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.

Château de Montsoreau edit

Bonjour,

Merci pour vos ajouts qui étaient très précieux, j'ai fait quelques corrections sur les détails qui n'allaient pas.

En effet, il y une subtilité concernant ce château, il y a deux concepts différents qu'il ne faut pas confondre derrière ce nom :

@VIGNERON: Bonjour, merci de vos corrections, en effet j'avais noté cette subtilité. Dans le doute, comme le bâtiment est en même temps un château de la Loire et un musée d'art contemporain, j'avais consulté la page du palais de Tokyo. Qu'en pensez-vous ?

Bonsoir,
Sur Wikidata (et parfois aussi sur Wikipédia d'ailleurs), on distingue un bâtiment de l'institution qui l'occupe. Cela facilite souvent le travail et c'est absolument nécessaire quand un bâtiment accueille plusieurs musées, en l'occurrence le bâtiment du palais de Tokyo (Palais de Tokyo (Q1535247)) abrite deux musées (le centre d'art contemporain du même nom : Palais de Tokyo (Q25395733) mais aussi le Musée d'art moderne de Paris (Q857276)). Il arrive parfois que le bâtiment et l'institution l'occupant soient confondus mais cela a tendance a causer des problèmes et des ambigüités (par exemple, est-ce que inception (P571) est la création du bâtiment - sa date de construction - ou bien la création de l'institution - sa date de fondation/inauguration).

מונסורו edit

Well, Hebrew has its nuances in such cases. The letter Nun Has two forms: one for word endings (ן) and one for other cases (נ). Since מונסורו is apparently a portmanteau, the name will be considered as a single word, and therefore we will use the form of נ. Although the translation of the article in this case was amazingly good for a non-Hebrew speaker, it's highly recommended to consult with a Hebrew speaker before publishing an article. Machine translation can have tons of problems, especially in Hebrew. Mbkv717 (talk) 21:16, 9 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Dear @Mbkv717:, thank you for the compliment. When I created this article, I had both in mind that in french language the "t" helps the "on" to be marked, as it is in "Mont-Saint-Michel" and that it was a transliteration and not a translation. Maybe we could add it as alias in wikidata? All my very best,--Philippe49730 (talk) 13:48, 10 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
If I understood correctly, you mean that you want to add מוןסורו as a nickname to the Wikidata item? If so, that form is absolutely incorrect, and I don't believe a Hebrew speaker will ever search by that form. Transliteration to Hebrew has a lot of challenges and difficulties, and unfortunately we mostly cannot have an optimal transliteration; For example we don't have a way in Hebrew to show the difference between French "o" and "eau" (both represented by "וֹ"), so we have to use compromises in many cases.
