==What is Abstract Wikipedia?== <!--T:1-->
<!--T:2-->
Abstract Wikipedia is a new sister project of Wikipedia.
<!--T:3-->
Wikipedia's vision is a world in which everyone has access to the sum of all knowledge. Abstract Wikipedia will help the communities of volunteers contributing to Wikipedia and its related projects to more effectively close knowledge gaps.
<!--T:4-->
Wikipedia has articles about more than 20 million topics in more than 300 languages. But none of these languages alone allow access to the knowledge about these 20 million topics: English has more than seven million articles, Croatian 230,000, and Swahili 100,000. Unless you speak those languages, that knowledge is not easily available to you. And as much machine translation has improved thanks to recent improvements in AI, it is still not at the point where it can produce translations you can trust for many language pairs.
<!--T:5-->
Abstract Wikipedia does that without relying on AI. Each step of the way remains under human control, and is accessible and editable by the volunteers. There are no hallucinations, no inexplicable and unfixable mistakes: If anything is wrong, fixing it is just one step away, and there is full transparency about how the text has been created. It is not just a probabilistic model choosing the capital of Kenya per chance every time. It is human-curated and owned knowledge.
==How does Abstract Wikipedia work?== <!--T:6-->
<!--T:7-->
Articles in Abstract Wikipedia are stored in a notation independent of human languages. The interface of Abstract Wikipedia allows volunteer contributors to create and maintain that language-independent notation. In a second step, this notation is being turned into text in human language. The steps required to make this happen are also created and maintained by a community of volunteers, on Wikifunctions. These steps can use the data on [[<tvar name=0>D:</tvar>|Wikidata]], looking up population numbers, dates of birth, or irregular grammatical forms, which have been added to and are maintained on Wikidata by communities of volunteers.
<!--T:8-->
See [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage</tvar>/Help:How to create an article|Help:How to create an article]] for a step-by-step guide.
<!--T:9-->
Let's follow one example: [[<tvar name=2>Special:MyLanguage</tvar>/Q1033|Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa.]] In Abstract Wikipedia, this might be stored as:</translate>
{{block indent|1=[[f:Z27243|Z27243]]([[d:Q1033|Q1033]], [[d:Q138758272|Q138758272]], [[d:Q6256|Q6256]], [[d:Q15|Q15]], Z27243K5)}}
<translate><!--T:10--> Or, if we use English labels for these identifiers:</translate>
{{block indent|1=superlative(Nigeria, populous, country, Africa, language)}}
<translate><!--T:11--> This is a call to a function on Wikifunctions. Based on the language, another function is being called. For English, we get the following function call:</translate>
{{block indent|1=[[f:Z27243|Z27243]]([[d:Q1033|Q1033]], [[d:Q138758272|Q138758272]], [[d:Q6256|Q6256]], [[d:Q15|Q15]], [[f:Z1002|Z1002]])}}
<translate><!--T:12--> And that results in the English text</translate>
{{block indent|1=''"Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa."''}}
<translate><!--T:13--> If we had chosen German, another function would be called:</translate>
{{block indent|1=[[f:Z27243|Z27243]]([[d:Q1033|Q1033]], [[d:Q138758272|Q138758272]], [[d:Q6256|Q6256]], [[d:Q15|Q15]], [[f:Z1430|Z1430]])}}
<translate><!--T:14--> And that in turn would result in the following German text:</translate>
{{block indent|1=''"Nigeria ist das bevölkerungsreichste Land Afrikas."''}}
<translate><!--T:15-->
An example with more languages can be found here.<!-- where?? -->
<!--T:16-->
Abstract Wikipedia brings together numerous communities from the Wikimedia Movement and allows them to work together. Basic lexical data and structured data about many topics from Wikidata, functions that capture the necessary computations from Wikifunctions, and images and maps from Wikimedia Commons are all tied together in Abstract Wikipedia and made available for the more than 300 language editions of Wikipedia.
<!--T:17-->
The goal of Abstract Wikipedia is to make more knowledge available to more people in more languages, and to allow volunteer editors to be more effective and work across languages, no matter what language they speak. Improvements to the knowledge will automatically propagate to the Wikipedias, errors will be spotted faster and fixed more effectively, and collaborations across languages become possible. We are tearing down the language barriers which are keeping knowledge apart.</translate>

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor. If I recall correctly, the default on other wikis is that the edit button next to the section heading on discussion pages opens only that section and in the wikitext editor. It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:[[Abstract Wikipedia:Report a technical problem]] would be more appropriate. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:14, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Temporary adminship ==
I'm requesting temporary adminship here (for 24 hours to a week) to help set up the wiki on the community side. As administrator on Wikifunctions, I designed the current layout of the main page (also used locally), among other things. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:16, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask. Cheers, [[User:VIGNERON|VIGNERON]] ([[User talk:VIGNERON|talk]]) 21:36, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::Ah, right! Please update the main page as I've requested on its talk page, as well as delete the existing pages on the Abstract Wikipedia namespace with QIDs (they are now redundant), and add the correct license to [[MediaWiki:License]]. I have a few more things, but they're relatively minor. Consider the above request retracted. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:29, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

:::::{{ping|VIGNERON}} I wanted you to do the things I asked in the above reply (which you ignored :(. ).

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content. Or will it not be possible to do it in that way on this wiki (or at all)? [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:28, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:Calling functions here is currently possible, but some templates are impossible to replace and functions are inconvenient in any case. It'd be helpful if you said which templates you intended to import, but generally I'd say import them. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:33, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::I think what I wonder most is if we always should do multilingual templates with the traditional <code><nowiki><translate></nowiki></code> tags or use functions wherever we can. [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:42, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::The problem with "functions wherever we can" is that most template-like functions are content based, like abbr or 0. I'm assuming you mean templates that are more about meta stuff, which probably should '''not''' be functions, at least under the current idea. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:46, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::::Yes, I was only thinking about meta stuff. Where can I read about this idea you are referring to? It seems important enough that it should be part of [[Abstract Wikipedia:Scope|this project's scope]] (or similar page/policy). [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:52, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::It's not written down, I suppose. I didn't mean there was a rule against creating the functions, (feel free, if you'd like). The main problem with putting them on Wikifunctions is speed and the fact that you must use HTML fragments (no wikitext), which to me makes it unreasonable. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:56, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair point of view. The reason I asked was that it would be an excellent way of [[d:Q3033752|Q3033752]] (note to self, we need the functionality of [[d:Template:Q]]). If we get used here to not falling back into wikitext, we get more training at creating excellent abstract content. [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 20:03, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated. I'd courtesy ping those who have already created one but it seems we don't have that set up yet! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now). [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 06:56, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
:I am not sure that we want "automatic" translation. But regular translation, I truly agree that we should have. There is a Phabricator created to enable the Translate extension on this wiki ([[Phab:T420656]]). <span style="color:#EAA">♥</span>[[User:Ainali|Ainali]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Ainali|diskussion]]</sup><sub>[[Special:Bidrag/Ainali|bidrag]]</sub></small> 07:42, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
::Yes at least the ability to translate user messages, so that I for example could read the messages in this page in Spanish and reply in Spanish, and the rest of users translate them to their local languages. Otherwise cross-lingual collaborative effort isn't going to work unless everyone has a decent level of English as a second language. Thank you for the link! [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 08:42, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
::
::I would greatly appreciate automatic per-comment translation (the way Discourse implements it), and hope we find a way to implement that for the truly multilingual sites like this. In the wiki spirit, the outputs of the automatic translation should be savable and editable so that a) the computation of auto-translation only happens once into each target language and b) everyone can improve each of those translations. [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
== Using Function IDs ==
It seems like when creating an article you cannot insert a function ID (i.e. Z6839) in a function call's function field and you have to type in it's name and hope it pops up (which it seems as though it doesn't always). [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:13, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Not showing functions that return strings where an HTML fragment is needed ==
It might be good to adjust the search function inside the abstract wikipedia editor to show functions that return strings as grayed-out where an HTML fragment is needed, as it took me a while to realize that [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z24102 label of item reference in specific/general lang] returns a string and not an HTML fragment, meaning that it doesn't show up when searching. [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:30, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Cannot find Lorrain in the language list ==
Hi, I wanted to try generating an article in lorrain ([[d:Q671198]]), but it does not appear in the selection list. Where can I ask for it to be added, so that I can try experimenting with it?
Thanks! [[User:Poslovitch|Poslovitch]] ([[User talk:Poslovitch|talk]]) 19:48, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
:I'm not certain, but I know it's a bit of a process that I think begins on Wikidata.

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages.

:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language. What do you think how is it possible to get more people from small Wikipedia language versions involved in Abstract Wikipedia and Wikifunctions.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version. You should only use the generic ones in abstract articles. {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 21:50, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

== "It" in abstract wikipedia ==
How should the concept of "it" be represented in abstract wikipedia? Otherwise it leads to a lot of sentences like "Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Brussels is a large city. Brussels is...".

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "authoring language" (some sample texts of your idea would be helpful), but I don't think there's much improvement to be had while still writing in an abstract language (that is to say, most improvements would make the language more concrete).

::Ooh. I could be wrong but I think wikidata doesn't have a property for "grammatical gender".

As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful.

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach. My proposed solution: I'm hoping the top level call from Abstract Wikipedia will be optionally allowed to send parameters like the grammatical number "plural" of the subject, which could be considered by the specific language alongside other context about the subject/object item to formulate the grammar (e.g. [[f:Z32496]]), and by the time it gets to the English constructor (e.g. [[f:Z32410]]), the English function will have the "subject is plural" boolean set (to decide "has"/"have" as well as the articles). I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language. From my point of view there are in relation to other programming languages many people who can write spreadsheet functions and they are translated into many different natural languages. In the past I did some experiments regarding the automatical conversion of Spreadsheet functions into the programming language R. I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions. Maybe the goal of making it abstract makes it more complicated and language specific functions are easier to create for many people.

Heya! Been working on the page [[Q778]] [and thus the [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z26570 Z26570] function] - is there a way to check if a word needs a definite article [i.e. the] or not?

== Editing the direct code of pages ==
I find the current GUI editor to be quite clunky and harder for more complex topics.
I'm assuming there is some way that I can edit the code of pages, so I can more quickly write functions without clicking through GUIs. Like I heavily doubt someone wrote [[Q15433043]] by clicking through GUIs.
Also, does anyone know of a function that concats two strings with a space in between? Would I just use [[wikifunctions:Z21394|Z21394]], adding a space between two calls to objects (i.e. "Mars" + " " + "Jupiter")? [[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]] ([[User talk:EatingCarBatteries|talk]]) 20:19, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
:For [[Q15433043]], it looks like they just wrote it in plain English and didn't use functions, so that's why it's so long I think. For joining, [[f:Z22504]] looks like a pretty good option. [[User:Infernostars|Infernostars]] ([[User talk:Infernostars|talk]]) 20:40, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Also is there a way to edit things in a sandbox or something so I can experiment without it being in mainspace?

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community.

::Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Some uninformed thoughts below.
::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?).

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it. This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute.

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

But I suppose [https://cpomagazine.com/cyber-security/taking-stock-of-the-anthropic-source-code-leak-ai-agent-compromise-signals-security-issues-claude-copies-ahead-of-massive-ipo turnabout] is fair play? — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 19:53, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::::: I meant in [[d:Q138963952|the Wikidata item]] ''for'' AWE, but in general I think our articles should incorporate references early on, since even abstract content needs justification. [[d:help:sources#Language-independent general principles|This help page]] may be handy; '[[d:property:P3680|statement supported by]]' could be useful for linking to biographical articles in the manner "According to [source], [claim]" (obviously adjusted to the relevant language structures in each language for saying such things). — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 20:42, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] oh that makes sense.

Do you know how? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:44, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::I don't. Currently the distinction between content and format is unclear to me. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:06, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::I am however really liking section headers like the one here [[Q12539]] and I am going to include them in the next release [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:13, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Yes I think that adding sections to articles might be really the first part of the journey towards actually having somewhat readable articles.

== Numerous errors have been introduced, possibly due to the "AWE" tool ==
As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 17:16, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:This is, of course, what happens when you use a slop-machine to write code. See existing discussion on [[User talk:Immanuelle/Abstract Wikipedia Editor#Creates inaccessible content]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] I thought you wanted everything nested in the paragraph things. That's why I did that, following your request that you linked to. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 17:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::I know. In the future, can you test whatever the slop-machine gives you ''on-wiki'' to ensure you don't mass-vandalize it again? Thank you! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:52, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki. When every page fails to render, it is very difficult to know if I introduced an error, or the program introduced an error. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:18, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”
::::[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 19:00, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] would you suggest removing the paragraph by default behavior in the editor over this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 19:50, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.
::::::We could consider also implementing a “sentence” or “content unit” function that simply calls “paragraph”, so we can later tell where the intended paragraphs are. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 21:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::This is not accessible for users with screen-readers, and thus not a viable work-around. Each paragraph must be in a paragraph tag. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::It’s sub-optimal, I agree, but every unit of meaning would be wrapped in p tags, which is more accessible than a series of bare fragments or failed function calls. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 17:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::If you do need to make inaccessible articles, please at least give them a category on the talk page. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:21, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::We’d need to agree an accessibility standard first, but I’m not planning on creating any articles until there are suitable functions available. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 22:36, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I agree. Accessibility standards need to be established and not just assumed. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 23:28, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I definitely do agree that we need accessibility standards, but this isn't really a nice-to-have that you debate about but rather the floor. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 00:27, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::When someone "vandalizes" it is not necessarily intentional, see [[wikt:vandalise]]. I do understand that Immanuelle has good faith, but at the same time, the "deployment" caused tens of articles to be broken, and furthermore I don't suspect something this bad would have slipped through had a human carefully reviewed the code. When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:25, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::It was a silent error that was only discovered by chance. What kind of testing would you have done to avoid this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 22:37, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]]": On Wikipedia, "[[:en:WP:VAND|Vandalism]]" is a technical term that means "editing (or other behavior) '''''deliberately''' intended to [[:en:Wikipedia:DE|obstruct or defeat]] the [[:en:Wikipedia:Five_pillars|project's purpose]]''".

::Would you be willing to raise this in the project chat? I'm thinking we are in an experimentation state that will keep improving incrementally just like the first edition of Wikipedia did since January 15, 2001. Just like back then I don't think it's a good idea to arbitrarily limit good faith editing. We probably will have to revisit these articles later as more and better functions become available but that in itself is not a valid argument for refraining from edits.

::I agree with your stub-flooding comment, I don't think it's particularly useful to have a bunch of articles that say nothing. The concern right now should be testing.

