Logo of Wikidata Welcome to Wikidata, Palosirkka!

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! --Stryn (talk) 16:54, 8 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Merging items

edit

For merging items, you can try the following tool: Merge.js gadget. It makes it much easier to do, and easier for the admins to check and follow up your nominations. -Cycn (talk) 06:48, 4 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the suggestion. However I'm allergic to JavaScript. Palosirkka (talk) 12:02, 4 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
You don't have to use it, of cause, but the way you nominate now can be improved with it. If you check other nominations you can use those to improve your own nomination, even without using the gadget, considerably. It would make processing your nominations easier, so it would be appeciated if you take a look at it. -      - (Cycn/talk) 07:04, 31 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
Not wanting to use a .js is fine, but you could still merge items manually: Check the help page about merging if you want tips on that. -      - (Cycn/talk) 07:27, 9 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Deletion of empty items

edit

You mean all those pages to which I have added iw are now empty items and have to be manually deleted!? Why doesn't anything happen automatically on wikipedia? ;-) --Ivan Bajlo (talk) 17:57, 12 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

I'm afraid it's so. I guess people worry about automatically deleting useful stuff. Palosirkka (talk) 18:45, 12 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Wikidataa opettelemaan!

edit

Hei! Olisitko kiinnostunut osallistumaan Wikimedia Suomen järjestämään Wikidataan perehdyttävään projektiin. Pyydämme osallistujiksi wikipedistejä sekä organisaatioita, joiden kanssa opettelemme yhdessä, heidän aineistoillaan. Järjestämme lokakuun alussa Helsingissä työpajapäivän, jossa esitellään Wikidataa sekä suomeksi että englanniksi. Puhujat ja paikka varmistuvat vähitellen, päivämäärä on 2.10.2015. Valmistelemme myös online-opiskelupakettia suomeksi. Olisi hienoa saada mukaan Wikidataa aktiivisesti muokkaavia tilaisuuteen tai opastamaan/oppimaan online. Projektin työn alla olevat sivut ovat täällä: fi:Wikipedia:Wikiprojekti Avoin kulttuuridata hyötykäyttöön. Voit myös lähettää minulle sähköpostia käyttäjäsivuni kautta.

Toivottavasti tavataan!

Hei Susannaanas ja kiitos houkuttelevasta tarjouksesta! Valitettavasti maantieteen tyranniasta johtuen en pääse paikan päälle. Taidan kyllä vilkaista noita materiaaleja. Teette hienoa työtä, kiitos myös siitä ja oikein onnistunutta miittiä! Palosirkka (talk) 16:30, 14 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
Kiitos kannustuksesta! Toivottavasti tavataan seuraavassa tilaisuudessa! --Susannaanas (talk) 19:49, 19 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
