Hello all,
Over the past months, we researched how people use queries and lists. We
also wanted to find out what problems people meet when getting started with
using queries and lists for maintenance. You can find the results of the
research in this document
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Queries_and_List_Generation_for_Maintenance_%E2%80%93_Research_Slides.pdf>.
Our next step is to make some proposals on new features, based on the
results of the research. We worked on two concepts
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Improve_the_workflows_for_queries_and_lists>:
a simple query builder
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Improve_the_workflows_for_queries_and_lists/Simple_query_Builder>
and an improved example queries dialog
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Improve_the_workflows_for_queries_and_lists/Improved_example_dialog>.
Your feedback is very welcome on the related talk pages until April 21st.
Thanks,
