Wikibase SPARQL Demo A live demo of the SPARQL MediaWiki extension during the February 2024 Wikibase Stakeholder Group meetup.
We are finishing the endpoint for adding/replacing a sitelink on an Item for a given wiki (phab:T342987) and have finished the ones for getting and removing a sitelink from an Item (phab:T344039, phab:T344685)

We fixed the bug where sitelink data was not including badges even when available (phab:T355293)
IP masking: We are continuing the work on adapting Wikibase so we don't show IP addresses for non-logged-in users.
mul: We finished the user testing and will now work on the remaining blockers for the first release.
Thank you for your review for Silvia Derbez and noticing the date of the source/date of the possible copyvio. As a follow up, I think the source I found may be a reprint because it is in a "Cultura Archivo" (Google translation: "Culture Archive"); the same news outlet also reproduced a similar piece, from a different agency, in 2015. I have not yet checked the Wikipedia Library, but this may help track down the original version(s). If I find a version that predates the creation of the article, I will post another revdel request with updated source information. Thanks again, Beccaynr (talk) 16:22, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
Hey Nthep, hope you're doing well. I believe that the above article was mistakenly tagged for revdel a few days ago (cc @Geardona); it's backwards copying from Wikipedia and most of the overlapping text was already present in the article when it passed FAC eleven years ago. Do you mind if I reverse the revdel? DanCherek (talk) 21:44, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
Not sure if it helps, but I did suspect a backwards copy, but disqualified it at some point for some reason. (Other site claims it’s from 2001)It is non compliant with the cc by sa then…Geardona (talk to me?) 21:47, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Other Noteworthy Stuff
There is a new update relative to the experiment with splitting the Wikidata Query Service graph. A project page for the experiment has also been published.
WMDE is currently conducting a research on Knowledge Equity in Linked Open Data. The goal is to try to better understand how the use of Wikidata, Wikibase Suite, and Wikibase Cloud both support knowledge equity and create barriers to knowledge equity when people are contributing historically and structurally marginalized knowledge and perspectives. If you are interested in participating in this project, please fill out this survey!

The graph split testing for the Wikidata Query Service has started. Please find more details in the "Other Noteworthy Stuff" section above.
IP Masking: We are continuing the work on adapting Wikibase for the upcoming IP Masking feature, so that IP addresses for non-logged-in users are no longer published.
Wikibase REST API:
We finished the route for getting and removing a sitelink from an Item (phab:T344039, phab:T344685) and we continue work on the one for adding/ replacing and modifying a sitelink on an Item (phab:T342987, phab:T342988)
We now handle of case sensitive statement IDs in GET, PUT, PATCH and DELETE requests as HTTP redirect (phab:T354261)
We documented the differences in sitelink data structure between Wikibase REST API and Action API responses (phab:T355659)
We fixed the bug where sitelink data did not include badges (phab:T355293)
Sorry, I should have been clearer in my comment; 08:05 got the copyvio that was in the article, but as I had included the content in the revdel request to explain what the copyvios were, that needs to go as well - which is up to 15:14, 13 February 2024.
In retrospect, that might not have been the best idea, as it meant that there was no fixed revision that needed to be removed up to - every time someone edited before the request was addressed expanded the number of edits that needed to be revdel'ed. BilledMammal (talk) 21:10, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
If you need to show the violations (and even with close paraphrasing as there was here, I'm not totally convinced of the need as Earwig will highlight it), then I'd suggest
take the content out of the article
add the revdel template
put any explanation on the talk page
add a separate revdel on the talk page, if needed.
Hello, how are you doing?....pls how long does it takes a new page before they are reviewed or approved finally on Wikipedia. Jutos222 (talk) 20:19, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
@Jutos222 presumably, you're referring to User:Jutos222/sandbox. Once submitted for review, it can be from days to several weeks before a review is completed the current backlog is 6 weeks. To submit your sandbox for review, you need to add {{subst:submit}} to the top of the page - including the double curly brackets. Nthep (talk) 20:52, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
@Jutos222 If it's in the main article space that it doesn't need any approval. Nor will it necessarily be reviewed. Anything can happen to it in the future but for now, it looks like you have your first article, congratulations. Nthep (talk) 22:01, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
@Nthep The page I just created I notice that few autopatrollers, new page viewers, back loggers, pending change reviewers have check through it and make necessary changes.....and none of them is coming again... So what can still be delaying the article from being indexed on search engines? Jutos222 (talk) 19:19, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Cheers mate, I just figured that the AFCH-script assisted talk page message has been wrongfully placed on your talk page; I reckon you've submitted the draft by fixing it, and this is why I accidentally posted that talk page message. Anyways, Best regards, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 22:40, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
If you are submitting a draft on behalf of another editor there's a couple ways to do it so it is not under your name. The easiest is {{subst:submit|User name}} or if you use the submit button, after submitting change the User parameter from your name to the other editor's name (u=xxxx).
