== Tour Down Under 2017 and its national team called UniSA-Australia ==

Hi Molarus, I wait a little before presenting you a new specific case. {{Q|28370724}} participate at the {{Q|22338002}} but is a {{Q|28492441}}, just a {{Q|23726798}} sponsored by a brand. Is it possible to put UniSA-Australia as a national team in the table ? [[User:Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick|Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick]] ([[User talk:Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 14:48, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
: That is no quick fix, it is a new feature. As a national team, it would not have a name, therefore we would need national teams with "official names". I have to think how that could be done. Maybe this could be done be a rewrite of the table. We have not done much effort into national teams so far, the example with "Australie" was something similar. Maybe after I have finished the classification table. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 00:37, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

That was a quick fix, it seems I had forgotten how that function works. See [[:fr:Tour Down Under 2017]]. Now it is enough to add a <P31> <Q28492441> (équipe cycliste nationale de marque) into the team. Code is at frWiki and WDwiki.  --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 08:32, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

== teamroster, notes and references ==

I have added to the documentation of table teamroster some additional information at [[de:Vorlage:Cycling race/teamroster/Doku]]. The part with  the notes works on all Wikipedias, while the references only at enWiki, frWiki and deWiki (references are available for infoboxes too). I have looked into the code and the properties for the notes are P1642 (acquisition transaction) and P1534 (end cause). As a value for P1534 I have found Q23498248 (died during competition), but I remember that we have used more items. For the references the properties are: P854 (URL), P1476 (Titel) and P577 (time). I have seen that this feature is not mentioned at the documentation of this module, but I think it is an important feature. Someday we should improve that feature and add more Wikis for the references, imho. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 07:08, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

== listofwinners, "above row 1" ==

I think the command "above row 1" has a problem. It should be "above 2016".  When I´m adding an older race into WD, the text row has to move one line down. I don´t think this is happening. Maybe I should write a python code to look for articles that use an additional command in the articles.  --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 07:11, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
:Good idea, it is true it can become difficult to count in the future when we will use more generally this function (for races that exists since 50 years for example). Tomorrow, I am at the press conference of the Grand Prix de Denain.

:: Cool! --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 10:10, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

== {{Property|P3157}} instead of {{Property|P2043}} ==

I saw that this module and all the cycling race events use {{Property|P2043}} for the race distance. There is a specific property {{Property|P3157}} for such cases, since distances and dimensions are different concepts. Do you think it is possible to migrate cycling races and this module to {{Property|P3157}}? —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 17:10, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

: The problem is not changing the code, but changing what is in the heads of the editors and in the database. A first step is to add P3157 as alternative into the code. I have changed the code, the documentation and the item of the infobox "Rund um Köln 2015" (on this page). --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 20:01, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

::Thanks, looks good at first glance! The module needs to support both versions for a longer time anyway, since editors do indeed need to adopt these changes first. Do you think it is a good idea to migrate existing claims from P2043 to P3157 with a bot? Cycle sport is the only type of sport that uses P2043 for events at the moment (~2650 claims as far as I see)… —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 21:05, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

::: That is the second step. Maybe [[Wikidata:Bot requests]] is a way to do that? It is no difficult bot job, therefore it is OK to ask for it. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 07:14, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

::::Yes, [[Wikidata:Bot requests]] would be the right place to ask. I’d suggest to also remove all bounds which are currently still in use: {{SPARQL|query=SELECT ?item ?itemLabel ?length ?upperBound ?lowerBound {
  ?item p:P2043 [ psv:P2043 ?value ] . # items that use P2043 (length)
  ?value wikibase:quantityAmount ?length .
  OPTIONAL {
    ?value wikibase:quantityUpperBound ?upperBound; wikibase:quantityLowerBound ?lowerBound .
  }
  ?item wdt:P31/wdt:P279* wd:Q13406554 . # and have P31 with subclass of sport competition (Q13406554)
#  MINUS { # activate this to filter away items that are related to cycle sport
#    VALUES ?cyclingClasses { wd:Q15091377 wd:Q18131152 }
#    ?item wdt:P31/wdt:P279* ?cyclingClasses . # but not P31 with subclass of cycling race (Q15091377) or stage (Q18131152)
#  }
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language 'en' }
}
}} Is there any scenario in which they were added on purpose? Most (if not all) of the bounds are probably legacy stuff from the time when they were added automatically and you had to remove them after adding the value (which barely anyone did). —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 09:18, 14 February 2017 (UTC)
:::::OK. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 18:38, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

::::::I also found [[n:fr:Modèle:Article Tour de France 2016]] which relies on P2043. Which other templates/modules do we have which use this property? If we transfer P2043 to P3157, the former one will be directly unavailable and we have to move all templates ASAP as well. —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 22:07, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

::::::: I remember, that frWiki has a second cycling module from user Zolo, which would get problems too without changing the code. Maybe, the solution is not transferring the data, but copying the data? This way I don´t have to hurry to give the module with the code that can read P3157 to all wikis as soon as possible. And we would need a third step: Changing all the code that exist and a fourth step: Deleting P2043 data. PS: I have never heard before, that frWikinews is using our module. It seems that they have created a special module (how many?) just to print our classification table and some news (á la newsticker) about the Tour de France 2016 ([[n:fr:Tour de France 2016 : Christopher Froome s'empare du maillot jaune]]). I like the newsticker! Good idea!  --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 06:28, 15 February 2017 (UTC) 

::::::::Copy instead of move sounds reasonable, we probably do not break that much. I looked at [[Property talk:P2043]] to find more uses of P2043 in the field of (cycle) sports, but this French Wikinews template was the only one I found. As far as I see all the other P2043 users do not deal with sports. —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 06:50, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

:Just here for few minutes, I see this new property few days ago, and I think the best solution would be a bot do the job. We can imagine a constraint : if the item contain {{P|641}} = {{Q|3609}}, it will not be possible to use {{Property|P2043}} and a message will say to use {{Property|P3157}}. For what is in the head of our users, I can let an explanation when I will give them the new functions. Around 2650 claims, it is fantastic, we go very fast.

::::Frankly, I don’t really know what’s the problem. I filed a bot request some two weeks ago, but no bot owner has volunteered until now to do the job. Since I was on vacation for some time meanwhile, I did not find the time to develop a suitable bot by myself (to be executed using PAWS, which is quite comfortable to set up). Therefore, this task is still on my worklist and if no bot operator wants to help, I’m going to do this by myself.

::::::Do you have pywikibot sample code for the property move available? I saw several bots doing such tasks in one edit including qualifiers and references (thus it is indeed easy), but I have only very little experience with pywikibot and would have to study the docs a lot before I could claim that task by myself… Bounds removal does not scare me any longer, I’ve done that already.

::::::::: As far as I know, only few wikis have the module version of Cycling_race that is able to print both properties. At least the two other cycling modules in itwiki and frwiki are not able to print the new property. I think the module in frnews is not showing length data. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 01:08, 7 March 2017 (UTC)

=== June 2018 update ===
{{Ping|Molarus|Edgars2007|Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick|Cs-wolves|Hejsa|Repf72|p=}}, {{Ping|Douglasfugazi|Bergenga}} Quite some time has passed since I proposed this change, now I found it again on my worklist. Fortunately, the main cycling module with support for {{P|P3157}} ''and'' {{P|P2043}} (as fallback) has meanwhile been deployed to most wikis, so that only a few places to fix remain:
* [[:fa:پودمان:Cycling race]] (old version)
* [[:n:fr:Module:Cycling race]] (old version)
* [[:it:Modulo:Ciclismo]] (different module, easy to fix)
* [[:n:fr:Modèle:Article Tour de France 2016]] (different module)
I still think we should harmonize this, as currently there is a mixed use of {{P|P2043}} and {{P|P3157}} which is clearly a very undesirable situation. How can we deploy the most recent version of this module to fawiki and frwikinews? The other two modules can be updated manually.

Apart from that I am perfectly ready to move all remaining {{P|P2043}} claims of cycling events to {{P|P3157}} including all (optional) qualifiers and references. It would take around one hour to perform this move. The issue regarding bounds, mentioned above by me, has meanwhile been solved. —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:22, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

:Hi everybody. In fact, some months ago I read about this issue ({{P|P3157}} and {{P|P2043}}) and could verify that {{P|P3157}} is the better property to set distances for cyclism, but I found some bugs for {{P|P3157}} in the implemented code (when I used {{P|P3157}} no distance data was present when I used some functions as listofstages) and I proceded to fix them in the code as you could see. Now, all my datafill on Wikidata uses {{P|P3157}} and I think it is important as you say fix all now. [[User:Repf72|Repf72]] ([[User talk:Repf72|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 01:22, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

'''Update:'''
* This morning, I have moved all cases where {{P|P2043}} was used but {{P|P3157}} wasn’t (4280 items affected). I have collected excessive information about use of these two properties in all connected Wikipedia articles (more than 36k uses) before and after the move. I am now going to look where information in articles was lost in spite of the long preparation time.
* Besides this I have updated [[:it:Modulo:Ciclismo]] and [[:n:fr:Modèle:Article Tour de France 2016]] to use the new property, and requested updates of [[:fa:پودمان:Cycling race]] and [[:n:fr:Module:Cycling race]] on their local talk pages.
* Feel free to report other important issues if you’ve observed anything of relevance.
* I also plan to remove duplicated information (items that contain both properties) in future from ~50 items.
—[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 12:06, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

'''Final update:'''
* fawiki meanwhile got a new version of this module; frwikinews not yet, but the module does not seem to use length/distance data from Wikidata there.
* After thorough checks, I am 99% sure that there was no transcluded data in articles lost. We gained 29 instances of data use just due to the move and lost 5 (all Wikidata covi pages, i.e. no problem); in 20 cases, the API is not able to report correctly/consistently which data is used, but by manual checking it is clear that all required data is still in place.
* I also removed duplicated {{P|P2043}} data when identical {{P|P3157}} data was already in place (50 items) and checked whether we lost any transclusions due to that removal (we didn’t).
All of that in summary means that all instances of cycling races and stages use {{P|P3157}} right now. I will occasionally look whether new {{P|P2043}} emerged, and move them without further notice to {{P|P3157}}. As far as I can see, documentation is already updated to reflect this. If you happen to spot any inconsistencies, please let me know. —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:46, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

