Module talk:WikidataCoord

Error of WikidataCoord

Precision of ±0.1° seems to make an error. ±1° is fine, as is ±0.01°. 213.205.251.75 (talk) 18:59, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can you show examples of what you mean?

@Trappist the monk: I suppose you should change Wikdata to Wikidata for the coordinate template. :-) --Gereon K. (talk) 20:59, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You could have done that, the module isn't protected.

The editing format is not standard source editing. I was afraid to edit code. --Gereon K. (talk) 13:06, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Strange error

There might be some strange error in module, see Talk:Statue of Lutgardis, Charles Bridge#Strange error. Jklamo (talk) 18:40, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with coordinate using dm (dms without s)

If the coordinate is without arcseconds, it falls over. I think the seconds should be defaulted to 0"
Not Samuel Pepys (talk) 11:31, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Are you sure? If I use the coordinates shown on the doc page for this module and remove the seconds portions that I get a working link:

47°34'12"N, 52°40'55"W → 47°34'N, 52°40'W

{{#invoke:WikidataCoord|main|47°34'N, 52°40'W}} → 47°34′N 52°40′W / 47.567°N 52.667°W

Do you have an example that does not work?

also, GeoHack out of the {{Infobox settlement}} gives different errors, such as
https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Argao&params=9_53_N_123_36_E_type:city(72366)_region:PH-CEB so doesn't give dim: but gives type:city(pop) and gives a region:PH-CEB which shouldn't be used for third-order places (check GeoNames ID = 1730195) Not Samuel Pepys (talk) 18:51, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am not going to even attempt to decode what it is that you are saying at Template talk:WikidataCoord § Changing. I just go cross-eyed when I try to read that. Clearly, there is something wrong with this from {{PH_wikidata/power}}:

{{safesubst:#ifexpr: {{{1|}}}<=625|625|3125}}}}}}))}}

I asked you for an example that shows that this module does not work with coordinates that omit seconds. I don't think that you have given me such an example. If this module is broken, provide an example using the simplest construction you can create.

I'll complete tomorrow. Not Samuel Pepys (talk) 00:23, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(I don't know how to write a left arrow) I tried 2 – 4 changing wikidata to full dms:

2b direct from template https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Module_talk:WikidataCoord&params=9_53_0_N_123_36_0_E_type:adm3rd_dim:16000

4b direct from template https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Module_talk:WikidataCoord&params=10_0_0_N_123_30_0_E_type:adm1st_region:PH-07_dim:256000

So different coordinate parameters with full dms (with s=0"). But still wrong!

Not Samuel Pepys (talk) 09:18, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

So what you are really complaining about is not that Module:WikidataCoord doesn't handle coordinates without seconds but that it does not include the template parameters in the call to {{coord}} when seconds are omitted. It would have been better for both of us had you simply said that at the beginning.

Yep, {{coord}} parameters are not passed when seconds are omitted. This module did not initially support degrees/minutes; that was added later by another editor so I'll fix that. You do know that {{coord}} has |qid=, right? See these:

{{coord|qid=Q4708210|dim:1000|format=dms|display=i}} → 10°19′54″N 123°56′46″E / 10.3317°N 123.946°E

{{coord|qid=Q315703|type:adm3rd_dim:16000|format=dms|display=i}} → 9°53′N 123°36′E / 9.88°N 123.6°E
