Hello all,
Currently, when adding a new value in the constraints section of a property, there is no suggestion to fill the value or the qualifier. We’ve been improving this by a few changes that are going to be deployed this week.
- When adding a new value in the property constraint statement, a list of suggestions will be displayed and, all the relevant constraint items will be showed first. They will be selected among the list of qualifiers present in the statement “property constraint -> one of constraint” of property constraint (P2302) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P2302. - Of course, you can still type anything you want in the field to find a value. The full text search has been improved (when typing “none constr” you will also see “none of constraint” in the suggester)
In a very near future, we will also make the following happen:
- Same behavior for qualifiers inside the constraint statements. The suggester will pick up the values from “allowed qualifiers constraint” - When clicking on “add value” in the property constraint statement, a suggester menu will directly appear (without having to click on the value field)
The first two changes will appear on wikidata.org on August 30th, the following ones in the next weeks. Feel free to make some tests, and let us know if you find a bug or something that doesn’t behave as expected.
