Welcome to Wikidata, J.-H. Janßen!
Wikidata is a free knowledge base that you can edit! It can be read and edited by humans and machines alike and you can go to any item page now and add to this ever-growing database!
Need some help getting started? Here are some pages you can familiarize yourself with:
- Introduction – An introduction to the project.
- Wikidata tours – Interactive tutorials to show you how Wikidata works.
- Community portal – The portal for community members.
- User options – including the 'Babel' extension, to set your language preferences.
- Contents – The main help page for editing and using the site.
- Project chat – Discussions about the project.
- Tools – A collection of user-developed tools to allow for easier completion of some tasks.
Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask on Project chat. If you want to try out editing, you can use the sandbox to try. Once again, welcome, and I hope you quickly feel comfortable here, and become an active editor for Wikidata.
Best regards!
Merging edit
Hallo J.-H. Janßen,
When you merge items, you may want to use the merge.js gadget from help page about merging. It helps with merging, gives the option to always keep the lower number (which is older, so preferable in most cases) and removes the need to file a request on Wikidata:Requests for deletions.

Scottish geolocatable items edit
Please do not remove located in the administrative territorial entity (P131) values pointing to Scottish Council Areas, from Scottish geolocatable items, as you did here - diff. Scottish Councils are the extant administrative territorial entities in Scotland; Scottish civil parishes were abolished in 1975. All Scottish geolocatable items have a P131 pointer to the council area, and most tools for maintaining Scottish geolocatable items have a dependency on this sort of P131 value. It follows that removing such values is both wrong and disruptive. thx. --Tagishsimon (talk) 02:34, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, that was a mistake. I wasn't aware of this insignificance. --J.-H. Janßen (talk) 18:40, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
