Extract multiple aliases simultaneously #39

Open waldyrious opened 2 years ago

I have had to edit Wikidata items manually to add additional aliases because the tool only extracts one of them. Example:

I would expect the question to be

Are "UFC Fight Night 179", "UFC on ESPN+ 37" and "UFC Fight Island 5" English aliases for Q99689072, "UFC Fight Night: Moraes vs. Sandhagen"?

Alternative, if the current implementation is deliberate (to allow approving/rejecting aliases individually) I would at least expect the question page to make that clear, e.g. with a notice like

Additional candidate aliases will be shown as separate questions.

But the ideal solution would perhaps be to show the list of aliases as a checklist that the user could manipulate before clicking "Yes". For example:

Which of the following are English aliases for Q99689072, "UFC Fight Night: Moraes vs. Sandhagen"?

  • [ ] "UFC Fight Night 179"
  • [ ] "UFC on ESPN+ 37"
  • [ ] "UFC Fight Island 5"
