::Yes, first thing I tried but it's not for specifying multiple properties to return but rather for returning multiple values of the given property. [[User:RedWolf|RedWolf]] ([[User talk:RedWolf|talk]]) 22:04, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

:::It seems that this module does not support this functionality – the diagram at [[Module:Wd#Positional arguments]] apparently says only one <code>property_id</code> argument is supported. The description you quoted from the documentation probably refers to using <code>properties</code>. [[User:Janhrach|Janhrach]] ([[User talk:Janhrach|talk]]) 13:29, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

== Retrieve foreign Wikipedia page title ==

I want to use the template to retrieve the foreign Wikipedia title of an article, given the local title. As an example: I have 'Eiffel Tower', and I want to retrieve the name '''Eiffelturm''' from the name of the corresponding page on de-wiki, according to the information available at the bottom of page [[d:Q243#sitelinks-wikipedia|Q243]].

I am new to the wikidata template, and I have discovered how to do some of what I need to do, for example: I see that <code><nowiki>{{wikidata|label|raw|page=Eiffel Tower}}</nowiki></code> gives me back {{kbd|{{wikidata|label|raw|page=Eiffel Tower}}}}. I see how to get various properties, like where it is located:

* <code><nowiki>{{wikidata|property|page=Eiffel Tower|P17}}</nowiki></code> ⟶ {{wikidata|property|page=Eiffel Tower|P17}}

But I don't see what the property name or id of the foreign wikipedia property is, so I can retrieve the German page title. What I want logically, I think, is something like this, maybe:

* <code><nowiki>{{wikidata|qualifier|page=Eiffel Tower|P99999|de}}</nowiki></code> ⟶ Eiffelturm

where {{kbd|P999999}} is an imaginary property number for 'Wikipedia language link' and {{kbd|de}} is the language code for the foreign Wikipedia containing the title I am looking for. But I can't find a property value for Wikipedia site link. There must be a property or something for the wikipedia names, but I can't find it. Maybe it's not a property, but something else?
