Usage

[edit]

This template defines a bot-generated list based on Wikidata (original blog post). It must be "closed" with {{Wikidata list end}}; the text between these two templates will be periodically (once every 24h) replaced by the bot-generated list. At this moment, only one list per page is possible. Example:

{{Wikidata list
|sparql=SELECT ?item WHERE {
   ?item wdt:P31 wd:Q39715 .
   ?item (wdt:P131)* wd:Q55 
  }
|columns=label:Article,description,p131:Place,P580,P582,p625,P18
|section=131
|min_section=3
|sort=label
|links=text
|thumb=128
|autolist=fallback
|wdedit=yes
}}
... (This will be overwritten by ListeriaBot) ...
{{Wikidata list end}}

Parameters:

sparql
A SPARQL SELECT query. Needs to return ?item as the item number. You can use a conversion tool to convert WDQ to SPARQL, but always check your query to make sure it works. Mandatory.
See SPARQL query service examples suitable for Listeria
wdq
A WikiDataQuery query string. The resulting items will be used to build the list. Try your query out here. Deprecated, use SPARQL. The WDQ query service will be shut down some point in the future.
columns
Defines the columns of the list table. Allowed values are :
  • number, a serial row number (per section), increasing from 1, according to the initial sorting
  • label, the wiki-language-based label of the item, linked to the local article (where exists), or the Wikidata item
  • label/de, the wiki-language-based label of the item, using the given language (here, "de"), as plain text
  • alias/xx, the wiki-language-based list of aliases for the item, using the given language code (here, "xx"), as plain text. Use e.g. alias:en in the row_template.
  • description, the manual, or auto-generated description
  • item, the Q item number
  • Pxxx a Wikidata property
  • Pxxx/Pzzz, qualifier properties; for Pxxx linking to an item Qyyy and having a Pzzz qualifier, the Qxxx linked label and the value of Pzzz
  • Pxxx/Qyyy/Pzzz, qualifier properties; for Pxxx linking to an item Qyyy and having a Pzzz qualifier, the value of Pzzz. This is a version of the above, specific for a single item; e.g., "p553/q866/p554" to get YouTube account names.
  • ?fieldname, a SPARQL result field name. For SPARQL-based lists only.
Values marked as "deprecated" are not shown. Every column can optionally have a ":Titel", otherwise the Wikidata property name is used. Mandatory
sort
The initial sort key for the table. Valid values are:
  • label, the label of the item
  • family_name, tries to find, and sort by, the family (last) name from the label, assuming items are people. This is a heuristic and may not work properly in all cases. If possible, try to sort by P734 (family name).
  • Pxxx, a Wikidata property
Optional
sort_order
DESC will reverse the sort order, any other value leaves it ascending.
section
The list can be sectioned by a Wikidata property. Optional
min_section
The minimum number of entries to generate a section when used together with section. All other entries will be put under section "misc". Default:2. Optional
autolist
If description is a column but no description exists on Wikidata, "autolist=fallback" uses AutoDesc to generate one. Optional
language
Label/description language, if different from site language. Optional
thumb
The thumbnail width for images (e.g. column P18). Default:128. Optional
links
How to render links not in the local Wikipedia. Valid values are:
  • all to link to Wikidata. Default.
  • local to remove entries for which there exists no local article (the opposite of red_only).
  • red to generate red links based on label and item.
  • red_only to remove entries for which there exists a local article (the opposite of local).
  • text to generate blue links for existing pages, and plain text otherwise.
  • reasonator to generate blue links for existing pages, and links to Reasonator otherwise.
Optional
row_template
Generates a template call rather than a table row; the template must then generate the table row in turn or the table header/footer need to be surpressed using skip_table parameter. Parameters passed to the template are the lower-case keys from the columns parameter, e.g. label or p18. Optional
skip_table
Suppresses the table markup completely when using row_template. Any value will work.
wdedit
Generates information that allows Wikidata editing from Wikipedia using this JavaScript. Value needs to be yes. Does not work when row_template is used. Caution: This will result in larger wikitext than normal, and updates may fail because of that. Optional
references
Add references. Allowed value is all. Requires {{Reflist}} or similar somewhere in the page. Optional
freq
Numerical value X; wait at least X days before an automatic update. Does not affect updates via web interface. Optional
summary
Comma-separated list of keys to add as a summary underneath all other content. Optional
  • itemnumber The total number of items (rows) in this list.
