Working on Wikidata statements for judges

Hey, I know I reverted your edits, but would like to extend an offer to work with you to get the statements correct. I've been working on Wikidata Every Politician which has similar succession and office holder boundaries.

For positions like the judges replacing another - on the position's talk page (or page of your own) you can create tables from the format I suggested with Template:PositionHolderHistory on Wikidata. Which Talk:Q5589680https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Talk:Q5589680 is a good example of the extra help it creates to check consistency of start/end and persons replaced or replaced by, but this may not work if there are more than one office holders for the Q (which might be split to seat if able to be distinguished by some differentiation consistently). If you have other questions if your format is correct, I encourage to ping me and/or post to Wikidata:Project chat. Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk) 14:52, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

@Wolfgang8741: I ran the edits from OpenRefine, and I still have the files on PAWS (here, if you can view them). I'm not entirely sure what format you want the data in, but from your example at BOTREQ, it appears it needs data other than the successor and judge. By the way, please just ask me to revert my edits, because now I have about 500 notifications. Thanks for taking the time to clean up my mess! ― Qwerfjkltalk 18:25, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

@Qwerfjkl: Apologies for the excessive notices from the reverts, my first time catching something like this at scale. I do not have permission to view your openrefine, but an example schema config for a position would look more like the following screenshots from openrefine and based on creating this demo you may also need to create some of the positions and clean up some existing Qs for the judge positions. Yes, you probably need to create a few more columns to make a statement that fits both the established practice. I think most positions require a start time which if they were confirmed, but never started the start time would be no value I guess unless the start is at the point of appointment. That is not a nuance I know the answer. It may be that confirmation date needs a new property to represent given the difference between appointed, confirmed, and starting in the role.

A quick look for Judge of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan (or similar) didn't exist - now Q111274584 and Q23933765 wasn't linked to the court - checked by viewing What links here.

You can create the position name in plain text in a new column from the table to try to mach what the position should be called and if they don't resolve, create new positions which would be another schema to configure. I'd look to Q20706330 to know what should be added when creating any new instances of judge positions related to a court listed in the table. Ideally the death date column wouldn't include the age as it makes matching less effective.

The new position schema would be a different statement you can export together or do this in two rounds. The first round to create all missing positions then second to add all the statements for persons holding those positions. For each position adding their respective qualifier of "start time" and "end time" as well as "replaces" and "replaced by" qualifiers for the position, the confirmation date (which I don't know a good property to use as a qualifier so you might ask on wikidata project chat) and "appointed by" property also would be a qualifier for the position.

Two more columns are needed on to the table which would include the person the judge replaces for bidirectional movement through the statement and the position that they will hold which is part of the "Court" that you currently have in the table as mentioned above. I hope this helps to clarify a little? Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk) 19:32, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

@Wolfgang8741:
clean up some existing Qs for the judge positions - What exactly do you mean by this? I used {{Get QID}}, which follows redirects, so might be inaccurate. I could ignore redirects if that would help.
I think most positions require a start time which if they were confirmed, but never started the start time would be no value I guess unless the start is at the point of appointment. - I have additional data where I initially got the data from, mentioned in the BOTREQ.
Ideally the death date column wouldn't include the age as it makes matching less effective. - I can easily use some regex to remove the template that gives the age (or just subst it and remove the age).
Two more columns are needed on to the table which would include the person the judge replaces for bidirectional movement - harder to do automatically, though maybe possible in OpenRefine? ― Qwerfjkltalk 20:42, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

clean up some existing Qs for the judge positions - not all existing positions link to their respective court Qid so to get the most out of the linked data, you may need to verify positions link to courts, have applies to jurisdiction values and other cleanup tasks to have consistent statements across the positions. I'm not aware of a model existing for judge positions, but basing off the example cited above it should be a good template of what statements should be on the judge's position.

I think most positions require a start time which if they were confirmed, but never started the start time would be no value I guess unless the start is at the point of appointment. - One the postion held statements require a start time for context of period of time the person was in the role. Though start time is subjective possibly to different interpretation based on the job. Defining what is the start time for a judge and if it is the same or different from when they are confirmed. I'm talking more about how to represent the data. Without a start time the position statement is flagged as missing that qualifier unless the value is set to unknown or no value.

Ideally the death date column wouldn't include the age as it makes matching less effective. - This is more of a comment of table and data design than something hard to cleanup with regex or openrefine split column.

Two more columns are needed on to the table which would include the person the judge replaces for bidirectional movement The infoboxes (if accuracte) could be one source to extract the value or if you have another source at your disposal with this information. This was more of a comment comparing the table to what might be needed to make a more useful statement for the position. Really its not critical, but the more complete the statement the easier it is to query, walk through the links in either direction, visualize, etc. Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk) 20:57, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

@Wolfgang8741: I think I'm going to re-generate the table, using updated data, so all rows have a successor. Then, I can get the predecessor, which is typically just above it in the infobox.
I think I've created most of the positions needed. Can you see any that are missing? (I wrote a QuickStatements batch to create a few.) ― Qwerfjkltalk 21:12, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

