Motivation edit

This growing database of Cornish–English terms standardised by Akademi Kernewek's Place Names (Q115349858) will provide access to valuable data on Cornish-language translations for English-language place-names and their agreed spelling. I hope this will help improve the quantity and quality of the Cornish-language labels in Wikidata. Many other languages would also benefit, as they also use the Cornish spelling of place-names in Cornwall rather than the modern English language spelling.

In the future, please do not create items such as Q115350056, which are "properties" but represented in item form because they cannot be used as a property. RPI2026F1 (talk) 12:24, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Any suggestions? Llywelyn2000 (talk) 12:44, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid that's totally incomprehensible to me. What should we have done? Brwynog (talk) 13:50, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
