Extension request: LinkedWiki
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

Miraheze wiki URL:https://www.sekaipedia.org

Is it possible to add LinkedWiki?

The end goal is to use Wikibase to handle translations of data automatically instead of having multiple Cargo tables. However, with existing WikibaseClient extension, there doesn't seem to be a way to query the Wikibase repository like how you would with Cargo and its "SQL". With LinkedWiki, there's a way to run SPARQL queries to populate datatables.

This was previously declined in T6246#131164 though I wonder if that is still valid now.

It is still a concern, but I am more inclined to do a full review now, as I am more willing and confident to approve similar extensions now, even if they need to be restricted sometimes, I have approved other extensions in the more recent past that have been previously declined for similar reason. For that reasons, this task won't be judged or declined based off the past review. I'll decide again if that is still indeed relevant or not, and go from there with a potential full proper review and maybe approval here. Of course it can't be approved if it won't be secure, but we can see if we can.

My bad, I should have done a search for this extension beforehand. It's fine to take your time on it since it's not needed urgently. This extension being approved just means a Wikibase migration is feasible... which will take a lot of time to plan and execute anyway.

General Note: Please note that unfortunately due to the ongoing issues with cloud141 affecting many of our services, tasks are on pause and cannot be actioned until the issue with cloud141 is resolved due to this unavailability. We apologies for the inconvenience caused by this.

Seeing as how Miraheze does not have a SPARQL endpoint for Wikibase, I'd like to close this task.

Per above.
