Hello! Welcome to my user page, maybe one day it can be exciting!

• phab:T95878 Wikidata still not editable on mobile?!

Gadgets

• draggableSitelinks.js - drag to add Wikipedias as import sources to any claim
• Preview.js - put the previewed Wiki articles next to their sitelink and add a translate button.
• /scripts/ShowQsAndPs.js - show Q-ids and P-ids directly on the page

	mw.hook( 'wikibase.entityPage.entityLoaded' ).add( function ( entity ) {
		console.log( entity );
	} );

Things that I do not understand

• Why do we need inverse properties at all? Is this not something that can be handled automatically (by the database, not by bot). They're messy, fiddly, error-prone and end up with bizarre cases like having thousands of child astronomical body (P398) on Sun (Q525) and this.

Inconsistent data models

• Why do minerals not have the "is a source of" property, but the products do have the made from material (P186) property? E.g bauxite (Q102078) and aluminium (Q663).

Over-specific properties

Why are the so many properties? Doesn't object has role (P3831) completely negate the need for these? Is this a technical limitation on data access from Wikis and/or a query time limit thing?

• Why author (P50) and not creator (P170) + object has role (P3831) → author (Q482980)?
• Why do taxa have this taxon is source of (P1672) and inverse property (P1696) rather than an general "is a source" of and leave the "is a taxon" aspect to instance of (P31) → taxon (Q16521) relationship?
