Welcome to Wikidata, Meghmollar2017!

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!

Capital letter or small letter?

@Meghmollar2017: Hi! I have visited many Wikidata items and noticed that in almost all cases short description starts with small letter (e.g. Harvard, Oxford, NASA). But you have reverted my edit on Notre Dame College. Would you please provide info regarding this issue? Thanks in advance. Cheers! GunnerMysterious (talk) 08:30, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

@GunnerMysterious: Thank you for your question. On Wikipedia, generally we follow this guideline. In case Wikidata has a distinguish policy, it will need further discussion with experienced users. Meghmollar2017 • Talk 09:06, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Call for participation in the interview study with Wikidata editors

Dear Meghmollar2017,

I hope you are doing good,

I am Kholoud, a researcher at the King’s College London, and I work on a project as part of my PhD research that develops a personalized recommendation system to suggest Wikidata items for the editors based on their interests and preferences. I am collaborating on this project with Elena Simperl and Miaojing Shi.

I would love to talk with you to know about your current ways to choose the items you work on in Wikidata and understand the factors that might influence such a decision. Your cooperation will give us valuable insights into building a recommender system that can help improve your editing experience.

Participation is completely voluntary. You have the option to withdraw at any time. Your data will be processed under the terms of UK data protection law (including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018). The information and data that you provide will remain confidential; it will only be stored on the password-protected computer of the researchers. We will use the results anonymized (?) to provide insights into the practices of the editors in item selection processes for editing and publish the results of the study to a research venue. If you decide to take part, we will ask you to sign a consent form, and you will be given a copy of this consent form to keep.

If you’re interested in participating and have 15-20 minutes to chat (I promise to keep the time!), please either contact me on kholoudsaa@gmail.com or use this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdmmFHaiB20nK14wrQJgfrA18PtmdagyeRib3xGtvzkdn3Lgw/viewform?usp=sf_link with your choice of the times that work for you.

I’ll follow up with you to figure out what method is the best way for us to connect.

Please contact me using the email mentioned above if you have any questions or require more information about this project.

Thank you for considering taking part in this research.

Regards

Kholoud

Fancy Nancy label in Bangla

Can you add the label in Bangla for Fancy Nancy? Also I set Sydney to the Max, Star vs. the Forces of Evil, and Tangled. Can you check those I added? 2600:1700:53F0:AD70:A9A2:A871:730C:2DAF 21:12, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

I added a few more, and they all came from bn:ডিজনি চ্যানেল (জাপান). Can you check that page too? 2600:1700:53F0:AD70:A9A2:A871:730C:2DAF 22:06, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Checked (And corrected where needed). Regards Meghmollar2017 • Talk 05:03, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

I forgot another one to check for the label in Bangla: Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure. However, I haven't seen Fancy Nancy changed yet, or the page in bn wiki I linked (bn:ডিজনি চ্যানেল (জাপান)). Also I forgot when changing the description for Descendants 3 that I got the year wrong (it was copied from Descendants 1). Can you fix it? 2600:1700:53F0:AD70:A9A2:A871:730C:2DAF 21:45, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

Checked. Regards. Meghmollar2017 • Talk 09:19, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

I found Nancy as "ন্যান্সি", but what would "Fancy" be? I couldn't get it from Google translate except literally. Also, what should Fun and Fancy Free be? 2600:1700:53F0:AD70:914D:97D:62C6:D6F0 02:20, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

Fancy would be transliterated as ফ্যান্সি, just like Nancy-ন্যান্সি। The letter "a" is transliterated as -্যা if it is আদ্যস্বর or opening sound. If "a" is in the middle, -ে is generally used. As for example: animated — অ্যানিমেটেড। Meghmollar2017 • Talk 10:04, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
