Deleting properties / items in test.wikidata.org - Wikidata

8 Sep 2016

Hi,

I'd like to write integration tests for https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:FLOSSbot
and use test.wikidata.org for that. I figured out how to create properties[1] with
pywikibot and search for them[2]. But I was not able to figure out how to remove them
afterwards, to not clutter test.wikidata.org. The
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/API page does not show anything obvious.

Any idea ?

Cheers

import pywikibot
site = pywikibot.Site("test", "wikidata")
print(str(site.editEntity({'new': 'property'},
{'datatype':'item',
                                                "labels":
                                                 {"en":

{"language":"en","value":"FLOSS3property"}
                                                 }
                                                })))

import pywikibot
site = pywikibot.Site("test", "wikidata")
for e in site.search_entities('FLOSS', 'en', type='property'):
    print(str(e))
