Welcome to Wikidata, ChristianKl!

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.

connects with (P2789)

I see you have removed the constraints from this property. So, now we have no error reports for this. This is probably not such a good idea. Danrok (talk) 00:45, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

I removed them after having a discussion at the project chat about widening the scope so that the property can be used with any physical entity that connects to another physical entity. That means that the old constraints aren't relevant anymore. How do you think the new constraint should look like? ChristianKl (talk) 07:09, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

Property proposals

Hi ChristianKl. Today I found a few old property proposals that weren't transcluded in one of the pages at Wikidata:Property proposal, including several of yours (e.g. Wikidata:Property proposal/what3words address). It's unlikely people will comment on them if they are not transcluded. You might want to double check these and withdraw the ones that are no longer needed. --- Jura 08:13, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, I think I made them before fully understanding how the process works. ChristianKl (talk) 09:25, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

NP. In the meantime, the template attempts to generate an error message if the proposal isn't transcluded.

Invitation to participate in the WQT UI requirements elicitation online workshop

Dear ChristianKl,

I hope you are doing well,

We are a group of researchers from King’s College London working on developing WQT (Wikidata Quality Toolkit), which will support a diverse set of editors in curating and validating Wikidata content.

We are inviting you to participate in an online workshop aimed at understanding the requirements for designing effective and easy-to-use user interfaces (UI) for three tools within WQT that can support the daily activities of Wikidata editors: recommending items to edit based on their personal preferences, finding items that need better references, and generating entity schemas automatically for better item quality.

The main activity during this workshop will be UI mockup sketching. To facilitate this, we encourage you to attend the workshop using a tablet or laptop with PowerPoint installed or any other drawing tools you prefer. This will allow for a more interactive and productive session as we delve into the UI mockup sketching activities.

Participation is completely voluntary. You should only take part if you want to and choosing not to take part will not disadvantage you in any way. However, your cooperation will be valuable for the WQT design. Please note that all data and responses collected during the workshop will be used solely for the purpose of improving the WQT and understanding editor requirements. We will analyze the results in an anonymized form, ensuring your privacy is protected. Personal information will be kept confidential and will be deleted once it has served its purpose in this research.

The online workshop, which will be held on April 5th, should take no more than 3 hours.

If you agree to participate in this workshop, please either contact me at kholoud.alghamdi@kcl.ac.uk or use this form to register your interest https://forms.office.com/e/9mrE8rXZVg Then, I will contact you with all the instructions for the workshop.

For more information about my project, please read this page: https://king-s-knowledge-graph-lab.github.io/WikidataQualityToolkit/

If you have further questions or require more information, don't hesitate to contact me at the email address mentioned above.

Thank you for considering taking part in this project.

New property for deletion

Hello, I wanted to inform you that I've just nominated for deletion the property:P3717 that you created.

P.S. I'm contacting you here because in the top banner you're not providing any link for the "current talk page". Horcrux (talk) 11:14, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Film Museum (Q1922726)

Hello,

I'm sorry, I don't speak German or English (I use an automatic translation tool). You have blocked this version: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q1922726&diff=prev&oldid=2158802068

However, my modification was not "vandalism". I have explained it several times on the discussion page here: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Talk:Q1922726

Consequently, I do not understand your intervention. Do you have an explanation?

Thanks in advance 94.109.103.157 11:10, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

I don't make a judgement on the content. Edit-warring is not a way to solve disputes, so I see no need for you to edit the page directly. If you want to discuss with another editor on the page, it makes sense to ping them so that they see the message.

Registering an account is also generally helpful when it comes to have debates about content. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 11:31, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

It was your friend who introduced the error and repeats it every time I correct it.

The problem is that you are polluting the French version with text that is not correct, whether in its meaning or its respect for the French language. --94.108.15.76 14:38, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Moreover " l'ancien musée du cinéma de Bruxelles fusionne avec CINEMATEK" in French it doesn't mean anything! The Cinematheque established the Cinema Museum in 1962. In 2009, the Cinematheque decided to use the brand "Cinematek", but there was no change.

Possible mistake?

