Hi Lucie,
Thank you for implementing this. I have some more suggestions.
When I go to this article:
https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciala%C4%B5o:AboutTopic?entityid=Q22393235
I can't go back the Wikidata entry. I also can't jump to this article from the Wikidata entry on wikidata.org. And I'm not made aware of these placeholder articles in 4 extra languages on the Swedish and Cebuano Wikipedias.
This also doesn't work: https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabanga_insulo
But that would have been very surprising if it had. Still, how does one 'land' on these placeholder articles?
The only way I found was by adding the q-number after this url: https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciala%C4%B5o:AboutTopic?entityid=
But that's not very straightforward/intuitive.

I tried it and it looks OK. When I do "create article", I get an empty
page though. I had sort of expected a pre-filled template/placeholder to expand upon in edit mode as well.
Working on that one! It needs some discussion of what to prefill but I'll look into that in the next days and weeks.
The inclusion in the search results is indeed not working at the moment btw- Marius is already working on enabling the feature.
Thank you everyone for your feedback already! I couldn't be happier to be at this point :)

Hi everyone :)
Last year Lucie started working on the ArticlePlaceholder ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ArticlePlaceholder) in order
to
fullfill Wikidata's promise of supporting especially the smaller Wikipedias. Today we have rolled it out on the first 4 Wikipedias: Esperanto, Haitian Creole, Neapolitan and Odia. When someone searches
for a
topic where no local article exists but Wikidata has data we will show
an
ArticlePlaceholder with this information and encourage the reader to
create
an article. I hope this will help these Wikipedias by offering their readers more content and by turning more of them into active editors.
In order for the feature to work well we need labels for items and properties in these languages on Wikidata. A lot exist already but if
you
want to help out you can find items and properties that need labels in these languages at https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-terminator and https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:ListProperties.
What we rolled out today as usual is a first version. Based on the
feedback
from those 4 Wikipedias we will expand and improve it. One of the next things we will do is add the option to translate an article from
another
language if it exists using the Content Translation tool and fix known bugs. Things we know are still broken or need work:
- language fallbacks in the properties are not working so you will see
a
lot of P1234 and so on until a label is added on Wikidata in that
language
- long identifiers break out of the identifier box on the right side
and
don't look good
- right now you only get an ArticlePlaceholder in the search results
when
Wikidata has at least 3 links to other Wikimedia projects and 3
statements.
We might need to tweak this number still based on feedback from the
first
Wikipedias. We limit this in order to not encourage readers to create
an
article that will be deleted right after they created it because it
isn't
notable.
Here are some example pages:
- Odia:
https://or.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%AC%AC%E0%AC%BF%E0%AC%B6%E0%AD%87%E0%AC%B7:...
- Napolitan:
https://nap.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speci%C3%A0le:AboutTopic?entityid=Q2613697
- Esperanto:
https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciala%C4%B5o:AboutTopic?entityid=Q12345
- Haitian Creole:
https://ht.wikipedia.org/wiki/Espesyal:AboutTopic?entityid=Q12345
I'm really excited about making true on one of Wikidata's biggest
promises.
