Proposed at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#3rd_party_client , with additional comments from Lydia Pintscher. Currently Wikidata is only set up to directly serve data to the Wikipedias. The goal of this project is to also allow 3rd party clients to consume Wikidata data in the same way. What is missing is for example the change propagation to the new client. Right now if something changes these changes are propagated to the Wikipedias so they show up in the watchlist and recent changes there for example and pages using the information are updated. This right now only works for Wikipedias.
[replacing wikidata keyword by adding CC - see bug 56417]
Hi, this project is still listed at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#3rd_party_client Should this project be still listed in that page? If not, please remove it. If it still makes sense, then it could be moved to the "Featured projects" section if it has community support and mentors.
It definitely still makes sense but at the moment we can't take it on. I removed it.
closing this as there is no use keeping it around