== sorting teamroster ==

Wilier Triestina-Selle Italia 2017 (Q28045646) is the first season item where a rider (Alberto Cecchin) is added in a non alphabetical order. I did this to test the sort parameter for this table. It did not work, but I found the error and fixed it at deWiki and WDwiki. <nowiki>{{Cycling race/teamroster|Q28045646|sort}}</nowiki>) tells the table to sort the riders. The result is that Alberto Cecchin is sorted at the right place at [[:de:Wilier Triestina (Radsportteam)]]. By the way, lvWiki, ruWiki and mkWiki are using this sorting function without adding the "sort" parameter in the article. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 00:45, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
:How it works ? I remember by the past we where obliged to use ''{{P|734}}, {{P|735}}'' to always sort cyclists, but we never start because we are currently add {{P|734}} to cyclists (The fact is it is easy to add {{P|735}} because the major part of items are created, it is not again the case for family names). [[User:Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick|Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick]] ([[User talk:Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 14:57, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
:: There is no problem if the name consists of two parts (In Japanese names the family name is written first, but this is not in the code). It gets difficult if the name consists of three or four parts. P734 and P735 is used in the code, but also this list {'da', 'de', 'di', 'De', 'la', 'Le', 'ten', 'van', 'Van'} (plus the translations for lvwiki, mkwiki and ruwiki) and sometimes I´m just guessing. As far as I remember, the solution was that the sorting algorithm should not sort always right and editors could just add P734 or P735 in the case it is sorted wrong. And most of the time the riders are already sorted by entering their names in alphabetical order into Wikidata. Only in non-latin Wikipedias this is not the case, but I know only from mkWiki that the algorithm works there quite good. This is the first time that I have seen sorting in a latin script wiki too. There was another problem with non-latin Wikis: Most of the time they have translated and untranslated rider names in the same table. The solution is to sort each group on its own and show first all translated riders and then all untranslated riders. 
:: About P734 or P735. I´m just counting the number of name parts for each property and it seems that I do not use P735 for anything. But it does not make a difference if I use this property or that property or both properties, only it is not in the code. That is done at line 2484-2486 in the code "if not done and familyname==2". "2" means that the family name has two name parts out of three name parts. If the name has more then 3 name pars, I´m looking into the list or I´m guessing. I would say, there is room to improve the sorting code. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 02:58, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

==translate==
Can we create [[Module:Cycling race/L10n]] and move all translations to it.!? The module is to long and I it's take a long time to be saved when I tried to edit it, the network some time disconnect before it's done. And Regardless from that, I think it would be better for translation.
I created [[w:ar:Module:Cycling_race/L10n]] at arwiki --[[User:Mr. Ibrahem|Mr. Ibrahem]] ([[User talk:Mr. Ibrahem|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 19:23, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

: I could write special code for arWiki, but I would prefer that the lang Module is used for that. And I think the solution would be that each Wiki should have only their own translations (maybe plus another translation?) in their lang module, as an option. At the moment, we say that if there in no translation for a wiki use language x as fall back. That could be changed by looking into the lang module before going to the fall back translation. If there is no data in the lang module or no lang module, the fall back translation should be taken. It should not be difficult to code that. We would need a standard code which could be copied into most functions that deal with translations. I would develop the code at [[:Module:Version 2]] for [[:Module:Cycling race-WD]] in this Wiki and if you and Jérémy like the solution the code could be moved to the cycling module. 
: I had this problem already in my mind when developing the first use case for the lang module, because wiki x do not need to have the translations for twenty or more other wikis. The size of the code would get smaller by this. But at the moment not many wikis have a lang module and maybe some wikis will nether have one. Maybe this is a solution for that problem? By the way, we already have the code to deal with no lang module and different lang modules, because only few wikis will have the code for translating team names in their lang module. For example, frWiki does not need that, while mkwiki does. That means, we will get lots of different lang modules, depending on what the editors want for their wiki. If that is OK, I could start with coding soon. I guess, that could be done in one or two days. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 03:47, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
::Another solution for this user is to directly give us translations on this page. Or to prepare a line on AR Wiki and notify one of us. It is not a problem, and it is a process we already widely use not for questions of network but because it is more easy to users to have a few lines of code to translate instead having to do this on a page of 4000 lines, this also permits to discuss of adaptations (dates, time...). Another idea is I can update [[Wikidata:WikiProject Cycling/Translations of Module:Cycling race]]. Note that the algorithm will evolve. One day it will become possible to use directly modules hosted on Meta, instead of using a local copy, and in this idea we will surely use subpages. For the moment, it is more practical to centralize the code on one page because we have evolutions every weeks and around one new function each month.

== 501 expensive calls on lvwiki Paris-Nice 2017 ==

We exceeded 500 expensive calls on lvwiki [[:lv:2017. gada Parīze—Nica|Paris-Nice 2017]], so general classification is not showing. Optimizations are needed.

A day, we will be able to enter lists of participating riders, and [https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Prix_E3_2015#Liste_des_participants the table will be bigger].
:: I don´t think this will help. Our module is the only one with so many expensive function calls, because most of the time the Wikidata module is used.  	
:: Caching works only per lua table. That means only a team that is used more then once per table could reduce the number of expensive function calls. This way, maybe, the numbers would go down by 10. I´m sure rewriting old code would help a bit too. Maybe this way we could show another classification table (I think a classification table has around 20 expensive function calls). But that will not help with this race. Have you thought about using a template for the team list? Maybe this way you could reduce the number enough to get all classification tables to work? --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 11:20, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

:::: The number is 0 after deleting all cycling race functions (in preview mode). You can see that at the bottom of the article in edit mode at "Parsētāja profilēšanas dati:". By the way, without listofteams, it is only 447 expensive calls. 50 is a lot. It seems as each team needs two expensive calls.

:::: It seems all wikis using this module have the same problem with this race. Maybe we have to give all Wikis the same advice? I have changed listofteams for the template solution at deWiki and written a text at [[:de:Portal Diskussion:Radsport]]. Templates needs a lot of work, different then Wikidata. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 03:37, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

Maybe there is a way. I have tried again what I did yesterday and it seems it works now. I will do that for frwiki now and see if the code has an error. I´m not sure if the classification tables would gain by this too, because a table with 10 riders has at least ten rider items and maybe 8 different team items, plus items for the jerseys. An option would be to show just 5 riders per table, because this way we would need only half of the expensive function calls per table. What I have seen so far, listofteams tables with lots of season articles would reduce the number of expensive function calls from 70 to 50, while tables with no season articles would not gain that much, maybe by 10. Maybe it would be enough to print all classification tables for Paris-Nice 2017, which has only 8 stages. We will never be able to print a list of all participating riders on the same article. Maybe there is a way to scroll through such a list and show this way maybe only 5 riders of ~200 riders each time, but I see no way to code such a scrolling function in lua. 

There is another way to reduce the number of expensive function calls: We have already reduces the expensive function calls by using  the lang module for the country names (calling an item is the expensive function call). We could do something like that for the jersey and calling one jersey less means one expensive function calls less. For Paris-Nice 2017 that would be ~30 less.  --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 09:55, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

: Code is at frWiki, but that doesn´t help with Paris-Nice 2017 at frWiki, because this article is not using listofteams. I will look for lua errors in frWiki and try to code the jersey solution. At least that should help frWiki. When I´m sure the new code has no errors, I will move the code to WDWiki too.  --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 10:21, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

:: I do not understand why each jersey need 2 expensive function calls, but this way frWiki is down to 460 by just adding three jerseys into the code (yellow, green and white). It seems the code is correct, therefore I´m moving the code to WDwiki. 
:: By the way, the change in listofteams should be applied to all the other functions too or we have some functions more or less twice in the code. This will be a lot of work for the future, I will not do that now. 
:: We should give that update to all those wikis that show this race. --[[User:Molarus|Molarus]] 11:48, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

== Mountains and youth classifications ==

Would it be very difficult to add the templates for the youth and mountain classifications? I think that there is already the point and teams classifications, these others one could also be added. [[Special:Contributions/185.141.223.184|185.141.223.184]] 12:04, 22 May 2017 (UTC)

:I believe it should be relatively easy to add those two, because the programming logic should be very similar for the mountains classification compared to points classification and for the young riders classification compared to the general classification. Without knowing the code myself, I think it should be only to "copy-paste" the code itself and then point to other labels and WD-properties. And I think that would be the place to start; to add Wikidata properties for them. Last week I added results for Tour of Norway 2017, and this week I will add for Tour des Fjords 2017, but obviously I was not able to add the results for mountains and young riders, as there is currently nowhere to add them. Also I want to add results for older editions of these and other Norwegian races, but I don't want to do that until these properties are in place, so I don't have to go back and go through them again later. Right now I have to consider if I want to add such results manually as standard wikitables in the Norwegian articles, and then remove it and waste a lot of work when the function is implementet later, or if I'll just leave it open with no data until the feature is there. I don't want either, and I believe that other people too are in the same situation as me.
:I love these templates that have been made in this project, and they are probably the sole reason why I started editing bicycle-related articles! But right now the features that I think are the most missed ones are these. First adding the properies, then implement the presentation of them. I understand that there may be little time these days as there are a lot of races going on now, but I believe that these features are the ones that should have the highest priority in the project right now, both because they seem to be quite important, but most of all because how I understand it they will require very little work. (If I were to try and do it I would probably waste several days just to understand how it works, while this should only take a matter of hours I belive, maybe less.)

I see that [[:en:Module:Cycling race]] is listed as an "adaptation", but I'm wondering if it is just a copy of an old version. Pasting the current Wikidata module into the enwiki module and previewing the page with the error makes the problem go away so I am tempted to just copy this module.

:Hi {{ping|Johnuniq}} (and {{ping|Repf72}}). [[:en:Module:Cycling race]] is just a local copy of the [[Module:Cycling race]] hosted here on Wikidata. Sometimes, you can go on it and for example add translations in English. For the programmation, it depends of Molarus, unfortunately, we have no news about him since the 9th May (and I am worry about this).

::The main goal is to make the update process faster. Some projects started to make their own adaption to the module, e.g. on dawiki, dewiki, nowiki, plwiki, ruwiki. If a bug gets fixed in the version here on Wikidata, it's cumbersome to update the module in these projects since a simple copy&paste is not possible. If we can convince these projects to only use the module version from Wikidata and to do their localisations in a submodule, we can safe a lot of time. If the localisation submodule is changed, it doesn't have to be copied to all other projects. That means, if a new language is added or in one language translations are improved, nothing has to be copied to the other projects. Another advantage would be that redundancies can be reduced. The word "country" does appear in six translation lists. Translators have to be aware that they have to store the translation six times.

