Wikidata weekly summary #461

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Discussions
    • Closed request for adminship: Minorax, welcome onboard!
  • Development
    • The dev team spent the last week prototyping a few things to learn if some things would be feasible/a good idea. Among other things we tried building a small tool to connect Senses to Items, looked into the different types of ontology issues that can be found on Wikidata and checked what using a document store for data storage would look like.
    • Note: from March 29th until April 12th, Mohammed Sadat (WMDE) is not available to answer messages. If you have any requests for the development team, please ask on Contact the development team. For any emergency, you can contact Lea Lacroix (WMDE). Because of Easter holidays in Germany, the upcoming newsletter will be issued one day later, on April 6th.

DYK for Tonia Shand

On 2 April 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Tonia Shand , which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Tonia Shand became Australia's first woman high commissioner to Sri Lanka in 1988? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tonia Shand. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Tonia Shand), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (ie, 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

A pie for you!

Thanks for tagging the new AFL player articles to wikiprojects, but you don't need to add the Australian rules football template if you include the AFL=yes parameter on the Australia template. That's sufficient. Cheeers, The-Pope (talk) 03:15, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello Oronsay, I saw you added some banners to the article María Teresa Miras Portugal, thank you for that :) I noticed that the previous editions of the article no longer appear in the article history though... I am not sure why that happened... do you know? Thanks again --Rhodonaus (talk) 07:52, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

@Rhodonaus: The banners I added are on the Talk page of the article you created. Your work has not been lost. The article you created still exists at the link above. (BTW, Talk page discussions are added to the bottom of the page.) Oronsay (talk) 08:10, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
