Speedy deletion nomination of Category:The Konks albums


A tag has been placed on Category:The Konks albums requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!

 * Fixing an error that sometimes causes Wikidata UI to report 2 error messages when saving a sitelink in an Item instead of just one. (T260869)
 * Development of version one of Federated Properties has concluded! Expect an announcement with timing of the release of this feature soon. Wikibase users who want an early look at the feature are invited to reach out to participate in the pre-release testing round.

 * Map of the birthplace of persons with an ELEM id on Wikidata (Source)


 * Development
 * A long-standing bug has been fixed (T217144) where Items and Lexemes created via OAuth would not be added to the user’s watchlist even if the user had the  setting enabled. (The  setting was probably likewise ineffective, but this was not tested specifically.) Affected tools include QuickStatements, Mix'n'Match, and Wikidata Lexeme Forms; users of these and other tools may see more pages being added to their watchlists now. (This only applies to new edits and page creations; previously created or edited pages will not be automatically added to the watchlist retroactively.)
 * Working on the basic building blocks of the Query Builder towards making it possible to create the first very simple query with it
 * Talking to people about comparing Wikidata's data against other databases and flagging mismatches
 * Fixing an issue with Item creations via the API by blocked users leading to skipped entity IDs (T232620)
 * Fixed an input issue with invisible characters (T261071)
 * Finishing the draft of the REST API spec to get it ready for feedback
 * WikibaseManifest: created a separate key for local entities and decided what we do about non-local entity sources based on tool-builder feedback (T263527) and specifying the API in OpenApi format (T262919)