== sorting teamroster (bis) ==
Because of the operations limit, the sorting algorithm are quite difficult to use for cycling races. As the order normally don't change all the time, I thought that the easiest way to solve the problem is to sort directly in the item the things we want to display. I bought an algorithm to sort following items:
*(alphabetically)
** Riders list in team item
** Teams list in calendar
*(chronologically)
** Victories list in team item
I think in the future, it would be feasible to automatize completelly this task and let a bot update periodically the concerned items. In between, you can just post me the items you want to be sorted, so that I start my script (it takes 10 s for me). 
Advantages: you can type the list of teams directly from the starting list without to care about the alphabetical order. Of course, it doesn't work for russian, but is still a beginning. 

I continue to develop new functions to help us to be faster. [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 20:48, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

== Can anyone do it? ==

1. Cycling race / teamroster --> make that when you click on the word "trainee / stagiaire" an article about the term was opened [[Q2328847]]
:Is currently displayed
::''Adrien Costa (1 Aug–31 Dec, stagiaire)''
:I suggest an option
::''Adrien Costa (1 Aug–31 Dec, [[Q2328847|stagiaire)]]''

2. Cycling race / listofwinners --> make the title "Composition (Roster)" similarly as the Cycling race / victories done "Victory."

3. Cycling race / infobox -> do in the "Winners" section, writing the command that the racer represents from the new line, the worm <code><nowiki><br></nowiki></code>. Most of the command names are long and they are written in two lines. And with <code><nowiki><br></nowiki></code> will be written on one line immediately under the surname of the rider
:Is currently displayed
::''Name of the rider (The long <br>name of the team)''
:I suggest an option
::''Name of the rider <br>(The long name of the team)''

4. Cycling race / infobox --> string "winners of the team classification"
The current version of the module when placed in the Ru-wiki for the specified parameter displays a link to the article about the team for the given year. We have no such articles and links are displayed in red.

Therefore, we are using the old version of the module - [[:ru:Модуль:Cycling race]]. She in such cases inserts a link to the main flock about the team. Can you do the same thing in the current version of the module?

::Hi {{ping|GAN}} For your issue #4, I made a little change for "ru", so please try again with current version of the module in Wikidata.
::For #3, I agree with you, but we have some teams with really long names and your proposal could add a third line showing in that cases something like that:
:::''Name of the rider <br>(The long really <br>long name of the team)''
::For #1, let me check and #2 it is not clear for me, so can you explain more about this issue and give some example. Regards --[[User:Repf72|Repf72]] ([[User talk:Repf72|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 01:32, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

*Hi {{ping|Repf72}}:
1. ''Cycling race/teamroster''<br>
Screenshot https://c.radikal.ru/c33/1801/d1/2ef69a059ac9.png
Now in all Wiki the word "stagiaire" is displayed as plain text, not a link. But in some Wiki (da / de / ru) there is an article about this value. You can make sure that in these Wiki the word "trainee" becomes a link. [[Q2328847]] - stagiaire 

2. ''Cycling race/listofwinners''<br>
Screenshot https://a.radikal.ru/a27/1801/cf/b0d7a3afbbbd.png
Showed the differences between the two tables in the screenshot. You can add the sorting of columns for "Cycling race/teamroster"

3. About very long command names is understandable.
You can write in which line of the module what you need to replace and what to do to the cycling teams from a new line. I'll try myself to make changes in ru-wiki and see.

== How should we organize the Hammer Series in WD? ==

The Hammer Series ({{Q|30103254}}) is a fairly new addition to the world of cycling, and I'm not completely sure how we should make the structure for these events. In 2017, the first season, there was only one single event, the Hammer Sportzone Limburg ({{Q|30108967}}), while this season there will be (at least) three different events at different locations: Hammer Stavanger ({{Q|30108970}}) 25–27 May, Hammer Sportzone Limburg ({{Q|47469096}}) 1–3 June and Hammer Zagreb ({{Q|47469097}}) 20–22 September (according to the UCI calendar), and the number of events per year will probably grow at least a bit. Some of these events had already an entity, but the single events were erronously labeled as just "Hammer Series 2017", and so on. I changed those yesterday to get it right.

But to get the numbering right, maybe we can't just add several events in one year? In that case, how should we make the structure? I have an idea that we treat the main Hammer Series entity as we treat for example the UCI Europe Tour enitity. Then there are one entity per season, like "Hammer Series 2017" and "Hammer Series 2018". Then the separate events around in different countries have one entity for a recurring sporting event, so there will be at least "Hammer Sportzone Limburg", "Hammer Stavanger" and "Hammer Zagreb". Then all those single events should be instance of either of these, and then they are part of both the season of UCI Europe Tour and the season of Hammer Series. Is this the best way to do it, or will it simply be a bit too much overkill? (The amount of work to add these extra entities is irrelevant, as it is just fun anyway.)

Also, will the fact that the Hammer Series only award prizes to whole teams and not single riders have any impact on the templates? I haven't tried to add anything yet, so this is just an open question if anybody can think of something that might cause a failure related to this.

* I suggest then do likewise the {{Q|1804506}}. It also consists of separate races. The difference is only in the duration of the race. In Mallorca these are one-day races, and on Hammer it's a multi-day race. — [[User:GAN|GAN]] ([[User talk:GAN|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 16:16, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

:: I looked at your suggestion and it was very similar to the idea that I was trying to explain, so I just went ahead and did it. The following entities were added: {{Q|47479341}}, {{Q|47479344}}, {{Q|47479346}}, {{Q|47479348}}, {{Q|47479350}}, and connections between existing entities were changed.

Good question, for me, Hammer Series are like the Belgian [[:fr:Topcompétition 2014|Topcompétition 2014]].

: Sorry for not answering in ages. Cycling is only a part-time hobby to me and outside of the season (of UCI-ranked races in Norway) I don't really spend much time around it. I had intended to write an article about Hammer Series in general, including a translation of the rules and stuff, and then maybe about the separate races, on Norwegian Wikipedia, but it never happened. It'll happen some day, but I have no idea when, but hopefully before next Hammer Stavanger. So I won't spend any time on adding data for templates until I have an article in the making.

: It also seems that Hammer Series this season didn't turn out as planned. According to [http://www.infrontsports.com/media/2898368/hammer-series_original_107184.pdf this PDF] there was supposed to be four races this year, with Stavanger, Limburg and Zagreb as mentioned before, and then Suzhou in China on 12–14 October. But since there is no information to be found about Zagreb, it has most likely been cancelled. Suzhou is also most likely not going to happen, because [https://www.hammerseries.com/en/news/hammer-series-expands-to-asia-with-hammer-hong-kong now we know] that on 14 October there will be a one-day Hammer Series race in Hong Kong as part of the {{Q|24907680}}. I would guess that they will try to make the Zagreb event happen next year, so I don't see any reason to do anything drastic with {{Q|47479350}} entity, but perhaps {{Q|47469097}} could be reused for the Hong Kong event this year, or we just leave it there as a cancelled event. I don't know what would be best to do with it yet. [[User:Bergenga|Bergenga]] ([[User talk:Bergenga|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:24, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

== Suggestions, code structure, UCI calendar ==
=== Introduction ===
Hello, I have already contributed often on this page, but I never tried to code in LUA. Now it is done. So I come with some questions and suggestions.

=== Suggestions ===
* {{check}} For the display of the victories, it is already possible for the championship to customize the name (to make it shorter). This function is introduced at line 193 and 194 of the code. Now, the continental championships don't have this option (which make their names long). Is it ok, if we introduce also this possibility for the continental championships? It means concretely add a "or Q22231118" at these lines.
* {{check}} On line 559, for the determination of the class of the race. It seems to me that the case where the class is defined first is missing. It is written:
<source lang="lua">if "Q"..d == class[i] then class_text = mw.wikibase.label('Q'..d) sortkey_class = class_sort['Q'..d] break end</source>
I think the case with "b" instead of "d" should be also present.

=== Structure ===
As I will mention afterwards, I tried to programmate an UCI calendar. Basically I reused almost unmodified a lots of functions from the function victories. These functions are local. So I have to redifine them a second time. I thought to make them global. However, I noticed that it doesn't work so well, because them I have to pass all the arguments (strangely to me, it seems that inside of a "parent" functions the local variables are transmitted to the "child" functions have direct access to all local variables). However many local functions make the code very long and difficult to maintain. In the same way, the function winner and the function fn_rider are very similar. What do you think? Can someone explain me more clearly the local/global concept in Module:Cycling race?
:Ok I understand now that it is too complicated. The code is long, it's so

=== UCI calendar ===
I made it possible to display the women UCI calendar from wikidata. You can see it on the French WP (for beta testing): [https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendrier_international_f%C3%A9minin_UCI_2018#Calendrier_des_%C3%A9preuves Calendar]. I put also the code on my user page. It is my first code with LUA, so it is clearly possible to improve it. I am waiting for your comments before to include the code in the module. Right now, I still see two issues:
* Some of the classes appears in bold (why?)
* If I try with the year 2015, I have a bug. Some exception management is surely missing.
* I have to add the end date for stage races.

'''The ID "" is unknown to the system. Please use a valid entity ID.'''

=== There are several proposals. ===
The idea is wonderful. 

In the currently displayed calendar, if there is no article about the race for a given year, then its name is simply printed without a link. In the "Victory" template, in this case, a link to the main article about the race is displayed. For Vicki in which there are only basic articles about races it is essential.

Do for the tables that output the final classification, the ability to change its title in the article. For example, instead of "Classification by points" you could display "Individual classification". This would also be useful for the Tour de France and the Giro d'Italia when the winner was determined by the amount of points, not by time.

— [[User:GAN|GAN]] ([[User talk:GAN|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 13:24, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
:Yes I suppose, we can make the thing more flexible. Step by step. Normally the link should be displayed exactly as for "victory" as I reused the functions. Let me know what you think about the Module structure. As it is a big code realized from different users, it can become quickly chaotic and impossible to maintain for others. That I don't want. For this reason, I prefer to discuss first before exporting my work. A bit of order in the code could be useful in my opinion. I would like to discuss about it.

== Sorting ==

In the two templates "Cycling race/teamroster" and "Cycling race/victories" for versions that do not use the "country" column (there is no Module:Cycling race/lang), and the flag is displayed before the racer, the sorting of the racers does not work correctly.

