 * Preparing Wikidata talks for NYC meetup, WikiArabia and tech workshop in Ramallah.

Not really related to Wikidata, but I'm attending a meetup about technology in NYC.

 * Attended story time meeting.
 * Preparing Wikidata talks for NYC meetup, WikiArabia and tech workshop in Ramallah.
 * Working on https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/273780/ - build scripts for query service gui
 * Updated PropertySuggester and Wikibase Quality extensions for DataModel 6.0 T130051
 * Got code coverage working for myself on hhvm. (think this needs https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/environment, some configuration in my php.ini file and to temporarily disable xhprof) When updating the PropertySuggester and Quality extensions, it would be really helpful if these had closer to 100% code coverage.

Attending a panel discussion on topic of innovation in libraries, with Ben Vershbow (from NYPL labs) and others.
 * Wikidata was mentioned :) It's being used in the Bibliographic Identifiers for Library Location Information (Billi) project. (e.g. http://billi.nypl.org/classmark/nd1700-2495/about)

March 16

 * Working on search of labels and descriptions, using CirrusSearch / ElasticSearch.
 * Updating to use DataModel 6.0 (and work better with new entity types)
 * Talked about Wikidata at Wikimedia NYC meetup.
 * users are concerned about how difficult it is now to add authority control data when creating a new Wikipedia article, (e.g. about an artist) since authority control is now handled in Wikidata.

March 17

 * Holiday (travel to DC)

March 18

 * Looking into test failures for the build. (having some trouble to get LuaSandbox working on hhvm, though this works on Vagrant but tests don't fail there.  It's somewhat obvious anyway what the problem is)
 * Working on search
 * Maybe only work 1/2 day (and maybe some during the weekend + the meetups)

March 19-20

 * Wikimedia DC is co-organizing 2 edit-a-thons on Saturday and one on Sunday. (I can't attend them all, but maybe the ones on Saturday)

March 19

 * Attended editathon at the Smithsonian. Users are asking about enabling arbitrary access on Commons and the status of structured data support. They need arbitrary access, even just for non-language specific things like accessing authority control data for creator templates.
 * Attended accessibility edit-a-thon at the DC Public Library (Meetup/DC/DCPL March 2016). Obviously, accessibility is something that could use much improvement on Wikidata, and for editing Wikidata content used on Wikipedia.

March 20

 * Got LuaSandbox working on hhvm
 * Fixing test failures:
 * adapt MediaInfoView to changes in EntityView - https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/278606/ T130511
 * Fix Scribunto tests - https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/278677/ (causes above patch to fail on jenkins)

March 21

 * Work on search
 * Preparing for travel (want to swap hard drive, with fresh install of stuff w/o things like production ssh keys)

March 22

 * Travel to NYC

March 23

 * Travel to Amman

March 24-26

 * WikiArabia (presented about Wikidata)
 * people are interested in Wikidata supporting more calendars (e.g. Islamic calendars), though understand the complexity and challenges of dates and calendars in Wikidata.

March 29

 * Final preparations of talk for Ramallah

March 30

 * Tech meetup / workshops in Ramallah.

April 1-April 3

 * Wikimedia Hackathon 2016
 * working on citoid integration for Wikidata T131661

April 4-6

 * holidays

April 7

 * catching up on what's going on with Wikibase while I was away
 * Update Wikibase import scripts to work with Data Model 6.0

April 11

 * working on Wikibase integration with Elastic

April 12

 * making backup of my macbook hard drive

April 13

 * holiday

April 14

 * working on Wikibase integration with Elastic

April 15

 * attending https://dplafest2016.sched.org/ and probably demonstrate Wikidata stuff and talk to them about Wikidata

April 17 (Sunday)

 * attending Wikipedia edit-a-thon at the DC public library. http://www.meetup.com/Wikimedia-DC/events/230370742/ (not specific to Wikidata, and not work time)

April 18

 * Adjusting MediaInfo extension for changes in Wikibase View -
 * Looking into the status of the MediaInfo extension. (and trying to create entities using wbeditentity in the ApiSandbox) Problems include:
 * EntityFactory::newEmpty does not work for MediaInfo (somewhat easy to fix)
 * Places in the code when assigning a fresh id to a new entity that expect methods like ItemId::newFromNumber exist for MediaInfoId
 * Problem with serialization (calling Wikibase\DataModel\SerializerFactory::newEntitySerializer, which is aware of only Item and Property entity types) in ParserOutputJsConfigBuilder - fixed by Bene's not-yet-merged chain of patches
 * Problem with diffing: "Diffing the provided types of entities is not supported", "*": "#0 /var/www/wiki/w/extensions/Wikidata/vendor/wikibase/data-model-services/src/Diff/EntityDiffer.php - presumably what T78298 is working to address.

April 19

 * plan to attend story time meeting, though might need to join on hangout on my phone and hopefully that works
 * for part of the day, meeting with Smithsonian people about Wikidata
 * travelling to NYC :) and not sure how available I am after story time