[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes
:I plan on attending the Monday volunteer meeting and asking about this issue. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 22:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::> But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.

:::The team has already declined (or indicated that they had no plans) to do validation in this form, so I don't think a new ticket would be ideal. Either way, this shouldn't affect anyone besides those using a headless browser (or anyone using good, human-reviewed code and a headless browser), so I don't think it would be a priority anyway. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:19, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor. If I recall correctly, the default on other wikis is that the edit button next to the section heading on discussion pages opens only that section and in the wikitext editor. It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I'm requesting temporary adminship here (for 24 hours to a week) to help set up the wiki on the community side.

:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask.

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content.

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated.

== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now).

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version.

How should the concept of "it" be represented in abstract wikipedia? Otherwise it leads to a lot of sentences like "Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Brussels is a large city. Brussels is...".

== Supported languages for an article ==
Is there a possiblity to see all languages an article can be displayed in. I looked at [[Q2290517]] and it seems like there is not yet a German version for this article. From my point of view knowing what articles are missing in the language of interest is important for working on abstract articles. As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful. So I think it is also necessary for checking if the article can be displayed in the user interface language. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 21:17, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach.

I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community.

:@[[User:Kowal2701|Kowal2701]]: thank you for your concern and suggestion. When this Beta started, we have immediately [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-19|mentioned that there might be the possibility of restarting the project]]. So that might indeed happen.
:But so far, this early start of the not fully polished project allows us to learn so incredibly much. In the last few days we have learned so much more than we would have been able without the launch in months! And it helps us to focus on where to put our limited resources, so that we can make the overall project better quicker than would have been possible otherwise. From that perspective, this has been quite a success.

::Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Some uninformed thoughts below.
::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?). Then a central or watchlist notice for the actual launch, hopefully by which time there'd already be a small group of editors able to assist the influx of newbies.

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it. This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute. Sharing the work and offering people help with creating an function for an specific sentence can be a important way of getting more content in Abstract Wikipedia. Maybe it is unrealistic to find a huge number of people who are interested in writing functions who generate text. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:58, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

== Gendered languages ==
I've created [[Q79097672]], an article for a woman singer. In gendered languages however, it defaults to using masculine words. An example: in Portuguese, it reads "Arlo Parks é um cantor", when it should be "Arlo Parks é uma cantora". Is there any fix to this?

== Why don't we just structure this with wikitemplates? ==
I feel like the project could be done a lot better by using templates kind of like how wikipedia does them. Just the entire thing is templates that can be rendered in many languages. So like [[Q106289265]] would have the content \{\{Z26039|Q7257\}\}\ and could even have some aliasing done across languages so it could be \{\{subject is|Q7257\}\}\. Code would be editable with a regular visual editor or code editor. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:34, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

== Automatically querying wikidata ==
Is it possible in the future for this project to have things that automatically query wikidata? Like an infobox that gives people's spouses, or a function that queries a specific property on wikidata [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:10, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
:Yes, that is the long term goal. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:37, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
::What’s “long term” about it? We already have functions that query specific properties on Wikidata, [[f:Z32431]] being a simple example.

== Searching for other namespaces in the search bar ==
Something that has always irked me with Wikidata, Wikifunctions, and now Abstract Wiki is that there are no search suggestions when you are searching in other namespaces in the search bar. For example, if I were to type "Abstract Wikipedia:", nothing shows up. Whereas on enwiki, you can do this just fine. Is this because these sites are using a more "modified" version of MediaWiki? [[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]] ([[User talk:EatingCarBatteries|talk]]) 04:38, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
:I also find this very annoying. I'm not sure if there's anything that can be done about it or if it is a result of technical limitations ({{ping|Jdforrester (WMF)}}?). [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 04:41, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
::@[[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]], @[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]]: The search interface indeed is designed to only search the Wikidata concepts that would take up the main namespace.

Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:

However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!

:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages.

::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though.

::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”

::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

:::The team has already declined (or indicated that they had no plans) to do validation in this form, so I don't think a new ticket would be ideal.

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor. If I recall correctly, the default on other wikis is that the edit button next to the section heading on discussion pages opens only that section and in the wikitext editor. It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

== Temporary adminship ==
I'm requesting temporary adminship here (for 24 hours to a week) to help set up the wiki on the community side. As administrator on Wikifunctions, I designed the current layout of the main page (also used locally), among other things. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:16, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask.

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content. Or will it not be possible to do it in that way on this wiki (or at all)? [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:28, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:Calling functions here is currently possible, but some templates are impossible to replace and functions are inconvenient in any case. It'd be helpful if you said which templates you intended to import, but generally I'd say import them. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:33, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::I think what I wonder most is if we always should do multilingual templates with the traditional <code><nowiki><translate></nowiki></code> tags or use functions wherever we can. [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:42, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::The problem with "functions wherever we can" is that most template-like functions are content based, like abbr or 0. I'm assuming you mean templates that are more about meta stuff, which probably should '''not''' be functions, at least under the current idea. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:46, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::::Yes, I was only thinking about meta stuff. Where can I read about this idea you are referring to?

[[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:52, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::It's not written down, I suppose. I didn't mean there was a rule against creating the functions, (feel free, if you'd like). The main problem with putting them on Wikifunctions is speed and the fact that you must use HTML fragments (no wikitext), which to me makes it unreasonable.

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated. I'd courtesy ping those who have already created one but it seems we don't have that set up yet! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now). [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 06:56, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
:I am not sure that we want "automatic" translation. But regular translation, I truly agree that we should have.

::Yes at least the ability to translate user messages, so that I for example could read the messages in this page in Spanish and reply in Spanish, and the rest of users translate them to their local languages.

::I would greatly appreciate automatic per-comment translation (the way Discourse implements it), and hope we find a way to implement that for the truly multilingual sites like this. In the wiki spirit, the outputs of the automatic translation should be savable and editable so that a) the computation of auto-translation only happens once into each target language and b) everyone can improve each of those translations. [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
== Using Function IDs ==
It seems like when creating an article you cannot insert a function ID (i.e. Z6839) in a function call's function field and you have to type in it's name and hope it pops up (which it seems as though it doesn't always). [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:13, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Not showing functions that return strings where an HTML fragment is needed ==
It might be good to adjust the search function inside the abstract wikipedia editor to show functions that return strings as grayed-out where an HTML fragment is needed, as it took me a while to realize that [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z24102 label of item reference in specific/general lang] returns a string and not an HTML fragment, meaning that it doesn't show up when searching. [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:30, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Cannot find Lorrain in the language list ==
Hi, I wanted to try generating an article in lorrain ([[d:Q671198]]), but it does not appear in the selection list. Where can I ask for it to be added, so that I can try experimenting with it?

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method. Spreading awareness as to contributing this way on the main page could also be helpful [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 00:35, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
::Yeah, some kind of tutorial would be phenomenal. There could be some walk-through tutorials for creating some basic linguistic functions. That seems to be the bottleneck to progress here - practically all sentences follow the format "X is Y".
::I've been looking forward to Abstract for awhile now (finding out it released yesterday, a bit too late), but it's completely unapproachable - it feels like I need a master's degree in both Computer Science and Linguistics in order to contribute to the growth of this project.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language. What do you think how is it possible to get more people from small Wikipedia language versions involved in Abstract Wikipedia and Wikifunctions.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version. You should only use the generic ones in abstract articles. {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 21:50, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

:::Agreed, although I'm not sure how easy it would be to filter them out; there's not really anything distinguishing them from the general functions, they're both functions that take some input and return monolingual text as output.

== "It" in abstract wikipedia ==
How should the concept of "it" be represented in abstract wikipedia? Otherwise it leads to a lot of sentences like "Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Brussels is a large city. Brussels is...". Also, is there any plans for some form of easier to understand "authoring language" or something? The current approach with writing wikifunctions is hard to understand and write. [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 19:35, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
:Every concept is represented in Abstract Wikipedia through its Wikidata item, which would be [[d:Q6091500]] in this case. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "authoring language" (some sample texts of your idea would be helpful), but I don't think there's much improvement to be had while still writing in an abstract language (that is to say, most improvements would make the language more concrete).

:This is a tough problem, because the pronoun you would use is semantically different in different languages. I think we have to make a "refer to previously-mentioned" function that takes a Wikidata item, reads properties like person or object, (linguistic) gender, etc, and spits out a pronoun. Hopefully it can be done that simply. [[User:Snowmanonahoe|Snowmanonahoe]] ([[User talk:Snowmanonahoe|talk]]) 18:41, 25 March 2026 (UTC)

::Ooh. I could be wrong but I think wikidata doesn't have a property for "grammatical gender". For English I'll probably match on P21 and if it's an instance of Q5, and if it doesn't have P21 and is an instance of Q5 do they/them, if not an instance of Q5 and doesn't have P21 it/its, and otherwise match on P21.

== Supported languages for an article ==
Is there a possiblity to see all languages an article can be displayed in. I looked at [[Q2290517]] and it seems like there is not yet a German version for this article. From my point of view knowing what articles are missing in the language of interest is important for working on abstract articles. As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful. So I think it is also necessary for checking if the article can be displayed in the user interface language. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 21:17, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach. My proposed solution: I'm hoping the top level call from Abstract Wikipedia will be optionally allowed to send parameters like the grammatical number "plural" of the subject, which could be considered by the specific language alongside other context about the subject/object item to formulate the grammar (e.g. [[f:Z32496]]), and by the time it gets to the English constructor (e.g. [[f:Z32410]]), the English function will have the "subject is plural" boolean set (to decide "has"/"have" as well as the articles). I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages. PS off topic, but I also think we will often want these functions to return HTML not monolingual text, so that we can embed hyperlinks. --[[User:99of9|99of9]] ([[User talk:99of9|talk]]) 02:37, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language. From my point of view there are in relation to other programming languages many people who can write spreadsheet functions and they are translated into many different natural languages. In the past I did some experiments regarding the automatical conversion of Spreadsheet functions into the programming language R. I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions. Maybe the goal of making it abstract makes it more complicated and language specific functions are easier to create for many people.

I find the current GUI editor to be quite clunky and harder for more complex topics.
I'm assuming there is some way that I can edit the code of pages, so I can more quickly write functions without clicking through GUIs. Like I heavily doubt someone wrote [[Q15433043]] by clicking through GUIs.
Also, does anyone know of a function that concats two strings with a space in between? Would I just use [[wikifunctions:Z21394|Z21394]], adding a space between two calls to objects (i.e. "Mars" + " " + "Jupiter")? [[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]] ([[User talk:EatingCarBatteries|talk]]) 20:19, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
:For [[Q15433043]], it looks like they just wrote it in plain English and didn't use functions, so that's why it's so long I think. For joining, [[f:Z22504]] looks like a pretty good option. [[User:Infernostars|Infernostars]] ([[User talk:Infernostars|talk]]) 20:40, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community.

::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?).

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it.

It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute.

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages.

== Numerous errors have been introduced, possibly due to the "AWE" tool ==
As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 17:16, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:This is, of course, what happens when you use a slop-machine to write code. See existing discussion on [[User talk:Immanuelle/Abstract Wikipedia Editor#Creates inaccessible content]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] I thought you wanted everything nested in the paragraph things. That's why I did that, following your request that you linked to. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 17:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::I know. In the future, can you test whatever the slop-machine gives you ''on-wiki'' to ensure you don't mass-vandalize it again? Thank you! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:52, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki. When every page fails to render, it is very difficult to know if I introduced an error, or the program introduced an error. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:18, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”
::::[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 19:00, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] would you suggest removing the paragraph by default behavior in the editor over this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 19:50, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.
::::::We could consider also implementing a “sentence” or “content unit” function that simply calls “paragraph”, so we can later tell where the intended paragraphs are. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 21:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::This is not accessible for users with screen-readers, and thus not a viable work-around. Each paragraph must be in a paragraph tag. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::It’s sub-optimal, I agree, but every unit of meaning would be wrapped in p tags, which is more accessible than a series of bare fragments or failed function calls. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 17:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::When someone "vandalizes" it is not necessarily intentional, see [[wikt:vandalise]]. I do understand that Immanuelle has good faith, but at the same time, the "deployment" caused tens of articles to be broken, and furthermore I don't suspect something this bad would have slipped through had a human carefully reviewed the code. When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:25, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::I agree with your stub-flooding comment, I don't think it's particularly useful to have a bunch of articles that say nothing. The concern right now should be testing.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

:::The team has already declined (or indicated that they had no plans) to do validation in this form, so I don't think a new ticket would be ideal.

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor.

It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I'm requesting temporary adminship here (for 24 hours to a week) to help set up the wiki on the community side.

[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:16, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request.

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content.

== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now).

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version.

How should the concept of "it" be represented in abstract wikipedia? Otherwise it leads to a lot of sentences like "Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Brussels is a large city. Brussels is...". Also, is there any plans for some form of easier to understand "authoring language" or something? The current approach with writing wikifunctions is hard to understand and write. [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 19:35, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
:Every concept is represented in Abstract Wikipedia through its Wikidata item, which would be [[d:Q6091500]] in this case. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "authoring language" (some sample texts of your idea would be helpful), but I don't think there's much improvement to be had while still writing in an abstract language (that is to say, most improvements would make the language more concrete).

:This is a tough problem, because the pronoun you would use is semantically different in different languages.

::Ooh. I could be wrong but I think wikidata doesn't have a property for "grammatical gender".

== Supported languages for an article ==
Is there a possiblity to see all languages an article can be displayed in. I looked at [[Q2290517]] and it seems like there is not yet a German version for this article. From my point of view knowing what articles are missing in the language of interest is important for working on abstract articles. As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful. So I think it is also necessary for checking if the article can be displayed in the user interface language. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 21:17, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach. My proposed solution: I'm hoping the top level call from Abstract Wikipedia will be optionally allowed to send parameters like the grammatical number "plural" of the subject, which could be considered by the specific language alongside other context about the subject/object item to formulate the grammar (e.g. [[f:Z32496]]), and by the time it gets to the English constructor (e.g. [[f:Z32410]]), the English function will have the "subject is plural" boolean set (to decide "has"/"have" as well as the articles). I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language.

I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions.

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community. This needs to be put on ice until it can be launched properly with multilingual support and invitations to all wikis, particularly smaller ones.

:But so far, this early start of the not fully polished project allows us to learn so incredibly much. In the last few days we have learned so much more than we would have been able without the launch in months! And it helps us to focus on where to put our limited resources, so that we can make the overall project better quicker than would have been possible otherwise.

::Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Some uninformed thoughts below.
::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?). Then a central or watchlist notice for the actual launch, hopefully by which time there'd already be a small group of editors able to assist the influx of newbies.

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it. This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute. Sharing the work and offering people help with creating an function for an specific sentence can be a important way of getting more content in Abstract Wikipedia.

I've created [[Q79097672]], an article for a woman singer. In gendered languages however, it defaults to using masculine words.

== Why don't we just structure this with wikitemplates? ==
I feel like the project could be done a lot better by using templates kind of like how wikipedia does them. Just the entire thing is templates that can be rendered in many languages. So like [[Q106289265]] would have the content \{\{Z26039|Q7257\}\}\ and could even have some aliasing done across languages so it could be \{\{subject is|Q7257\}\}\.

== Automatically querying wikidata ==
Is it possible in the future for this project to have things that automatically query wikidata? Like an infobox that gives people's spouses, or a function that queries a specific property on wikidata [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:10, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
:Yes, that is the long term goal. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:37, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
::What’s “long term” about it? We already have functions that query specific properties on Wikidata, [[f:Z32431]] being a simple example.

== Searching for other namespaces in the search bar ==
Something that has always irked me with Wikidata, Wikifunctions, and now Abstract Wiki is that there are no search suggestions when you are searching in other namespaces in the search bar. For example, if I were to type "Abstract Wikipedia:", nothing shows up. Whereas on enwiki, you can do this just fine. Is this because these sites are using a more "modified" version of MediaWiki?

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

I made a desktop app that helps with creating and editing Abstract Wikipedia pages.

:::::: I think the statements that Wikidata could make are limited by what references can be found. [https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/customizing-your-repository/licensing-a-repository This help page] makes it sound as if there are limited options for expressing a repo's licensing situation, so I am not surprised that MIT should be the blanket release, even if strictly speaking some of the code contained within is ineligible for copyright, or infringes on an existing copyright (which would need to be demonstrated). But I suppose [https://cpomagazine.com/cyber-security/taking-stock-of-the-anthropic-source-code-leak-ai-agent-compromise-signals-security-issues-claude-copies-ahead-of-massive-ipo turnabout] is fair play? — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 19:53, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::: @[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] I like the idea of the wikidata content being restricted based on sources provided. I will try to implement something like this in the next release. Any ideas of which particular statements are useful and should be imported more readily? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:28, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::: I meant in [[d:Q138963952|the Wikidata item]] ''for'' AWE, but in general I think our articles should incorporate references early on, since even abstract content needs justification. [[d:help:sources#Language-independent general principles|This help page]] may be handy; '[[d:property:P3680|statement supported by]]' could be useful for linking to biographical articles in the manner "According to [source], [claim]" (obviously adjusted to the relevant language structures in each language for saying such things). — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 20:42, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] oh that makes sense. But as for the wikidata sources, actually providing the sources is something that is trivially easy as far as accessing wikidata is concerned, but I am not sure how to give sources for claims in wikilambdas. Do you know how? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:44, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::I don't. Currently the distinction between content and format is unclear to me. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:06, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::I am however really liking section headers like the one here [[Q12539]] and I am going to include them in the next release [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:13, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Yes I think that adding sections to articles might be really the first part of the journey towards actually having somewhat readable articles. Although a lot of this is dependent on the article text actually rendering at all [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:21, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::::Yeah I think I am getting the hang of things. Adding sections and paragraph breaks to the new versions. Denoted by
::::::::::::::::<nowiki>{{p}}</nowiki>
::::::::::::::::for a paragraph break
::::::::::::::::and
::::::::::::::::==QID==
::::::::::::::::for a subheading
::::::::::::::::All content is now generated within paragraphs, and the <nowiki>{{p}}</nowiki> splits the paragraphs up.

== Numerous errors have been introduced, possibly due to the "AWE" tool ==
As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made.

::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki.

:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”

::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.

When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor.

It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask.

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content. Or will it not be possible to do it in that way on this wiki (or at all)? [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:28, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:Calling functions here is currently possible, but some templates are impossible to replace and functions are inconvenient in any case.

:::The problem with "functions wherever we can" is that most template-like functions are content based, like abbr or 0.

:::::It's not written down, I suppose. I didn't mean there was a rule against creating the functions, (feel free, if you'd like).

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated.

== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now). [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 06:56, 20 March 2026 (UTC)

::I would greatly appreciate automatic per-comment translation (the way Discourse implements it), and hope we find a way to implement that for the truly multilingual sites like this.

[[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
== Using Function IDs ==
It seems like when creating an article you cannot insert a function ID (i.e. Z6839) in a function call's function field and you have to type in it's name and hope it pops up (which it seems as though it doesn't always).

== Not showing functions that return strings where an HTML fragment is needed ==
It might be good to adjust the search function inside the abstract wikipedia editor to show functions that return strings as grayed-out where an HTML fragment is needed, as it took me a while to realize that [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z24102 label of item reference in specific/general lang] returns a string and not an HTML fragment, meaning that it doesn't show up when searching.

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

::Yeah, some kind of tutorial would be phenomenal. There could be some walk-through tutorials for creating some basic linguistic functions. That seems to be the bottleneck to progress here - practically all sentences follow the format "X is Y".

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language. What do you think how is it possible to get more people from small Wikipedia language versions involved in Abstract Wikipedia and Wikifunctions.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version. You should only use the generic ones in abstract articles. {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 21:50, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

:::Agreed, although I'm not sure how easy it would be to filter them out; there's not really anything distinguishing them from the general functions, they're both functions that take some input and return monolingual text as output.

== "It" in abstract wikipedia ==
How should the concept of "it" be represented in abstract wikipedia? Otherwise it leads to a lot of sentences like "Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Brussels is a large city. Brussels is...".

:Every concept is represented in Abstract Wikipedia through its Wikidata item, which would be [[d:Q6091500]] in this case. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "authoring language" (some sample texts of your idea would be helpful), but I don't think there's much improvement to be had while still writing in an abstract language (that is to say, most improvements would make the language more concrete).

:This is a tough problem, because the pronoun you would use is semantically different in different languages.

::Ooh. I could be wrong but I think wikidata doesn't have a property for "grammatical gender". For English I'll probably match on P21 and if it's an instance of Q5, and if it doesn't have P21 and is an instance of Q5 do they/them, if not an instance of Q5 and doesn't have P21 it/its, and otherwise match on P21.

Is there a possiblity to see all languages an article can be displayed in. I looked at [[Q2290517]] and it seems like there is not yet a German version for this article. From my point of view knowing what articles are missing in the language of interest is important for working on abstract articles. As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful. So I think it is also necessary for checking if the article can be displayed in the user interface language. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 21:17, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach. My proposed solution: I'm hoping the top level call from Abstract Wikipedia will be optionally allowed to send parameters like the grammatical number "plural" of the subject, which could be considered by the specific language alongside other context about the subject/object item to formulate the grammar (e.g. [[f:Z32496]]), and by the time it gets to the English constructor (e.g. [[f:Z32410]]), the English function will have the "subject is plural" boolean set (to decide "has"/"have" as well as the articles). I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language. From my point of view there are in relation to other programming languages many people who can write spreadsheet functions and they are translated into many different natural languages. In the past I did some experiments regarding the automatical conversion of Spreadsheet functions into the programming language R. I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions. Maybe the goal of making it abstract makes it more complicated and language specific functions are easier to create for many people.

Heya! Been working on the page [[Q778]] [and thus the [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z26570 Z26570] function] - is there a way to check if a word needs a definite article [i.e. the] or not?

Also, does anyone know of a function that concats two strings with a space in between? Would I just use [[wikifunctions:Z21394|Z21394]], adding a space between two calls to objects (i.e. "Mars" + " " + "Jupiter")?

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community.

::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?).

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it.

It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute.

== Searching for other namespaces in the search bar ==
Something that has always irked me with Wikidata, Wikifunctions, and now Abstract Wiki is that there are no search suggestions when you are searching in other namespaces in the search bar. For example, if I were to type "Abstract Wikipedia:", nothing shows up. Whereas on enwiki, you can do this just fine. Is this because these sites are using a more "modified" version of MediaWiki?

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages.

== Numerous errors have been introduced, possibly due to the "AWE" tool ==
As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 17:16, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:This is, of course, what happens when you use a slop-machine to write code. See existing discussion on [[User talk:Immanuelle/Abstract Wikipedia Editor#Creates inaccessible content]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] I thought you wanted everything nested in the paragraph things. That's why I did that, following your request that you linked to. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 17:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::I know. In the future, can you test whatever the slop-machine gives you ''on-wiki'' to ensure you don't mass-vandalize it again? Thank you! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:52, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki. When every page fails to render, it is very difficult to know if I introduced an error, or the program introduced an error. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:18, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”
::::[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 19:00, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] would you suggest removing the paragraph by default behavior in the editor over this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 19:50, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.
::::::We could consider also implementing a “sentence” or “content unit” function that simply calls “paragraph”, so we can later tell where the intended paragraphs are. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 21:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::This is not accessible for users with screen-readers, and thus not a viable work-around. Each paragraph must be in a paragraph tag. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::It’s sub-optimal, I agree, but every unit of meaning would be wrapped in p tags, which is more accessible than a series of bare fragments or failed function calls. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 17:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::If you do need to make inaccessible articles, please at least give them a category on the talk page. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:21, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::We’d need to agree an accessibility standard first, but I’m not planning on creating any articles until there are suitable functions available. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 22:36, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I agree. Accessibility standards need to be established and not just assumed. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 23:28, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I definitely do agree that we need accessibility standards, but this isn't really a nice-to-have that you debate about but rather the floor. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 00:27, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::When someone "vandalizes" it is not necessarily intentional, see [[wikt:vandalise]]. I do understand that Immanuelle has good faith, but at the same time, the "deployment" caused tens of articles to be broken, and furthermore I don't suspect something this bad would have slipped through had a human carefully reviewed the code. When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:25, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::It was a silent error that was only discovered by chance. What kind of testing would you have done to avoid this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 22:37, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]]": On Wikipedia, "[[:en:WP:VAND|Vandalism]]" is a technical term that means "editing (or other behavior) '''''deliberately''' intended to [[:en:Wikipedia:DE|obstruct or defeat]] the [[:en:Wikipedia:Five_pillars|project's purpose]]''".

::Would you be willing to raise this in the project chat? I'm thinking we are in an experimentation state that will keep improving incrementally just like the first edition of Wikipedia did since January 15, 2001.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

:::The team has already declined (or indicated that they had no plans) to do validation in this form, so I don't think a new ticket would be ideal.

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor.

It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now).

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version. You should only use the generic ones in abstract articles. {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 21:50, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

How should the concept of "it" be represented in abstract wikipedia? Otherwise it leads to a lot of sentences like "Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Brussels is a large city. Brussels is...".

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "authoring language" (some sample texts of your idea would be helpful), but I don't think there's much improvement to be had while still writing in an abstract language (that is to say, most improvements would make the language more concrete).

Is there a possiblity to see all languages an article can be displayed in. I looked at [[Q2290517]] and it seems like there is not yet a German version for this article. From my point of view knowing what articles are missing in the language of interest is important for working on abstract articles. As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful. So I think it is also necessary for checking if the article can be displayed in the user interface language. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 21:17, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language.

I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions.

== Code editing ==
I created and am attempting to edit [[Q687168]]. It is difficult to figure out what is going on because I am stuck at a visual editor. I would like to play around with comparing it to code on other pages, but the visual thing makes that pretty difficult. Also is there a way to edit things in a sandbox or something so I can experiment without it being in mainspace? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 23:25, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
:Code-based (as in, the underlying form articles are stored in, which was temporarily visible due to a bug when the wiki was just being set up) editing is currently not possible, and I'm not sure if the development team has any plan to implement it (cc {{ping|Jdforrester (WMF)}}). As for your issue, you should not be using a literal string, but a function call instead, which allows you to use one of the functions on Wikifunctions (how to pictured). Though the project is in its early days, a general guide on creating articles is available at [[Help:How to create an article]] with links to other helpful pages. As for sandboxes, you can subscribe to the [[phab:T421417| task on Phabricator]] if you have an account there.

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community. This needs to be put on ice until it can be launched properly with multilingual support and invitations to all wikis, particularly smaller ones.

:But so far, this early start of the not fully polished project allows us to learn so incredibly much. In the last few days we have learned so much more than we would have been able without the launch in months!

::Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Some uninformed thoughts below.
::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?). Then a central or watchlist notice for the actual launch, hopefully by which time there'd already be a small group of editors able to assist the influx of newbies.

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it. This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute. Sharing the work and offering people help with creating an function for an specific sentence can be a important way of getting more content in Abstract Wikipedia.

== Searching for other namespaces in the search bar ==
Something that has always irked me with Wikidata, Wikifunctions, and now Abstract Wiki is that there are no search suggestions when you are searching in other namespaces in the search bar.

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::: I think the statements that Wikidata could make are limited by what references can be found. [https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/customizing-your-repository/licensing-a-repository This help page] makes it sound as if there are limited options for expressing a repo's licensing situation, so I am not surprised that MIT should be the blanket release, even if strictly speaking some of the code contained within is ineligible for copyright, or infringes on an existing copyright (which would need to be demonstrated). But I suppose [https://cpomagazine.com/cyber-security/taking-stock-of-the-anthropic-source-code-leak-ai-agent-compromise-signals-security-issues-claude-copies-ahead-of-massive-ipo turnabout] is fair play? — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 19:53, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::: @[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] I like the idea of the wikidata content being restricted based on sources provided. I will try to implement something like this in the next release. Any ideas of which particular statements are useful and should be imported more readily? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:28, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::: I meant in [[d:Q138963952|the Wikidata item]] ''for'' AWE, but in general I think our articles should incorporate references early on, since even abstract content needs justification. [[d:help:sources#Language-independent general principles|This help page]] may be handy; '[[d:property:P3680|statement supported by]]' could be useful for linking to biographical articles in the manner "According to [source], [claim]" (obviously adjusted to the relevant language structures in each language for saying such things). — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 20:42, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] oh that makes sense. But as for the wikidata sources, actually providing the sources is something that is trivially easy as far as accessing wikidata is concerned, but I am not sure how to give sources for claims in wikilambdas. Do you know how? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:44, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::I don't. Currently the distinction between content and format is unclear to me. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:06, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::I am however really liking section headers like the one here [[Q12539]] and I am going to include them in the next release [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:13, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Yes I think that adding sections to articles might be really the first part of the journey towards actually having somewhat readable articles. Although a lot of this is dependent on the article text actually rendering at all [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:21, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::::Yeah I think I am getting the hang of things. Adding sections and paragraph breaks to the new versions. Denoted by

As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made.

