Welcome to Wikidata, Keith Edkins!

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.

Rio Do Peixe edit

Hello, Keith. It's about those items about rivers. Can you please normalize their English labels? Peixe River, Do Peixe River, Rio do Peixe River, any another? Thanks in advance for help. --Wolverène (talk) 08:17, 20 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Can you merge three items about humans?

Dear Keith, thank you! IPs have no permission for merging. 77.183.75.220 23:26, 19 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
The items within each pair have the same GND ID and the same VIAF ID. 77.183.75.220 23:29, 19 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. The other person made a mistake on Heinricus and redirected it to a different person. I restored it to be about "Heinricus Meurch", as which it had been created. 77.183.75.220 23:48, 19 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Capitalization of English descriptions edit

Hi, just to let you know, Help:Description#Capitalization says to begin descriptions with a lowercase letter, except if proper nouns are involved. So for instance "scientific journal" rather than "Scientific journal" (as in Publicação: Instituto de Micologia, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (Q124904727) for instance, which I just fixed here).
