// 1. API'S URL:
// 1a.Parts of the url:
wd = "https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?";
wp = "https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?"; // list of iso-code = ? ----------------<
aw = "action=wbgetentities" ; // rather wdpoint
aq = "action=query" ; // ?rather wppage
ts = "&sites=enwiki" ; // wd only&required. // list of wiki-code = ? --------------<
t = "&titles=" // target, wd|wp
i = "Dragon"; //item, wd|wp
// i_ht = "＊～米字鍵～" ; // wdpoint|wppage -- +few data
// i_hs = "＊～米字键～" ; // wdpoint: missing; wppage: redirect (confirmed)
// i_ht = "中國" ; // wdpoint|wppage -- +many data
// i_hs = "中国" ; // wdpoint: missing; wppage: redirect (idem)
l = "&languages=zh|zh-classical|zh-cn|zh-hans|zh-hant|zh-hk|zh-min-nan|zh-mo|zh-my|zh-sg|zh-tw|fr" ; // wdpoint only
ps = "&props=sitelinks|labels|aliases|descriptions" ; // wdpoint only
//sitelinks: all interwikis
//labels: title without _(tag), for l (languages) only
//aliases: label of redirect page
p = "&prop=extracts&exintro&explaintext&exsentences=10" ; // wppage only
r = "&redirects&converttitles" ; // wppage only
c = "&callback=?" ;// wd|wp
f = "&format=json" ;// wd|wp
//1b. Compose your url:
urlwd = wd+aw+ts+t+i+l+ps +c+f; // typical wd query
url = wp+aq +t+i +p+r+c+f; // typical wp query
// Examples print in console:
console.log("1. WD: "+urlwd);
console.log("2. WP: "+url);
/* translate *********************************************** */

console.log("1"+trad);
})
//return trad +"y2"+toto;
};

//1c. DOM injection:
//$("body").html('<a href="'+url+'">Link</a>.<br />'+ url); //publish the url.
// wd+i INconsistently provide variants.

var result = "<b>En :</b> <t>" + item + "</t> <b>⇒</b> " + extract;
$('#anchor1').append("<div>"+result+"</div>"); // append
});

// 2b. Single query (alternative code):

//var be = item
url_tpl = wp+aq+t+ item +p+r+c+f;
