anvesha's Issues

please add a LICENSE file

Hi, please add a license file.

Thanks for this interesting wikidata project!

have you looked at Freebase Parallax?

https://wikidatawalkabout.org/ is really nicely done! It reminds me of an old project from Metaweb, which was built on Freebase, called Parallax. It emphasised set-based navigation, which you're kind of doing here too. I think the best reference is this video: https://vimeo.com/1513562

(feel free to close this issue, I was going to try to ask on Twitter but this was easier to find... -- @danbri )

autocompletion feature

see https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2020-September/014281.html e.g. comparable to the autocompletion in https://tools.wmflabs.org/hay/vizquery

Add direct issues link to software

The link to https://github.com/sahajsk21/Anvesha/issues should be more prominent to ask actively for bugs and feature request.

add link to https://wikidatawalkabout.org/ to README

https://wikidatawalkabout.org/ seems to be the place to try this Open source software out

Allow to start with property instead of class

e.g. https://m.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P4745

Application crashes if language selected that has no JSON file

Some recent change - I'm guessing #31 - caused Anvesha/Wikidata Walkabout to crash when the user selects a language for which there is no language JSON file. (Instead of just using the English-language messages, as it's supposed to do.) Here is just one example:

https://wikidatawalkabout.org/?lang=hr

I put in a temporary fix on Wikidata Walkabout by greatly reducing the number of suggested languages, but obviously it would be better to support many more languages.

Selected filter values stay in "memory" even after you hit the back button

There are many ways to replicate this problem, but here is one. From the main page:

click "Film"
click "country of origin"
click "Italy"
hit "back"
hit "back"
click "director"

The display looks fine, but the URL now contains an extra "f.P495=Q38" - and will to continue to hold this string as you keep clicking on things. Which is not good, because then if you reload the page at any point, the "country of origin: Italy" filter will get added back in to the display.

Add support for multiple plural formats in translations

The i18n code in Anvesha currently does not handle locale that have more than 2 plural forms properly. There are a number of other locales which have complex pluralization rules. See MediaWiki's LocalisationCache and plurals.xml for more rules derived from http://cldr.unicode.org/ and other sources.

Original comment: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T268426#6651761

Avoid display of "L..." items

I don't know how big a problem this is, but currently, in the first screen of values in the "Human" class, there are three items that look like "L" with 7 digits after it:

https://wikidatawalkabout.org/?c=Q5&lang=en

I'm guessing that there are more than just these three among Wikidata results, but I don't know for sure. Anyway, any item whose name starts with "L" (or maybe just any that doesn't start with "Q") should be ignored.
