Template:Infobox person/Wikidata/doc

This version of {{Infobox person}} retrieves various parameter values from Wikidata if enabled ("opt-in") as long as that information is sourced on Wikidata to a source other than Wikipedia. Editors can provide a local value at the article level to override or prevent specific fields from displaying, i.e., to indicate that those fields are unsuitable for inclusion in that article's infobox. This template has no option/parameter to display unsourced values.

The template calls Module:Wikidata and Module:WikidataIB.

Usage

Basic

Georges Duhamel

Leo Tolstoy

Just use: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

Infobox person/Wikidata/doc

</syntaxhighlight> and you should get a Wikidata-filled infobox. (Providing the article is linked to a Wikidata entry containing relevant information) This will by default only fetch information that is sourced on Wikidata. This is an important safeguard for BLPs. The subject's current age (or age at death) will be calculated automatically provided that the dates are sourced and full (i.e. 12 January 1958 not 1958).

General example

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

Infobox person/Wikidata/doc

</syntaxhighlight> This will prevent the infobox from displaying the fields for occupation or children. |noicon=on will suppress the pencil icons in favour of a single "edit on Wikidata" link at the bottom (see Tolstoy, right).

Specific example

Ludwig van Beethoven

In (Q255) <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

Infobox person/Wikidata/doc

</syntaxhighlight>

This fetches information on place of birth, baptism, death, citizenship, etc. - but not date of birth as that is not known.

Wikidata-specific parameters
For more information, see Module:WikidataIB § Parameters to getValue.

Parameter	Effect
qid	Should be used only in drafts (and removed when they are published) and documentation
fetchwikidata	Allows a whitelist of fields that may be imported from Wikidata; set to "ALL" for all fields; defaults to none
fwd	Alias for |fetchwikidata=. It is only used in this template with the image caption from the (P2096) qualifier of (P18)
suppressfields	Allows a blacklist of fields that may be displayed in this infobox; overrides whitelist; defaults to none
onlysourced	A boolean which will filter out Wikidata values that are unsourced or only sourced to Wikipedia. This 2018 RFC requires that Wikidata values displayed in article infoboxes must be sourced. Values no, false and 0 are all false; anything else is true.
noicon	A boolean to suppress the trailing "Edit this on Wikidata" icons for all fields extracted from Wikidata, replacing them a single "edit on Wikidata" link at the lower right corner of the infobox. The values no, false and 0 are all false (shows the icons); anything else is true (suppresses the icons).
list	The name of a template that the list of multiple values is then passed through. Examples include "cslist", "hlist", "ubl", "blist", "olist", "p-1". A special value, prose, produces "1, 2, 3 and 4". It is only used in this template with (P69), (P106), (P108), (P800), (P1455), and (P166).
