Sablonvita:Sports-reference

Wikidata alternative

Hi! There is now a property for Sports Reference ID in Wikidata. I have imported the IDs used in this template from all Wikipedias, so it can now be used on Wikipedias by using a module. I have made a module in the Norwegian (Bokmål) Wikipedia that can be copied here and be used with some modification – if you would like me to help set it up, I'd be more than happy to help (just let me know). The module will use the ID from Wikidata preferentially, but if there is no ID on Wikidata it can take an argument from the local wiki, and will categorise pages that are missing the ID in Wikidata. The reason I set it up that way is that I discovered there are many erroneous IDs used on Wikipedias, and it is much simpler to fix in Wikidata, especially since we have this nifty report of errors. One more thing, the Wikidata property does not support links for countries (and country-specific Olympic articles), but that can easily be circumvented in the template itself. Let me know if you'd like me to help set it up here as well! Jon Harald Søby ^vita 2014. augusztus 29., 22:25 (CEST)

@Tomcsy, as template creator, do you have any comments? :-) Jon Harald Søby ^vita 2014. szeptember 3., 17:53 (CEST)

Thanks, I imported and translated the modul, and this template work with the modul. --Tomcsy ^üzenet 2014. szeptember 3., 23:47 (CEST)

Awesome, Tomcsy! I just made use of it in the English Wikipedia as well, and updated the template documentation there if you'd like to take a look (should be easier to understand than Norwegian). :-) Jon Harald Søby ^vita 2014. szeptember 4., 00:10 (CEST)
