Logo of Wikidata

Welcome to Wikidata, Redaktor!

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.

Babel edit

Babel lets you view and edit more than one language on Wikidata. Just add e.g. {{#babel:de-N|en-3|es-1|fr-2|nl-3|it-4|da-0}} to your user page. With the same language codes you can add links to your userpage on Wikipedia e.g. de:User:User123. --Tobias1984 (talk) 14:41, 25 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Merging items edit

Hallo Redaktor,
When you (want to) merge items, you may want to use the merge.js gadget from help page about merging. It helps with merging and removes the need to file a request on Wikidata:Requests for deletions.

Yiddish articles and template edit

Hello.

Can you translate and upload en:Template:Lang-az, en:.az and en:Azerbaijani Wikipedia in Yiddish Wikipedia? They should be short. I am interested in languages that are not spoken by many millions and/or are ancient and are not widespread on the internet.

Yours sincerely, Karalainza (talk) 21:56, 26 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hello.
Can you also create the templates and articles inside Yiddish Wikipedia, e.g. like yi:מוסטער:שפראך-hy?
