Editing Grokipedia, a first look
As a long time editor and developer in the Wikipedia and Wikimedia space, I'm of course sceptical about what Grokipedia is trying to be, and if it stands any chance of success. it may struggle to deliver the resilience, transparency, and community processes that keep projects like Wikipedia thriving, and in the early weeks the untouchable AI generated content was certainly not going to work moving forward.

Wikidata Map in 2025
Another year, another map, and another Birthday for Wikidata. Last generated in 2024 by @tarrow and @outdooracorn, this year I have put the work in just ahead of the 13th Wikidata birthday to have a look at what's changed in terms of items with coordinates this past year on Wikidata. And here it is! But really you need to look at the diff between previous years to see what has changed!

Slop in, craft out?
Earlier today, I sent this absolutely perfectly crafted piece of slop into GitHub Copilot... Right, but i want thje patche sot be / and /* always And as I already expected, due to using these LLM based coding agents and assistants continually throughout their evolution, the resulting change was exactly what I wanted, despite the poor instructions. Now, I'm sure there is actually some difference, and likely this depends on the relevance of the typoed areas, and how often such typos might also appear in training data.

Profiling Wikibase APIs and import speed
There has been some recent chat once again on the Wikibase telegram groups around importing, and the best approach to import a large amount of data into a Wikibase instance. 2 years ago I started a little GitHub project aimed at profiling the speed of loading using the action API, and various settings, DB versions etc, as well as trying out a bulk load API.

On the morning of 22nd March 2025 I received and read an email from Google giving me an "update" on my "Google Maps Timeline", little did I know this was actually telling me they had just lost some of my data... The email read... We briefly experienced a technical issue that caused the deletion of Timeline data for some people. We're reaching out as your account may have been impacted.
