Creating items manually while browsing
This would be the normal way of a user.
- Through search
- By enriching an article
- Through a red link
- Through content components
Through search
- User searches for a topic in the search box
- A list of possible topics is shown in the pulldown menu
- If the right topic is not displayed, the user may choose to create it
By enriching an article
- In the article, the user notices a topic that has not been linked
- She highlights the word
- This creates a search pulldown
- The user may navigate to a page displayed in the pulldown or create a link to the item in the pulldown list by clicking on the link icon. If the article is from Wikipedia, the link is an annotation. If the article is in Wikidocumentaries, the link is added to the article source.
- The user may create a new item. The item is created with a prefilled title.
Through a red link
Workflow to create a new topic
- A modal opens to create the topic
- The user adds basic information (title, description, alias and type)
- Additional information is requested based on user input on the type (P31, instance of). Generally, Wikidocumentaries should not store classes, but they should be created in Wikidata. Let's see how we manage this.
A modal opens to create the topic
The user adds basic information (title, description, alias and type)
Additional information is requested based on user input on the type (P31, instance of)
Wikidata edit interface can suggest properties that are most likely to be added for the kind of topic the user is creating. Use the code.
Creating topics in the Wikibase interface
It is always possible to switch to Wikibase view and add and edit items. Navigation for that is needed.
Mass creating topics
It will be possible to configure external tools to upload to Wikidocumentaries
- OpenRefine. Follow the development in...
- QuickStatements. Has been configured for FactGrid. See documentation in...
The rest of the page may be outdated
Basic info by type of topic
The key info for each type can perhaps be automatically read from Wikidata. The recommended values are either encoded in the type or it's superclass Wikidata, or most used values for this type in Wikidata excluding authority IDs.
Some intelligent features to build:
Location can use a minimum input from the user. It may be one of these
- Coordinates -> Can yield street address, city, country
- Street address -> Can yield coordinates, city, country
- Known location (in Wikidata) -> Can yield coordinates, city, country
- Known geographic location -> Can yield city, country
- City yields country
- Only country if no other info is present
Sources can be automatically retrieved from ISBN / DOI / url / Wikidata ID
- Date retrieved will automatically be added
- Additional data can be manually added here or later
- The data will be saved (locally/in Wikidata?)
Generating items with Shape Expressions from Wikidata
Generating a small batches of required items from Wikidata
- If a user would like to generate the relatives of a person to create a family tree, there could be an action to retrieve all relatives to a certain degree from Wikidata.
- If a user is interested in an area, she could retrieve all items within a distance from the current topic location.
