It does not try to guess a mapping though - that is still a job for humans to add a link in one direction first :)

reosarevok: does it check for other stuff? i.e. same VIAF for example?
15:15 PM
xplt
Yeah... From what I've seen so far, Wikidata's search is garbage because they don't use some fuzzy search or have not enough of search hints...
15:15 PM
reosarevok
zas: I suspect the IA is just having crappy times, the change only set a 10 min delay but that helps only when things work fine-ish
15:16 PM
SothoTalKer: no, and it probably should not because most of our viaf links are added from WD anyway
15:16 PM
zas
the thing is IA has crappy times every day ...
15:16 PM
reosarevok
So it would be fake reassurance
15:16 PM
zas: true :/ But this is meant as an improvement for the least bad times until we have a better way
15:17 PM
We could set a different delay, but it might still not help if the IA sucks that day
15:17 PM
Unless we set something that far in the past that "recent" would be kind of a joke by then :p
15:17 PM
SothoTalKer
reosarevok: does it matter?
15:18 PM
reosarevok
SothoTalKer: well, it does not help but makes the user think it is more legit
15:18 PM
So in that sense yeah
15:18 PM
It's like when WD sets MB as a source for something (other than a MBID)
15:18 PM
And treats it as a better source that "imported from Wikipedia"

Absolutely, but if you get effectively the same result by not claiming VIAF helps or MB is a source, then that is less misleading

reosarevok: How often does the bot run?
15:26 PM
reosarevok
Well, it used to run all the time, but it might be down again :)
15:26 PM
IIRC people asked to improve a few things
15:26 PM
zas
Imho this "recent" feature serves no purpose, we should just imaging somethign better (and not relying that much on IA)

zas: well, the purpose is to be pretty and showcase stuff
15:39 PM
(the front page is not meant to be used by hardcore editors)
15:39 PM
But yeah, it isn't pretty if the IA goes down
15:45 PM

are cover images and such backed up to/hosted anywhere else than the IA?

No
16:00 PM
The whole point is that the IA is willing to take the legal repercussions if someone complains and deal with takedowns etc
16:01 PM
Since the copyright for the art etc is often unclear but certainly not ours or the uploader's
16:02 PM
evelyn
yeah, I have seen scans and PDFs uploaded there too which I've been extremely wary of going anywhere near
16:03 PM
reosarevok
The IA or the cover art archive?

Yeah. I mean, the intention is good (they are a metadata source) but sometimes it can be a bit or a lot gray areaish

I only uploaded one PDf and it was from the record label's public site so it seemed like fair use
