[04:08:29] No trouble! We gave a shout-out to your work, and if you want to know anything, feel free to ask! [09:18:19] vrandecic: Thanks! You invited the whole abstract wikipedia list to join a meeting later this day to review the tasks. Is this a new meeting you open to the community? [15:52:12] Argh [15:52:29] 😅 [15:52:53] Thanks [16:12:26] Hallo [16:12:53] There's a thing I ask here every now and then, and for now particular reason, it's time to ask it again: [16:14:20] When Wikifunctions is all done and deployed, it will be possible to store a function on Wikifunctions, call it from a client wiki, and get it to add some wikitext to a wiki page on the client wiki, right? [16:30:06] My understanding is that the functions produce text but don’t persist it to any particular wiki [16:30:58] This is based on my experience with Wikifunctions to date and what I understand to be the relationship between Wikifunctions and persistent storage [16:42:09] From my understanding, Wikifunctions will allow defining functions, and Abstract Wikipedia will allow generating text in natural language given some structured data [16:42:35] (and Abstract Wikipedia will rely on Wikifunctions) [18:19:31] What do you mean by "persist"? [18:27:54] I think that it will be generated on request, but not stored on the page as wikitext (re @amire80: What do you mean by "persist"?) [18:28:10] That sounds like a scenario that should be possible, yes; At least for generating ‘basic’ text (it can escalate quickly). for fancier or more text, more machinery is likely needed, like a template, more functions, some verification that the right things are combined etc (re @amire80: When Wikifunctions is all done and deployed, it will be possible to store a function on Wikif [18:28:10] unctions, call it from a client wik...) [18:41:24] OK, and is the functionality for calling a function from a client wiki already implemented? If not, for which time is it planned? [18:47:53] If I read this correctly, it isn't even scheduled yet https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Abstract_Wikipedia/Phases#Post-launch_tasks_of_Part_1 (re @amire80: OK, and is the functionality for calling a function from a client wiki already implemented? If not, for which time is it planned...) [19:20:09] I had read that page before I asked the question, and that's exactly what I understood, too. It sounds like an essential functionality, so.i wondered whether I was missing something, and decided to ask here. (re @Jan_ainali: If I read this correctly, it isn't even scheduled yet https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Abstract_Wikipedia/Phases#Post-launch_task...) [20:58:41] I don't know how I arrived here, rher3 therw there is any place where I can read more about this thing that it is very much interesting? [21:19:09] @A4exocet: See https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Abstract_Wikipedia for lots and lots of words :)
