Wikidata 2
As all the FedCup-id's have been changed overnight about two weeks ago, all ID's that start with a 1, a 2 or a 3 do not work, only the ones with an 8 (as far as I've seen). I believe it will be the quickest to change the parameter  id=  with a without all the categorisation and testing that is done right now. If not, the en-wiki user community needs to go along all tennis players to update the ID (or leave the non-working old ID there). I've seen the Russian, Spanish, French and German wiki's already did such a change. With some other users we're working hard to get all the new ID's in WikiData, there are right now 800 left to be done. Edoderoo (talk) 16:13, 29 August 2016 (UTC)


 * Is there any intention to change the constraints on Wikidata accordingly? Also, where is this being discussed? Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:50, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Currently some people are updating the FedCup-ID's on WikiData, but I can myself only do max 50 players a day, and some days only 10. We're making good progress, but it definitely would go faster if more people would help looking up the ID's that start with a 1/2 and find the name on the FedCup-site, and then update with the new ID. Right now there are 157 left to be done. 1036 have already been updated, so it's just a matter of time. Edoderoo (talk) 06:45, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
 * 100 more to be done. Edoderoo (talk) 17:41, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

I believe the FED-Cup ID's are all done. For the Davis Cup I will leave the conversion to other people, but let me know if someone needs a Sparql-query to find them. Edoderoo (talk) 14:14, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
