Templat:WikidataCheck/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Templat:WikidataCheck.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original templat page.

This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template uses Lua:

Module:WikidataCheck

Template:WikidataCheck compares a template parameter to a Wikidata property and adds pages using the template to one of three categories: not in, same as, or different from Wikidata. It is powered by the Lua module Module:WikidataCheck.

Usage

To add only articles to the categories:

{{WikidataCheck|property=P###|value={{{value|}}}|category=Category prefix}}

To add pages in other namespaces to the categories:

{{WikidataCheck|property=P###|value={{{value|}}}|category=Category prefix|namespaces=0,14}}

To prevent adding pages to a "same as" category:

{{WikidataCheck|property=P###|value={{{value|}}}|category=Category prefix|nocatsame=1}}

To make comparison case insensitive for "different from" category:

{{WikidataCheck|property=P###|value={{{value|}}}|category=Category prefix|ignorecase=1}}

Parameters

Required

|property= is the P### of the property. The "P" must be uppercase.
|value= is the value to use from the template. This would be something like {{{id|}}} or {{{id|{{{1|}}}}}}
|category= is the prefix to use in front of the category names. The categories created are "[prefix] not in Wikidata", "[prefix] same as Wikidata", and "[prefix] different from Wikidata".
- It is recommended you create these categories with {{hiddencat}} before applying this template.

Optional

|namespaces= is a comma separated list of the numerical namespaces to apply the template. The default is 0, which is just article space.
|nocatsame= if set to any value will prevent adding pages to a "same as" category. The "not in" and "different from" categories are still added, where applicable.
|ignorecase= if set to any value will ignore upper/lower case differences between value in template and value in Wikidata when adding pages to a "different from" category.
|qid= if specified will check a a different Wikidata item than the current article.
|onlysourced= if set to "yes" will ignore unsourced Wikidata properties, equivalent to Module:WikidataIB's |onlysourced=yes.

Example

For {{MusicBrainz artist}}, which checks (P434), the following code would be added:

{{WikidataCheck|property=P434|value={{{mbid|{{{id|{{{1|}}}}}}}}}|category=MusicBrainz artist}}

Articles using that template with an ID would be placed in one of the following categories:
