Welcome to Wikidata, EVula!

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!

Quick question edit

Hey EVula.  Just wondering... no objection to your RfConfirmed, since of course you're about as trustworthy as it gets, but I can't quite figure out what you weren't able to do at Mystery Land. The item wasn't semi-protected, you're not listed as tripping any edit filters, and there aren't any item-specific rights that we don't give to non-(auto)confirmed users. If you got an error message of some sort, I think that might have been a bug. Thoughts? — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 05:08, 17 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

I think I got confused by Wikidata's difference of format and any other wiki's; I interpreted the lack of an "Edit" tab at the top as a sign that I wasn't able to at all, and subsequently jumped to a confusion. (a confusion that didn't get clarified until after I'd gotten the flag, and then went "...oh. whoops." when I realized what was what) D'oh. So yeah, just a PEBKAC bug. :) EVula // talk // 15:39, 17 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
Hahaha okay. Yeah, we really need to make our UI more intuitive. Well, you would've gotten the bit along with autopatrolled regardless, so no worries. Anyways, happy editing! Always great to have someone who can add to the communal clue reserves. — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 16:46, 17 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
And I will get right on that clue adding once I have the time to really find a solid place to fit in here. :) EVula // talk // 16:52, 17 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
