Logo of Wikidata

Welcome to Wikidata, TorbjørnS!

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!

Article renamed edit

Hi TorbjørnS. Next time when you rename an article and create a disambiguation page, please simply change the name and then add the disambig link to the related item. Removing almost all interwikis like you did here is not how you should proceed. If you have further questions, do ask and I'll help! Trijnstel (talk) 17:43, 9 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, and I'm afraid I've screwed up again... Prince of Wales-Outer Kitchikan Census Area and Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area. I think I screwed up even more trying to fix my screw up. I think I get it now... but don't know how to fix it again. TorbjørnS (talk) 15:37, 23 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Liten forbokstav i beskrivelser edit

Hei, i standardiseringens navn, bruk gjerne liten forbokstav, bortsett fra når beskrivelsen begynner med et navn eller noe annet som alltid skrives med stor forbokstav selvfølgelig :) Forresten ser jeg at du ikke har en babelboks, denne er ganske lur å ha på Wikidata fordi den bestemmer hvilke språk du kan se og redigere etiketter og beskrivelser på. –Danmichaelo (talk) 03:17, 28 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Aha. Takk for tips. --TorbjørnS (talk) 04:45, 28 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Duplikat edit

  Thank you for your work in maintaining Wikidata. I have a small suggestion to improve your future work. If you notice that two items are duplicates, please merge them instead of blanking one of them as you did with the item Q27927381. External sites use Wikidata identifiers, so it is important that we preserve the chain of references. We do this by making one item a redirect for the other. In particular, item ids are intended to be a permanent identifier, so we never reuse them for another concept. See Help:Merge for more information on how to merge items, and consider installing the Merge Gadget. Thanks!  Bovlb (talk) 03:53, 9 March 2022 (UTC) --Bovlb (talk) 03:53, 9 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hey. I was never sure how to merge, and I was thinking a robot would fix the merging/deleting of an item. Thanks for fixing it. --TorbjørnS (talk) 19:40, 9 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
