Wikitext in OpenRefine

Development & Design
6

I'm in line with other comments here about better exploit the advantages of SDC:

  • it has more future;
  • it provides, IMO, lot better metadata management and resources discoverability;
  • it's 100% aligned with the OR paradigm
  • so it's faster (just to me?) to set the project media metadata
  • and mangling with wikitext is a pain in the *ss :expressionless:

I'm my experience, when you are doing the effort of learning a new tool like OR, you deserve to know how exploit it to the best of your benefit. The extra effort of dropping the old intensive wikitext based paradigm would be really rewarded.

P.S.: I'm so SDC believer these days I'm convinced this feature should be an extension bundled in standard Wikibase by default.
