Guidelines for Descriptions edit
Welcome on Wikidata! Thanks for adding the descriptions to Almagest (Q33059254). Just one small thing: descriptions should if possible start with a lower-case letter and should not end with a dot. Improved descriptions: [1]. See also: Help:Description, including the page for your language. Keep up the good work. --Pyfisch (talk) 19:00, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
- Ok @Pyfisch:, I have just modified those descriptions. Yours truly. Fernando de Gorocica (talk) 01:58, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Almost correct. A description should use normal spelling, if as is was within a sentence. That means the first word is often lowercase, but not if it always written written with a capital. For example "Konrad Zuse": "German inventor" would be a correct description because words for countries and languages are always written with a capital letter in English.

- Well @Pyfisch:, I'll take it into account. Thank you again. Fernando de Gorocica (talk) 07:49, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
