All data going into it should ultimately be vetted by human beings.

Alas, seeing some of my work being undone - not corrected or tweaked, but undone.😕😡 Also, I've had interesting, productive AI chats about how to make Wikidata suck less. I really want Wikidata Ontologizer™😉 data entry app.

So, I'm letting you know that I just applied to your role *Tech Lead, Wikidata Platform*. As a senior dev & lead I have scaled software up by 10s of millions of users. And, I am a real human.

Ryan KennedyI’m not complaining. <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikidata</a> has to explain really rich relationships between vague entities. But it is not simple to understand or even to parse and process in meaningful ways.There’s a ton of detail in the very polymorphic data model and context matters, greatly.

Ryan KennedyThe <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikidata</a> data model is…a lot <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/DataModel" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/DataModel</a>

Ryan KennedyIt is entirely too early in the day to be needing my <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikidata</a> dictionary to parse this documentation: 😆 “A Snak provides some kind of information about a specific Property of a given Entity. Currently, there are three kinds of Snaks: value, somevalue or novalue. A value snak represents a specific value for the property, which novalue and somevalue only express that there is no, or respectively some unknown, value.”<a href="https://doc.wikimedia.org/Wikibase/master/php/docs_topics_json.html#json_snaks" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://doc.wikimedia.org/Wikibase/master/php/docs_topics_json.html#json_snaks</a>Never mind the fact there are three separate type fields at play here: snaktype, datatype, and type. The “somevalue” type is really doing a number on me.
