Template:Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox/doc

Testing sandbox for a wikidata-aware Infobox book.

This uses a 'blacklist' of fields that will never be displayed, by using the parameter |suppressfields, e.g.:

| suppressfields = dewey; congress

It uses a 'whitelist' of fields that will be fetched from Wikidata, by using the parameter |fetchwikidata (unless the field is suppressed or a local value is supplied), e.g.:

| fetchwikidata = author; genre; pub_date; pages; dewey; congress

Any separators can be used, except | and {} as you might expect.

The snag will be if a field name is included inside another field name like "date" is inside "pub_date". Try to avoid naming parameters like that.

As a shorthand the whitelist of fields to be fetched from Wikidata can be given the value ALL, for all available fields.

| fetchwikidata = ALL

Parameters supported so far are:

• author
• genre
• pub_date
• pages
• dewey
• congress

Usage

No Wikidata

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| suppressfields =
| fetchwikidata  =
| name           = Animal Farm
| title_orig     = Animal Farm: A Fairy Story
| image          = Animal Farm - 1st edition.jpg
| image_size     = 200px
| caption        = First edition cover
| author         = [[George Orwell]]
| country        = United Kingdom
| language       = English
| genre          = Political satire
}}

Works as a non-aware infobox: only locally supplied parameters are displayed.

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| name           = Animal Farm
| title_orig     = Animal Farm: A Fairy Story
| image          = Animal Farm - 1st edition.jpg
| image_size     = 200px
| caption        = First edition cover
| author         = [[George Orwell]]
| country        = United Kingdom
| language       = English
| genre          = Political satire
}}

The blacklist and whitelist can be omitted if unused

All Wikidata

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| suppressfields = 
| fetchwikidata  = author; genre; pub_date; pages; dewey; congress
}}

Fetches all of its values from Wikidata.

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| fetchwikidata  = ALL
}}

As shorthand, the |fetchwikidata= can be set to ALL to fetch all available fields. Any of them can be suppressed by |suppressfields=, or overridden by supplying a local value.

Never display genre

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| suppressfields = genre
| fetchwikidata  = author; genre; pub_date; pages; dewey; congress
}}

The genre field will always be suppressed, even if a local value is supplied.

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| suppressfields = genre
| fetchwikidata  = author; genre; pub_date; pages; dewey; congress
| genre          = Political satire
}}

Local override

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| fetchwikidata  = author; genre; pub_date; pages; dewey; congress
| genre          = Political satire
}}

The genre field is set to display "Political satire", no matter what is stored in Wikidata.

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| fetchwikidata  = ALL
| genre          = Novel
}}

The genre field is set to display "Novel", no matter what is stored in Wikidata.

Don't fetch genre

{{Infobox book/Wikidata/Sandbox
| suppressfields = 
| fetchwikidata  = author; pub_date; pages; dewey; congress
}}

The genre field will not be fetched from Wikidata.