Racers sorted in two stages. First, inside the country (by the flag), and then already inside the country in alphabetical order. For example [[:pt:Predefinição:Cycling race/teamroster]] and [[:pt:Plantilla:Ficha de victorias por equipo de ciclismo]].
Can you fix it? — [[User:GAN|GAN]] ([[User talk:GAN|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 20:01, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
:It should be solved. The problem is that it will be then sorted with the first name. And it is difficult to know what is the name. My solution is to sort directly in the item the list of rider to avoid this issue (with a bot). So when you load, it is already in the correct order. [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:53, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

::Now sorting the racers inside the country is done correctly. As in the Ru-version, where the surname is first (we have the articles named in the format Surname, Name). So in other language versions where the name first stands. You just need to disable the primary sorting by country for this case. Sort in the element (that is, here in the Wikidata). Will there be any problems when switching the display of the text from Latin to Cyrillic? After all, one and the same letter can be in different parts in these alphabets. — [[User:GAN|GAN]] ([[User talk:GAN|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 19:40, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
:::Hi everybody, it is possible to sort riders by using properties {{P|734}} and {{P|735}}. It is the only one solution because we have riders that have three or four names and they can arrive from Spain, Asia or Scandinavia so very different cases. More over, items about family names and given names are translated (or will be) in different alphabet, so it is practical when we will have more different languages.

::::Gan, yes I see your point, but for latin writing, the name is second and therefore, it makes the sorting difficult. If the sorting, works well in cyrillic, I would say to sort manually in latin (with bot), and automatically (in the function) in cyrillic. {{P|734}} and {{P|735}} don't help really, because there are a lot of riders with several surname (you want to create all surname combination as elements) and several family names (same problem). In my opinion, it can be only realized with a property which doesn't call an element, like {{P|2561}}, so more flexible. [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 17:38, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
::::: {{Ping|Psemdel}} I looked again at what principle is the sorting if the country is indicated only by the flag. Initially, the riders in the table are located in the order they are entered in the Wikidata. <br> When you click on the up and down arrows next to the heading of the column, the country is sorted alphabetically from the beginning, and then the riders are sorted, regardless of how they are written. That is, there is no difference that first comes the Name or Surname, everything is considered as a single word and only the order of the letters relative to the used alphabet (Latin or Cyrillic) is taken into account. Accordingly, the question. You can disable sorting of countries for this case. So that when you click on the up and down arrows, you immediately sorted the riders? For this case, it was a good option. — [[User:GAN|GAN]] ([[User talk:GAN|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 17:11, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

== Jerseys ==

Hi everybody. We already list jerseys on [[Wikidata:WikiProject Cycling/Kit to translate/Jerseys]]. A similar way to fill items permits us to display informations about them in articles. I had a little idea today when I use {{P|1535}} to list races where we use them. There is no display in articles, it is just for us to have examples of their use. I give a basic example with {{Q|47945989}} and another with more details on {{Q|26919974}}. I prefer making a statement instead adding examples in descriptions, this permits users to have translations in their languages.

== Classification reference ==
I added an option for Cycling race/stageclassification, Cycling race/generalclassification, Cycling race/teamtimetrialclassification. If you set the second argument to 1, the references (Procyclingstats...) appears at the bottom right of the classification. I still have two open points:
* Maybe I should write "Reference: " before the links. Then this word has to be translated
* Maybe a <nowiki><ref></nowiki> would be better. 
What do you prefer?
[[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 20:28, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

::It is now:
; Tour de France 2016
{{#invoke:Cycling race|generalclassification|Q21155407|1}}
{{-}}
The variant at the bottom of each table in the form of "References: Site 1, Site 2, Site 3" seems more visual and convenient.
I would suggest the following:
:- Make it automatically displayed by default. This will not waste time editing existing articles using these templates. ''And keep the essence of this module - posted it in the article in advance and forgot. He will fill himself up through WD.''
:- Change the appearance of the display. Reduce the font size slightly and separate with a horizontal line. [https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctic_Race_of_Norway_2016#Classement_g%C3%A9n%C3%A9ral_final Like here.]
:- To add too most for "Cycling race/listofwinners" or it is not necessary

The variant of mapping through <nowiki><ref></nowiki> at chelation can be made through one additional argument.

And such a moment. In some multi-day races, the final results are posted on the page of the last stage. Accordingly, on one page of the WD, you need to specify two links for one site. At the moment, the module takes into account only the first one. For the above example, I just entered two different IDs for the cqranking - 21 stage and the final classification.

:Thank you, yes I also understood how to put a <nowiki><ref></nowiki>. I am waiting for the reaction on the French WP. For the by default, it seems that some members prefer sometimes to have direct access to official site than those database. So I think, I won't make it by default in the beginning.

I work further on other topics. For the women, there is always a problem in the palmares (list of winners) because their name change when they mary (so anachronogical name everywhere).

What is the point in two almost identical templates calendarcustom and calendar. The second (calendarcustom) due to the use of Q and the possibility of selecting the outgoing columns looks more preferable.

Therefore, there are a number of questions:

1. Can I make a calendarcustom entry in yellow on a yellow background like a calendar? To display simply the word "Calendar" or "Calendar + title of the page in Wikidata". And it is better to write the name of the "Calendar" directly in the article directly in the "listofwinners". After all, through Q, it seems to me to add faster and more conveniently

2. Digital parameters for displaying those or other columns in the "calendarcustom". How to include them. Can you give an example? I was only able to display only the column "No." through the number "1", although the figure indicates the number "2". But due to the fact that the races are arranged in the order of their addition to the Wikidata page, the sense in this column is lost.

:You can notice that first I wanted to delete this "custom" function, but afterwards remembered that I use it for some small competitions (Lotto cycling cup, but why not cyclo-cross for instance). However, I agree with you that the main function will be 90% of the cases. That's why I renamed it in "calendar", to make it easy. By adding other calendars, this rate could be 99%...
Answers:
* 1. {{Check}} Yes we can add the label of the item as title of the calendar. It is no problem. I do it next week-end. (edit: let's say this week ;) ) , note that the solution I found is maybe not ultra elegant. I hope we don't have problem with TableA...
* 2. Here it is [[Wikidata:WikiProject Cycling/Documentation/Calendarcustom]]. I didn't know that we can name the parameters, that's why it is one, two, three... We could sort by date, but would cost some operations, you can implement it if you want (it is almost there actually). I prefer to sort by date with my bot in the item.

== Classification : when a cyclist loss his place ==

Hi {{ping|Repf72}} (because you create functions about classifications) and all others. On the French Wikipedia, two users, Damonking and Toïlev speak about the case of cyclists that lost their place when for example they were guilty of doping. These particular cases are interesting and I just ask them few minutes ago they give me different examples (because the question can be complex, we can have different cases...). So I think we should discuss a little of these different cases, to see what is the best solution to enter the datas on Wikidata and make a good display on the different Wikipedias.

For my part, we have qualifiers like {{Q|22039296}} and a property {{P|2241}}, and we can make a statement obsolescent. We are also able to add references and for this type of cases it is a good thing. So we are perfectly able to enter such datas (another solution consists in writing a new classification). I am interested by your opinion, and also if you have different cases in your head. I am not able to code, only to give ideas, so for this, it will be interested to strike the line of the doped cyclist or giving it a grey color, display at the bottom of the table the cyclist loose its places for the reason XXX, and display the reference at the bottom of the articles, as we do for [[:fr:Drôme Classic 2018|Drôme Classic 2018]]. The first idea is to be able to display this type of cases, the second idea is to be able to display sources about that. But I also need your opinions. I add that if we are agree about the way to enter the datas for this, I will can update the documentation.

* I also wanted to discuss this situation. 

:I would suggest in such cases to specify a shorter word, for example, "not available", so as not to stretch the table along the width, and in the mark rk to indicate the true reason for the absence of the prize.

:{{Q|49390664}} Here I was trying to specify this for 3rd place. As a result, only the Wikidata icon without text is displayed in the table. Table -> [[:ru:Гран-при Триберг-им-Шварцвальда]]

:Also, in addition to the disqualification, the winner may be absent from the multi-day race at the canceled stage. Now, in this case, the TABLE  "Cycling race/listofstages" simply displays an empty space. Accordingly, it is impossible to understand why the winner is absent.

:The ref-link shown above as an example of [[:fr:Drôme Classic 2018]] is displayed only in the "Cycling race/infobox". And in the [[:fr:Drôme Classic]] "Cycling race/listofwinners", the ref-link does not exist, although the data for both these tables are taken from the same place.

::Hi everybody. For the case that the position must be void, I tried to make some trick with a fictitious rider to put instead of it a legend like "Declared desert", but other users that check integrity and consistency of Wikidata deleted it and the solution was to use 2 properties, for example see winner of: {{Q|655118}}, and I implemented that in the code of the module Cycling race some weeks ago to be used in functions p.listofwinners and p.infobox and currently you can see datafill at {{Q|20803359}} and displayed using p.listofwinners at [[:es:Vuelta a Colombia]] (see year 1974).

== <code><nowiki>{{Wikidata Infobox}}</nowiki></code> for Wikimedia Commons categories ==

Hi everybody. I discover yesterday [[:c:Template:Wikidata Infobox]] on Wikimedia Commons. It permits to add an infobox on different domains on Wikimedia Commons categories. To give an example, I add in on [[:c:Category:Jordi Warlop]]. I see different advantages :
* we had just to display <code><nowiki>{{Wikidata Infobox}}</nowiki></code> instead of <code><nowiki>{{fr|[[:fr:Jordi Warlop|Jordi Warlop]].}}</nowiki></code> that only works for FR Wiki, 
* if in your language you have an article, it is written Wikipedia and there is a link to your Wiki, this link exists when you put it to Wikidata, so it doesn't need additional work, 
* for the moment, it displays the photo, the description, the birth and death and autorities, in the future, we can imagine first the country (we already have it, so it will not need additional work),
* this infobox is translated in your language, it is very practical, 
* because we already have entered datas on Wikidata, easy categories are added, even if we can do better with {{P|734}}. 
So I propose we add this template when we found a category. The weather is bad this week, so I start since yesterday to add it.

== Non-ranking ==

Hi all. We're discussing how to build data items at the Olympics project with {{Q|Q24760634}} as our start point. One question has arisen about how to handle participants who end the competition without a ranking, so that would cover values such as {{Q|Q1229261}}, {{Q|Q1210380}}, {{Q|Q1210382}}, etc. How have you approached this concept in this module? We're looking at using {{Property|P793}} to show this alongside participant data. Any comments on that before we start using it?

