Welcome to Wikidata, הנדב הנכון!

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.

about merging different items edit

Hello, your merge [1] was wrong because by doing so you added many descriptions "disambiguation page" to an item which is used may times! and which is specifically defined as a given name item. And the hewiki page is a pure disambiguation, not an article about a given name.

Suggestion: please have a look at Salim (Q2214347) and Selim (Q788720). Both are disambiguation items and see if you can merge Salim (Q6529631) into one of them instead. I would do it myself, but i can not tell if סלים (s_lim) is usually spelled with "a" or with "e".

The other issue you should be aware of, is that in several cases it is better not to merge different items, but to simply move a link from A to B. This would not mix up different descriptions etc. For example, if you think it's better, you could move the enwiki link from Salim (Q18918119) to Salim (Q2214347) (but please do not merge these 2 items; note: name items on Wikidata do not need Wikipedia article links).

i hope this explanation helps. If not, please contact eg. Wikidata:WikiProject Names. Holger1959 (talk) 13:12, 3 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

מיזוג Slick (Q41473014) edit

אני לא בטוח שהמיזוג הזה הוא רעיון טוב הטווח הארוך. הפריט שאיחדת אליו הוא פירושונים של Slick אך כבר עכשיו יש בפירושונים העברי גם ערך שבלועזית הוא Selick ולטווח הארוך אני מניח שיהיו גם ערכים על אנשים עם שמות המשפחה (שבדקתי וקיימים במציאות) Salick, Salik, Slik, Selik וכד', כולם או חלקם. הייתה מזמן בעייה דומה בפירושונים העברי בוש, בין השאר. DGtal (talk) 07:31, 1 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

DGtal היי... כשמדובר על כתיב אחד שהוא הרבה יותר פופולרי מאחרים (שזה לדעתי המקרה כאן) הקישור אליו מועיל לקורא ואז אפשר אולי לקשר מהפירושונים באנגלית לצורות כתיב דומות הנדב הנכון (talk) 07:39, 1 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
האמת היא שקשה לדעת, לפחות בעברית. אם היו בפירושונים עשרות ערכים היה קל לבדוק. כרגע אין באמת מספיק ערכים למדגם משמעותי. מקסימום נפריד בעתיד. בברכה, DGtal (talk) 07:53, 1 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Cinema of Israel ID edit

Hi!

Out of curiosity - how did you find/add Cinema of Israel IDs? The website have different URL structure.

Thanks, -- (talk) 18:10, 22 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

hi :) אודי אורון in the site index http://www.cinemaofisrael.co.il/%D7%90%D7%99%D7%A0%D7%93%D7%A7%D7%A1/# you can see the movie id. User:WikiDataMovieDB might have a better way 18:18, 22 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Good morning,

How has it been collaboratively contributing to Wikipedia and its sister projects?

I would really appreciate your views on the Anyone for Everyone program.

Anyone for Everyone is a campaign to encourage and guide internet users to contribute more to Wikimedia projects. The campaign aims to encourage 19 actions/activities that anyone could do on Wikimedia projects (Commons, Wikidata, Wikibooks etc.) for the benefit of everyone. Can you help expand the list by adding bullet points?

Thanks for weaving the lines and letters that make information neutrally open to the world.

Translation request edit

Hello.

Can you translate and upload en:National Library of Azerbaijan, en:Baku State University and en:Science and technology in Azerbaijan in Hebrew Wikipedia?

They don't need to be long.

Yours sincerely, Matricatria (talk) 09:49, 8 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi :) I have translated the titles but translating full article is something I rarely do 14:35, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
Hello. Thank you for the Hebrew labels. If it is not impertinent of me, could you transfer my request to Hebrew Wikipedia, where users might be interested in creating them? Unfortunately, I live in Turkey under the Islamist dictatorship of Erdoğan, where Wikipedia is banned and blocked along with thousands of other websites. Thus it is off limits for us here.

Wrong merge edit

Hello הנדב הנכון! Please do not merge items instance of family name (Q101352) and Wikimedia disambiguation page (Q4167410), like Rottner (Q37574686) and Rottner (Q25491384): as explained in the documentation, they are separate items on Wikidata. Regards, Envlh (talk) 09:49, 8 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Merge request edit

Hello.

Can you merge the Wikidata page of Tel Harashim (Q26764329) with the Wikidata page of Tel Harashim (Q12058491)? They are about the same hill.

Can you merge the Wikidata page of Eden Harel (Q95667815) with the Wikidata page of Eden Harel (Q5336862)? They are about the same actress.

Yours sincerely, 31.200.18.161 05:16, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Done! It's a simple process just use this page for future duplicates https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:MergeItems 06:57, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the mergers and thank you for the recommendation.
Because I access the internet via my cell phone, some buttons are not visible on my screen and thus editing everything is not possible (my laptop is under repair).
Special:MergeItems is visible and I can indeed use it, but when it comes to changing photos, that is unfortunately not the case.
As a last request for the Wikidata page of Harashim (Q2890766), can you replace the photo File:זריחה 19-1-2013 1.JPG with the photo that actually shows the village File:תצלום אוירי מקורי של חרשים.jpg?
I created a category for Harashim in Wikimedia Commons, for these two photos. 31.200.18.161 08:11, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Ancient Roman names edit

Hi, I've noticed that you've sometimes added properties like "given name" to ancient Roman figures, but Roman citizens did not have such names, they had praenomina, nomen geniticulum and cognomina. When adding modern name values to these items it causes constraint violations. StarTrekker (talk) 01:31, 6 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Re:Gennadi Ginsburg edit

what exactly did you want to ask because I don't understand you right now? if you are talking about the editing I did, then I want to ask you: do you know about the differences between the Ukrainian and Russian alphabets? Бучач-Львів (talk) 13:31, 4 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Бучач-Львів I thought you meant "he is not Ukrainian" and not "the wording is not Ukrainian". Is it correct now? הנדב הנכון (talk) 13:42, 4 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
הנדב הנכון. No, please read carefully: I wrote іt'sn't Ukrainian, not he іsn't Ukrainian. --Бучач-Львів (talk) 08:25, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Monastery in WD edit

Hi. I have noticed you gave Q2385804 (educational institution) to have Q19691007 (institutional complex) as a subclass. However, not all complexes are institutional institutions, and probably their educational character will be provided by a proper P31 claim. This subclass asisgnment has broken a few automated listings, e.g., listing of schools, that now contains monasteries. Please could we discuss this issue? Thank you! Quelet (talk) 10:22, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Quelet Hi, I reverted this. I added it because according to the term in my language it is, but it's not completely equivalent to the English one, so I understand you point. Thnaks 12:24, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. But I did not ask you to revert it, but just to discuss it. I am pretty sure that a simple discussion about it would help everyone to better grasp language-dependent meanings. Quelet (talk) 13:27, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
