The mission of this WikiProject is to improve items related to Star Wars (Q462).

Work in progress on planets/systems and good practices edit

At the time of writing, there are 47 Star Wars planets (instance of Q108059870) in Wikidata. I'm working on three things right now: 1) define a set of standard properties/values to define what is a SW planets, 2) use this "data model" to enrich the knowledge we have in Wikidata about those 47 planets and 3) add more planets based on existing lists such as https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_planets#S and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Star_Wars_planets_and_moons

Planet Data Model edit

Based on famous planets like Hoth (Q739771), Coruscant (Q719329) and Kashyyyk (Q754143), I suggest a draft of representative set of properties to use to describe SW planets.

  • Labels, aliases
  • Description "Star Wars Planet" for english and "Planète Star Wars" for french
  • instance of Star Wars Planet (no need to add fictional Planet as Star Wars Planet is a subclass of Fictional Planet)
  • from narrative universe P1080 : Star Wars Universe Q19786052, Star Wars expanded to other media Q3551295 or both
  • present in work P1441 : links films, books, games, etc.
  • part of P361: give the system + the part of the galaxy (mid rim (Q106379955) for example for Kashyyyk) (will have to create all systems and parts of the galaxy)
  • location P276 : grid coordinate of the object (will have to create an item for each grid position)
  • orbital period P2146
  • rotation period P2147
  • diameter P2386
  • occupant P466
  • Population P1082

Standard Galactic Grid System edit

As defined in https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/The_galaxy/Legends, the galaxy is virtually divided using a grid system. It allows to give to each object of the galaxy some grid coordinate. For example, Kashyyyk is in the grid area H-10. I suggest we create a Wikidata item for each grid area. According to https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/The_galaxy/Legends?file=MainGalaxy.png, the grid is a grid 21 x 23 so 483 grid areas. I do know find any good location properties in Wikidata to associate to each grid area X and Y coordinate so I will go as follows:

  • Every grid area is an item in Wikidata
  • Every grid area is an instance of coordinate (Q3250736)
  • Every grid area is an instance of fictional location (Q3895768)
  • Every grid area is part of the Standard Galactic Grid (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q121788646)
  • The label is the grid coordinate X-Y like "H-10" for example.
  • The description is "Grid area X-Y according to the Standard Galactic Grid used in Star Wars" in english and "Zone de la grille X-Y selon la grille galactique standard utilisée dans Star Wars" in french
  • from narrative universe P1080 : Star Wars Universe Q19786052

Best practices edit

Fictional Universes edit

When adding from narrative universe (P1080) statements, there are two possible fictional universes for Star Wars-related items:

Currently, most items from Star Wars universe (Q19786052) are also from Star Wars Legends (Q3551295), and should therefore have two statements. As Star Wars universe (Q19786052) proceeds to grow with the Sequels and other new publications, we can assume that more and more items exclusive to this universe will appear.

There are also certain statements that are only true in one fictional universe even though their subject item is featured in both, like Princess Leia (Q51797)child (P40)Anakin Solo (Q2069214). In this case, the statement should be qualified with from narrative universe (P1080).