* {{Ping|Sillyfolkboy}} You have entered the results in the wrong "values", so that the module could process them you need to use: {{P|P2321}} instead of {{P|P710}} and {{P|P1346}} instead of {{P|P4622}}.

**{{ping|GAN|MisterSynergy}} Ah, I see. We will have to match the Olympic data model to the cycling one to get this to work. This is a very important point to consider. My main aim is to create a general sports ontology that works ''across'' sports so Olympics-oriented data extraction is as easy as possible. My approach of using {{P|P710}} to keep general results is because it is a high level property that can apply to any sports competition. A cycling GC is pretty much the opposite of that. Presumably, the more sports-specific properties we use, the more complex the data model will become for anyone looking to extract data on multiple sports (for example, building a list of Olympic results by country). I will use {{P|2321}} on the cycling data items for consistency, but I'll try to consider the best generalised models for the other sports to keep things simple. Do you know of sports other than cycling which already have developed data models? Olympics models may have to link in with those too. Also, I'm still interested in the answer to my original question :) [[User:Sillyfolkboy|Sillyfolkboy]] ([[User talk:Sillyfolkboy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 14:17, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

== One cycling team - two elements ==

There is a cycling team {{Q|841014}} which {{P|527}} since 1985.
And there is a cycling team {{Q|12731637}} that existed from 2005 to 2011 and which does not have a list of {{P|527}}, but it is not referenced by the seasons that are on the list of Q841014

Similarly, several other French cycling teams met.

As a result, we have one element about the whole team as a whole. And the second element is about several years (not individual seasons) of this team, included in the first.

As a result, in the module-based templates, references to this cycling team for this period of time stop working - they turn black. I "artificially" with the help of articles-redirects in the Wiki will make the links displayed.

I now see this moment a little strange. I rely solely on the functionality of the module, because I do not know very well such subtleties of the history of cycling teams.

The situation when the team ceased to exist, and not its base appeared a new slightly different. (Example T-Mobile -> HTC) In this case, in Wiki or there is one article that includes all seasons. Or several articles about different periods of the team that do not overlap.

279== Infobox for races ==
Now we have an infobox for each edition of the races, I programmed in the "old" format (in French it is infobox v3), an infobox for the races, so all editions. It displays automatically the last winner, the link to the last edition of the race, an so on. It re-uses functions from Cycling race, so it is easy to port it in another language I think.
Still I have an open point, on WP:fr nobody gives its opinion, so I give it a try here.
* I would like to enter the category (class) of the race in wikidata. I was thinking of using P279, but sometimes it is used for "stage race" or "one day race", which I personnaly give in P31. Have someone an idea of a property where we could list the class of the races?

** May be {{P|P2308}} for 1WT, 1.1, 1.HC? Wikidata adds data to the article card. In Ru-wiki there is a [https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-wikidataInfoboxExport.js Gadget] for adding data from the article card to the Wikidata if the card contains Q values.

== Problem ==

This module is completely ridiculous. 
# There is way too much code duplication (example: the customization for enwiki to use miles requires changes in nine different sections of code
# It makes no sense to me to store the customizations for every wiki in every other wiki, rather than having every language fork the module slightly or have a language-specific config page containing general things like "WDlinkon = true"
# etc.
It's almost certainly not a good idea to solve whatever task this is trying to solve with a 300KB mammoth module.

:::When I started to code with this module, I add the same reaction. I wanted to centralize everything. Then I programmed the part for the display of the calendar which is similar to the display of victories. I wanted to use exactly the same functions (which would have been global). However, I noticed that it required "small" changes. Of course, we can add an "if" to consider those changes. The issue is that when there are too many "if" we get some error messages in wikipedia. I experienced it quickly. So it is a good idea, the realization is however more difficult than expected. Of course, if you can structure the code, we have nothing against it.

=== Teams in cards ===

Previously, we in the elements about the season of the team indicated the parameter {{P|361}}.

Recently for the season teams added a new parameter {{P|5138}}. The module does not support it. And if there is no separate article about the team season, the module will display the name as plain text (black color).

=== Claims still to move ===
There are still a lot of claims {{Property|P361}} which should be moved to {{Property|P5138}} as in all other types of sports, in items about cycling team seasons. A list to start with is [//query.wikidata.org/#SELECT%20%3Fitem%20%3FitemLabel%20%3Fparent%20%3FparentLabel%20%3Fsport%20%3FsportLabel%20WHERE%20%7B%0A%20%20%3Fitem%20wdt%3AP31%2Fwdt%3AP279%2a%20wd%3AQ1539532%3B%20wdt%3AP361%20%3Fparent%3B%20wdt%3AP641%20%3Fsport%20.%0A%20%20%3Fsport%20wdt%3AP279%2a%20wd%3AQ2215841%20.%0A%20%20SERVICE%20wikibase%3Alabel%20%7B%20bd%3AserviceParam%20wikibase%3Alanguage%20%27en%27%20%7D%0A%7D this query result], containing ~1800 statements (the query needs some further refinement, but there we have already a good overview). I would be able to do the move so that we end in a consistent state over all items again. I would need to apply for a bot task, but that should be doable; the code would be ready for immediate use.

However, this module needs to be adopted first, and deployed to all Wikis. After the recent overhaul of the code for performance gains, how long do you all think it would take to implement use of P5138 instead of P361, and get this out to all Wikis? —[[User:MisterSynergy|MisterSynergy]] ([[User talk:MisterSynergy|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 19:53, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

== Fuga Pinarello -> Fuga (Breakaway) ==

Hi Guys. I think that Fuga Pinarello ({{Q|27907715}}) used in the "Giro" to have a classification of longest "Breakaway" should be renamed at Wikidata and in the "Cycling race" Code simply as "Fuga" without commercial sponsors because same concept for a "Breakaway classification" is used in others races and it is important to keep estandarizad classifications and estandarizad properties at infobox not linked to an some specific sponsor. Besides if we keep "Fuga Pinarello" then would be valid to have "Magia Rosa Enel", "Maglia Bianca Eurospin" and so on... What do you think? And if you are agree, maybe we should ask a property for "Breakaway classification" for the Giro and for other races that use points for a breakaway.

== Translation kit for national cycling teams ==

;>> [[Wikidata:WikiProject Cycling/Kit to translate/National teams]]
In July last year I started a little project of my own to try to clean up the national teams, as there were many duplicates and many entities that were not properly linked. I found out that linking them from a translation kit page would probably be the best way to do it, and so that people can know where to find it too. So this doesn't directly affect the module and the templates, but I guess you will find it useful that I post this here. I had actually almost completed the list last year, but never really got around to finish it and publish it, but now I think it should be good enough. Obviously it may contain many errors, but that's why it better go public so that others can help fix it. It is created as language neutral as possible, and only the top description is written in English, with the possibility of translating to any language of choice.

I have added labels in both Norwegian Bokmål (my own language) and English (the default language of everything related to Wikimedia), but I don't know any other languages well enough to add labels. But you guys do the job for your own language. I have also been very specific about mentioning which gender the team is for. This is not because a little bit of gender equality couldn't hurt anybody, but because it removes a lot of ambiguity. Talking about a ''national team'' and talking about a ''men's national team'' may in some cases not be the same thing. That's why I would encourage everybody to supply the gender in the label, simply to increase the quality and integrity of the information. (I guess this may be a difference in culture between languages, as in Norwegian it is very obvious to mention the gender if there are teams of both genders.) In the list I have added the gender/age class WU (Women Under-23), which obviously isn't in use yet. But it was added to the UCI general regulations in 2017, which means that they probably plan to use the class in the future, and I don't see any reason not to include it here. (That's why I've specifically used ''men's U23'', not just ''U23'' in the English labels.)

I added the entity {{Q|54555994}} for juniors, since they participate in the World Championships, but I don't know if there is any need to add support for it in the templates. I also changed the labels on {{Q|23726798}} to include "elite", and made another entity, {{Q|54660600}}, that all three age classes are a sublcass of. This needs to be translated in several languages. The reason why I added elite was to better follow how the UCI define the classes, and to make it more obvious that the other classes are not any kind of sublcass of it.

I have noticed that on some teams there is {{P|1448}} defined, but only in French and sometimes in Spanish. Is there really any use at all with P1448 in national teams? When seen in Norwegian Wikipedia, all I see is the standard Norwegian name of the country anyway. Also stating an ''official name'' in a language that is quite inferior in the country seems a bit odd.

When making this list, I also did some edits on Commons, under [[:c:Category:National cycling teams|Category:National cycling teams]]. There I found out that for some odd reason all national teams were written in French. I know that French is the "world language" of cycling (and I'm not opposing it), but the naming guidelines for categories on Commons clearly state that if possible, category names should be in English. Exceptions include if there are proper names, official names, if there is no way of describing it in English, or if it is commonly know in a different language, but that is obviously not the case here, except for probably the countries where French is an official language. I have found some really awkward category names like "Vehicles of Équipe du Royaume-Uni féminine de cyclisme sur route in 2016", a name that both starts and ends in English and have a midlle part in French. I have so far only renamed a few of the categories, and only on the top level, but await doing any more in case it would turn out that the naming scheme I have used isn't correct. (I'm really confused about the United Kingdom/Great Britain/Britain/British teams. I know the difference between UK and GB, but I have no idea how it is used in sports.)

The list was initially created by looking at the ''Special:WhatLinksHere'' page for the basic national cycling team entities ([[Special:WhatLinksHere/Q23726798]], [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Q20738667]] and [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Q54555994]]), and I will probably take a look there again from time to time (a couple times per year?), but it would be nice if you add items there as soon as you create them. Only then can we avoid the risk of several people creating duplicates of the same thing. At the bottom of the page in "hidden code" is kind of a copy-paste template for adding the different classes, where you only have to add the Wikidata-ID of the entity.

