Hello everybody! A small, yet important change is coming to Structured
Data on Commons: users are now able to add references to a file’s
metadata.[1]
References were always a part of SDC, but until now they weren’t
visible to end users, nor was there an interface to add them. This has
been fixed with the current update.
References for SDC will work exactly like they work on Wikidata: you
can use URLs or items for reference; adding, removing and changing
references will share the same experience of doing it on Wikidata; and
there will be no limit to the number of references that can be added.
I am here in case you have any questions or requests for more information.
Cheers,
Luca / Sannita@WMF
