Hi,

Very useful! I think such indicator (and especially the explanations) can really help novice editors, who often have problems identifying the claims that can be added to an item.

It would be very interesting to see the status of the interlinking to external sources through Recoin. I guess that the claims related to the interlinking (e.g. authority control properties) will already appear in the explanations of Recoin, but it might be useful to show the status of the completeness of the interlinking separately. Maybe as a separate analogous indicator, or in the same indicator but with separate explanations.

Is the source code of Recoin available?

Dear Wikidata Community,

We are happy to announce today a new status indicator icon about the relative completeness of pages, available via our Recoin user script. The user script adds a color-coded progress bar icon to the status bar, which expresses how extensive the information on the page is in comparison with pages about similar entities. Currently, the script works for all humans that have an occupation, by comparing the typical properties of entities having that occupation.

It can be enabled by adding the following line to your common.js:

 importScript( 'User:Ls1g/recoin-core.js' );

Further information on how the values are computed is on the tool's page.

We are looking forward to your opinions and feedback, especially how useful you find such an indicator in general, and regarding the accuracy of the computed values.

Best wishes

Simon Razniewski