I made this list for my own benefit, but I hope that you also can enjoy it and find it useful, and together we can make it even more complete. [[User:Bergenga|Bergenga]] ([[User talk:Bergenga|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 20:37, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
:For Commons, it is not me that made the name in French :). For Wikidata, as you probably noticed, I made a script to create and link all national team instances in a few seconds (normally without problem). I run it only for women team but it is clearly possible to do it for the other categories. For the label, I also face the problem that I don't speak all languages :). So I put only French and English right now. The use of official name is to avoid "People's Republic of China" and "Kingdom of the Netherlands", obviously in 99% of the case it is not needed. The list you did, I have it also (partially) for women team in Python [https://github.com/psemdel/CyclingInitBot/blob/master/nationTeamTable.py here], it is the teamTable[kk][4] items [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 10:29, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
::Yes, I saw that you had added a lot by script. It had some minor errors and there were quite some duplicates (Some elements already existed, and there was almost a complete duplicate set of seasons of "British women's".), but I think I fixed all of that. When I started this last year there was quite a lot that were not linked at all, and since many people had added in their own language, there were other duplicates that had only other languages. I even fixed a few of those duplicates a couple of weeks ago, but obviously things are more controlled and they are actually linked together when using the script, so that problem will be smaller. Even so, people might still want to add labels and descriptions in their own language, so it will be useful for them to see it in one page like I have made. And now they will know what countries/teams exist, which was almost impossible earlier without good technical knowledge. We can't really expect every single contributor to have programming experience.
::If you are going to run a similar script for adding more "men's" and "men's U23", here are some things that should be corrected:
::*Change ''Dane'' to ''Danish'' and ''Slovene'' to ''Slovenian'' (You have to use the demonym for adjective, not the demonym for people.)
::*Sweden does not end with d (<s>"Swedend"</s>)
::*The UCI code for Japan is ''JPN'', not ''JAP'' (In the script code I see that you say that they are IOC codes. It is anyway wrong to use IOC codes, because UCI codes are sometimes different. Or you could add IOC codes as {{P|984}}, but that would only be useful in years with Summer Olympics.)
::I believe that I fixed most of this on the elements created by your script, but I don't think that I changed JAP to JPN on seasons.
::Thanks for the explanation about official names! Then it makes sense, and I even think that it might come in handy in Norwegian in a few special cases.
::Also, I'm just curious: Why have the seasons been made back to 1990? Was there any special event or change in things back then, or is it just a random year to be sure to cover any "recent history"? [[User:Bergenga|Bergenga]] ([[User talk:Bergenga|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 20:11, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
:::That's an answer! Yes, there was a huge mistake by the brits. I hope there is no other like that, in fact it is just that I forgot a space, and when the script tested if it was already existing, it said "no" and so created "équipe deGrande-Bretagne...". I corrected right away of course. Yes, I have noticed your huge work on the topic, which is much appreciated. Of course, we don't expect all users to use Python. That's why I added the team with IOC code and an english name as I suppose most of the users will use english name to make the search. Thank you for the corrections, it will be considered (and you don't have to correct yourself, the s*** I make, I have to correct). Where do I find UCI codes (as you noticed I use IOC code)? Because of the possibility of such mistakes, I didn't want to add too many years at once. A script is good because, with it I can do automatically many things at once. It is bad, because I can do many things wrong at once. I started also in 1990, because many countries didn't exist before (ex-USSR). I will run the script for the men and U23 soon then. For years before 1990, it is also just one click. Just tell me what you need. The objective is to have soon all team we need, then we don't have to worry anymore. [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 21:17, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
::::Since it was almost a year ago I don't remember exactly how I got the UCI codes, but I think my main source was actually to look through the drop-down list of countries when filtering by country (Advanced Search) at [http://www.uci.ch/road/teams/ the road teams page]. Yes, it's a really silly and probably not very effective way to do it, but I just couldn't find anything else on the UCI website. I also added a few from [http://users.skynet.be/hermandw/if/ifcyc.html this page], and I beleive that there were one or two other sources, but they are no longer in my memory. I don't really recall how many UCI codes are different from IOC codes, but at some point I got to experience that expecting them to be the same was a bad idea.
::::Yes, 1990 seems like a obvious year for when some countries came into existense (formally, not literally). We also have countries that only existed for a shorter time, like Serbia and Montenegro (SCG), so with countries like that, one should find out what years they had a national team before multiple adding. I now see that your bot added female team for Serbia back to 1990. But did they actually have their own separate national team all the way back then? In 1990 there was still the old Yugoslavia ({{Q|83286}}). I haven't found any UCI code for that or for the following {{Q|838261}}. (I really don't know much about those countries at all, I've just been looking a bit around to find information. I have no idea if the Yugoslavian member states had separate national teams at the time.) I also believe that even "stable" countries may not have had a working national team every year up through the years. It may have been because of financial reasons or because there were not enough good riders. Once again, this is not something I know, but I kind of expect things to be like that in some special cases. And the reason why I mention it is that I think it's not a good idea to add national team seasons that only theoretically may have existed. For me there is no point in mass adding seasons just for adding them. The most important thing is to have one item that represent the team regardless of season, and then the rest can be added later. How many seasons you add is all up to you. [[User:Bergenga|Bergenga]] ([[User talk:Bergenga|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 14:33, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
::::: I get your point. Of course, there is a risk with mass-adding. However, I did it for many countries and many years in only a very short time.

== The module needs optimizations (July 2018 overhaul) ==

Hi all,

I am not particularly interested in cycling, but I can code in lua. We have some problems with this module at the Danish Wikipedia, because it uses so large amounts of CPU time and memory that pages often get script errors due to this. I have looked at the code. It seems to me that the primary problem is that it in many cases unnecessarily loads whole Wikidata entities. The function <code>mw.wikibase.getEntity</code> is  very expensive and uses lots of time and memory. In most cases you can get the needed information without loading the entity by using functions like <code>mw.wikibase.getLabelByLang</code> and <code>mw.wikibase.getBestStatements</code> and similar.

I plan to optimize the code to avoid loading entities where possible in the next week or so. If anyone have objections or other ideas I will take that into consideration.

I have replaced the function flag now as it works indepedent of the other parts of the module, and have a big impact on the run time. The new function have a much bigger internal table of flag images and IOC country codes than the old function, and for any table misses it will lookup the flag on Wikidata without loading the usual very big country entities. The new flag function is already live on dawiki, and I think the loading time of articles using the module feels much improved. I don't have any exact measurements for this though. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:23, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
:Thank you that you take time for the code. On my side, I was (1 month ago) trying to delete all "pcall", as suggested a programmer on French wikipedia. Goal is also to improve the speed.

:: {{Ping|Psemdel}} Hi. If you look at the HTML source code from the Wikipedia servers, you will at the bottom of the code find a summary of used resources, and also a timing profile listing the templates which used most time. When you preview a page you are editing you will get a table with used resources in the preview page. And finally when you preview pages or code using modules and templates in a sandbox with [[Special:TemplateSandbox]] you will also get a table with used resources in the preview page.

::::Ok, I merged your work with my work. Actually, it is partially the same idea. You also deleted all pcall. You also rewrote the function WPlink('team'), exactly as I did. So I definitely think we are in line. In my code, it is however possible to avoid the pcall in a general way. In your code, I have the impression that you have to create a new function for all properties (getThis, getThat). In terms of benchmarks (same as yours) the gain is huge :
::::* Cycling race original code: Lua time usage: 1.164, Lua memory usage: 20.19 MB
::::* Your code: Lua time usage: 0.690, Lua memory usage: 10.63 MB
::::* Your code and my code together: Lua time usage: 0.235, Lua memory usage: 2.38 MB!!!

As I thought it is not a problem to use a generic function. Zebulon wrote a function that test if the value exists:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
function getCascadedValue( t, v, ... )
	if v and type(t) == 'table' then
		return getCascadedValue( t[v], ... )
	elseif v then
		return nil
	else
		return t
	end
end
</syntaxhighlight>
Then the well-known fooA function becomes simply:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
function fooBestA (mode,ID,property,var)
	local best, snak, temprank
	best=  mw.wikibase.getBestStatements(ID, property)
	if best then
		if mode=="value" then 
			snak = getCascadedValue(best, var, 'mainsnak', 'datavalue', 'value')
		elseif mode=="amount" then
			snak = getCascadedValue(best, var, 'mainsnak', 'datavalue', 'value','amount')
		elseif mode=="snaktype" then
			snak = getCascadedValue(best, var, 'mainsnak','snaktype')
		elseif mode=='numeric-id' then
			local temp = getCascadedValue(best, var, 'mainsnak', 'datavalue', 'value', 'numeric-id')
			if temp  then snak = 'Q'..tostring(temp) else snak=nil end
		else 
			snak = getCascadedValue(best, var, 'mainsnak', 'datavalue', 'value', mode)	
		end
		temprank = getCascadedValue(best, var,'rank')
		return snak, temprank 	
	else
		return nil
	end
end
</syntaxhighlight>
Then your function getParentID becomes:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
fooBestA ('numeric-id',teamID,'P361',1)
</syntaxhighlight>
The function getOfficialName is actually a new way to write timeStartEnd, so no need for new functions everywhere. We will just adapt the old one.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local function getOfficialName(teamID, timeOfRace)
	local a, official_name=timeStartEnd_Best(teamID, 'P1448', 'text', timeOfRace)
	if a ==true then
		return official_name
	else 
		return mw.wikibase.getLabel(teamID) -- No official name, try label	
	end
end
</syntaxhighlight>
And so on. I will reduce the need for entity in my code. [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 12:11, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

I took a look at the proposed functions <code>getCascadedValue</code> and <code>fooBestA</code> above. I assume that they work, but I don't think there is a reason to use such a complicated general approach to testing if a value exists. It seems more logical to me to utilise that a value is known to be present if snaktype is 'value'. Besides my goal is to improve run time. I don't think using a function call for each level of tables do that (even if lua uses tail calls). I created function <code>getParentID</code> to avoid code duplication as the same thing was done in more than one place. I admit that it isn't the best code. In other places I test the value of snaktype, and <code>getParentID</code> should also do that. I will correct that before uploading the code here tomorrow morning. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:34, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

Function <code>getOfficialName</code> is needed because it handles the configuration in <code>translations.lang_priority</code>. Again I created it to avoid code duplication as this was handled in more than one place before. It uses <code>getStatementForTime</code> which I wrote to replace <code>timeStartEnd</code> as we need both until the conversion is complete. When everything is converted, the replaced functions can be removed and the module will be smaller than now. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:47, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

=== 3 bugfixes ===

Hi, I just fixed 3 issues which were all found by [[User:Hejsa]]:
# The tooltips with name of jersey in classification lists wasn't always in the local language. Reason: For jerseys found in table jerseys in function jersey in function new_classification, no Wikidata lookup was made if no localized name was in the table. Solution: Add Wikidata lookup, and remove use of English as table fallback lookup as mw.wikibase.getLabel will fallback to English anyway (besides no English names are in the table.)
# Infoboxes can show both start and end dates, and single dates at the same time (se [[:fr:Tour de France 2018]] for an example until it is fixed on frwiki). Besides single dates with precision of year is shown as 30. November of the previous year. Reason: no test in function p.infobox if alle three of {{P|P580}}, {{P|P582}} and {{P|P585}} is used, and no test of the precision of the values so "2018-00-00" was interpreted as 1 month and 1 day before "2018-01-01". Solution: Don't write single dates, if start and end dates are present. I did not fix the missing check of precision (will do so when the infobox code is rewritten for optimizations anyway).
# In lists of victories of a team sometimes no date of race was in the table (se [[:fr:Équipe cycliste Movistar#Victoires]] for an example untill it is fixed on frwiki). Reason: When function fn_date in function victory_main found a value of {{P|P585}} with precision year it had no date to present in the table, but didn't then look for values of {{P|P582}}. Solution: Check for {{P|P582}} first. Besides I droped check for {{P|P580}} as {{P|P580}} and {{P|P582}} are supposed to always be in pairs.