::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki.

::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor.

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content.

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated. I'd courtesy ping those who have already created one but it seems we don't have that set up yet! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now).

::I would greatly appreciate automatic per-comment translation (the way Discourse implements it), and hope we find a way to implement that for the truly multilingual sites like this.

== Using Function IDs ==
It seems like when creating an article you cannot insert a function ID (i.e. Z6839) in a function call's function field and you have to type in it's name and hope it pops up (which it seems as though it doesn't always).

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "authoring language" (some sample texts of your idea would be helpful), but I don't think there's much improvement to be had while still writing in an abstract language (that is to say, most improvements would make the language more concrete).

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach. My proposed solution: I'm hoping the top level call from Abstract Wikipedia will be optionally allowed to send parameters like the grammatical number "plural" of the subject, which could be considered by the specific language alongside other context about the subject/object item to formulate the grammar (e.g. [[f:Z32496]]), and by the time it gets to the English constructor (e.g. [[f:Z32410]]), the English function will have the "subject is plural" boolean set (to decide "has"/"have" as well as the articles). I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

But I’d still think in terms of filtered statement sets, and perhaps different filters per language.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language. From my point of view there are in relation to other programming languages many people who can write spreadsheet functions and they are translated into many different natural languages. In the past I did some experiments regarding the automatical conversion of Spreadsheet functions into the programming language R. I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions.

Also, does anyone know of a function that concats two strings with a space in between?

How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community.

::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.

This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute. Sharing the work and offering people help with creating an function for an specific sentence can be a important way of getting more content in Abstract Wikipedia. Maybe it is unrealistic to find a huge number of people who are interested in writing functions who generate text. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:58, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

== Gendered languages ==
I've created [[Q79097672]], an article for a woman singer. In gendered languages however, it defaults to using masculine words.

== Why don't we just structure this with wikitemplates? ==
I feel like the project could be done a lot better by using templates kind of like how wikipedia does them. Just the entire thing is templates that can be rendered in many languages. So like [[Q106289265]] would have the content \{\{Z26039|Q7257\}\}\ and could even have some aliasing done across languages so it could be \{\{subject is|Q7257\}\}\.

::What’s “long term” about it? We already have functions that query specific properties on Wikidata, [[f:Z32431]] being a simple example.

== Searching for other namespaces in the search bar ==
Something that has always irked me with Wikidata, Wikifunctions, and now Abstract Wiki is that there are no search suggestions when you are searching in other namespaces in the search bar. For example, if I were to type "Abstract Wikipedia:", nothing shows up. Whereas on enwiki, you can do this just fine. Is this because these sites are using a more "modified" version of MediaWiki?

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] oh that makes sense.

::::::::::I don't. Currently the distinction between content and format is unclear to me. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages.

:::::::::::::::Yes I think that adding sections to articles might be really the first part of the journey towards actually having somewhat readable articles.

As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made.

::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki.

:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”

::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.
::::::We could consider also implementing a “sentence” or “content unit” function that simply calls “paragraph”, so we can later tell where the intended paragraphs are. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 21:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::::::::It’s sub-optimal, I agree, but every unit of meaning would be wrapped in p tags, which is more accessible than a series of bare fragments or failed function calls. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 17:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::When someone "vandalizes" it is not necessarily intentional, see [[wikt:vandalise]].

When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it".

But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

:@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]], @[[User:Tenshi Hinanawi|Tenshi Hinanawi]]: Sorry about that; it was due to a production mis-configuration that I've worked around for now. Unfortunately the same bug also meant that the community's first Abstract articles were all mis-created into the <code>Abstract Wikipedia:</code> namespace, and I don't think we can move them into the proper positions right now, so they'll need to be re-created. Please reply here, on [[Abstract Wikipedia:Report a technical problem]], or file any issues you run into in Phabricator.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor. If I recall correctly, the default on other wikis is that the edit button next to the section heading on discussion pages opens only that section and in the wikitext editor. It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:[[Abstract Wikipedia:Report a technical problem]] would be more appropriate. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:14, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Temporary adminship ==
I'm requesting temporary adminship here (for 24 hours to a week) to help set up the wiki on the community side. As administrator on Wikifunctions, I designed the current layout of the main page (also used locally), among other things. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:16, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask. Cheers, [[User:VIGNERON|VIGNERON]] ([[User talk:VIGNERON|talk]]) 21:36, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::Ah, right! Please update the main page as I've requested on its talk page, as well as delete the existing pages on the Abstract Wikipedia namespace with QIDs (they are now redundant), and add the correct license to [[MediaWiki:License]].

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content. Or will it not be possible to do it in that way on this wiki (or at all)? [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:28, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:Calling functions here is currently possible, but some templates are impossible to replace and functions are inconvenient in any case. It'd be helpful if you said which templates you intended to import, but generally I'd say import them. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:33, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::I think what I wonder most is if we always should do multilingual templates with the traditional <code><nowiki><translate></nowiki></code> tags or use functions wherever we can. [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:42, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::The problem with "functions wherever we can" is that most template-like functions are content based, like abbr or 0. I'm assuming you mean templates that are more about meta stuff, which probably should '''not''' be functions, at least under the current idea. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:46, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::::Yes, I was only thinking about meta stuff. Where can I read about this idea you are referring to?

[[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:52, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::It's not written down, I suppose. I didn't mean there was a rule against creating the functions, (feel free, if you'd like). The main problem with putting them on Wikifunctions is speed and the fact that you must use HTML fragments (no wikitext), which to me makes it unreasonable.

::::::That's a fair point of view. The reason I asked was that it would be an excellent way of [[d:Q3033752|Q3033752]] (note to self, we need the functionality of [[d:Template:Q]]).

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated. I'd courtesy ping those who have already created one but it seems we don't have that set up yet! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now). [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 06:56, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
:I am not sure that we want "automatic" translation. But regular translation, I truly agree that we should have. There is a Phabricator created to enable the Translate extension on this wiki ([[Phab:T420656]]). <span style="color:#EAA">♥</span>[[User:Ainali|Ainali]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Ainali|diskussion]]</sup><sub>[[Special:Bidrag/Ainali|bidrag]]</sub></small> 07:42, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
::Yes at least the ability to translate user messages, so that I for example could read the messages in this page in Spanish and reply in Spanish, and the rest of users translate them to their local languages. Otherwise cross-lingual collaborative effort isn't going to work unless everyone has a decent level of English as a second language. Thank you for the link! [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 08:42, 20 March 2026 (UTC)

::I would greatly appreciate automatic per-comment translation (the way Discourse implements it), and hope we find a way to implement that for the truly multilingual sites like this. In the wiki spirit, the outputs of the automatic translation should be savable and editable so that a) the computation of auto-translation only happens once into each target language and b) everyone can improve each of those translations. [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
== Using Function IDs ==
It seems like when creating an article you cannot insert a function ID (i.e. Z6839) in a function call's function field and you have to type in it's name and hope it pops up (which it seems as though it doesn't always). [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:13, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Not showing functions that return strings where an HTML fragment is needed ==
It might be good to adjust the search function inside the abstract wikipedia editor to show functions that return strings as grayed-out where an HTML fragment is needed, as it took me a while to realize that [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z24102 label of item reference in specific/general lang] returns a string and not an HTML fragment, meaning that it doesn't show up when searching. [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:30, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Cannot find Lorrain in the language list ==
Hi, I wanted to try generating an article in lorrain ([[d:Q671198]]), but it does not appear in the selection list. Where can I ask for it to be added, so that I can try experimenting with it?

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages.

:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language. What do you think how is it possible to get more people from small Wikipedia language versions involved in Abstract Wikipedia and Wikifunctions.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version.

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach.

I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

But I’d still think in terms of filtered statement sets, and perhaps different filters per language.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language. From my point of view there are in relation to other programming languages many people who can write spreadsheet functions and they are translated into many different natural languages. In the past I did some experiments regarding the automatical conversion of Spreadsheet functions into the programming language R. I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions. Maybe the goal of making it abstract makes it more complicated and language specific functions are easier to create for many people.

Heya! Been working on the page [[Q778]] [and thus the [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z26570 Z26570] function] - is there a way to check if a word needs a definite article [i.e. the] or not?

== Editing the direct code of pages ==
I find the current GUI editor to be quite clunky and harder for more complex topics.
I'm assuming there is some way that I can edit the code of pages, so I can more quickly write functions without clicking through GUIs. Like I heavily doubt someone wrote [[Q15433043]] by clicking through GUIs.
Also, does anyone know of a function that concats two strings with a space in between? Would I just use [[wikifunctions:Z21394|Z21394]], adding a space between two calls to objects (i.e. "Mars" + " " + "Jupiter")? [[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]] ([[User talk:EatingCarBatteries|talk]]) 20:19, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

I created and am attempting to edit [[Q687168]]. It is difficult to figure out what is going on because I am stuck at a visual editor.

Also is there a way to edit things in a sandbox or something so I can experiment without it being in mainspace?

As for your issue, you should not be using a literal string, but a function call instead, which allows you to use one of the functions on Wikifunctions (how to pictured). Though the project is in its early days, a general guide on creating articles is available at [[Help:How to create an article]] with links to other helpful pages.

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community. This needs to be put on ice until it can be launched properly with multilingual support and invitations to all wikis, particularly smaller ones.

::Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Some uninformed thoughts below.
::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?).

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it. This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute.

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages.

== Numerous errors have been introduced, possibly due to the "AWE" tool ==
As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 17:16, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:This is, of course, what happens when you use a slop-machine to write code. See existing discussion on [[User talk:Immanuelle/Abstract Wikipedia Editor#Creates inaccessible content]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] I thought you wanted everything nested in the paragraph things. That's why I did that, following your request that you linked to. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 17:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::I know. In the future, can you test whatever the slop-machine gives you ''on-wiki'' to ensure you don't mass-vandalize it again? Thank you! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:52, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki. When every page fails to render, it is very difficult to know if I introduced an error, or the program introduced an error. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:18, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”
::::[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 19:00, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] would you suggest removing the paragraph by default behavior in the editor over this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 19:50, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.
::::::We could consider also implementing a “sentence” or “content unit” function that simply calls “paragraph”, so we can later tell where the intended paragraphs are. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 21:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::This is not accessible for users with screen-readers, and thus not a viable work-around. Each paragraph must be in a paragraph tag. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::It’s sub-optimal, I agree, but every unit of meaning would be wrapped in p tags, which is more accessible than a series of bare fragments or failed function calls. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 17:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::If you do need to make inaccessible articles, please at least give them a category on the talk page. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:21, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::We’d need to agree an accessibility standard first, but I’m not planning on creating any articles until there are suitable functions available. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 22:36, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I agree. Accessibility standards need to be established and not just assumed. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 23:28, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I definitely do agree that we need accessibility standards, but this isn't really a nice-to-have that you debate about but rather the floor. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 00:27, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::When someone "vandalizes" it is not necessarily intentional, see [[wikt:vandalise]]. I do understand that Immanuelle has good faith, but at the same time, the "deployment" caused tens of articles to be broken, and furthermore I don't suspect something this bad would have slipped through had a human carefully reviewed the code. When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:25, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::It was a silent error that was only discovered by chance. What kind of testing would you have done to avoid this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 22:37, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]]": On Wikipedia, "[[:en:WP:VAND|Vandalism]]" is a technical term that means "editing (or other behavior) '''''deliberately''' intended to [[:en:Wikipedia:DE|obstruct or defeat]] the [[:en:Wikipedia:Five_pillars|project's purpose]]''".

::Would you be willing to raise this in the project chat? I'm thinking we are in an experimentation state that will keep improving incrementally just like the first edition of Wikipedia did since January 15, 2001. Just like back then I don't think it's a good idea to arbitrarily limit good faith editing. We probably will have to revisit these articles later as more and better functions become available but that in itself is not a valid argument for refraining from edits.

::I agree with your stub-flooding comment, I don't think it's particularly useful to have a bunch of articles that say nothing. The concern right now should be testing.

[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes
:I plan on attending the Monday volunteer meeting and asking about this issue. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 22:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

:::The team has already declined (or indicated that they had no plans) to do validation in this form, so I don't think a new ticket would be ideal. Either way, this shouldn't affect anyone besides those using a headless browser (or anyone using good, human-reviewed code and a headless browser), so I don't think it would be a priority anyway.

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor. If I recall correctly, the default on other wikis is that the edit button next to the section heading on discussion pages opens only that section and in the wikitext editor. It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask.

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content.

Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated.

== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now).

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version.

== Supported languages for an article ==
Is there a possiblity to see all languages an article can be displayed in. I looked at [[Q2290517]] and it seems like there is not yet a German version for this article. From my point of view knowing what articles are missing in the language of interest is important for working on abstract articles. As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful. So I think it is also necessary for checking if the article can be displayed in the user interface language. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 21:17, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach. My proposed solution: I'm hoping the top level call from Abstract Wikipedia will be optionally allowed to send parameters like the grammatical number "plural" of the subject, which could be considered by the specific language alongside other context about the subject/object item to formulate the grammar (e.g. [[f:Z32496]]), and by the time it gets to the English constructor (e.g. [[f:Z32410]]), the English function will have the "subject is plural" boolean set (to decide "has"/"have" as well as the articles). I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible.

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community. This needs to be put on ice until it can be launched properly with multilingual support and invitations to all wikis, particularly smaller ones.

:@[[User:Kowal2701|Kowal2701]]: thank you for your concern and suggestion. When this Beta started, we have immediately [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-19|mentioned that there might be the possibility of restarting the project]]. So that might indeed happen.
:But so far, this early start of the not fully polished project allows us to learn so incredibly much. In the last few days we have learned so much more than we would have been able without the launch in months! And it helps us to focus on where to put our limited resources, so that we can make the overall project better quicker than would have been possible otherwise. From that perspective, this has been quite a success.

::Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Some uninformed thoughts below.
::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?). Then a central or watchlist notice for the actual launch, hopefully by which time there'd already be a small group of editors able to assist the influx of newbies.

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it. This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute. Sharing the work and offering people help with creating an function for an specific sentence can be a important way of getting more content in Abstract Wikipedia. Maybe it is unrealistic to find a huge number of people who are interested in writing functions who generate text. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:58, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

== Gendered languages ==
I've created [[Q79097672]], an article for a woman singer. In gendered languages however, it defaults to using masculine words. An example: in Portuguese, it reads "Arlo Parks é um cantor", when it should be "Arlo Parks é uma cantora". Is there any fix to this?

