quickpresets is a User script, that allows you to add common statements with only one click. It is meant to be customizable. You can configure it to present you the presets you use most often with as few clicks as possible.
Installation
editTo use this gadget add the following into in your common.js:
importScript( 'User:MichaelSchoenitzer/quickpresets.js' ); //Linkback: [[User:MichaelSchoenitzer/quickpresets.js]]
Configuration
editThe tool is configured by creating a js-page (for example quickpresets_settings.js) in your usernamespace and loading it from your common.js before the loading of quickpresets:
importScript( 'User:YourName/quickpresets_settings.js' ); importScript( 'User:MichaelSchoenitzer/quickpresets.js' );
You can start by copying the content of the default config (which shows presets for human (Q5) and software (Q7397)) and modify it as you wish.
The format of the configuration is like this:
quick_props = [
{
qid: 5, // Only apply this preset-block for items with instance of (P31) set to 5
name: "Human", // Label that should be shown for this group
defaults: [ // List all Preset for this group
{
name: "Gender",
pid: 21, // ID of the property that should be proposed
values: [ // values of the items that should be proposed for this pid
{name: "male", qid: 6581097},
{name: "femal", qid: 6581072},
{name: "intersexual", qid: 1097630},
//...
]
},
{
name: "Citizenship",
pid: 27,
values: [
{name: "USA", qid: 30},
{name: "Germany", qid: 183},
//...
]
},
]
},
// Next group of presets for another type of items comes here.
]
Tips & tricks:
- Do not add presets for too many different types since quickpresets will do a sparql-query for every type on every item!
- You can add presets for items without any instance of (P31) by adding a preset-group where the qid is
null
- You can add presets for items with any arbitrary instance of (P31) by adding a preset-group where the qid is
0
- The tool will not only work for items with instance of (P31) set to the specified value, but also for value that are a subclass of (P279) of it (incl. recursive applying).
- The NavelGazer tool can be helpful to identify properties that you use frequently, which may be good candidates for quickpresets.
- The
values
array can be empty (e.g. for properties that don't have common values, such as given name (P735)), but it must be present.

- Wikidata:Recoin ("Relative Completeness Indicator") — allows adding statements to an item, based on which statements are most commonly added to similar items.
