Hey folks :)
Good news before the end of the year!
* You can go to
test.wikidata.org right now and test out statements on
properties. If everything goes well we will make it available on
Wikidata in 1 week. One thing that is missing is a new datatype to
link to other properties to indicate things like "property x is the
inverse of property y". That will come a bit later. Discussion about
proposed properties to be used on properties is happening at
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/Property_metadata
* Language fallbacks are coming. This is a first version. It'll only
show fallbacks of linked entities on an item. So if you are viewing an
item with a statement linking to another item you will see a label in
another language for this linked item if it doesn't have a label in
your language. Fallbacks are currently implemented to follow the
fallback for system messages. Unfortunately you can't try that out on
test.wikidata.org yet. That'll hopefully happen next week. It should
go live on Wikidata in two weeks.
Cheers
Lydia
