on pages, based on a SPARQL query.
The question is whether you have a common characteristic to catch all your items, since
eg Category is not it (no such prop on WD).
I'm confused about the example that
the category is not a property of Wikidata. Is it not a query-able property in SPARQL to
generate this type of output?
Right: there’s no property Category. See these discussions
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/Archive/30#category

After creating the Wikidata item for Visual artists of
the African diaspora, I started adding that category to artist Wikidata items –
- as well as a Commons category if they had media.
So if I run a SPARQL query using category it won't generate results?
Did you add it as “item’s main category”? That’s incorrect, since that’s inverse of
“category’s main item”,
and a category is supposed to have a single main item (e.g. page France vs category
France).
I'm confused because the other suggestion was to
tag items as of interest to Black Lunch Table. The category seems to be functioning in the
same way, not very different.
How did you tag “of interest to”?
One other question: is the task list on Listeria
usable on Wikipedia pages, or does it need to live in Wikidata's area?
You can put it on any wiki page, eg a Wikidata discussion or project page.