== Why don't we just structure this with wikitemplates? ==
I feel like the project could be done a lot better by using templates kind of like how wikipedia does them. Just the entire thing is templates that can be rendered in many languages. So like [[Q106289265]] would have the content \{\{Z26039|Q7257\}\}\ and could even have some aliasing done across languages so it could be \{\{subject is|Q7257\}\}\. Code would be editable with a regular visual editor or code editor. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:34, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

== Automatically querying wikidata ==
Is it possible in the future for this project to have things that automatically query wikidata? Like an infobox that gives people's spouses, or a function that queries a specific property on wikidata [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:10, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
:Yes, that is the long term goal. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:37, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
::What’s “long term” about it? We already have functions that query specific properties on Wikidata, [[f:Z32431]] being a simple example. A list of spouses seems like a fairly simple function too, although there might be performance issues if there are a lot of spouses.

== Searching for other namespaces in the search bar ==
Something that has always irked me with Wikidata, Wikifunctions, and now Abstract Wiki is that there are no search suggestions when you are searching in other namespaces in the search bar. For example, if I were to type "Abstract Wikipedia:", nothing shows up. Whereas on enwiki, you can do this just fine. Is this because these sites are using a more "modified" version of MediaWiki? [[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]] ([[User talk:EatingCarBatteries|talk]]) 04:38, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
:I also find this very annoying. I'm not sure if there's anything that can be done about it or if it is a result of technical limitations ({{ping|Jdforrester (WMF)}}?). [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 04:41, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
::@[[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]], @[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]]: The search interface indeed is designed to only search the Wikidata concepts that would take up the main namespace. This is conceptually the same as the search on Wikidata.org.

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::: I think the statements that Wikidata could make are limited by what references can be found. [https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/customizing-your-repository/licensing-a-repository This help page] makes it sound as if there are limited options for expressing a repo's licensing situation, so I am not surprised that MIT should be the blanket release, even if strictly speaking some of the code contained within is ineligible for copyright, or infringes on an existing copyright (which would need to be demonstrated). But I suppose [https://cpomagazine.com/cyber-security/taking-stock-of-the-anthropic-source-code-leak-ai-agent-compromise-signals-security-issues-claude-copies-ahead-of-massive-ipo turnabout] is fair play? — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 19:53, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::: @[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] I like the idea of the wikidata content being restricted based on sources provided. I will try to implement something like this in the next release. Any ideas of which particular statements are useful and should be imported more readily? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:28, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::: I meant in [[d:Q138963952|the Wikidata item]] ''for'' AWE, but in general I think our articles should incorporate references early on, since even abstract content needs justification. [[d:help:sources#Language-independent general principles|This help page]] may be handy; '[[d:property:P3680|statement supported by]]' could be useful for linking to biographical articles in the manner "According to [source], [claim]" (obviously adjusted to the relevant language structures in each language for saying such things). — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 20:42, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] oh that makes sense. But as for the wikidata sources, actually providing the sources is something that is trivially easy as far as accessing wikidata is concerned, but I am not sure how to give sources for claims in wikilambdas. Do you know how? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:44, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::I don't. Currently the distinction between content and format is unclear to me. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:06, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::I am however really liking section headers like the one here [[Q12539]] and I am going to include them in the next release [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:13, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Yes I think that adding sections to articles might be really the first part of the journey towards actually having somewhat readable articles. Although a lot of this is dependent on the article text actually rendering at all [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:21, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::::Yeah I think I am getting the hang of things. Adding sections and paragraph breaks to the new versions. Denoted by

::::::::::::::::for a paragraph break
::::::::::::::::and
::::::::::::::::==QID==

::::::::::::::::All content is now generated within paragraphs, and the <nowiki>{{p}}</nowiki> splits the paragraphs up.

== Numerous errors have been introduced, possibly due to the "AWE" tool ==
As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made.

::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki.

::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”

::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.

When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor.

It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I'm requesting temporary adminship here (for 24 hours to a week) to help set up the wiki on the community side.

:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask.

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content. Or will it not be possible to do it in that way on this wiki (or at all)? [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:28, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:Calling functions here is currently possible, but some templates are impossible to replace and functions are inconvenient in any case.

:::The problem with "functions wherever we can" is that most template-like functions are content based, like abbr or 0.

:::::It's not written down, I suppose. I didn't mean there was a rule against creating the functions, (feel free, if you'd like).

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated. I'd courtesy ping those who have already created one but it seems we don't have that set up yet! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now). [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 06:56, 20 March 2026 (UTC)

::I would greatly appreciate automatic per-comment translation (the way Discourse implements it), and hope we find a way to implement that for the truly multilingual sites like this. In the wiki spirit, the outputs of the automatic translation should be savable and editable so that a) the computation of auto-translation only happens once into each target language and b) everyone can improve each of those translations. [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
== Using Function IDs ==
It seems like when creating an article you cannot insert a function ID (i.e. Z6839) in a function call's function field and you have to type in it's name and hope it pops up (which it seems as though it doesn't always). [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:13, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Not showing functions that return strings where an HTML fragment is needed ==
It might be good to adjust the search function inside the abstract wikipedia editor to show functions that return strings as grayed-out where an HTML fragment is needed, as it took me a while to realize that [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z24102 label of item reference in specific/general lang] returns a string and not an HTML fragment, meaning that it doesn't show up when searching. [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:30, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Cannot find Lorrain in the language list ==

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method. Spreading awareness as to contributing this way on the main page could also be helpful [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 00:35, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
::Yeah, some kind of tutorial would be phenomenal. There could be some walk-through tutorials for creating some basic linguistic functions. That seems to be the bottleneck to progress here - practically all sentences follow the format "X is Y".

== Involving small language versions ==
As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language. What do you think how is it possible to get more people from small Wikipedia language versions involved in Abstract Wikipedia and Wikifunctions.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version. You should only use the generic ones in abstract articles. {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 21:50, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

:::Agreed, although I'm not sure how easy it would be to filter them out; there's not really anything distinguishing them from the general functions, they're both functions that take some input and return monolingual text as output.

== "It" in abstract wikipedia ==
How should the concept of "it" be represented in abstract wikipedia? Otherwise it leads to a lot of sentences like "Brussels is the capital of Belgium. Brussels is a large city. Brussels is...".

:Every concept is represented in Abstract Wikipedia through its Wikidata item, which would be [[d:Q6091500]] in this case. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by an "authoring language" (some sample texts of your idea would be helpful), but I don't think there's much improvement to be had while still writing in an abstract language (that is to say, most improvements would make the language more concrete).

:This is a tough problem, because the pronoun you would use is semantically different in different languages.

::Ooh. I could be wrong but I think wikidata doesn't have a property for "grammatical gender".

Is there a possiblity to see all languages an article can be displayed in. I looked at [[Q2290517]] and it seems like there is not yet a German version for this article.

As I looked at random pages I got a timeout as my user interface is in German and the generation of the article in German was not sucessful.

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

We would need to do a decent amount of workshopping to define such a property well for the proposal there (it wouldn't just be "Chinese classifier for"; I think something like "Chinese count-classifier for"?

::::My main concern is if fundamentally we want to solve these sorts of problems this way.

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach. My proposed solution: I'm hoping the top level call from Abstract Wikipedia will be optionally allowed to send parameters like the grammatical number "plural" of the subject, which could be considered by the specific language alongside other context about the subject/object item to formulate the grammar (e.g. [[f:Z32496]]), and by the time it gets to the English constructor (e.g. [[f:Z32410]]), the English function will have the "subject is plural" boolean set (to decide "has"/"have" as well as the articles). I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language. From my point of view there are in relation to other programming languages many people who can write spreadsheet functions and they are translated into many different natural languages. In the past I did some experiments regarding the automatical conversion of Spreadsheet functions into the programming language R. I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions. Maybe the goal of making it abstract makes it more complicated and language specific functions are easier to create for many people.

Also, does anyone know of a function that concats two strings with a space in between? Would I just use [[wikifunctions:Z21394|Z21394]], adding a space between two calls to objects (i.e. "Mars" + " " + "Jupiter")?

How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community.

::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?).

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it.

It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute.

Is it possible in the future for this project to have things that automatically query wikidata? Like an infobox that gives people's spouses, or a function that queries a specific property on wikidata [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:10, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
:Yes, that is the long term goal. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:37, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
::What’s “long term” about it? We already have functions that query specific properties on Wikidata, [[f:Z32431]] being a simple example. A list of spouses seems like a fairly simple function too, although there might be performance issues if there are a lot of spouses.

== Searching for other namespaces in the search bar ==
Something that has always irked me with Wikidata, Wikifunctions, and now Abstract Wiki is that there are no search suggestions when you are searching in other namespaces in the search bar. For example, if I were to type "Abstract Wikipedia:", nothing shows up. Whereas on enwiki, you can do this just fine. Is this because these sites are using a more "modified" version of MediaWiki?

::@[[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]], @[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]]: The search interface indeed is designed to only search the Wikidata concepts that would take up the main namespace.

:@[[User:Amire80|Amire80]]: The Wikifunctions function model is documented (alongside its two JSON forms) because we anticipate people would (and should) build tools using it directly.

:For a concrete example (''not a commitment!'') of how the serialisation might change, whilst the system kept working as before, we might in the future add a top-level concept for an abstract article's infobox, which would be shown, edited, and stored apart from the rest of the article's sections, and used differently downstream.

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!

[[d:help:sources#Language-independent general principles|This help page]] may be handy; '[[d:property:P3680|statement supported by]]' could be useful for linking to biographical articles in the manner "According to [source], [claim]" (obviously adjusted to the relevant language structures in each language for saying such things). — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 20:42, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] oh that makes sense. But as for the wikidata sources, actually providing the sources is something that is trivially easy as far as accessing wikidata is concerned, but I am not sure how to give sources for claims in wikilambdas. Do you know how? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:44, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::I don't. Currently the distinction between content and format is unclear to me. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages.

:::::::::::::::Yes I think that adding sections to articles might be really the first part of the journey towards actually having somewhat readable articles.

== Numerous errors have been introduced, possibly due to the "AWE" tool ==
As [[User:Fram|Fram]] has [[w:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(WMF)#c-Fram-20260410163000-Fram-20260408131600|pointed out]] over on the English Wikipedia in his usual style, [[User:Immanuelle]] has been breaking pages such as [[Q711]] with edits such as [[Special:Diff/4383]]. I was able to [[Special:Diff/4415|fix this]] by changing "it" to Wikidata item reference in "defining role sentence".
@[[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]]: Judging by your edit history, you have introduced this error to a lot of pages. Before continuing with your work to make the rest of the articles from your list, [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]], I kindly ask you to fix the pages you've already made. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 17:16, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki. When every page fails to render, it is very difficult to know if I introduced an error, or the program introduced an error. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:18, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”

::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.
::::::We could consider also implementing a “sentence” or “content unit” function that simply calls “paragraph”, so we can later tell where the intended paragraphs are. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 21:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::::::::It’s sub-optimal, I agree, but every unit of meaning would be wrapped in p tags, which is more accessible than a series of bare fragments or failed function calls. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 17:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::When someone "vandalizes" it is not necessarily intentional, see [[wikt:vandalise]]. I do understand that Immanuelle has good faith, but at the same time, the "deployment" caused tens of articles to be broken, and furthermore I don't suspect something this bad would have slipped through had a human carefully reviewed the code. When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last.

:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it".

But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

:@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]], @[[User:Tenshi Hinanawi|Tenshi Hinanawi]]: Sorry about that; it was due to a production mis-configuration that I've worked around for now. Unfortunately the same bug also meant that the community's first Abstract articles were all mis-created into the <code>Abstract Wikipedia:</code> namespace, and I don't think we can move them into the proper positions right now, so they'll need to be re-created. Please reply here, on [[Abstract Wikipedia:Report a technical problem]], or file any issues you run into in Phabricator.

== qqx doesn't seem to work ==
I switched my user interface language to Hebrew. I'm trying to [[Special:CreateAbstract/Q18383|create a page]]. There's a plus button under "lead paragraph (Q8776414)". It has several items that begin with "Add" and continue with English strings that are probably function names: "section title", "paragraph", "HTML unordered list", etc. I tried using uselang=qqx to see what functions those are, but then the editing interface is not loaded at all. I see a yellow box with this text:
: (wikilambda-initialize-error)
: (wikilambda-renderer-error-footer-project-chat)
uselang=qqx works quite nicely in Wikifunctions and shows ZIDs of objects when their labels are used in the interface, but it seems to fail here. It would be quite nice to make it work. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Visual editor on this page ==
The first time I posted something here on this page (using DiscussionTools), I noticed a mistake and wanted to fix it. I clicked "edit" near the section heading, and it started editing the whole page in Visual editor. If I recall correctly, the default on other wikis is that the edit button next to the section heading on discussion pages opens only that section and in the wikitext editor. It should probably be the same here. [[User:Amire80|Amir E. Aharoni]] ([[User talk:Amire80|talk]]) 19:10, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

== Temporary adminship ==
I'm requesting temporary adminship here (for 24 hours to a week) to help set up the wiki on the community side. As administrator on Wikifunctions, I designed the current layout of the main page (also used locally), among other things. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:16, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Feeglgeef}} while I agree that temporary adminship could be useful, both personally and as a steward, I'm not sure it's a good idea to grant this request. First of all, you didn't really say why you need admin rights (and your history, both on Wikifunctions and Meta, make me want to be extra cautious). In the meantime, stewards and global admins can also (and already do) help if needed, don't hesitate to ask.

::Ah, right! Please update the main page as I've requested on its talk page, as well as delete the existing pages on the Abstract Wikipedia namespace with QIDs (they are now redundant), and add the correct license to [[MediaWiki:License]].

== Templates - per usual or as abstract content? ==
I was about to import a few templates that can come in handy in discussions and other meta-related activities but then realized that it may be a great use case for abstract content. Or will it not be possible to do it in that way on this wiki (or at all)? [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:28, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:Calling functions here is currently possible, but some templates are impossible to replace and functions are inconvenient in any case. It'd be helpful if you said which templates you intended to import, but generally I'd say import them. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:33, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::I think what I wonder most is if we always should do multilingual templates with the traditional <code><nowiki><translate></nowiki></code> tags or use functions wherever we can. [[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:42, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::The problem with "functions wherever we can" is that most template-like functions are content based, like abbr or 0. I'm assuming you mean templates that are more about meta stuff, which probably should '''not''' be functions, at least under the current idea. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 19:46, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
::::Yes, I was only thinking about meta stuff. Where can I read about this idea you are referring to?

