Comment Pinging project Jean-Fred (talk) 16:48, 6 July 2019 (UTC)- Well, I opened one of the links, and after about 20 seconds of loading the site asked me for signing in. Everybody sees same or does it depend on country you are based in? --Wolverène (talk) 17:15, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- Same for me, and by the screenshoot on the main page (section "rich data"), I assumed login is required to browse data. And its Wikipedia article says that it "recommends movies for its users to watch, based on their film preferences using collaborative filtering of members' movie ratings and movie reviews" .Esteban16 (talk) 21:18, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- Then it's not obvious how it will be helpful for Wikimedia editors/readers which may not have a wish to waste time on creating account in a highly specialized site. --Wolverène (talk) 21:57, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- Agree. That leans me to
Oppose this proposal. Despite the useful data it may contain, to be required to have an account makes it unpleasant. Esteban16 (talk) 22:18, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- Comment I thought it is not unheard of to have IDs linking to website requiring account ; however I could only find a couple − filed them under Wikidata property for an identifier with restricted access (Q65096064). Jean-Fred (talk) 12:07, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

- It would be nice if you explain your position. I'm not really oppose the proposal but it's definitely not the obvious case. --Wolverène (talk) 08:50, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
Not done given how long this has been open without further support, closing as no consensus. --DannyS712 (talk) 07:24, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
