Create client functionality for getting human readable wikitext from Wikibase statements
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The current access methods for getting statement values for display in wikitext (Lua: mw.wikibase.entity:formatPropertyValues, wikitext: {{#property:…}}) are being heavily used and the output formats are being exploited in various places. For example many consumers assume that external ids are returned as plain strings, not as linked wikitext.

In order to not break with existing consumers, we decided to implement new functions that will output the format which is best for human consumption.

Event Timeline

@Lydia_Pintscher I couldn't find anything regarding that in our arguments doc and also can't remember what name we came up with back then.

I chose to go with statement here, as it's a short name (easy to remember, hard to misremember, which might happen with a name that is property-something). Also it's the right term for what it does, while property is not (you can argue that it stands for renderstatementbyproperty or so, but I think that's not what people have in mind).

@Lucie Do you remember it?
@daniel Do you have a good idea for a name?

I have sadly no notes either. I vaguely remember something including "property" but honestly would prefer "statement" since it's more descriptive about the functionality and I think that weights for me more than making clear with the name how it is connected to {{#property:…}}

@Lydia_Pintscher Are you fine with the proposed Lua function name (mw.wikibase.entity:formatStatementValues)?

Updated the names for the new functionality listed in the sub-tickets according to a discussion we just had.