[[User:Ainali|Ainali]] ([[User talk:Ainali|talk]]) 19:52, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::It's not written down, I suppose. I didn't mean there was a rule against creating the functions, (feel free, if you'd like). The main problem with putting them on Wikifunctions is speed and the fact that you must use HTML fragments (no wikitext), which to me makes it unreasonable.

== Articles now creatable properly ==
Hello all! To those not on the telegram (or not following), articles are now able to be created in the correct way. Any articles you have previously made will need to be recreated. I'd courtesy ping those who have already created one but it seems we don't have that set up yet! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
== Testing from a different language ==
I have set the UI to Spanish and there are some menus not translated (Create an article in the sidebar, for example). Where can I translate the content I see missing?
Also, I tried to create a very simple abstract article on the environment ([[Q43619]]) and it fails to render (Wikifunctions returned a failed response: Alcanzado el límite de tiempo en el Orquestador): I also found a random, decently big one ([[Q408]]) and it keeps loading for five minutes already in Spanish.
Finally, if this is going to be with the purpose of multi lingual edition, shouldn't help and talk pages like these be also automatically translated? Because otherwise it becomes just an output of information, an editor who isn't familiar with English would be able to read the Abstract Wikipedia in their language but unable to provide feedback (as I'm doing now). [[User:Hathor1719|Hathor1719]] ([[User talk:Hathor1719|talk]]) 06:56, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
:I am not sure that we want "automatic" translation. But regular translation, I truly agree that we should have. There is a Phabricator created to enable the Translate extension on this wiki ([[Phab:T420656]]). <span style="color:#EAA">♥</span>[[User:Ainali|Ainali]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Ainali|diskussion]]</sup><sub>[[Special:Bidrag/Ainali|bidrag]]</sub></small> 07:42, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
::Yes at least the ability to translate user messages, so that I for example could read the messages in this page in Spanish and reply in Spanish, and the rest of users translate them to their local languages. Otherwise cross-lingual collaborative effort isn't going to work unless everyone has a decent level of English as a second language. Thank you for the link!

::I would greatly appreciate automatic per-comment translation (the way Discourse implements it), and hope we find a way to implement that for the truly multilingual sites like this. In the wiki spirit, the outputs of the automatic translation should be savable and editable so that a) the computation of auto-translation only happens once into each target language and b) everyone can improve each of those translations. [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
== Using Function IDs ==
It seems like when creating an article you cannot insert a function ID (i.e. Z6839) in a function call's function field and you have to type in it's name and hope it pops up (which it seems as though it doesn't always). [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:13, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Not showing functions that return strings where an HTML fragment is needed ==
It might be good to adjust the search function inside the abstract wikipedia editor to show functions that return strings as grayed-out where an HTML fragment is needed, as it took me a while to realize that [https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z24102 label of item reference in specific/general lang] returns a string and not an HTML fragment, meaning that it doesn't show up when searching. [[User:VivianIsBee|VivianIsBee]] ([[User talk:VivianIsBee|talk]]) 13:30, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
== Cannot find Lorrain in the language list ==
Hi, I wanted to try generating an article in lorrain ([[d:Q671198]]), but it does not appear in the selection list. Where can I ask for it to be added, so that I can try experimenting with it?
Thanks! [[User:Poslovitch|Poslovitch]] ([[User talk:Poslovitch|talk]]) 19:48, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
:I'm not certain, but I know it's a bit of a process that I think begins on Wikidata.

== Making it easier to contribute ==
I'm aware that we're only a few days into the public beta of this project, and everything is a little rough around the edges, but I thought it could be useful to come up with some goals to work towards in order to make the site more accommodating and easier to contribute to, for newer and more experienced editors alike. (If there's a place where this discussion is already taking place please tell me and I can move there).
Here are some thoughts I had so far:
* Most of the current articles are extremely short, just one or two sentences long. I think it would be good to pick one article in each of a few main categories (e.g. one country, one type of food, one notable person, etc.) and work to try to include as much relevant information as possible, to serve as an example for future articles of similar types.
* As I understand it, a lot of the limitations for what kind of information we can include in an article is due to which functions exist on Wikifunctions. We have [[Abstract Wikipedia:Useful functions for article composition]], which is a good way to find some functions, but this list can't include every single function, so it would be good to have some way to find relevant functions on Wikifunctions. Is there a category containing AWP-related functions there? I'm not too familiar with Wikifunctions yet but if there is a category, we should link it there.
* In a similar vein, it seems like there are very few such functions currently available. It would be good to have some kind of guide as to how to create such functions that can be used here. I tried creating a new function there yesterday and it took me a while to find my way around, and I still haven't figured it out completely, so a guide specifically for people wanting to improve Abstract Wikipedia could be useful.
* Lastly it might be worth coming up with a list of policies and guidelines that we want to make to begin with. Currently there are none, and obviously it's quite time consuming to create new policies, but coming up with a set of basic ones would be helpful I think.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers, {{[[User:GearsDatapacks|GearsDatapacks]]|[[User talk:GearsDatapacks|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/GearsDatapacks|contribs]]}} 19:52, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

::I support the goal of making it easier to contribute. From my point of view a place where people can write example sentences in specific languages about specific facts and can request a function for it will be useful. So far I it is difficult for me to understand how it is possible to define content in a abstract way and convert it into texts in different natural languages. It seems to me like it requires to much available data at functions and Wikidata Lexemes what is not there for many small languages so far. So I prefer a monolingual approach based on Wikidata statements. Then people can write sentences what explain a specific Wikidata statement or multiple ones and this can be done for many languages. [[User:Hogü-456|Hogü-456]] ([[User talk:Hogü-456|talk]]) 20:49, 21 March 2026 (UTC)
:I do agree that creating these linguistic functions would be easier if we had a guide, though it's not exactly a cut and paste process (it requires a lot of thinking to figure out edge cases, whether your use case makes sense across languages, what will be included in the scope of your function, what will not be, what the utility will be, etc.). An example of thinking this out poorly is [[f:Z31405]], where it's painfullyy clear that the Abstract Wikipedia team didn't think these questions through well enough, where the description says that they couldn't even decide whether the function would output a phrase or a noun, there is little to no utility in composing articles, and the edge cases are insurmountable with their current approach.
:It's not exactly the same, but I've noted on the telegram that we should make it easier to make new language versions of existing functions. Unlike object labels, however, that requires either programming experience or a very in-depth tutorial, which we do not have. The lack of language-versions is natural if you think about it (if 1% of the world can make a Wikifunctions function and 1% can translate the concepts effectively between the languages we want, 0.01% can help us here), so the tutorial route seems like the only logical method.

::Yeah, some kind of tutorial would be phenomenal. There could be some walk-through tutorials for creating some basic linguistic functions. That seems to be the bottleneck to progress here - practically all sentences follow the format "X is Y".
::I've been looking forward to Abstract for awhile now (finding out it released yesterday, a bit too late), but it's completely unapproachable - it feels like I need a master's degree in both Computer Science and Linguistics in order to contribute to the growth of this project.

As Abstract Wikipedia can help small Wikipedia language versions offering more content in this language I think it is important to try to get people from such projects involved. From my point of view the highest chance to get it done is if people who know people contributing to small language version talk to the contributors and invite them to contribute to Abstract Wikipedia. In Wikifunctions I expected more involvement of small language versions and I think it is important to make it easier to contribute and find a way how to communicate with people who do not speak English. As it is not the case everyone can speak this language. What do you think how is it possible to get more people from small Wikipedia language versions involved in Abstract Wikipedia and Wikifunctions.

== Purpose of language-specific functions? ==
Some functions that produce sentences seem to have language-specific functions for every language, I.e. "Brazilian Sign Language: article-less defining". Why is this? What functions have this multiplicity? I thought one point of AWP was to have language-independend functions, all of which have specifications for how they would render outputs in different languages (where the choice of output language is decided at the client, or at the final step of rendering, not for each function in turn). [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 21:23, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
:This is just a side effect of how Wikifunctions works. Essentially the generic "Article-less defining fragment" checks which language you want, and then calls the language-specific version.

== [[f:Z26039|Z26039]] and [[f:Z26095|Z26095]] ==
This is a big mistake, and it's best we fix it now. Anything relating to particular languages or even groups of languages needs to stay all the way out of the generic functions. Languages have different rules for articles, some of them don't even have articles. This kind of thing cannot be reconciled at the general function-level.
As to the alternate way we deal with this, that's a little tougher. My first thought is a bunch of Wikidata properties that tell you whether an article precedes an entity's label in a particular language. That idea could work, but there are some obvious problems:
*Are there languages where the presence of an article is contextual, too?
*No one will fill these properties, especially in languages other than English, because we will accumulate dozens of them that have to go on every single word ever

:I agree there is a problem with the current approach.

I'm working on this particular example and all the required helper functions. If the English version works, I'll seek to make a configuration that allows similar in other languages.

== Authoring Language ==
Wikifunctions are kind of a pain to work with directly (no offense to the creators of them, they're an amazing platform and overall very impressive, just kind of by their nature they are built to be more abstract and closer to lambda calculus over "regular" programming languages), and that extends to Abstract Wikipedia. Has it been thought about making a sort of "authoring language" that is easier to work with than directly using Wikifunctions, but then "compiles" directly to Wikifunctions? My idea is sort of making a computer-parsable, natural language-agnostic conlang or even just some sort of custom markup language that could optionally be used to write abwiki articles and then would be stored along with the compiled wikifunctions and a timestamp of last compile so if an update was made then previous articles could be recompiled automatically. I'm of course not one of the abwiki staff members, so if this doesn't fit the "spirit" of it or something let me know, but I think it'd be helpful.

:I proposed adding support for Spreadsheetfunctions to Wikifunctions. It is better than defining a new language. From my point of view there are in relation to other programming languages many people who can write spreadsheet functions and they are translated into many different natural languages. In the past I did some experiments regarding the automatical conversion of Spreadsheet functions into the programming language R. I am interested in defining an Abstract Article in an Spreadsheet and I think it is possible. It is from my point of view important to lower the barrer to create an Abstract Article and creating functions in Wikifunctions.

== Editing the direct code of pages ==
I find the current GUI editor to be quite clunky and harder for more complex topics.
I'm assuming there is some way that I can edit the code of pages, so I can more quickly write functions without clicking through GUIs. Like I heavily doubt someone wrote [[Q15433043]] by clicking through GUIs.
Also, does anyone know of a function that concats two strings with a space in between? Would I just use [[wikifunctions:Z21394|Z21394]], adding a space between two calls to objects (i.e. "Mars" + " " + "Jupiter")? [[User:EatingCarBatteries|EatingCarBatteries]] ([[User talk:EatingCarBatteries|talk]]) 20:19, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
:For [[Q15433043]], it looks like they just wrote it in plain English and didn't use functions, so that's why it's so long I think. For joining, [[f:Z22504]] looks like a pretty good option. [[User:Infernostars|Infernostars]] ([[User talk:Infernostars|talk]]) 20:40, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

== Code editing ==
I created and am attempting to edit [[Q687168]]. It is difficult to figure out what is going on because I am stuck at a visual editor. I would like to play around with comparing it to code on other pages, but the visual thing makes that pretty difficult. Also is there a way to edit things in a sandbox or something so I can experiment without it being in mainspace? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 23:25, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
:Code-based (as in, the underlying form articles are stored in, which was temporarily visible due to a bug when the wiki was just being set up) editing is currently not possible, and I'm not sure if the development team has any plan to implement it (cc {{ping|Jdforrester (WMF)}}). As for your issue, you should not be using a literal string, but a function call instead, which allows you to use one of the functions on Wikifunctions (how to pictured). Though the project is in its early days, a general guide on creating articles is available at [[Help:How to create an article]] with links to other helpful pages. As for sandboxes, you can subscribe to the [[phab:T421417| task on Phabricator]] if you have an account there.

== Put this on ice ==
How are non-English speakers (who this project is specifically for) meant to develop this wiki's practices and policies if a) all project pages are only available in English, and discussion is largely done in English, and b) there's no attempt to get non-en.wiki communities onboard. At present this looks like it's just going to produce Anglocentric/Eurocentric content, which belies the whole point of having a wiki in one's native language. Yes it's early days and everyone is experimenting and bug-fixing, but the project has already been released to community control, with a predominantly English-speaking/European community. This needs to be put on ice until it can be launched properly with multilingual support and invitations to all wikis, particularly smaller ones.

:But so far, this early start of the not fully polished project allows us to learn so incredibly much. In the last few days we have learned so much more than we would have been able without the launch in months! And it helps us to focus on where to put our limited resources, so that we can make the overall project better quicker than would have been possible otherwise.

::Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Some uninformed thoughts below.
::Re communication: ideally people would communicate using functions, and there'd be some kind of visual editor where people type in their native language and it gets translated into functions, but I realise that's a pipe dream. Something that allows people who don't have a mutual language to communicate is imo necessary, maybe there could be a tool that machine translates comments. Machine translation ''sucks'', but so long as people get the gist of what is being said, that'd be better than nothing. I dread to think what disputes would be like though.
::Re invitations, idk what has already been done, but I would've thought now would the time to get some people from smaller wikis editing and experimenting, just an invitation on a wiki's main noticeboard would probably do the trick (is there a [[meta:MassMessage]] service for updates re Abstract wiki that could be recommended?). Then a central or watchlist notice for the actual launch, hopefully by which time there'd already be a small group of editors able to assist the influx of newbies.

:::What do you think about boilerplate templates. So writing a sentence and then marking the parts of the sentence what can be derived from Wikidataitems or the lexeme linked to it. This seems to me like an realistic approach for making it easier to contribute. I am happy you wrote about the predominantly English-speaking/European community involved in this project. It seems like it is different to contribute so far and I had the expectation people from small language versions come on their own and contribute also if they dont speak English. So far it seems to be not the case and I hope it will be easier to contribute. I think for the beginning the goal of Abstract Wikipedia should be generating sentences based on data. So supporting small language versions should be not the goal of the first phase as it seems to take some time and improvements of the structures to make it easier to contribute. Sharing the work and offering people help with creating an function for an specific sentence can be a important way of getting more content in Abstract Wikipedia.

:@[[User:Amire80|Amire80]]: The Wikifunctions function model is documented (alongside its two JSON forms) because we anticipate people would (and should) build tools using it directly. Conversely, the vague expectation ("plan" would be too strong at this point) for Abstract Wikipedia, on the other hand, is that we'll provide APIs to interact with the content, but its serialisation will change over time as features are added to better support the Abstract Wikipedia community's wishes.
:For a concrete example (''not a commitment!'') of how the serialisation might change, whilst the system kept working as before, we might in the future add a top-level concept for an abstract article's infobox, which would be shown, edited, and stored apart from the rest of the article's sections, and used differently downstream.

