Hi everyone,
Among our development goals this year is to make the lexicographical data
part of Wikidata easier to understand for people not familiar with
lexicography. This included reworking the Lexeme creation page to improve
the editing experience of users. We plan to replace the Special:NewLexeme
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:NewLexeme> page with the new one on
November 2nd!
As you may recall, we made a number of tweaks to the old page and asked you
to test it and give feedback (see the previous announcement
<https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikidata@lists.wikimedia.org/message/TQTZXSMFRV47GDBKEYPN2PQF45JRJL6W/>).
We addressed the issues the community raised, and we would like to thank
everyone who participated in the testing and provided feedback.
While the new Special:NewLexeme is already scheduled to be deployed, we
would still like to hear what you think. If you have any questions or
suggestions please let us know here
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Lexicographical_data#New_Lexeme_creation_page_will_be_live_on_Wikidata_on_November_2nd>
.
Cheers,
