Logo of Wikidata

Welcome to Wikidata, Mpaa!

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!

Merging items edit

Hallo Mpaa,

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.

Dexbot at Adrianne Wadewitz edit

Any ideas why Dexbot (talkcontribslogs) was making those odd changes to Q16438247? — Cirt (talk) 12:20, 2 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Saw you uposted the question to Dexbot. Guess it is sorted out now.--Mpaa (talk) 15:03, 2 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
No worries, thank you, — Cirt (talk) 18:08, 2 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

some help tools edit

Welcome Mpaa! You may add some help tools to user:Mpaa/common.js or (if you use the vector skin) to user:Mpaa/vector.js . Please see User:Rotsaert8000 (in Esperanto), Wikidata:Tools, and Wikidata:Tools/User scripts for candidates you may add. On the user:i18n-page you will see all WD gadget links. It takes time to see what fits most of your interests. Good luck! Please feel free to use the Wikidata Sandbox item: Wikidata Sandbox (Q4115189)      for your first steps adding some statements see Wikidata:List of properties. If you want to notify a user you may use {{ping|foo bar}} at any place on this wiki. Regards gangLeri לערי ריינהארט (talk) 14:34, 27 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
