Crystal Pool:サイト情報
This site is an attempt to organize the structured data related to Warriors series with MediaWiki and Wikibase. The site is still constructing in progress. If you want to help to contribute, please request for an account.
Currently, this site provides unified language link information and structured character (or cat) information for Chinese Warriors Wiki, with the help of WikibaseClientLite. In the future, perhaps Wikis of other languages or other non-Wiki sites can also use Crystal Pool as a source of information.
If you have any problems using the site, please leave a message on User:CXuesong's talk page.
背景
Maintaining a Wiki site for Warriors series takes great efforts. When a new book comes out, contributors need to update the information for the new book, looking for editions in different languages, and make updates on different pages on Wiki. That's not the end of the story. They also need to update the current status, relations (kinship, apprenticeship, leadership), etc. for the characters (i.e. cats) in the series. Depending on the relationship a cat owns, contributors may need to update a number of pages. Note that there are around 4 new books come out in every year, so the bustle will come and go in almost every season. While it's fine for Wikis with a lot of active users, such update may become a burden for the rest.
With the hope of reducing the marginal cost for maintaining a Wiki, CXuesong started up Crystal Pool, a wiki dedicated to persisting the structured data, a database about Warriors series that everyone can edit.
どのようにして貢献できますか
まずは、Crystal Pool:Getting startedをご覧ください。それで、貢献のためにアカウントを作成のは必要です。
You can search for an existing item (e.g. a book/cat) in the search box. You can either search by entity name or the entity ID (something like Q621). On the item page, you can see the item's label (aka. name) and description in your native language, if available. Then a list of statements will be shown, describing the properties or relations this item owns.
You may contribute to this database by editing those labels and descriptions, or by improving the statements. For an accurate reference on which properties to use, see the project pages related to your item of interest. For example, see Crystal Pool:Books for guidance on how to improve book and edition items.
You may refer to the pages under Category:Concepts and conventions for general conventions used on this site.
For character entities, you can use Firestar (Q621) or Graystripe (Q714) as examples to immitate.

Query service
- Main article:Crystal Pool:SPARQL query service
As soon as the database is complete (to some extent), an RDF dump can be exported, and based on the dump, you can actually perform any query of your interest, in SPARQL query language. Imagine that you can find out who belongs to or used to belong to ThunderClan (Q627) by executing the following SPARQL query expression:
SELECT ?cat ?name ?gender WHERE {
?cat wdt:P3 wd:Q622; # should be fictional cat character
wdt:P76 wd:Q627. # should belong to ThunderClan
OPTIONAL {
?cat rdfs:label ?name.
FILTER(lang(?name) = "en")
}
OPTIONAL {
?cat wdt:P78 ?gender.
}
}
You may click on the "Open in SPARQL Query Service" button above to try out this query. The results might be like the follows:
| cat | name | gender |
|---|---|---|
| Firestar (Q621) | Firestar | male organism (Q678) |
| Lionheart (Q711) | Lionheart | male organism (Q678) |
| Tigerstar (Q712) | Tigerstar | male organism (Q678) |
| Bluestar (Q713) | Bluestar | female organism (Q679) |
| Graystripe (Q714) | Graystripe | male organism (Q678) |
| Whitestorm (Q715) | Whitestorm | male organism (Q678) |
| … |
You can also find out a cat's relation of any degree, while we only have to keep track of all the cats' father and mother on this wiki and that's all.
Based on the SPARQL query results, we can either use bots to update the Warriors Wiki pages automatically, or generate some LUA modules that allows you to pull all the information of a book or relations of a cat.
