You can embed statements from a Wikidata item in the corresponding article on Wikipedia using the {{#property:…}} parser function. This is largely unused on the English Wikipedia, but some language versions already use this for their infoboxes – for example the infobox on this page is partially generated from Wikidata: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankara https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankara
- nl 12y agoDo you know why the English Wikipedia doesn't use it? It is simply because the English Wikipedia information is generally better than the corresponding Wikidata information?
- MatmaRex 12y agoI believe it's simply because no one has yet put in the effort necessary to start using it. It might be a conscious decision, but if it was discussed anywhere, I completely missed that. (English Wikipedians in general are very "territorial" in my experience, so to speak, and rarely appreciate efforts that put some piece of "their" articles beyond their "jurisdiction", like Wikidata does. Editors from other language versions are a lot more welcoming.)
