Logo of Wikidata

Welcome to Wikidata, Btqfshfst!

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 16:28, 19 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Reverting edit

Hello Btqfshfst, I'm not sure if I misunderstood you but it seems to me that you don't know how to revert somebody's edit (sorry if I explain something to you you already know): in the edit history you see something like this:

(cur | prev) xx:x, 7 February xxxx‎ xxxxx (talk | contribs)‎ . . (73,940 bytes) +1,161‎ . . (‎xxxx) (undo | thank) (restore)

I emphasized the undo-button to make it more visible. If you klick on it, you will first see what your edit will remove and what is going to be added. You need to confirm that you want to revert this edit and you can add a little message why you think that this edit is not helpful. You can also use restore (the last button) if you want to reset the page to this version. You will be asked if you really want to restore this version. If you revert somebody (the undo-button) this person will get a message. If you restore the version, there won't be any message to anybody. You can try it out with my message at this page or you can try it out at Wikidata Sandbox (Q4115189) (I added two edits there, so you can play around with the undo/restore buttons and my edits without affecting another person - and I'm fine with it :) ).

Btw: of course it is much better to use the talk page to discuss things, as you did, but the revert-button can be quite handy, e.g. for removing vandalism. Just ask me if you have any other question.

I'll have your talk page on my watch list so you can answer right here. You can also ping me - I will get a notification then. - Valentina.Anitnelav (talk) 20:38, 27 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
