Nonsense data said to be imported from World Aquatics database

Hi, your bot imports nonsensical data about swimmers. Could you make it stop doing that (and ideally revert the wrong additions)?

Mormegil (talkcontribs)

Not interested? OK, I have removed those 1797 claims where the imported country for sports was different to the nationality. Not sure about the rest, I’ll leave those, they will probably mostly be correct.

Hi, I'm interested, just spread too thin :-(

Thanks for the cleanup! What can I do to prevent this?

The catalog was imported by User:Luca.favorido into Mix'n'match, so they would know why the country metadata is wrong.

I can delete the country for sport (P1532) metadata for the entire catalog. That should solve the specific issue from recurring. Do you think that's warranted?

Hello, I see, the error is surely mine.

The problem is only with some specific countries. I assumed that the 3 letters code was the ISO-3166-alpha-3 but I was wrong...

For example, CRO stands for Croatia, even if the standard code should be HRV. So, my assumption was the issue that caused the problems in the reconciliation between countries and Qids.

Yes, I suggest to delete the catalog metadata, or, if possible, only the nazionalità sportiva (P1532) column. Thanks.

Here we go again… I presume the nonsense data has still not been deleted from the catalog?

As I said, I'm sorry about it. If it's not possible to drop the country data from the catalog metadata, we could delete the catalog as a resolution and reimport it.

But I'm sorry @Mormegil, I don't have enough rights to do it.

I removed the country data for the catalog. If you have updated, correct country data, happy to add it again.
