Hi!
Actually, specifically for list of presidents you
don't need bot.
Yeah, you are right, I was thinking about going through query route, but
if your list is contained in one property (like Q30/P6) then using Lua
is just fine. It's not always the case (e.g. "list of all movies where
Brad Pitt played"). But where it works it's definitely a good way to go.
3. It is limited to simple lists (you can't have
list of Republican
presidents - because it requires additional filters and you don't want to
create new property for it)
Exactly. You probably could still do something in Lua, but that's
pushing it already.
4. Internationalization - What if yi Wikipedia wants
to create list of
governors of some small country where there are no yi labels for the
presidents? The list would be partially in yi partially in en - is this
desired behavior? or they can show only presidents who have label in yi -
but this would give partial data - is this the desired behavior? [Probably
the correct solution is to do show the fallback labels in en, but add some
tracking category for pages requires label translation or [translate me]
links)
That sounds like a good idea :)