=== 3 more bug fixes ===

I have uploaded bug fixes again today:
# If {{P|582}} was with precision month or year, dates in the end month or end year wasn't considered to be in the time period. This was a bug from my optimization rewrite and it caused the team not to be shown for riders in the classification lists the last year they rode for a team. 
# In some cases only one of the jerseys was shown in classification lists if a rider had more than one. Also a bug from my rewrite.
# In calendar lists, I exchanged the test for {{P|585}} and {{P|580}}, so {{P|580}} is tested first. That way {{P|585}} in stage races with precision year doesn't disrupt the calendar.
Thanks to [[User:Hejsa]] for finding issue 1 and 3. Regarding stage races with all of {{P|580}}, {{P|582}}, {{P|585}} I think the best approach is make the code so it can handle it, as all 3 of them are arguably true. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 10:02, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

=== List of winners rewritten ===

Hi, I just uploaded a new module with p.listofwinners rewritten. Now lists of winners for a race is always made in less than 1 second. It is much faster than before because it doesn't load any entities, and because it only does the same thing once. The old code loaded the Wikidata entity for each year of the race 4 times in total (once to get the year, and 3 times to get each of number 1, 2 and 3 in the race). That was very costly in running time and number of expensive parser functions. It also for instance sorted the list of races once for each race it accessed, instead of just once when all races were accessed. Beware that the new code may run into a limit of max 400 accessed entities, even you don't load them, for races which are more than 100 years old. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 07:53, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

=== Code for formating of dates rewritten ===

Hi, I uploaded a new version of the module with function func_date rewritten. It is used to format dates in the local language, and had a big impact on the overall run time. I measured calendar lists (using <nowiki>{{Cycling race/calendar|WWT|2018}}</nowiki>) to be approx. 7% (150 ms) faster with that change alone. The problem with the old function was that it for each call loaded a language object for about 18 different languages and then formatted the date for each of these languages, before finally selecting one of the formatted dates. The new code will not load the language object on each call, and will only format the date for one language. I also removed the list of Polish month names in genitive from the code, as there is a format code to get them directly, and concatenated the calls if mw.language:formatDate was called more than once. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 09:58, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

=== Function p.listofstages rewritten ===

I have uploaded a new module today with p.listofstages rewritten. I have tested performance for a page showing the stages of Tour de France 2016 (exactly as in the unchanged usage example in the comment inside the code) twice. Before the test page used 198/500 expensive parser function, accessed 74/400 Wikidata entities, 2.1/10 seconds, and 16.1/50 MB. After the rewrite is uses 0/500 expensive parser function, accessed 36/400 Wikidata entities, 0.3/10 seconds, and 2.5/50 MB. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 06:49, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

Can someone break this column into two bars (if it is possible and not heavily loaded module)? In the first there will be only a flag, and in the second one is the driver himself. To be sorted by the rider.

In Ru-wiki, articles about people in most cases are named in the format "Surname, Name" (separated by commas. That is not "Enrico Battaglin", but "Battaglin, Enrico"). Accordingly, in the tables based on the module, they are displayed in the same form. Therefore sorting in ru-wiki at the moment by default is obtained by last name. — [[User:GAN|GAN]] ([[User talk:GAN|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 12:45, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

== Proposal: Move all translations and local configuration to [[Module:Cycling race/lang]] ==

Hi, I propose that all translations and configuration is moved to the submodule [[Module:Cycling race/lang]].
This will make the main module smaller and faster to load saving both time and memory resources, give less updates on Wikidata with less risc of edit conflicts, and it will also make it possible to load and parse the translation tables only once per page instead of once per <nowiki>{{#invoke:}}</nowiki> call, which will also save time when you for instance have several classification tables or other lists in one article.

I am willing to make the change if it has your support. Best regards, --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 05:23, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

:: It seems there was mostly support in the previous discussion, but for some reason it was not done. I imagine a system where you have something like this in the lang submodule:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
conf = {
   doSomething = true,
   doSomethingElse = false,
}
translations = {
   Stage = 'Etapa',
   Distance = 'Distancia',
   Winner = 'Ganador',
}
</syntaxhighlight>
:: and something like this in the main module:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
   if conf.doSomething then
       -- Do something here
   end
   local tableCell = '<td>' .. (translations.Stage or 'Stage') .. '</td>'
</syntaxhighlight>
:: That way you avoid doing any function calls, so I think it will be very fast. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 08:15, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
:: PS. We could even simplify the last line in the example to
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
   local tableCell = '<td>' .. translations.Stage .. '</td>'
</syntaxhighlight>

::: I agree. I think the translations and configurations should be structured so the things used by each template is grouped together as much as possible, so the local maintainers can more easily find what to translate and configure.

:::: This module "Module: Cycling race / lang" in addition to the support of translation, adds in the tables (lists) with the composition of the team, the results of the stages and the classification of the column in which the country that the racer represents is represented. This stretches the table, especially with long names (In Ru-wiki, post-Soviet racers have a long spelling of the name). Without this module, citizenship is indicated only by the flag. Therefore, the question. Will it be possible to take into account the choice of how to display the citizenship of the rider? — [[User:GAN|GAN]] ([[User talk:GAN|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 23:00, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

== References in infoboxes ==
Hi all, I am working on rewriting the infobox code to be much faster. It have taken longer to find a good design for the code than I thought at first, but I think I finally have a good solution but it is not finished yet. Infoboxes can take local values for all fields from arguments in the template, and make references to all results to show Wikidata's source for the information. But I cannot find any testcases for this. Can anyone give examples of races where the results are sourced on Wikidata, and of existing infoboxes which show the sources from Wikidata in references? And I would also like to have any examples of infoboxes with local values from the template, so I can test if these things are working.

== p.infobox rewritten but take care ==

Hello, I have rewritten p.infoboxes which makes infoboxes for races, in order to make it faster. Before my test page with 6 infoboxes used 4.3 seconds and 28 MB memory. With the new code it uses 0.4 seconds and 2.5 MB memory for the same content.

However a lot of code is moved around or rewritten, so it may contain new bugs. The infoboxes looks exactly as before in dawiki, but they may have changed in other wikis as the code contains a lot of wiki-dependent code which is hard for me to test. So please be careful when you use this code and test if it works for you. I will try to fix any bugs you report here.

{{Ping|Repf72}} The bug for national teams winning the team classification not in the infobox is solved.

The infobox for stages (p.stageinfobox) is not changed yet. I will do that next. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 16:03, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

== Listofstages - Conflict ==

{{ping|Psemdel|Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick|Hejsa|Douglasfugazi|GAN}} This huge effort to standardize our module Wikidata and also Wikipedias, needs adequate and complete datafilling. For stage-races, in many cases the information is provided by race organizers, but few races give the "icon" for stage profile to fulfill if one stage is {{Q|20646667}}, {{Q|20646670}}, {{Q|20680270}}, {{Q|20646668}}, but gives stage profile to set adequate profile and if someone have better information can set a profile that fits better, example changing {{Q|20680270}} for {{Q|20646670}}. For example in {{Q|55577797}} is clear that stages like {{Q|55577816}} or {{Q|55577824}} are famous {{Q|20646668}}, but some users like [[User:Vlaam]] simply change all profiles to {{Q|18131152}} starting an "edit war" due was not possible direct dialog. The opinions about this issue were only treated in a local context at frwiki [https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussion_Projet:Cyclisme#Mod%C3%A8le:Cycling_race/listofstages_et_type_d'%C3%A9tape at frwiki here]. Due many Wikipedias uses "module Cycling race" and it affects to all, I want to show this situation to all, inviting with respect [[User:Vlaam]] in order to try to have a consensus about this.

:Thank you to contact the project on the topic. I am not 100% sure, but I understand it this way:
* If it is not clear if a stage is flat/hilly.. "stage" should be used.
* If we know, then the correct item should be used.
:Vlaam has nothing against the fact to specify the type of stage (even though right now it is not very easy to see it). But it has to be correct. For instance {{Q|52540701}} is clearly flat [https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/4-jours-de-dunkerque/2018/stage-1 procyclingstats]. He wonders why you want it to be a hilly stage [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q52540701&oldid=676023333 oldid]?

The knowledge of the community should be add efforts so it implies to datafill adequate profile but Vlaam just eliminate profiles even in cases of races well known as all the stages of {{Q|55577797}} with no explanation. If these changes only (no stage icon at listofstages) affect the frwiki and frwiki's collaborators accept it, there would be no problem, but these changes affect everyone.[[User:Repf72|Repf72]] ([[User talk:Repf72|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 17:09, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

::::Even if sometimes I can't support Vlaam, I must recognize he has a knowledge about some points. I give the page [[Wikidata:WikiProject Cycling/Sourcing Wikidata]]. If for informations we can found them in databases, it can't be the case for other informations and we have an informations that are not ''trivial'', in these cases the user must add a source. It is a good solution for everybody, by adding a source you can permit to other users to verify where your informations come. By experience, it is sometimes very difficult to determine the profile of a race, especially when it occurs years ago. In some time, we should prefer just to write it is a stage if we have no more informations. Even a start and a finist town can be mistaken because we don't know exactly when the cyclists race. Even if we know the parcours, it can be difficult to make a difference between types of stages. The message if not especially for Repf72, it is for everybody, sometimes all is not black or white, and we don't see the things on the same mannear.

