Welcome to Wikidata, Vysotsky!

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.

Merging

Instance of (P31) = Wikimedia duplicated page (Q17362920) to the redundant item. Vysotsky (talk) 11:16, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Incorrect change: twee Machtelds, maar zeven eeuwen verschil

Hello Vysotsky,

Ik zag net deze bewerking van jouw hand (in juli 2019, dat wel), waarbij je het Wikidata-item over de edelvrouw Machteld van Foreest koppelt aan het nieuw aangemaakte artikel Machteld van Foreest. Hierdoor ontstond er een wat rare situatie, aangezien de schaakster niet actief was in de 13e eeuw. In september is dat min of meer rechtgetrokken, nadat deze geboorte- en overlijdensdatum werd verwijderd. Voor de edelvrouw is na jouw ontkoppeling een nieuw item aangemaakt, waarin deze gegevens weer ingevoerd moesten worden.

Ik merkte dit op omdat FakirNL net een bewerking van mij ongedaan maakte. Tijd om de beide items nog eens goed naast elkaar te leggen. Met vriendelijke groet, RonnieV (talk) 18:14, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

I see it now. It must have been because I didn't have much experience with Wikidata at the time. Nonetheless, it's a crying shame. Luckily, most obvious mistakes were corrected in September 2019. The situation now is: Q5058240 = Commons:Category:Machteld van Foreest = WikiNL:Machteld van Foreest (schaakster) and Q65505227 = WikiNL:Machteld van Foreest. Hope we can keep it that way. I will work more carefully in the future. Vysotsky (talk) 19:52, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

File:Zonder titel PK-F-EAA.6914-2.jpg

Hello Vysotsky! How do you know who this picture represents? His name is not written anywhere. Thanks, bye Pallor (talk) 22:40, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Good question. Metadata of this file is indeed very unclear. But I know most books by Emmy Andriesse, and in this case it is easy to check a photograph from the same session (nr. 6913 cf to nr 6914): this file has both a clear file name, and metadata of the original at Leiden University holds correct and complete information.

Actually, it is not clearly described there either, but on the basis of exclusion it really could be him. (When I asked the question, the university's website was not yet available.) Thanks for the answer! Pallor (talk) 23:27, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
