Elementary particle vs. fundamental particle

Hi, I see now that the two terms are used differently according to the ru and be and uk wikipedias. I think the item (Q43116) actually matches the ru (and be and uk) fundamental particle articles. They are structureless. I've changed those three wp links and merged the old "fundamental particle" item into Q43116 and renamed it accordingly in those three languages. The ru, be, and uk articles for elementary particle said it included protons for example so this does not match any existing wikidata item. If you think it is important then probably a new item is needed for particles that can't be split even though some of them have substructure (i.e. including baryons). DavRosen (talk) 00:22, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

I've now created a new item indivisible particle (Q28846113) (which has subclass elementary particle (Q43116)) and linked it to the three articles (in ruwiki, bewiki, ukwiki) that describe it. Perhaps some other wp language articles should also link to the new class instead of its subclass depending on the article content. DavRosen (talk) 14:31, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

Adding sources instead of repeating values

Locative

As you added statements about locative to languages, I thought you might want to comment on Wikidata:Property_proposal/locative.

Is Gallifrey a country

Hi,

I'm not sure that

< Second Doctor (Q2063885)   > country (P17) < Gallifrey (Q367221)   >

is correct. I understand the meaning but Gallifrey (Q367221) is not a country so it's very strange. Maybe

< Second Doctor (Q2063885)   > place of birth (P19) < Gallifrey (Q367221)   >

would be better (it's not exactly the same thing but at least it seems more correct). What do you think?

Cdlt, VIGNERON (talk) 18:21, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

VIGNERON, I'm not sure that

< Second Doctor (Q2063885)   > place of birth (P19) < Gallifrey (Q367221)   >

is correct. He never was born. It was the regeneration.Arbnos (talk) 18:30, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi,

True, I didn't think about that and I see that we already have

< The Doctor (Q34358)   > place of birth (P19) < Gallifrey (Q367221)   >

But should we really keep

< Second Doctor (Q2063885)   > country (P17) < Gallifrey (Q367221)   >

? Gallifrey (Q367221) is not a country (as far as I know, it's a planet and with a stretch it's may be seen as a « civilization » but not a sovereign state or a nation), moreover country (P17) shouldn't be use for beings (it's meant for places).

A different matter, I'm not sure about

< Clara Oswald (Q1765307)   > place of death (P20) < Gallifrey (Q367221)   >

(she died several times but I don't recall her dying on Gallifrey)

Гражданство Серебрякова

Здравствуйте. Хочу обратить Ваше внимание на то, что у Алексея Серебрякова нет гражданства Канады. Он на этом акцентировал внимание в том же интервью у Дудя. Это были его слова. При этом уточнив, что гражданство есть у его жены. Категория в Викиданных называется чётко — страна гражданства, а не ПМЖ, грин-карты и прочее. Спасибо за внимание.--Нинтендо (talk) 12:07, 3 March 2018 (UTC)

Orbiting universe

Hi,

Do you have a source for:

< Universe (Q1)   > parent astronomical body (P397) < multiverse (Q3327819)   >
instance of (P31) < hypothesis (Q41719)   >

I've heard hypotheses about the multiverse but nothing about universes orbiting.

Cdlt, VIGNERON (talk) 09:35, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

PS: I'm not sure about instance of (P31), wouldn't sourcing circumstances (P1480) be better?

• Hi VIGNERON, I haven't seen that in the sources either. Perhaps it came from the language section of Wikipedia on the language in which the property is named so that has made a thought in his language it is written in these sources is met.--Arbnos (talk) 13:36, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Ok, I removed it for now. Cdlt, VIGNERON (talk) 15:00, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Q59613571

Isn't Q59613571 the same as colorless (Q1396399)? Wostr (talk) 18:13, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

• Wostr, one of them is a quality, another optical phenomenon. Can I mix? Or not?--Arbnos (talk) 18:18, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
  • colorless (Q1396399) has already some uses with color (P462) and has subclass of (P279) color (Q1075). Also, color (Q1075) subclass of (P279) optical phenomenon (Q14506045) and instance of (P31) physical property (Q4373292) which subclass of (P279) property (Q937228) and then property (Q937228) subclass of (P279) quality (Q1207505). So to me, colorless (Q1396399) already has quality (Q1207505), although not directly as in Q59613571, but indirectly through color (Q1075), physical property (Q4373292) and property (Q937228).
    But, I see now that we also have colorlessness (Q11567495) and colourless (Q55690561), so maybe merging Q59613571 with one of these would be a better idea? Wostr (talk) 19:58, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
    • Wostr, combined with colorlessness (Q11567495).--Arbnos (talk) 20:44, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

Q62657882

Hi, I'm having problems with a few automatic tools caused by Global state (Q62657882) being treated as a non-fictional nation. The descriptions for state (polity) (Q7275) and sovereign state (Q3624078) says "organised community living under a system of government; either a sovereign state, constituent state, or federated state" and "political organization with a centralized independent government". I don't read Russian, so I can't read the sources, but I don't think Global state (Q62657882) has any form of constitution or a "centralized independent government".

Hi @Autom:, indeed, thank you for the question, changed to "potential state".--Arbnos (talk) 14:22, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

Number of planets in the solar system

Related to these edits, the statements should be deprecated ! it was not true that the solar system had those number of planets, it was believed that, and later proven wrong. This is the definition of « deprecated » for statement rank. The qualifier end time (P582) is also probably wrong − it’s still true now that the sources cited state that.
