Create integrated interwiki mechanism for Wikisource

Français: Créer un mécanisme interwiki intégré spécifique pour Wikisource.

Problem: Interwiki mechanism based on a single Wikidata item used in Wikipedia is not suitable for Wikisource. Wikisource can present multiple editions of the same text as well as multiple translations to a single language, eg. made by various translators. The Wikidata model used to store information from Wikisource is two-level, based on "work" and "edition" Wikidata elements. The purpose of this proposal is to create an implementation of link-based interwiki system that used this model and is integrated with MediaWiki.
Français: Le mécanisme interwiki basé sur un seul élément Wikidata utilisé dans Wikipedia ne convient pas pour Wikisource. Wikisource peut présenter plusieurs éditions du même texte ainsi que plusieurs traductions dans une seule langue, par exemple, fait par divers traducteurs. Le modèle Wikidata utilisé pour stocker les informations de Wikisource est à deux niveaux, basé sur les éléments "travail" et "édition" de Wikidata. Le but de cette proposition est de créer une implémentation du système interwiki basé sur les liens qui utilise ce modèle et qui est intégrée à MediaWiki.
Who would benefit: All Wikisources
Français: Tous les Wikisources
Proposed solution: JavaScript based implementation is used in Swedish Wikisource. However, links created using JavaScript are visible only by browsers with JavaScript enabled. If the mechanism is integrated with MediaWiki, the links are available to any HTML parsing tool, eg. indexing machines. Another disadvantage of the Swedish solutiuon is that it needs to be maintained separately by each Wikisource. Wikisource communities are small and have no resources to do this. The suggested solution is to make the links integrated with page's HTML code by MediaWiki.
Français: L'implémentation basée sur JavaScript est utilisée dans Wikisource suédois. Cependant, les liens créés en utilisant JavaScript sont visible uniquement par les navigateurs avec JavaScript activé. Si le mécanisme est intégré à MediaWiki, les liens sont disponibles pour n’importe quel fichier HTML, outil d'analyse, par exemple, machines d'indexation. Un autre inconvénient de la solution suédoise est qu’il doit être entretenu séparément par chaque Wikisource. Les communautés Wikisource sont petites et n'ont pas ressources pour le faire. La solution suggérée est de faire les liens intégré au code HTML de la page par MediaWiki.
More comments: In pre-Wikidata interwiki implementation, multiple interwikis to a single wiki worked fine and were used in Wikisource. So invention of Wikidata became actually a degradation of interwiki system in Wikisources.
Français: Dans l'implémentation interwiki antérieure à Wikidata, plusieurs interwikis sur un seul wiki fonctionnait bien et était utilisé dans Wikisource. Ainsi, l'invention de Wikidata est devenue en réalité une dégradation du système d'interwiki dans Wikisources.

Comment @Tpt: is this linked with T180303 ? --Hsarrazin (talk) 17:25, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, except T180303 is about the other projects sidebar and not interlanguage links. But it should be fairly easy to implement if the interlanguage links have been fixed. Tpt (talk) 20:06, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia have same problem as well. C933103 (talk) 02:21, 23 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support maybe something with qualifiers on wikidata links can be used for this ? —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 15:00, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support Oh yes. Interwikis that are not 1:1 are very difficult to manage. For Wikisource we often have two translations, and I would really like to a) see both from the original, b) see link to original in both — NickK (talk) 15:51, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