== Way to specify population ==
Hi! I was wondering if there was a function to specify the population of a place, possibly resembling the following:
:N X live in Y.
N would be the population size, X would be what comprises the population (e.g., humans, frogs, etc.), and Y would be the location. [[User:Babelball|Babelball]] ([[User talk:Babelball|talk]]) 15:43, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
:I don't believe we do. Thinking about it now, we should probably have a page where users can request linguistic functions in a more viable format than [[f:WF:Suggest a function]]. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 02:39, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
== The problem of when "X is a Y" and Y is a phrase ==
Consider [[Q486972]], whose second sentence is supposed to be "A human settlement is a populated place," generated using the "Article-ful instantiating fragment" function. However, it fails, because the implementation [[f:Z23414|Z23414]] inherently checks for a lexeme linked to the superclass ("[[D:Q123964505|populated place]]"). However, since "populated place" is a phrase whose meaning is reducible to the sum of its parts, there is no lexeme for it. Therefore, it's virtually impossible to say "An X is a Y" where Y is a non-idiomatic phrase.
Additionally, languages with grammatical gender are rendered particularly problematic. Consider [[Q6636]]. The first sentence of this article renders perfectly fine in English: "Homosexuality is a sexual orientation." However, it does not render at all in Spanish. That's because that language's NLG functions use lexicographic data to determine the gender of the phrase "sexual orientation." As there are no such data available for that phrase, it errors out. I did think about using [[f:Z29743|Z29743]] (description of class with adjective and superclass) instead, but that didn't work, since there's no item linked to the adjective "sexual"!
Any ideas for how to avoid this? [[User:JJPMaster|JJP]]<sub>[[User talk:JJPMaster|Mas]]<sub>[[Special:Contributions/JJPMaster|ter]]</sub></sub> ([[Q1270787|she]]/[[Q3437264|they]]) 00:21, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

But I suppose [https://cpomagazine.com/cyber-security/taking-stock-of-the-anthropic-source-code-leak-ai-agent-compromise-signals-security-issues-claude-copies-ahead-of-massive-ipo turnabout] is fair play? — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 19:53, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

:::::::: I meant in [[d:Q138963952|the Wikidata item]] ''for'' AWE, but in general I think our articles should incorporate references early on, since even abstract content needs justification. [[d:help:sources#Language-independent general principles|This help page]] may be handy; '[[d:property:P3680|statement supported by]]' could be useful for linking to biographical articles in the manner "According to [source], [claim]" (obviously adjusted to the relevant language structures in each language for saying such things). — [[user:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[user talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 20:42, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] oh that makes sense.

Do you know how? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:44, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::I don't. Currently the distinction between content and format is unclear to me. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] what do you mean by content vs format? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 21:52, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::In the most 'abstract' sense, an article would have as irreducible parts semantic content only (from Wikidata), with syntax handled by the group of functions responsible for getting things looking right in a given target language. In practice, the overall structuring of the article largely defines or limits the syntactic structures of language produced. This is sensible for an encyclopedia which has a fairly conventional or constrained sort of prose. Of course, a web encyclopedia needs more than prose. Hence the functions for making links and formatting text (right now directly to HTML, bypassing wikitext). Although this is a MediaWiki installation, no article has had media content added to it yet, since the formatting functions that would enable that aren't in place. So I would say that content and formatting are entangled, currently. A reference could be considered either: the text that provides the sourcing of a statement, or the formatting that enables this semantic content to read as a reference, perhaps inline or as a footnote, end note, or marginal note. [[f:WF:type proposals#Representing abstract content]] has a couple RfCs about this. — [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 01:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yeah I am very confused about what the intention of Abstract Wikipedia is and how much it lines up with the reality. I had thought that the articles would be mostly directly generated from wikidata.
:::::::::::::Only particular direction I see clearly is that I think we need articles on all of these pages [[d:Wikidata:List of articles that Abstract Wikipedia should have]] since they will likely bring a lot of traffic to the site and since they have a lot of information, people will have a lot of reason to come to this site and come up with new ways of expressing things on the pages. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:06, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::::::I am however really liking section headers like the one here [[Q12539]] and I am going to include them in the next release [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 04:13, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Yes I think that adding sections to articles might be really the first part of the journey towards actually having somewhat readable articles.

::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] I thought you wanted everything nested in the paragraph things. That's why I did that, following your request that you linked to. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 17:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::I know. In the future, can you test whatever the slop-machine gives you ''on-wiki'' to ensure you don't mass-vandalize it again? Thank you! [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 17:52, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::@[[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] the problem I faced is that I do not know how to actually understand error messages on this wiki. When every page fails to render, it is very difficult to know if I introduced an error, or the program introduced an error. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:18, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Warudo|Warudo]] I guess my question for you would be how did you figure out that this was an error on the page? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 18:19, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::That's a fair question. The way things are now you can't be sure if the error is because of technical issues with the site or a bad page. In this case it was rather easy though. The "dependency" parameter of [[f:Z28016]] expects a reference to a Wikidata item but you passed the string "it" to it. That is an obvious mistake so it was easy to tell that it's not a random error. [[User:Warudo|Warudo]] ([[User talk:Warudo|talk]]) 19:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::That makes sense. I will try to be a lot more careful with error detection in the future. Hopefully the technical issues with the site are fixed and I can see the content issues more soon [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 20:08, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::I suggest that “vandalize” is an inappropriate choice of word in this case. Whatever your feelings about the quality of the code or the care with which it is being deployed, I think you could manage to assume good faith on the part of a fellow contributor. Thank you.
::::At a technical level, there is an issue with simply bracketing multiple calls together to yield a paragraph, since a failure in any one call will lead to the loss of the whole paragraph. In [[:f:Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26]], the advice given was:
::::::“By the way, here’s one tip: currently, caching for Abstract Wikipedia happens on the level of the “fragment”. This means that by putting several sentences into a single paragraph, the paragraph as a whole is being run, may cause time-outs, and will be cached. Instead, if, for now, you put one sentence into each fragment, caching and evaluation can be more spread out and should allow for more content.”
::::[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 19:00, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] would you suggest removing the paragraph by default behavior in the editor over this? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 19:50, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::What we might try is wrapping each sentence as a paragraph, with occasional pairing of closely related sentences. That keeps failure isolated while preserving at least some natural flow.
::::::We could consider also implementing a “sentence” or “content unit” function that simply calls “paragraph”, so we can later tell where the intended paragraphs are. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 21:23, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::This is not accessible for users with screen-readers, and thus not a viable work-around. Each paragraph must be in a paragraph tag. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:31, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::It’s sub-optimal, I agree, but every unit of meaning would be wrapped in p tags, which is more accessible than a series of bare fragments or failed function calls. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 17:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::If you do need to make inaccessible articles, please at least give them a category on the talk page. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:21, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
::::::::::We’d need to agree an accessibility standard first, but I’m not planning on creating any articles until there are suitable functions available. [[User:GrounderUK|GrounderUK]] ([[User talk:GrounderUK|talk]]) 22:36, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I agree. Accessibility standards need to be established and not just assumed. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 23:28, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::::I definitely do agree that we need accessibility standards, but this isn't really a nice-to-have that you debate about but rather the floor. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 00:27, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::When someone "vandalizes" it is not necessarily intentional, see [[wikt:vandalise]]. I do understand that Immanuelle has good faith, but at the same time, the "deployment" caused tens of articles to be broken, and furthermore I don't suspect something this bad would have slipped through had a human carefully reviewed the code. When a contributor deploys a semi-automated tool and uses it to make edits at the rate {{ping|Immanuelle}} was at this rate, you are morally obligated to test it. This wasn't the first time the slop-machine that they used caused them to mess up tens of articles, and if Immanuelle doesn't exercise extreme care in the future, I don't suspect it will be the last. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 22:25, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::@[[User:Mdktb|Mdktb]] okay that is a good point. I think I was confused since I thought that we were more on the trying to get new users stage. I will stick to fixing up my errors and only making pages on things that I have a lot of stuff to say on. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 19:20, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

::Would you be willing to raise this in the project chat? I'm thinking we are in an experimentation state that will keep improving incrementally just like the first edition of Wikipedia did since January 15, 2001. Just like back then I don't think it's a good idea to arbitrarily limit good faith editing. We probably will have to revisit these articles later as more and better functions become available but that in itself is not a valid argument for refraining from edits.

:::Already here ;) [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:05, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
::I agree with your stub-flooding comment, I don't think it's particularly useful to have a bunch of articles that say nothing. The concern right now should be testing. I expect that the way in which we write abstract articles will change drastically eventually, so writing hundreds of articles is not only a waste of time but a debt. [[User:Feeglgeef|Feeglgeef]] ([[User talk:Feeglgeef|talk]]) 21:07, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:The error in question was that "it" ended up getting into the jsons as a string instead of the id for "it". This occurred due to an error with the program with function aliasing, functions and items can have aliases that are used to be human readable, and replaced with their codes during insertion. But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.
:My guess is that basically they do not have an api since they have no server side validation and were relying on solely client side, and did not anticipate someone building such a tool that accidentally bypassed client side validation through a cache injection which was motivated by UX purposes
:I plan on attending the Monday volunteer meeting and asking about this issue. [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 22:45, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
::> But apparently when you try to insert a nonexistent alias then it just inserts the text and there is no server side validation at all of edits.

:::The team has already declined (or indicated that they had no plans) to do validation in this form, so I don't think a new ticket would be ideal. Either way, this shouldn't affect anyone besides those using a headless browser (or anyone using good, human-reviewed code and a headless browser), so I don't think it would be a priority anyway.

== Sandbox page ==
The previous discussion about bot-created pages does raise a question: is it possible to have sandbox pages here? As far as I can tell, one can only create pages in the main namespace, and it has to be one page per Wikidata item. So there's no good place to experiment. Or am I missing something?
The only other thing I can think of is to write the whole abstract article (or a part of it) as a function with a composition implementation on Wikifunctions and then to call it from a user-space sandbox page here. That, however, doesn't actually seem to work: [[User:Amire80/sandbox|I've just tried to call a function from my user space]], and I just see "⏳ Function is being called…". That is possibly a bug that can be fixed (maybe [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422299 T422299]?), but even if it's fixed, it doesn't look like the best user experience. [[User:Amire80|Amir E.

== Administrator ==
=== [[User:Koavf]] ===
I am an admin on [[:d:]] and I've been trying to bring some structure to this wiki since it launched. If the community is hesitant about having local admins this early, I am willing to be a temporary admin and reapply after <var>x</var> months. [[User:Koavf|Koavf]] ([[User talk:Koavf|talk]]) 07:14, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
* {{oppose}} Most of your edits here are to templates (87/132) and categories (22/132), all of which are meta-esque/administration-related. Abstract Wikipedia is in its infant stage, and so its admins should be more content-focused. Not to mention, there are barely any admin-level tasks to be done at this moment (vandals, if any, can be handled by global sysops and stewards). [[User:NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh|<span class="skin-invert" style="color:black;font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:110%;font-weight:normal;line-height:normal">NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh</span>]] 07:36, 27 March 2026 (UTC)

Wikipedia has articles about more than 20 million topics in more than 300 languages. But none of these languages alone allow access to the knowledge about these 20 million topics: English has more than seven million articles, Croatian 230,000, and Swahili 100,000. Unless you speak those languages, that knowledge is not easily available to you. And as much machine translation has improved thanks to recent improvements in AI, it is still not at the point where it can produce translations you can trust for many language pairs.

Abstract Wikipedia does that without relying on AI. Each step of the way remains under human control, and is accessible and editable by the volunteers. There are no hallucinations, no inexplicable and unfixable mistakes: If anything is wrong, fixing it is just one step away, and there is full transparency about how the text has been created. It is not just a probabilistic model choosing the capital of Kenya per chance every time. It is human-curated and owned knowledge.

Only when Professor Duby reminded us that penguins are birds, that they do not swim but ''fly in water'', only then could the therolinguist begin to approach the sea literature of the penguin with understanding; only then could the miles of recordings already on film be restudied and, finally, appreciated.
But the difficulty of translation is still with us.
A satisfying degree of promise has already been made in Adélie. The difficulties of recording a group kinetic performance in a stormy ocean as thick as pea soup with plankton at a temperature of 31° Fahrenheit are considerable; but the perseverance of the Ross Ice Barrier Literary Circle has been fully rewarded with such passages as “Under the Iceberg,” from the ''Autumn Song''—a passage now world famous in the rendition by Anna Serebryakova of the Leningrad Ballet. No verbal rendering can approach the felicity of Miss Serebryakova’s version. For, quite simply, there is no way to reproduce in writing the all-important ''multiplicity'' of the original text, so beautifully rendered by the full chorus of the Leningrad Ballet company.

Vem har du med dig? frågade mumintrollet.
Det är Ninni, sa Tooticki. Ungen heter Ninni.
Hon höll fortfarande upp dörren och väntade. Ingen kom.
Nåja, sa Tooticki och ryckte på axlarna. Hon kan ju hålla sig där ute om hon är blyg.
Men blir hon inte våt, frågade mumintrollets mamma.
Jag vet inte om det gör så mycket när man när man är osynlig, svarade Tooticki och kom fram och satte sig.

Så gik kejseren i processionen under den dejlige tronhimmel og alle mennesker på gaden og i vinduerne sagde: »Gud hvor kejserens nye klæder er mageløse! hvilket dejligt slæb han har på kjolen! hvor den sidder velsignet!« Ingen ville lade sig mærke med, at han intet så, for så havde han jo ikke duet i sit embede, eller været meget dum. Ingen af kejserens klæder havde gjort sådan lykke.
»Men han har jo ikke noget på,« sagde et lille barn. »Herregud, hør den uskyldiges røst,« sagde faderen; og den ene hviskede til den anden, hvad barnet sagde.
»Men han har jo ikke noget på,« råbte til sidst hele folket. Det krøb i kejseren, thi han syntes, de havde ret, men han tænkte som så: »Nu må jeg holde processionen ud.« Og kammerherrerne gik og bar på slæbet, som der slet ikke var.

