✨ NAME ✨

Catmandu::Fix::wd_language — okay bestie, this is a Perl manual page, section 3pm, and it's here to do one (1) very specific lil job: limiting the string values in a Wikidata entity record to just one language you picked. 💅

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 0.06 — yeah she's a vintage queen, we stan a stable release. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea, fr fr. This Catmandu::Fix modifies a Wikidata entity record — specifically the kind of record that got imported by Catmandu::Importer::Wikidata.

What does "modifies" mean here? It deletes every language-tagged string it can find inside:

  • aliases
  • labels
  • descriptions

...except for the one selected language you asked for. Everything else? Gone. Deleted. Not invited to the party. 💀

And because one glow-up deserves another, the strings that do survive are also simplified — exactly the same way that happens with Catmandu::Fix::wd_simple_strings. So it's giving cleanup plus simplification, two birds, one iconic stone. 🪄

ngl this is the "only keep the language I actually care about" fix and it is extremely committed to that bit. No survivors, no exceptions, just the language you chose.
