The Anome is a second-wave Wikipedian.

The Anome abides.

New project!

Wikidata/OSM reconciliation: User:The Anome/Wikidata/OSM reconciliation notes

Possessive forms

English is irregular, and pronunciation plays a part.

So: Faltings' theorem, but Frobenius's theorem. Why? Because 'Frobeniuses' sounds OK, but 'Faltingses' sounds silly.

Coordinates

Pages marked as missing coordinates, with coordinates on Wikidata and using the Kartographer extension, should not be marked with {{coord missing}}.

Here's a PetScan query to find them:

Wikidata

Fill in wikidata:Property:P13273, Letterboxd Studio ID. Done, to the point that it is now a well-established property for major/mid-sized studios.

Possibles

Geodata

New thoughts at User:The Anome/Geodata initiative
We now have SQL dumps of geotags! Example: https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20230401/enwiki-20230401-geo_tags.sql.gz
See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wikidata#Linking_from_Wikidata_to_OSM
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q123349660 -- "Geolocatable item", top of the hierarchy of geolocatable objects on Wikidata
See User:The Anome/Wikidata geodata import
To do? Geodata for geological faults in the U.S., see https://www.usgs.gov/programs/earthquake-hazards/faults

To do

Special case: {{infobox mapframe}} that contains a {{WikidataCoord}} template with a non-blank 'display=' parameter results in a page with no geocoordinate link. Hunt these down and fix them.

Validating PetScan query to check order-of-magnitude for correlations

It looks like ORES may now do WikiProject detection, so I won't need to roll my own ML for all of this. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ORES#Support_table

However, I wish it was a bit more fine-grained.

Note: Category:Pages using WikiProject banner shell without banner templates was causing a large number of false negatives for the categorization project. Query https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/72412 now fixed.

Can we add some of the images of Elda Gentile to Commons, per the Commons:Hirtle chart, as PD-US works either published without a copyright notice in the period 1928 through 1977, or published without notice, and without subsequent registration within 5 years, in the period 1978 through 28 February 1989?
or, per The Rialto Report, would it be possible to persuade one of the photographers (Meryl Meisler, Allan Tannenbaum, Bob Gruen, and Roberta Bayley) to relase one of their images under a Commons-compatible license?

Geodata to-do

Next steps

{{coord missing}} now assigns pages with to

depending on the Wikidata entity's P625 property.

Next step is to start using data from this for the bot.

Bot

Do similar format-preserving stuff to tag remover part of bot
fix https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Template%3ACoords+missing&namespace=0 , which is messing with the bot's logic
Remove lines from visited.txt that have "no such page" or "a type article" in logfile.txt; currently there are 4000+ of these; the first is caused by draftification, the second by a now-fixed bug in the bot code finding false positives

Quality control

Look into autodetection of low-resolution geocoding of fine-grained objects (villages, buildings, landmarks...). Ping User:Abductive.
Investigate why the matcher did not find the Okpilak River, surely a slam-dunk match?

Other

Remove {{coord missing}} tags from articles with OS coordinates: (PetScan)

Remove {{coord missing}} tags from articles with {{coord}} tags (PetScan)

Harvest unused lat/long data from {{infobox settlement}}, and replace with {{coord}}: see here for monitoring script.
Not many articles have this, so this is likely to affect a couple of hundred of articles at most. Still, every little helps.

Monitor Category:Pages with malformed coordinate tags
Why do Republic of Dagestan etc. articles escape the {{coord missing}} sorter?
Possible low-hanging fruit for geocoding: the following categories have thousands of non-geocoded articles that are not getting matched by my current software, and may benefit from special-purpose matching heuristics:
- Category:Brazil articles missing geocoordinate data (was 3000+ articles, now 2,478 as of 2015-03-25) -- ??
  - Note: most of these appear to be rivers -- just matched 500+ of these by translating GNS names
- Category:Iran articles missing geocoordinate data (13,000+ articles) -- transliteration problems, presumably
  - It looks like a lot of this might be repetition of the same location in multiple places: the bot's code gets 7000+ multi-matches for Iran
  - See also this paper: "Cross linguistic name matching in English and Arabic: a "one to many mapping" extension of the Levenshtein edit distance algorithm" in Freeman, A. T.; Condon, S. L.; Ackerman, C. M. (2006). "Cross linguistic name matching in English and Arabic". Proceedings of the main conference on Human Language Technology Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association of Computational Linguistics: 471. doi:10.3115/1220835.1220895.
  - And this: A verified Arabic-IPA mapping for Arabic transcription ... http://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/79653/1/brierley14jss.pdf
  - And this: http://geonames.nga.mil/gns/html/romanization.html
- Category:Pakistan articles missing geocoordinate data (~3500 articles) -- transliteration problems, presumably
  - Note: 700+ multimatches from bot code
- Category:Philippines articles missing geocoordinate data (2000+ articles) -- ??
  - Note: mostly universities, schools, other locatable organizations, very little here looks bot-matc
- Category:South Korea articles missing geocoordinate data (1700+ articles) -- not sure what's going on here: fixed my FIPS 10-4 mapping, but that doesn't go very far towards fixing the problem
  - Note: insignificant number (< 100) of multimatches
  - This may be a matter of transliteration: McCune–Reischauer vs. Revised Romanization
- Category:Turkey articles missing geocoordinate data (5000+ articles) -- lots of places with the same names but in different regions (eg. 17 villages all called "Akpınar"), same problem as was found with Polish placenames (also: why is Akçakoca failing to be caught?) The bot code finds 3000+ multi-matches for Turkey.
  - Also, this is due to non-standard naming conventions for the hierarchy of Turkish article categories: see, for example Category:Ankara Province.
  - I've now used spatial disambiguation to resolve some 2000+ of these.

Total is over 27,000 possibles: even doing a fraction of these would make a big dent in the backlog.

-- looks like the Kelvin symbol got normalized to a letter "K", so removed it, ditto the Angstrom sign which also got normalized, and now the ohm sign, which gets normalized to a capital omega

Here is a further reduced subset of those, limited further to letter-like shapes:
