Hi everyone.
Not sure it is the correct place to discuss that, but I am working on the
installation of Wikibase alongside SemanticMediaWiki in the same Mediawiki
instance.
(not sure the 'Semantic' is useful for the rest of that mail, but anyway...)
To allow human-readable links from (Semantic)MediaWiki pages to Wikibase
pages, I plan to use the DisplayTitle extension.
I would need Wikibase to have an additional feature when saving the
(english?) label of a page: also save it as the 'displaytitle' of that page
in the 'page_props' table.
The question is: how can I add this hook in Wikibase saving process?
Any help is welcome.
Dear Wikibase colleagues.
I have circulated these notes a little during WikidataCon already:
<https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/Wikibase-Extensions-Federation>
It is a list of extensions or new features that Rhizome needs to go
into full production. We're interested in helping produce these
extensions and will have some funding available in 2020. Please have a
look into the Etherpad and leave a note if these features would meet
your needs as well, and if you have plans to implement something
yourself.
My goal is to have extensions useful for most cases of running
independent Wikibase instances in the new "ecosystem" approach WMDE has
announced, and discuss how they can be made a reality.
Yours,
Dragan

Hi everyone :)
Over the past years Wikidata and Wikibase have been growing a lot.
That means a lot more to do for a product manager - more than I can
handle by now. So we've decided to open a new position. We'll have a
second product manager who will work closely with me and who will
focus on the Wikibase Ecosystem while I concentrate on Wikidata
itself. They will work with you all, partners and the development team
on making sure that we built the right things and that the Wikibase
Ecosystem is thriving.
You can find the details in the job ad here:
https://wikimedia-deutschland.softgarden.io/job/5246357?jobDbPVId=14376022&…
If you're excited about working on making the Wikibase Ecosystem
flourish I'd love to see you apply. You know someone else who would be
a good fit for the position? Please send them the job ad.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to me.
Cheers
Lydia
