MediaWiki extension to customize the Wikibase on OSM Wiki.

• See OSM Wikibase project info page
• See Installation instructions

Implemented

• Style sitelink section to only show "other" section without the header and the edit links at at the top right, adjusted for multiple skins

Work in progress

• Overrides default ItemId to use Y instead of Q prefix

This turned out to be much more difficult than anticipated. The work has been moved to the customPrefix branch. The proposed solution works for creating and editing items, but it breaks when a sitelink needs to be resolved into a Wikibase ID.

Custom Site object

To customize site link normalization, use OsmWikibase\OsmSite instead of Site object. This code assumes you want wiki as the site ID.

.../mediawki$ php maintenance/shell.php
>>>
  $site = new OsmWikibase\OsmSite();
  $site->setGlobalId( 'wiki' );
  $site->setGroup( 'osm' );
  $site->setPath( Site::PATH_LINK, "https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/$1" );

  // If updating, make sure to keep internal ID  
  $store = SiteSQLStore::newInstance();
  $oldSite = $store->getSite( $site->getGlobalId() );
  if ( $oldSite ) $site->setInternalId( $oldSite->getInternalId() );
  $store->saveSites( [ $site ] );
