Hi,
I'm very confused too. This blogpost is directly in line with what we've been doing for at least 7-8 years... (see for instance the 5 years old example given in the blogpost and multiple pages on Commons, WLM and/or Wikidata).
Where is the « change »? What does «
2,5 years ago it sounded like no-go » mean here?
That said, it's not perfect nor 100% Wikidata-compliant-usable, we still need to work and improve things but we'll get there eventually. Thanks to everyone who is working on it (especially - but not only - at WMSE ;) ).
Cheers,
~nicolas
