Welcome to Wikidata, Hans Haase!

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.

Merge edit

Hallo Hans Haase,
When you merge items, please use the Merge.js gadget. It helps you merging, nominating, gives the option to always keep the lower number (which is older, so preferable) and makes it a lot easier for the admins to process the requests.
If you don't have account, you may have to Create Account. With regards,--by Revi레비 at 12:09, 31 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

@-revi: Hello, I'm sorry, I read your msg today. I'm a little confused about it. Altering Items in WD I am looking for basics and howtos. I have skills and understanding in databases, but I am not familiar with WD. Is there a way how to understand it in a quick way? I still remember, I moved some articles into their new interwiki records. --Hans Haase (talk) 10:28, 9 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
Hi, apparently ping is not currently working - I saw you via Watchlist. If you want to know what is merging and how to merge, see Help:Merge. Also, introduction about WikiData is at Wikidata:Introduction. — revi^ 14:46, 10 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Q1766412; Q2700049 edit

saturation (chemistry) (Q1766412) is about Wikimedia disambiguation page (Q4167410), saturated compound (Q2700049) is about structural class of chemical entities (Q47154513). Please read statements in each items and help pages before merging different items into one. Wostr (talk) 10:12, 6 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Wostr these articles are the same topic, sometimes mentioning its opposide. The Vietnamese Wikipedia lists two artlces on saturated and unsaturated. All articles are linked each other in Wikidata, and the second Vietnamese article is liked to the German one. So we have a redundancy in the Vietnamese Wikipedia and nonsens in the German project, liked to a redundant. --Hans Haase (有问题吗) 11:56, 6 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Interwiki links are only an addition to the WD data; statements define items, not interwiki links added to the item. You can move interwiki links between items, but some WD items should exist even without interwiki links. saturated compound (Q2700049) is an important concept in chemical classification; in saturation (chemistry) (Q1766412) only disambiguation pages can be added (if there are links to pages that are not disambigs in saturation (chemistry) (Q1766412), then those links should be moved elsewhere). If one wiki has two articles about the same concepts then two items should exist, one with instance of (P31)Wikimedia duplicated page (Q17362920). I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but saturation (chemistry) (Q1766412) and saturated compound (Q2700049) are not about the same concepts and shouldn't be merged.
