Welcome to Wikidata, CameoJewel!

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! PKM

Problem with Mix'n'Match

edit

Thanks for helping with Wikidata - but please be careful using Mix-n-Match! The items you have been matching with "Museum of Modern Art work ID" are incorrect. You're matching an ID for a specific purse in the museum's collection to the generic Wikidata item for "handbag". That's not what we're looking for. WD items don't work like categories. Items in museum collections can only be matched to WD items about those specific objects (if we have them - often we don't). - PKM (talk) 23:46, 24 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

I had to undo a whole bunch of other edits where you matched wrong things. Please respond here and be more careful. Multichill (talk) 10:42, 2 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
I just undid another one on "covered beaker" - it was linked to a LACMA pair of covered beakers. Jane023 (talk) 16:09, 15 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Just wanted to hear your opinion

Should a confirmed entry on Know Your Meme automatically make a internet meme notable enough for an item?--Trade (talk) 00:53, 10 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