Alice had been looking over his shoulder with some curiosity. “What a funny watch!” she remarked. “It tells the day of the month, and doesn’t tell what o’clock it is!”
“Why should it?” muttered the Hatter. “Does ''your'' watch tell you what year it is?”
“Of course not,” Alice replied very readily: “but that’s because it stays the same year for such a long time together.”
“Which is just the case with ''mine'',” said the Hatter.
Alice felt dreadfully puzzled. The Hatter’s remark seemed to her to have no sort of meaning in it, and yet it was certainly English. “I don’t quite understand you,” she said, as politely as she could.

—¡Válame Dios —dijo don Quijote—, y qué vida nos hemos de dar, Sancho amigo! ¡Qué de churumbelas han de llegar a nuestros oídos, qué de gaitas zamoranas, qué de tamborines y qué de sonajas y qué de rabeles! Pues ¡qué si destas diferencias de músicas resuena la de los albogues! Allí se verá casi todos los instrumentos pastorales.
—¿Qué son albogues —preguntó Sancho—, que ni los he oído nombrar, ni los he visto en toda mi vida?
—Albogues son —respondió don Quijote— unas chapas a modo de candeleros de azófar, que dando una con otra por lo vacío y hueco hace un son, que, si no muy agradable ni armónico, no descontenta y viene bien con la rusticidad de la gaita y del tamborín. Y este nombre ''albogues'' es morisco, como lo son todos aquellos que en nuestra lengua castellana comienzan en ''al'', conviene a saber: ''almohaza'', ''almorzar'', ''alhombra'', ''alguacil'', ''alhucema'', ''almacén'', ''alcancía'' y otros semejantes, que deben ser pocos más; y solos tres tiene nuestra lengua que son moriscos y acaban en ''í'', y son ''borceguí'', ''zaquizamí'' y ''maravedí''; ''alhelí'' y ''alfaquí'', tanto por el ''al'' primero como por el ''í'' en que acaban, son conocidos por arábigos. Esto te he dicho de paso, por habérmelo reducido a la memoria la ocasión de haber nombrado albogues; y hanos de ayudar mucho al parecer en perfeción este ejercicio el ser yo algún tanto poeta, como tú sabes, y el serlo también en estremo el bachiller Sansón Carrasco. Del cura no digo nada, pero yo apostaré que debe de tener sus puntas y collares de poeta; y que las tenga también maese Nicolás, no dudo en ello, porque todos o los más son guitarristas y copleros. Yo me quejaré de ausencia; tú te alabarás de firme enamorado; el pastor Carrascón, de desdeñado; y el cura Curiambro, de lo que él más puede servirse, y, así, andará la cosa, que no haya más que desear.

You can imagine Piglet’s joy when at last the ship came in sight of him. In after-years he liked to think that he had been in Very Great Danger during the Terrible Flood, but the only danger he had really been in was in the last half-hour of his imprisonment, when Owl, who had just flown up, sat on a branch of his tree to comfort him, and told him a very long story about an aunt who had once laid a seagull’s egg by mistake, and the story went on and on, rather like this sentence, until Piglet who was listening out of his window without much hope, went to sleep quietly and naturally, slipping slowly out of the window towards the water until he was only hanging on by his toes, at which moment luckily, a sudden loud squawk from Owl, which was really part of the story, being what his aunt said, woke the Piglet up and just gave him time to jerk himself back into safety and say, “How interesting, and did she?” when—well, you can imagine his joy when at last he saw the good ship, ''The Brain of Pooh'' (''Captain'', C. Robin; ''1st Mate'', P. Bear) coming over the sea to rescue him. Christopher Robin and Pooh again. . . .
And that is really the end of the story, and I am very tired after that last sentence, I think I shall stop there.

== exemplary quality ==
is a high bar, even our best articles may not meet it for awhile. I think it should take into account completeness of topical coverage, grammaticality of output text in the [[meta:Abstract Wikipedia/Updates/2021-04-15|focus languages]] (Bangla, Malayalam, Hausa, Igbo, Dagbani), and with major statements supported by references. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 21:34, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
:@[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] have you seen my project [[Abstract Wikipedia:WikiProject Quality Prose]] where I tried to catalogue articles with complex sentences? [[User:Immanuelle|Immanuelle]] ([[User talk:Immanuelle|talk]]) 00:23, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
::Yes, I look forward to one day being able to express something as complex as (but decidedly more encyclopedic than) "[[w:Ithkuil|on the contrary]], I think it may turn out that this rugged mountain range trails off at some point".

[[Category:Abstract Wikipedia{{#translation:}}]]
==What is Abstract Wikipedia?==
Abstract Wikipedia is a new sister project of Wikipedia.
Wikipedia's vision is a world in which everyone has access to the sum of all knowledge. Abstract Wikipedia will help the communities of volunteers contributing to Wikipedia and its related projects to more effectively close knowledge gaps.
Wikipedia has articles about more than 20 million topics in more than 300 languages. But none of these languages alone allow access to the knowledge about these 20 million topics: English has more than seven million articles, Croatian 230,000, and Swahili 100,000. Unless you speak those languages, that knowledge is not easily available to you. And as much machine translation has improved thanks to recent improvements in AI, it is still not at the point where it can produce translations you can trust for many language pairs.
Abstract Wikipedia does that without relying on AI. Each step of the way remains under human control, and is accessible and editable by the volunteers. There are no hallucinations, no inexplicable and unfixable mistakes: If anything is wrong, fixing it is just one step away, and there is full transparency about how the text has been created. It is not just a probabilistic model choosing the capital of Kenya per chance every time. It is human-curated and owned knowledge.
==How does Abstract Wikipedia work?==
Articles in Abstract Wikipedia are stored in a notation independent of human languages. The interface of Abstract Wikipedia allows volunteer contributors to create and maintain that language-independent notation. In a second step, this notation is being turned into text in human language. The steps required to make this happen are also created and maintained by a community of volunteers, on Wikifunctions. These steps can use the data on [[D:|Wikidata]], looking up population numbers, dates of birth, or irregular grammatical forms, which have been added to and are maintained on Wikidata by communities of volunteers.
See [[Special:MyLanguage/Help:How to create an article|Help:How to create an article]] for a step-by-step guide.
Let's follow one example: [[Special:MyLanguage/Q1033|Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa.]] In Abstract Wikipedia, this might be stored as:
{{block indent|1=[[f:Z27243|Z27243]]([[d:Q1033|Q1033]], [[d:Q138758272|Q138758272]], [[d:Q6256|Q6256]], [[d:Q15|Q15]], Z27243K5)}}
Or, if we use English labels for these identifiers:
{{block indent|1=superlative(Nigeria, populous, country, Africa, language)}}
This is a call to a function on Wikifunctions. Based on the language, another function is being called. For English, we get the following function call:
{{block indent|1=[[f:Z27243|Z27243]]([[d:Q1033|Q1033]], [[d:Q138758272|Q138758272]], [[d:Q6256|Q6256]], [[d:Q15|Q15]], [[f:Z1002|Z1002]])}}
And that results in the English text
{{block indent|1=''"Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa."''}}
If we had chosen German, another function would be called:
{{block indent|1=[[f:Z27243|Z27243]]([[d:Q1033|Q1033]], [[d:Q138758272|Q138758272]], [[d:Q6256|Q6256]], [[d:Q15|Q15]], [[f:Z1430|Z1430]])}}
And that in turn would result in the following German text:
{{block indent|1=''"Nigeria ist das bevölkerungsreichste Land Afrikas."''}}
An example with more languages can be found here.<!-- where?? -->
Abstract Wikipedia brings together numerous communities from the Wikimedia Movement and allows them to work together. Basic lexical data and structured data about many topics from Wikidata, functions that capture the necessary computations from Wikifunctions, and images and maps from Wikimedia Commons are all tied together in Abstract Wikipedia and made available for the more than 300 language editions of Wikipedia.
The goal of Abstract Wikipedia is to make more knowledge available to more people in more languages, and to allow volunteer editors to be more effective and work across languages, no matter what language they speak. Improvements to the knowledge will automatically propagate to the Wikipedias, errors will be spotted faster and fixed more effectively, and collaborations across languages become possible. We are tearing down the language barriers which are keeping knowledge apart.

== Article-less instantiating fragment ==
<tvar name="3">[[f:Z26039]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "X is a(n) Y." The "entity" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "class" field should be what it is being described as.
=== Example ===
*: Entity: Q3870/Nairobi
*: Class: Q515/city
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Nairobi is a city"
Note that this function converts the subject's name's first letter to uppercase in some languages which may not always be appropriate. In such cases, you can use <tvar name="4">[[f:Z32954]]</tvar> to undo that behavior.
</translate>
<translate>
== Article-ful instantiating fragment ==
<tvar name="5">[[f:Z26095]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "A(n) X is a(n) Y." The "entity" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "class" field should be what it is being described as.
=== Example ===
*: Entity: Q89/apple
*: Class: Q3314483/fruit
*: Language: English
*: Result: "An apple is a fruit"
</translate>
<translate>
== Defining role sentence ==
<tvar name="6">[[f:Z28016]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "X is the Y of Z." The "subject" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "role" field should be which role it serves to the dependency. The dependency should be what is related to the subject.
=== Example ===
*: Subject: Q3870/Nairobi
*: Role: Q5119/Capital city
*: Dependency: Q114/Kenya
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Nairobi is the capital city of Kenya"
</translate>
<translate>
== State location using entity and class ==
<tvar name="7">[[f:Z26570]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "X is a Y in Z". The "entity" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "class" field should be what is being described as. The "location" field should say where it is located.
=== Example ===
*: Entity: Q3870/Nairobi
*: Class: Q515/city
*: Location: Q114/Kenya
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Nairobi is a city in Kenya"
</translate>
<translate>
==sentence case section title from Wikidata label==
<tvar name="8">[[f:Z32145]]</tvar> makes a capitalised section title (level 2 heading), using the label of the chosen Wikidata item from the appropriate language or a fallback.
=== Example ===
*: Entity: Q309/history
*: Language: English
*: Result: "<tvar name="open"><nowiki><h2></tvar>History<tvar name="close"></h2></nowiki></tvar>"
</translate>
<translate>
===plural sentence case title from Wikidata label===
A plural version of <tvar name="9">[[f:Z32145]]</tvar> is <tvar name="10">[[f:Z32839]]</tvar>.
'''Example'''
*: Entity: Q121769/reference

== Join text-like objects into HTML fragments ==
<tvar name="11">[[f:Z32234]]</tvar> combines certain text-like objects (currently [[<tvar name="12">f:Z6</tvar>|strings]], [[<tvar name="13">f:Z11</tvar>|monolingual texts]], and [[<tvar name="14">f:Z89</tvar>|HTML fragments]]) into one big HTML fragment. It is useful for making multi-sentence paragraphs and avoiding the divide between the 3 types in linguistic functions.
</translate>
<translate>
==Monolingual text as HTML fragment w/ auto-langcode==
[[f:Z29749]] converts a monolingual text into an HTML fragment. If the target language is not matched, it prepends a language code. This helps to still display a fallback when the functions available to a language are incomplete.
</translate>
<translate>
==Collective role sentence==
<tvar name="14">[[f:Z32326]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "Xs are Ys of Z". The "subject" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "role" field should be which role it serves to the dependency. The dependency should be what is related to the subject.
=== Example ===
*: Subject: Q523/star
*: Role: Q31464082/source entity
*: Dependency: Q9128/light
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Stars are sources of light."
</translate>
<translate>
==Simple present collective sentence==
<tvar name="15">[[f:Z32531]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "Xs verb Ys". The "subject" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "object" field should be the entity or concept that the subject is acting upon or relating to (i.e. what receives the action in the sentence). The "verb" field should describe the type of relationship or action between the subject and object, typically expressed as a base concept that can be converted into a natural verb.
=== Example ===
*: Subject: Q523/star
*: Object: Q11426/metal
*: Verb: Q6014822/containment
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Stars contain metals."

<tvar name="7">[[f:Z26570]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "X is a Y in Z". The "entity" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "class" field should be what is being described as. The "location" field should say where it is located.
=== Example ===
*: Entity: Q3870/Nairobi
*: Class: Q515/city
*: Location: Q114/Kenya
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Nairobi is a city in Kenya"
</translate>
<translate>
==sentence case section title from Wikidata label==
<tvar name="8">[[f:Z32145]]</tvar> makes a capitalised section title (level 2 heading), using the label of the chosen Wikidata item from the appropriate language or a fallback.
=== Example ===
*: Entity: Q309/history
*: Language: English
*: Result: "<tvar name="open"><nowiki><h2></nowiki></tvar>History<tvar name="close"><nowiki></h2></nowiki></tvar>"
</translate>
<translate>
===plural sentence case title from Wikidata label===
A plural version of <tvar name="9">[[f:Z32145]]</tvar> is <tvar name="10">[[f:Z32839]]</tvar>.
'''Example'''
*: Entity: Q121769/reference
*: Language: English
*: Result: "<tvar name="open"><nowiki><h2></nowiki></tvar>References<tvar name="close"><nowiki></h2></nowiki></tvar>"
</translate>
<translate>
== Join text-like objects into HTML fragments ==
<tvar name="11">[[f:Z32234]]</tvar> combines certain text-like objects (currently [[<tvar name="12">f:Z6</tvar>|strings]], [[<tvar name="13">f:Z11</tvar>|monolingual texts]], and [[<tvar name="14">f:Z89</tvar>|HTML fragments]]) into one big HTML fragment. It is useful for making multi-sentence paragraphs and avoiding the divide between the 3 types in linguistic functions.
</translate>
<translate>
==Monolingual text as HTML fragment w/ auto-langcode==
[[f:Z29749]] converts a monolingual text into an HTML fragment. If the target language is not matched, it prepends a language code. This helps to still display a fallback when the functions available to a language are incomplete.
</translate>
<translate>
==Collective role sentence==
<tvar name="14">[[f:Z32326]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "Xs are Ys of Z". The "subject" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "role" field should be which role it serves to the dependency. The dependency should be what is related to the subject.
=== Example ===
*: Subject: Q523/star
*: Role: Q31464082/source entity
*: Dependency: Q9128/light
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Stars are sources of light."
</translate>
<translate>
==Simple present collective sentence==
<tvar name="15">[[f:Z32531]]</tvar> creates a sentence along the lines of "Xs verb Ys". The "subject" field should be the subject (typically, but not always, your article's subject). The "object" field should be the entity or concept that the subject is acting upon or relating to (i.e. what receives the action in the sentence). The "verb" field should describe the type of relationship or action between the subject and object, typically expressed as a base concept that can be converted into a natural verb.
=== Example ===
*: Subject: Q523/star
*: Object: Q11426/metal
*: Verb: Q6014822/containment
*: Language: English
*: Result: "Stars contain metals."
