Logo of Wikidata

Welcome to Wikidata, Smvlvtmrng!

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! --VIGNERON (talk) 09:38, 22 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Living people edit

Hi,

For information, you have been reverted on Megan Wacha (Q59259651) by @Megs:. On Wikidata, we try to be careful about personnal information, see this rule Wikidata:Living people, in particular the sentence « Almost any piece of data about a living person might be controversial; anything that's individually challenged or might be challenged should be supported by a reliable public source or may be subject to removal. »

I'm available if you have any remark or question.

Hi @VIGNERON: thanks for the info about Wikidata:Living people - it's extremely helpful in making conscientious and ethical decisions about what to include or exclude about living people. Much appreciated, --Smvlvtmrng (talk) 16:32, 22 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