It would help to provide to link(s) to resources you want me to review. I believe you wanted me to look at batch 79292? I don't have anything to compare to for a complete list off hand and courts are not my area of expertise. Format wise for the positions, it would be useful given the defined boundaries to add the position's the jurisdiction with P1001 as well as which court the position is affiliated via P361 of which court ie Q111295760 is part of Q7889771. A query for the list of courts to be part of: https://w.wiki/4yjB When you have the position statements ready, I'll check them out too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolfgang8741 (talk • contribs) 21:43, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

@Wolfgang8741: Am I right in saying that P1001 should always be Q30? If not, can you give an example of what it should be? ― Qwerfjkltalk 20:59, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

No, the US is too broad for jurisdiction as these courts either have jurisdiction of an entire state's geographic area or sub region of a state's geographic area. An example would be the Q111295760 the first sentence states the jurisdiction to the entire state of Delaware United States District Court for the District of Delaware and appeals to the 3rd circuit as this map shows (not sure if this is most current, but it would be a guide on what Qids might be named or need to be created). While in this case I think the jurisdiction and state area are the same it probably requires a separate Qid to represent the jurisdiction that is equivalent in area to the state of Delaware as it is instance of a jurisdiction rather than instance of a state (so the concepts are similar, but different on type). An example of a jurisdiction only of a portion of a state is the Western District of Washington Q111295799 which would be a part of the state of Washington and a second Qid would represent the Eastern District of Washington. The development of the model for representing the jurisdictions may be better suited for the Wikidata Project Chat discussion.

There would be a relation between the jurisdiction and the state as part of the state of Delaware with different Qids, instance of, and description similar to how electoral districts are sub components of the state, but part of the state. This is where creating new positions have a lot of inter dependencies and deciding how to model can enable teasing out the differences between concepts with the same name, but in doing so allows for much richer queries once the Qids exist. New Qid for the district jurisdictions would probably be an instance of Q5982983 or a subclass of this to specify US district jurisdictional areas as a group or something like this. You might query the instances of this Qid to find what jurisdictions exist and for those that do not, create the Qid for each of the district areas as Q5982983 named the same as Q7889771 (United States District Court for the District of Delaware), but has an instance of Q5982983 or a subclass of Q5982983 being "United States District Court Jurisdiction" which would allow for alternative naming of the jurisdictions as "District of Delaware" with description "jurisdiction of the District Court. I was thinking of the jurisdictions to be modeled similarly to how electoral districts ie Q192611 and modeled, but it may be this concept needs more eyes and would benefit from a modeling discussion on the Wikidata project chat or related Wikidata project. This all said, if this is getting too complex, the jurisdiction can be left off for a later person to complete or put on hold to further discuss how to model them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolfgang8741 (talk • contribs) 01:32, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

@Wolfgang8741 ― Qwerfjkltalk 18:17, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Great, just some cleanup of the duplicates created like Q106071810 and you should be good to add these to the people holding the position with the qualifiers you wanted to add for replaced and replaced by, etc.Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk) 18:25, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Wait, are the judges you want to create District Court Judges or Court of Appeals Judges? I think the subclass is incorrect. The name of the position d:Q106071810 aka Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York would imply this is a district court judge ie subclass of d:Q58412318 not d:Q58412251.

Have you looked at Help:QuickStatements#Removing_statements? I haven't batch removed statements before. I'd definitely run test removals on the sandbox first.Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk) 20:16, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 6 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 7 September. It will be on all wikis from 8 September (calendar).
• Some wikis will be in read-only for a few minutes because of a switch of their main database. It will be performed on 6 September at 07:00 UTC (targeted wikis) and on 8 September at 7:00 UTC (targeted wikis).
• On Special pages that only have one tab, the tab-bar's row will be hidden in the Vector-2022 skin to save space. The row will still show if Gadgets use it. Gadgets that currently append directly to the CSS id of #p-namespaces should be updated to use the mw.util.addPortletLink function instead. Gadgets that style this id should consider also targeting #p-associated-pages, the new id for this row. Examples are available. [6][7]

Missing election templates for counties

Hello,

I hope all is well, I was wondering if you could make election templates for the counties of, Cherokee County, Wilkes County, Randolph County, Moore County, Dare County, Spartanburg County, and Horry County? Thank you for your time and have a good day!

Thanks! DiscoA340 (talk) 00:05, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

@DiscoA340, what do you mean by election templates? {{PresHead}}, {{PresRow}} etc.? — Qwerfjkltalk 06:17, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

The template is {{PresHead}} and each row uses {{PresRow}}, sorry for not mentioning that. DiscoA340 (talk) 19:44, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

@DiscoA340, are you referring to Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Qwerfjkl (bot) 8? — Qwerfjkltalk 19:52, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

Yes, I think the bot might have missed these counties. DiscoA340 (talk) 19:54, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

@DiscoA340, I listed all the pages the bot couldn't process at User:Qwerfjkl/UScounties. If it's there the table has irregular format so the bot couldn't parse and convert it. I can run the bot on it to see if it will convert it partially, but rewriting the RegEx it uses to parse the tables takes while, so I considered it not worth it for the last 180 or so pages. — Qwerfjkltalk 20:00, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

I see, Thanks for your time anyways, have a good week! DiscoA340 (talk) 20:03, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
