Data model

Action items:

Adam will edit and expand on the blog post discussing what has happened with the discussion surrounding the proposed data model changes.

Review bid

Action items:

  • Touch base with Adam about status of blog post

It is decided that Andrew will write an FYI message to Tom and Andy.

GDPR follow up

We received a reply from Mikel with the materials produced by the board:

There are three different sub-projects:

  1. Rails Port only changes
  2. Rails Port and CGImap in sync changes
  3. planet tools, including telling the mappers a paradigm of what is happening to their data

Roland will scan for those items that affect Rails Port only. Goal: make a project description from that.

It is decided that we will turn one of these into a project in January.

Discuss website redesign issue

Relevant links:

It was felt that the scope of this is too large to be addressed at this time.

Wikibase extension

Other options:

  • rip out
  • get Wikidata working
  • employ TomH (or task Grant)
  • fork Wikibase
  • contact Wikimedia for specific support
  • dump the data, Noop?

Roland will write a note to Tom about this.
