Problem??
Wikidata:List of properties/all!!! There seems to be a problem with this page or is it just me???--Vyom25 (talk) 14:54, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
- It works fine here (or it seems...)--Qllach (talk) 18:02, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
- In this page from Music section onwards all I see is <Script error> (in red color) in title, description and Example column.--Vyom25 (talk) 05:38, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- The script error is not related to the extension AFAIK, but there seem to be some separate error, most likely unrelated. I'll look into it when I get the chance. Hazard-SJ ✈ 05:52, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- Okay then what's with this script error messages??? Should I provide you a screen shot?--Vyom25 (talk) 05:57, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- Afaik it is a problem with many seperate calls to the database. The label of each property is querried from the database. There are too many of them, so the last ones get a timeout error and can not be displayed correctly. --Giftzwerg 88 (talk) 15:37, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- So does it happen with everyone or otherwise and how do we solve it? Can we solve it by splitting the list?--Vyom25 (talk) 17:37, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

- I wonder if we can solve the problem with a bot. The bot compares the properties and the list or properties and updates the list if a property is deleted or changed or it creates a logfile with the differences for a manual update.--Giftzwerg 88 (talk) 15:11, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Has foreign text as English denomination and description, see Talk:Q13407144. --Purodha Blissenbach Discussion 17:10, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hello, this has been fixed. However, for future reference, this page is for translations via the Translate extension, so things like this would be more appropriate at WD:PC. Thanks. Hazard-SJ ✈ 03:21, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
Datatype translation?
I would like to have Catalan translation for datatype "Time" modified. Now it is "Hora" and should be "Data" (English "Date") because it is used in properties where a date (i.e. June 12th, 2013) and not necessarily a time (i.e. 20:42) is required, such as P571 or P569. I guess English word "Time" is more vague but in Catalan, in no case "Hora" can be applied to a date, and anyway Catalan "Data" can contain a specific hour as well. However I haven't been able to find a way to modify it, I guess it is reserved for administrators. Could anybody please change it for me? Thanks in advance! --Quico (talk) 18:53, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
- Modified on TWN. Vogone talk 18:58, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Localizing data format
As far as I know, most European languages don't use the data format "month-day-year" but "day-month-year" instead. However, translated dates show the former and not the latter as it would be desirable. I guess there are maybe software restrictions, otherwise can this be fixed? Since this is a multilingual project, localization, and not just translation, should be a must whenever possible. Thanks in advance! --Quico (talk) 11:31, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

- Thanks for the info. --Quico (talk) 12:02, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
As new parameters have been added to the Template:Roaditem, I have redistributed the subpages for easier editing. The pages Wikidata:Roads task force/Germany and Wikidata:Roads task force/Germany/Bundesstraße must therefore be re-marked. Thanks. --Labant (talk) 14:41, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
- Done --Michgrig (talk) 14:45, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
