Hi,

You expect https://www.saint-ouen.fr to be matched to Q208889 because it contains a link to https://twitter.com/villesaintouen which is connected to Q208889? is that it?

[teolemon]

not even that (although it could be another interesting issue)
I just expected it to propose Twitter, Instagram and YouTube as suggested properties
Is that because it didn't detect a candidate match ? Is some regex done on the social urls within HTML ?

Back to your point, it could indeed be an idea, more pressant would be the fact that

is already on the item, so it could be leverage if the query is not too expensive

I actually planned this, but resolving any link on a website turned out to be slow

That is indeed, very annoying. Thanks for writing it down. I'll see what I can do

You can do this now

1. click Add a new statement
   
2. wait for the links to resolve
3. select the social media link that is missing
   
4. click Send to wikidata

Result: The statement will be added with a very accuarate source statement. 🎉

And how is it supposed to work atm? Because one of the problems I often ran into was: i go to the 'contact' page, and that specific page isn't linked on the wikidata item. But I don't want to link the contact page specifically to it, I just want to use it to extract statements.

I'm afraid I cannot offer a perfect solution since I cannot confidentally reduce that every page under the same domain represents the same item but here is a workaround for that specific problem:

Lets say this is the frontpage:

And this is your contact page:

You can append #wd:[wikidata id] to the URL in this case the url https://www.saint-ouen.fr/404.html#wd:Q208889:

This suffix causes the extension to always resolve to the specified item: now you can go ahead as described above.

[thibaultmol]

I see. (would it be possible to have this be a button in the sidebar instead?)
just a checkbox you can check like "Look at main domain"

(also: Facebook ID's don't seem to get extracted atm. )
