In the Romanian Wikipedia we already make heavy use of Wikidata in our infoboxes. We would like to participate in the beta testing session of this feature when the time will come.

Hello, and thanks a lot for your suggestion! Is there already a discussion within the community? We don't ask for a proper consensus but at least that the people who maintain infoboxes are aware and enthusiastic about it :)

Andrei Stroe (talkcontribs)

The response to your announcement is that discussion. It's brief for now, as there aren't many of us who maintain infoboxes, but I'll ask again for an explicit agreement.

Lea Lacroix (WMDE) (talkcontribs)

Awesome, thanks! I'll keep your contact and let you know as soon as I have a clearer view of the next steps and how your community can get involved :)

Do you have a link to an example of an infobox that reuses Wikidata's data?

Andrei Stroe (talkcontribs)

There are several examples. w:ro:Modul:InfoboxSettlement (see w:ro:Novi Pazar, Serbia for a page where it takes all information from Wikidata) and w:ro:Modul:InfoboxTeamSportBio (supporting w:ro:Format:Infocaseta Fotbalist and w:ro:Format:Infocaseta Handbalist - see w:ro:Ianis Hagi for a use example) are infoboxes written in Lua to obtain data from Wikidata. Others just rely on a generic infobox template and take advantage of some other useful templates dedicated to pulling data from Wikidata. One of these is w:ro:Infocaseta Galaxie, se as an example w:ro:NGC 1097.