I think when you wrote "The main reason against it being used as a qualifier" here, you may have mean to say "The main reason against it being used as a main statement property", or equivalently, "The main reason for it being used solely as a qualifier". Cheers. Swpb (talk) 13:57, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Yes, thanks I corrected it. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 09:28, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Request

Hello ChristianKl: I am making this request because I don't know which is the corresponding sector, I am not familiar with the boards. But I wanted to ask if you can delete my user page, so that it can be automatically linked to my global user page from Meta Wiki. Best regards. —Aopou {discusión} 21:22, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Done. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 23:10, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in research exploring Wikidata editors' experience of content gaps

Dear ChristianKl,

I hope this message finds you well!

We are researchers at King's College London investigating how content gaps arise and can be measured in Wikidata. Currently we have explored existing research papers to identify several categories of gaps. However, we have noted a lack of consideration of editors’ experiences in this existing research and are keen to hear about editors’ views on and methods for identifying and addressing content gaps. While this topic has seen a lot of attention in Wikipedia, we believe Wikidata presents unique challenges and content which warrant further investigation.

We are reaching out as we understand you have previously taken part in a research study with our colleague Kholoud and thought as an active and experienced editor, you may be able to share your experiences with us. We would therefore like to invite you to participate in an interactive online workshop to explore this topic further.

This will consist of a 90 minute online call consisting of a group discussion and collaborative editing of a document (in Miro). We will ask you to rank gaps according to your familiarity and your opinion of their importance, give feedback on which types of metric might be most valuable to you as an editor and give some initial thoughts and potentially even sketches of how a content gap monitoring tool might look for Wikidata.

The main goal of the workshop is to understand your perspectives on how to measure and monitor content gaps as well as potentially identify further metrics or even to propose new methods to identify and quantify gaps in Wikidata.

Participation is completely voluntary. All personal data will be kept confidential in compliance with GDPR. If you are interest in taking part, you can find out more about the workshop from our participant information sheet. You can also read more about the research at our meta page.

You can sign-up to take part from our registration form.

The workshop will take place online using Microsoft Teams. We are hoping to host the workshop in the coming weeks, but if you would like to take part and are unavailable during the proposed times, we may be able to find an alternative time.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at anelia.kurteva@kcl.ac.uk and neal.t.reeves@kcl.ac.uk

Thank you for considering taking part in this workshop and supporting our research.

With kind regards, Celestialtoast (talk) 20:31, 28 September 2024 (UTC)

QS batch 238496

This batch has a lot of errors, and consequently, a lot of the edited items have warnings. I'm no expert, but I think you're using the constraint wrong. I think you should qualify with P5314, not with the identifier property itself. Are you planning to fix this? bdijkstra (overleg) 07:55, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

The batch is indeed wrong and I already tried to undo the batch. The problem is that the undo batch feature seems broken at the moment. I reported that at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Edit_groups#Server_Error_(500) and will undo the batch when the undo functionality works again. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 10:26, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

That could take a while. I think Wikidata would be better off if you repaired the batch another way. bdijkstra (overleg) 18:24, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

@Bdijkstra I did wait for Pintoch to repair it and now it's repaired and I undid the batch. The result is that now, not only the badge is undone but EditGroups works again which is the better result for Wikidata overall than if I would just have fixed the batch manually.

It's frequently the case on Wikidata that the most useful way to fix a problem requires going up a level and coordinating with other people. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 10:19, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Indeed that's better overall. Thanks! bdijkstra (overleg) 11:48, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Not sure if you've seen my pings...

Wikidata:Property proposal/most populous settlement. Swpb (talk) 23:09, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

Sorry for my late answer. I wrote my support for the current version in that post and set it to ready. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 15:21, 14 May 2025 (UTC)

Thanks! Swpb (talk) 15:54, 14 May 2025 (UTC)

Not working correctly

Hi ChristianKl. The pattern https://www.the-sports.org/t-spf in this property [1] is not currently working, see for example [2].

Can you check and fix it please? Thanks. Leonprimer (talk) 03:42, 22 March 2025 (UTC)

@Leonprimer I don't know enough about the website to fix it. Maybe, bring up the issue in the Project Chat? ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 15:22, 14 May 2025 (UTC)