So to sum up: 
* If we don't know it is {{Q|18131152}} and there is no icon.
* If we know we gives {{Q|20646667}}, {{Q|20646670}}, {{Q|20680270}}, {{Q|20646668}} or whatever. Ideally with a source.
* If we disagree about the classification :a) we can discuss (I must be crazy to give such ideas), b) if no result from discussion a source is required. Waiting for it, what should be used? 
I must add that I really find this discussion right here really surrealist. [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] ([[User talk:Psemdel|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 08:01, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

:::The point is it is sometimes difficult to make a difference between type of stages. Repf72 comes from Colombia, and for him, it is possible he has different notions. To give and exemple, around me, all is flat, and correspond to plain stages. But when I rode at Boulogne-sur-Mer the last month, it was for me {{Q|20680270}} at least. The idea when we have a doubt is first to add a source. Then we can always consider it is possible to have a discussion. But I think there are no idiot questions. On Wikipedias, we also have a long tradition of wikidramas, dignified of The Young and The Restless, and we keep in French an expression called "pinailler pour une virgule". Finally, we should be positive with this discussion ==> it can be difficult to define the profile of a stage, and we can have different opinions about a stage. Having this discussion show our community is 1) alive (it is important) & 2) healthy.

:The stage races can have between 300 to 600 data and the best source will always be the official page of the race, but having to reference each data as a solution to the complaints of those who do not complete any data and only audit the result final, is an invitation to not collaborate more.
:It would be much more constructive to respect the work of who went to the official website, extracted the contents, prepared and filled the data and respect starts with contributing to the efforts already made with investigating the non-conforming data so that the race could be very well documented with the correct profile in case of disagreeing with the already completed, instead of without any justification remove it.
:One of the many advantages of the module, is not having to deal with the design of a page and these "contributions" that leave the listofstages as a puzzle with only the icon of "time trial" and the rest unbalanced, do not contribute much.
:Clearly those who document European careers from a distance can make mistakes, it would be quite beneficial to know the correct answer and not a simple "I'll erase what you did" up to you can bring me some reference.

{{ping|Psemdel|Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick|Hejsa|Douglasfugazi|GAN}} We have a new conflict for {{Q|47295700}} at {{Q|47295669}}. As we know it was a "plain stage" with a "finish at the top" very hard and that was decisive and won by {{Q|460872}}. So, what is the stage profile we should use to datafill with accuracy the {{P|31}} for that stage? Do we use {{Q|20646667}} [[File:Plainstage.svg]], {{Q|20646670}} [[File:Hillystage.svg]], {{Q|20680270}} [[File:Mediummountainstage.svg]] or {{Q|20646668}} [[File:Mountainstage.svg]]? According with someone it was a {{Q|20646667}} [[File:Plainstage.svg]] because here https://www.lavuelta.es/fr/parcours-general says "2 étapes de plaine avec une arrivée au sommet" but {{Q|20646667}} only consider first part of the stage and not the hard climb so any wikipedia unprepared reader (our clients) could think that {{Q|47295700}} was really plain and {{Q|460872}} won that stage because he could be a sprinter. Douglasfugazi and me changed the profile for {{Q|20680270}} and there were reversed. Instead of make an eternal discussion about what profile we should use, may be necessary review application of current icons, to see if they the best or if they are complete or see if it is necessary to define some new icon for "plain stage with a finish at the top" (some "plainstagefinishtop.svg", new wikidata element, include it the the code and so on). What do you think? Who can make a version of [[File:Mediummountainstage.svg]] if it is necessary create an icon for "plain stage with a finish at the top"? We should include more icons?.

== Global variables ==

[[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]] made an [[Special:Diff/724958600|edit]] with the summary "i remove the local, as I use it for infoboxes on WP:fr, maybe if someone can tell me how to access from outside to these lists (is there a "private" mode?)". Use of global variables is often considered bad practice for several reasons:
; 1. Pollution of global name space
Unexpexted global variables from other modules can give some very subtle and hard to find bugs. Examples:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua" line>
-- Example 1
local module1 = require("Module:Module 1") -- Module 1 defines a global variable foo
local module2 = require("Module:Module 2") -- Module 2 also defines a global variable foo

local someValue = module1.someFunction() -- Can give unexpected results because becuase global variable foo was changed in line 3
</syntaxhighlight>

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua" line>
-- Example 2
local module1 = require("Module:Module 1") -- Module 1 defines a global variable foo

local function func()
    local foo = getFoo()
    if foo ~= nil then -- Test for success
        --[[ ERROR! You always execute this code even if getFoo() returned nil, because
             then foo will refer to the global variable foo coming from module1 ]]
        doSomething(foo)
    end
end
</syntaxhighlight>
; 2. You can more easily find typos if you avoid globals
It can be hard find misspelled variables like <code>Foo</code> or <code>fo</code> instead of <code>foo</code> when every unknown identifier in Lua is considered a global variable. If you have no globals, you can catch uses of misspelled identifiers by a metatable for the table that contains all globals. The very simple module [[Module:No globals]] does exactly that, and it is therefore often included in other modules.
; 3. Access to local variables is much faster
Local variables are stored in virtual registers, while global variables are stored in the table <code>_G</code>. Therefore access to local variables is much faster than access to global variables. This is not an issue for code which is executed only once or a few times, but it can of significance for instance in loops. (That is also why you see code like this):
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
bar = "Hello"
local funcion foo()
    local bar = bar -- For faster access to bar
    -- Do something
end</syntaxhighlight>

; How best to access variables from other modules 
Ideally included modules should not define or change any variables, so all access should happen via the modules' return value.
; Example 1
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua" line>
-- This is module 1
local p = {}
p.hello = "Hello world"
return p
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua" line>
-- This is module 2
local module1 = require("Module:Module 1")
local hello = module1.hello
</syntaxhighlight>

; Example 2
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua" line>
-- This is module 1
local p = {}
local hello = "Hello world"
function p.getHello()
    return hello
end
return p
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua" line>
-- This is module 2
local module1 = require("Module:Module 1")
local hello = module1.getHello()
</syntaxhighlight>

That is why I have been changing global variables to local variables each time I have rewritten functions. I would like to complete this at some time and add <syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>require("Module:No globals")</syntaxhighlight>. --[[User:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]] ([[User talk:Dipsacus fullonum|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 09:43, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

:: {{Ping|Psemdel}} No, you don't declare anything in lua. Functions are simply values in lua, and are neither global or local. Only variables are local or global. You can assign function values to variables, use them as arguments to other functions etc. You most likely assigned a function to a local variable, and then tried to access the local variable outside of its scope, which by lua is interpreted as accessing a global variable.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local v1 = plus(2,2) -- plus isn't defined here so it is interpreted as global variable with value nil, giving an error because a function value was expected
local plus = function(a, b) return a+b end -- assignment of a function value to a local variable
local v2 = plus(2,2) -- plus is a local variabel here with a function value
</syntaxhighlight>

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local function plus(a,b) return a+b end --[[This is another way of writing an assignment of a function to a variable (called using syntactic sugar), but the meaning is the same as above. ]]

== Teamroster (partially) rewritten ==
Hello, I re-wrote Teamroster with the "principles" introduced from Dipsacus fullonum : no pcall, no entity. I haven't really changed the function in its functioning, only the syntax differs. The speed is not significantly improved to be honest, it is however easier to maintain the code now. On RU and MK wikipedia please benchmark the code first, the function seems to work differently on your WP. 

I also reintroduced the use of "official name" (p1448) for the name of the riders. We can introduce it also for the classification in 1 second. I made a test, it doesn't influence the ressources. But first, I need to know if it works correctly for RU and MK (as usually :D). 

[[user:Dipsacus fullonum|Dipsacus fullonum]], two questions/issues:
* If I use "datavalue" like that, I need first a test, and then it doesn't really work (seems to be always false)
<pre>
				for _, q in qualifiers(p527, v) do
					if q.snaktype == 'value' then 
						riderReason =q.datavalue.value.id
					end
				end
</pre>
If I write, it works:
<pre>
			for _, q in qualifiers(p527, v) do
					riderReason =q.value.id
				end
</pre>
I don't really get the difference between both. The id is in "datavalue" no?
* (edit: {{done}})Here you can help, at line 5419 we have
<pre>
pcall(function() riderTeam[i] = WPlink( changedTeam , 'team', changedTime ) end)
--riderTeam[i]  = getTeam(changedTeam, changedTime, v.qualifiers)
</pre>
So still, the old, ugly WPlink. I wanted to use getTeam (second line), but I don't quite understand how works the "q" argument. Can you make it works. Thanks! 

Otherwise, when we look at the main functions, only stageinfobox is still not rewritten. I let you do it as infobox-master and as it is not emergent(stage pages are any how not too full). So a huge progress already!

:[[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]], something is bronken on lvwiki, see [[:lv:Astana Team]]. <strike>Could be missing some sorting stuff (also needed as in ru/mk despite using Latin alphabet).</strike> --[[User:Papuass|Papuass]] ([[User talk:Papuass|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 17:16, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
::Removed "errortext" from line 5578 for now (in lvwiki module). It was too hard to track its usage to initialize it properly as it was returning nil. --[[User:Papuass|Papuass]] ([[User talk:Papuass|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 17:46, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::Sorry for the disagrement, it is difficult to evaluate if it works well on wiki where I don't understand the language. If there is still problem, don't hesitate. The goal is to have a module without any compromise.
For errortext, it is filled at line 5452. It is there to display the problems, otherwise the result is wrong and everybody think it is correct... I imagine that the problem comes from the difference between variable "i" and "index[i]". For all wikipedia it is the same, except for lv, ru and mk. Edit: I imagined well!

== Startlist ==
I wrote a function startlist :). I will work on my skript to fulfill it automatically (classification of prologue on one side and classification final on the other side).

: Hello, I see it only now. Thank you for the feedback. I made a test, it is because I filter the class with the function calendar. Here the races you inserted have no class and are therefore filtered. I don't know: was there any class at that time? If not, then we should insert a mode "no class".

== Stageinfobox and end of transition phase ==
Hi everyone, I am very proud today to announce that I cleaned the function stageinfobox. No more pcall, no more entity. With this change the old functions can be deleted. The present code has a single pcall, and almost no entity loading. Most of the sub-functions are now common to the main functions. Of course, it is still possible to improve the elegance of the code. For instance, stageinfobox is still not as beautiful as infobox. Nevertheless, it is clearly today a milestone, as no more major changes are needed from my point of view.

:Hi, [[User:Psemdel|Psemdel]]! Thank you for all your effort. I just updated the code to lvwiki and there is a bug in [[:lv:Katusha–Alpecin]] (but not in [[:lv:Team Dimension Data]]). --[[User:Papuass|Papuass]] ([[User talk:Papuass|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 13:56, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
