Notification of automated file description generation

Your upload of File:Barnstar geo 2.png or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

University Station (MTR)

Wouldn't it be better to have the code for obtaining station identifiers from Wikidata (and other things) in the infobox template instead? Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
to reply to me 09:55, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

@Jc86035: The issue is that unlike zhwiki, enwiki does not have a specific MTR infobox. The station codes for MTR are stored in an MTR-specific property on Wikidata. So if we are to do an infobox-wide fetch from Wikidata, the infobox needs to first determine which railway system the station is from, then determine which property's data to fetch from. Wylve (talk) 10:01, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

@Wylve: I guess before Module:Wikidata gets advanced enough that it can automatically pull (e.g.) all values for any subproperties of P296 station code then it's probably better to have the parser function in the article. Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
to reply to me 10:18, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

@Jc86035: True. I am just experimenting anyway. I am trying to do the same on zhwiki, since they have a dedicated MTR box, and so far it is working. Wylve (talk) 10:23, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

And there seems to be some opposition to using Wikidata on Misplaced Pages, so I am proceeding cautiously. Wylve (talk) 10:24, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
