Hey folks :)
We have enabled the new datatype for identifiers now. New properties
will start showing up at
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:ListProperties/external-id. As
announced we will also start converting existing properties with
datatype string that should be external identifiers. We will start
with the first eleven from
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Addshore/Identifiers/0. We will do
more over the coming days. There are still a lot of properties to go
through so please help with that so we can get this over with quickly
to cause minimal disruption to 3rd parties relying on our data. You
will also see the identifiers that are already converted moving to a
new section at the bottom of the item pages. This might need a purge
still though to clear the cache.
Cheers
Lydia
