Logo of Wikidata Welcome to Wikidata, Dobroknig!

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.

Babel

edit

Babel lets you view and edit more than one language on Wikidata. Just add e.g. {{#babel:de-N|en-3|es-1|fr-2|nl-3|it-4|da-0}} to your user page. With the same language codes you can add links to your userpage on Wikipedia e.g. de:User:User123. --Tobias1984 (talk) 20:12, 24 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

2 articles on ttwiki?

edit

We have a question for you, at Wikidata:Project chat#ttwiki duplicate Barack Obama. (We do not understand tt.wikipedia.org very well.) --Closeapple (talk) 15:32, 17 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Closeapple, According to internal rules ttwiki , since 2013 use of Cyrillics and a Latin alphabets is permited, but duplicates of articles are forbidden, but all articles written till 2013 remain, even if they are written in a Latin and cyrillics alphabets. Article about Barack Obama has been initially written in a Latin per 2009, 6 months later new article is written (not a copy) on cyrillics. At that time it was authorized.--Dobroknig (talk) 09:55, 31 July 2014 (UTC)Reply
