Hay's tools
A list of tools made by Hay Kranen, focused on Wikimedia, Wikidata, and Wikipedia projec
Hay's tools is a personal collection of Wikimedia-related utilities built by Hay Kranen, also known as Husky on Wikipedia. The tools address tasks such as querying Wikidata, entering structured data on Wikimedia Commons, translating terms, converting data formats, and searching or analyzing Wikipedia and Commons content. The collection separates maintained tools from experimental or unmaintained ones, and source code for the tools is hosted on GitHub, where issues can be reported.
The maintained set includes VizQuery for visual Wikidata querying, Wikidata Propbrowse for browsing properties, Depictor for adding structured data statements to Commons, Structured Search for searching Commons media, and Query Dashboard for Wikidata SPARQL statistics. Other tools include QIDQuery, QSML, Chantek, Tinklify, Wikidata Translate, Wikidata Reconcile, Dataknead, and Wikilope, covering query building, an HTTP API server, link transformation, translation, string reconciliation, data format conversion, and Wikipedia connection discovery. Experimental or unmaintained tools include PhotoCommons, MultiSearch, Wikidata Skim, and others. Pageview statistics for the tools are available as a chart and downloadable CSV files.
