Wikisource:Esplanada/Wikidata: Access to data from arbitrary items is here
(Sorry for writing in English.)
I have previously announced the arbitrary access feature here. It is now enabled for you.
More background information: When using data from Wikidata on most Wikipedias and other sister projects, there is currently a limitation in place that hinders some use cases: data can only be accessed from the corresponding item. So, for example, the Wikipedia article about Berlin can only get data from the Wikidata item about Berlin but not from the item about Germany. This has technical reasons. This limitation has now been removed for your project.
We invite you to play around with this new feature if you are one of the people who have been waiting for this for a long time. If you have technical issues/questions with this you can come to Wikidata:Contact the development team.
How to use it:
- Parser function: {{#property:P36|from=Q183}} to get the capital (Property:P36) from the item about Germany (Q183)
- Lua: see mw:Extension:Wikibase Client/Lua
I hope you'll make great things with this and that it will make your work on this project easier.
