Hi all,
The Wikidata classes and properties browser [1] was just updated:
* Much faster loading; thanks to Yaron improving Miga to make this possible.
* The browser *with* classes is now the default since it is fast enough
to be suitable for most. You might still want to use the property-only
version [2] if you are on a mobile device or very old machine. It won't
safe any bandwidth, just memory/CPU.
* Images! Side effect is that the application may not be "safe for work"
or may be offensive to users who object to depictions of Q58 etc.
* Fresh data (fresh today).
Feedback is welcome, as usual. Various known bugs remain (it's still a
prototype after all).
Thanks to Yaron for the improvements in Miga that enable the faster
loading now.
Cheers,
Markus
P.S. In case you wonder: I already removed the one instance of Q58 that
the browser reports: an act of vandalism dating back several months. We
really need to create more ways to look at the data so people will
notice such things earlier. Q58 will still remain a class, since it has
two legit subclasses in Wikidata.
