Death date confusion[edit]
@Mike Peel: Frances Frost (permalink) is showing an error for the following infobox item:
- Died February 11, 1959 (aged 53) (Error: Need valid year, month, day)
The following wikitext is a formatted extract from {{Infobox writer/Wikidata}} with the qid and birth/death parameters for the article inserted:
{{age in years and months
|range=no
|{{#invoke:WikidataIB
|getPreferredValue
|P569
|name=birth_date
|qid=Q13563155
|fetchwikidata=ALL
|noicon=yes
|{{birth date|1905|8|3}}
|df=dmy
}}
|{{#invoke:WikidataIB
|getPreferredValue
|P570
|name=death_date
|qid=Q13563155
|fetchwikidata=ALL
|noicon=yes
|{{death date and age|1959|2|11|1905|8|3}}
|df=dmy
}}
}}
Previewing the above shows the error. The reason is that {{death date and age}} includes "(aged...)" in its output, and that is being used as the second parameter to {{age in years and months}} so it is giving an error. The "and age" is wrong. I have just reached this conclusion but am not sufficiently familiar with the details to do any fixes.
By the way, {{age}} has recently been updated and it could be used instead of {{age in years and months|range=no|...}} because |range=no is the default for {{age}}. Using {{age}}, the age in years only would be shown. Johnuniq (talk) 10:27, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
There is an error when Wikidata has two images[edit]
Show both filename of images in infobox. I fixed this adding the attribute maxvals=1 to image and caption like Infobox person/Wikidata. Works (now show one image and one caption) but show 1st image and caption of 2nd image.
I do not know how fix this. I tested with {{Infobox writer/Wikidata | fetchwikidata=ALL | noicon=on}}
in page Volker Kutscher.
Wikidata is https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q123108 (I added a 2nd image/caption because it is more new).--Davidhs0 (talk) 19:29, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
Get data from Wikidata[edit]
Why {{Infobox writer/Wikidata}} does not get all data from Wikidata? Now only get name, image and description (at least in my last edit). Davidhs0 (talk) 13:44, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
