Welcome to Wikidata, Awinkler3!

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! --Epìdosis 08:45, 22 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Quellen edit

Hallo Awinkler, auch wenn Wikidata kein Lexikon ist, sind Quellen nicht nur von Vorteil, sondern dringend erwünscht:

erledigt. Awinkler3 (talk) 22:47, 14 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Radlobby Österreich edit

RADLOBBY Austria (Q15841440): the federation of all Austrian bicycle advocacy associations - ist ein Bundesverband vieler lokalen Vereine. Die eingetragene Mastodon-Adresse ist offenbar die des oberösterreichischen Landesvereins. Das passt nicht zusammen. - AStiasny (talk) 07:53, 15 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

danke für den Hinweis! Awinkler3 (talk) 08:51, 15 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Spätmittelalter edit

Hi, you might want to check the four IDs of museum-digital on Late Middle Ages (Q212976). The main label seems odd and any way I wouldn't expect a thesaurus on person to show up on an historical period. Thanks! --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 08:21, 7 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

-Thanks a lot for pointing this out! I've run an automated job that uploads data from the museum-digital BEACON file to Wikidata. In this case there is obviously an error in the museum-digital data. I'll be in touch with the team behind museum-digital and change the data accordingly. Might take a couple of days. Awinkler3 (talk) 08:24, 7 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Social media followers counts edit

Hey, I see that you've been doing imports of mastodon social media follower counts. Thanks for doing that. I used to do this for Twitter (before the API shut off) so I have some experience here. I'm wondering if you plan to do this on a regular (monthly?) basis? Generally the attitude towards this kind of data has been that we should update it if 1) the value has changed a lot or 2) the value is really stale. For twitter this was like a 10% increase or a year old. Would you be able to implement such a policy? BrokenSegue (talk) 02:41, 11 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello, thanks for getting in touch! Such a policy makes perfect sense and I will definitely implement it. I could run my script on a monthly basis and add the two conditions so that updates are done only for new accounts, old values or values that have changed significantly.

Danke edit

Hallo @Awinkler3, vielen Dank für den spannenden Workshop. Er war sehr informativ und hilfreich, auch wenn ich vieles schon kannte. Besonders Openrefine könnte das Zeug haben zu einer meiner Lieblingssoftwares zu werden ;). Am Ende hatte ich etwas technische Probleme und ich habe mich schließlich ohne Mikro in den einzelnen Zoomräumen verlaufen. Schöne Grüße Singlespeedfahrer (talk) 16:45, 19 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hallo! Entschuldige bitte die späte Antwort! Diese Nachricht ist leider etwas untergegangen. Besten Dank für die Teilnahme, ich hoffe, es war auch die ein oder andere Anregung dabei! Awinkler3 (talk) 21:09, 29 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hallo, ja waren viele Anregungen dabei :). Ich reichere gerade die Berliner Straßen mit Daten an, falls noch nicht vorhanden (PLZ, Ort, Kauperts, Koordinaten). Dabei kann ich jetzt openrefine nutzen dank dem Workshop (mit ein paar anderen Tools, z.B. Python, Nominatim). Beispiel Friedenshorster Straße: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q111257964&diff=2141064155&oldid=2056803734 Schöne Grüße Singlespeedfahrer (talk) 12:24, 30 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
