You are the best

Just saying. Shani (talk) 16:14, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for this tool. Usually I just use glamorous but that's not very efficient. Can the queries be reused in FIST, in your opinion? I'd like to try making a patch for FIST, which among other things can filter articles by number of images present. --Nemo 08:51, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

None of the queries are particularly clever or anything, so yes, they can be re-used, or just recreated (since FIST is PHP and my code is Ruby). FIST almost covers the use case I'm targeting here, but not quite. But even if I were to offer a patch for FIST (which I'm, uh, unlikely to find motivation to do, as it would require me to use PHP :-p), the other big reason I wrote this tool is that I thought it needs to be something much simpler than the swiss-army-chainsaw approach of FIST. Like WDQ and some other Magnus tools (and much unlike the Wikidata Game), FIST is a power user's tool.

Anyhow, let me know if you think I can help. And I'm kind of motivated to try my hand at creating other tools, as time (ha!) allows, so if there's something else that could help you at BEIC, I'm happy to see if I can help. Ijon (talk) 11:14, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

For Wikidata additions

There is also toollabs:fist/wdfist/. Few wikis/templates actually display P18 anywhere, so it's hard to convince an institution that the work is worth it, but maybe you're lucky! --Nemo 07:37, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

From one wiki to all the others

At BEIC we're interested in acting across all languages so I prepared a query like quarry:query/22924 which while a bit dirty provides a number of suggestions: w:it:Progetto:GLAM/BEIC/Voci/Uso delle immagini. --Nemo 14:58, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
