[06:33:31] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> Does REST API of MediaWiki support write operation
[06:46:48] <wm-bb>	 <lcawte> Yes, there are various documented write endpoints.
[06:46:49] <wm-bb>	 <jeremy_b> conveniently there's 2 separate APIs both called the REST API.
[06:46:50] <wm-bb>	 <jeremy_b> one included with mediawiki and one is WMF only.
[06:46:52] <wm-bb>	 <jeremy_b> https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:REST_API/Reference#Update_page there's some editing possible in these examples. (re @cvictorovich: Does REST API of MediaWiki support write operation)
[06:47:41] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> But not for Wikidata lexemes?
[06:47:57] <wm-bb>	 <jeremy_b> 🤷
[06:48:28] <wm-bb>	 <jeremy_b> why not use the other (not REST, original) API?
[06:51:09] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> Action?
[06:51:28] <wm-bb>	 <jeremy_b> I think so
[06:51:54] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> Why OpenRefine / QS etc. cannot write lexemes in batch
[06:52:11] <wm-bb>	 <Nicolas> There is even libraries around the Action API for Lexemes
[06:57:56] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> What's that (re @Nicolas: There is even libraries around the Action API for Lexemes)
[06:58:08] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> Is it for technical reasons (re @cvictorovich: Why OpenRefine / QS etc. cannot write lexemes in batch)
[07:09:20] <wm-bb>	 <lcawte> Can I suggest you try asking the maintainers behinds those tools? They'll have the best understanding of their own tools technical limitations. (re @cvictorovich: Is it for technical reasons)
[07:09:45] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> Would very like to but I may not who to ask
[07:23:21] <wm-bb>	 <Jan_ainali> https://forum.openrefine.org is the central discussion place for OpenRefine. There is also an OpenRefine-Wikimedia Telegram channel.
[07:23:22] <wm-bb>	 <Jan_ainali> (My guess is that is like why most articles on Wikipedia hasn't been written yet; no one has gotten around to do it. But this is just a guess.) (re @cvictorovich: Would very like to but I may not know who to ask)
[07:23:37] <wm-bb>	 <cvictorovich> I'm in that chat room (re @Jan_ainali: https://forum.openrefine.org is the central discussion place for OpenRefine. There is also an OpenRefine-Wikimedia Telegram grou...)
[07:25:24] <wm-bb>	 <Nicolas> there is already thread about lexemes, like https://forum.openrefine.org/t/openrefine-support-for-lexemes-in-wikidata-how-would-you-use-this/216 (re @Jan_ainali: https://forum.openrefine.org is the central discussion place for OpenRefine. There is also an OpenRefine-Wikimedia Telegram grou...)
[07:26:06] <wm-bb>	 <lcawte> And various gH issues from about 30 seconds of skimming Google.
