Welcome to Wikidata, Fayenatic london!

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! Cycn

Merging items

Hallo Fayenatic london,

For merging items, you may want to use the merge.js gadget from help page about merging. It has an option "Request deletion for extra items on RfD" to automatically place a request to delete the emptied page. This way of nominating makes it a lot easier for the admins to process the requests.

Ah, thanks - I have now figured out where to find it! Will try it next time. Fayenatic london (talk) 22:37, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

@Cycn: I have re-worded the instructions there, and hope you find it an improvement. Fayenatic london (talk) 08:00, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

OK, that change seems to have been accepted and extended. Fayenatic london (talk) 12:58, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

Merging from Commons

@Cycn: I noticed that https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Avianca has many more interwiki links than are currently listed at Q8280711 (Category:Avianca) – is there a way to import them? Fayenatic london (talk) 12:58, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
