Logo of Wikidata

Welcome to Wikidata, Maculosae tegmine lyncis!

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.

Please merge items edit

Hi,

Please merge items instead of moving links and have an empty item with no links.

Thank you

Hi, thanks for this - I have found out how, enabled the preference, and hopefully just successfully completed/mopped up my first merge, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 11:01, 13 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Q108866737 edit

Hi Maculosae tegmine lyncis, Just for your information, on the Q108866737 you created in October, you added a non-registered ResearchGate Id like "Eva-V-I-Gebauer-2076142073" but, in fact, in this case you have only to write the id "2076142073", it is only on registered author where we write, for example, "Ehud-Spanier" on the Q112231696 page. Have a lovely sunday. Best regards. Givet (talk) 07:30, 5 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Property proposal edit

Hello Maculosae tegmine lyncis, there are still some open questions in this proposal. Maybe you would like to take a look and comment on them? As properties go to the heart of our work here on Wikidata, we need to think them through thoroughly and not only invite feedback from the community, but also address and work with said feedback.

Iliad edit

Please do not merge editions with the main data item for the work. There can be multiple editions in each language, and each edition needs to be able to support the publication data specific to that edition. There are, in fact, multiple Greek editions of the Iliad.

For example, the particular Greek text housed at el.WS is the 1920 edition from Oxford University. --EncycloPetey (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, quite right, yes (and, given my user name, bit of an embarrassing one to have on my talk page); thank you for fixing, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 05:33, 24 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
