There are two types of articles in Wikidocumentaries.

  • Collaborative created topic's main articles are discussed on this page.
  • Articles created as memoirs by one person are discussed on the testimonials page.

Displaying an article in the topic page

  • As a user I can read a main article about the current topic
    • If the topic exists in Wikidata, the article to be displayed or added should be in Wikipedia.
    • If the topic exists in Wikidocumentaries only, the article is stored in Wikidocumentaries.

Wikipedia articles

  • Editing a Wikipedia article happens in Wikipedia.

Local articles

Local articles for topics that only exist in Wikidocumentaries are created in Wikidocumentaries.

  • All language versions of a Wikidocumentaries article are stored as separate wiki pages in Wikidocumentaries.
  • Articles will have entries in the Wikibase to be able to connect them to different topics and language versions or they can be added using the modified sitelinks feature.
  • Navigating the articles in different languages in the Wikidocumentaries MediaWiki needs a solution to connect them together.
  • Visual editor needs to be installed and modified to support bespoke linking. This is a more general federation need.
  • The user should be able to use a modified Visual Editor to edit (local) articles.

Linking

  • The links of a Wikipedia article are resolved to Wikidata ID's when a link is followed. The router redirects the link to a QID-based address. See linking.
  • The links in a Wikidocumentaries article will have QIDs and Wikidocs-QIDs natively.
  • It will be important to allow linking between Wikidocumentaries and Wikidata. When there is no link in a Wikipedia article the user should be able to select text and query for an page (from Wikidata and/or Wikidocumentaries).
    • The link would be stored locally as an annotation or used only at that one time. How is the annotation stored? As a data table? including the annotated text, the target item, the language and the contributor of the link. Must check compatibility with W3C Web Annotation recommendations.
