Welcome to Wikidata, Thincat!

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.

Well, thank you though I don't know why I have been sent this since I first edited Wikidata early in 2013. Thincat (talk) 12:43, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Bothies edit

Hi again. I picked up on your message about bothies in my talk page. Having looked at the Wikipedia list you supplied a link to - and having now created this query on Wikidata it appears that there are 36 Uk bothies on Wikidata. With some patience - comparing the Wikidpedia list with the outcomes of the Wikidata query it should be easy to add new items, following a pattern such as this one for Corrour bothy. Then - when all are there and have coordinates, and hopefully photographs, creating a map should be straightforward. Let me know if you need more help!
