In June-July 2002 the KB created and configured this instance on Wikibase.cloud. Many of the steps we needed to take in the setup process were as to expected when working with fresh MediaWiki instances in general, and Wikidata in particular. However, some steps were not immediately logical, manifest, clearly documemented or simply beyond our (then) knowledge and experience. We created a '''[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:KB_Wikibase.cloud_Unboxing_Experience,_Netherlands_Wikibase_Knowlegde_Group,_22-07-2022.pdf presentation]''' in which we share experiences and first impressions of unboxing, setting up, configuring and tweaking '''our [https://kbtestwikibase.wikibase.cloud/wiki/Main_Page Wikibase.cloud test instance]'''. We also present solutions for most of the issues we encountered. | |||
Below is an overview of the most important issues we encountered. The numbering behind each issue refers to the slides in the presentation: | |||

* We succesfully created our test instance at https://kbtestwikibase.wikibase.cloud via a personal [https://www.wikibase.cloud/dashboard Wikibase.cloud dashboard] every user gets, [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Wikibase.cloud/Wikis as described here]. This went without any problems, as expected. | |||
* We would have liked to be able to [https://www.wikibase.cloud/wikis/create create another instance] from this dashboard, but currently there is a hard limit of [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T311121 one instance per account]. | |||
