Hi,
Saw mention of the Geo-coordinates feature being live on the IRC chat today.
Apologies if this is a dumb question:
How does one access and/or apply coordinates on Wikidata?
I would like to add these or figure out a way to create a pathway between
Wiki pages with coordinates and Wikidata. We use coordinates on most of our
event pages and thought it could be fun to create maps or something....
Plus one of the editors in our chapter geotags everything and is a heavy
Commons user so thought it would be fun for him too....
Also, saw some weird red Lua errors on this page.

We'll talk about the last quarter, what's coming up and have time for
discussion and questions. If there is a particular topic you'd like to
discuss or present please let me know.
Cheers

Greetings all,
Would anyone be willing to take a look at an extension I am developing and
give me some help figuring out what I am doing wrong?
I am eventually planning to add a DataType called wikidata-item that way my
copy of Wikibase doesn't have to re-invent the wheel for a ton of things.
Right now though I am really just trying to get a new DataType added to
Wikibase at all...
I think I have managed to get the DataType into Wikibase, but whenever I
got to use it I get the message "Handling of values for "wikidata-item"
data type is not yet supported."
The extension's page is:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WikibaseWikidataType
Repo at: https://github.com/zellfaze/wikidata-datatype
I've been working off the information available in Wikibase/docs/hooks.txt
and Wikibase/docs/datatypes.txt along with what I have been able to gleam
from the DataValues Validators, DataValues Interfaces, and DataValues
Common extensions. Documentation on how to go about this seems generally
pretty sparse.
Thank you,
Derric Atzrott
