Hi,
I plan to propose a GSOC project through Wikimedia this year, based around the idea of mobilizing Wikidata. I'd like to share my understanding of the problem and gain some feedback on that, as well as some more input from the community. * * *Problem at hand:* * * Unlike Wikipedia, which displays information as mainly text, WIkidata presents information in the form of a grid of divs. While the MobileFrontend extension prints a mobile friendly version of Wikipedia, there needs to be a separate extension for Wikidata.
This extension needs to be tailored to print these grids instead of text and lay them out in a way that's suitable for a mobile device.
Additionally, the design should allow the addition of/should include 'edit' functionality tailored to suit a mobile device.
- Has there been any previous work done on this front that I could refer to?
I look forward to receiving your feedback.
Thanks, Pragun Bhutani
