Welcome to Wikidata, Vollis!

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.

Common Era calendar edit

Hi there, I noticed that you have made an incorrect merge of conflations at Common Era (Q208141) and common era calendar (Q110166296). These need to be separated because the article at la:Aera vulgaris covers the calendar before year 0 and after year 0. However, Common Era (Q208141) covers the calendar after year 0. The concept for before year 0 is before common era (Q13432996). If you are trying to force an interlanguage link between the articles, that can be done through the creation of redirects.

Hello From Hill To Shore. Yes, the problem was the interlanguage links between Wikipedia articles. I'm not sure what you mean by "redirects". Could you perhaps do it the way you think? If Q208141 is supposed to correspond to Q13432996 (ante Aeram Vulgarem) for the time from the year 1 onwards (there is no year 0), then the main label in Latin should be in the genitive case, I think ("aerae vulgaris"), because that’s the way to indicate it in a date (just as "ante aeram vulgarem" – capitalisation isn’t fixed as far as I can see) Vollis (talk) 05:27, 14 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
