Logo of Wikidata Welcome to Wikidata, WT20!

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! --Epìdosis 21:23, 22 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Unauthorised bot

edit

You seem to be running an unauthorised bot under your account, which goes against our bot policy (see Wikidata:Bots). Please stop the bot, make a bot account for it and request a bot flag at Wikidata:Requests for permissions/Bot. - Nikki (talk) 06:51, 23 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Just because there's no reference doesn't mean it should be deleted

edit

There's no policy that says this should be done. If there's not a reference, check if it's notable and add one. Lectrician1 (talk) 16:33, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Machine-translations

edit

I see you've been diligent reporting items to delete. Thanks.

Although, you still appear to do a lot of machine-translations of labels and descriptions in languages you don't obviously don't speak. This isn't really helpful, as machine-translations often are poor quality.

Also some items you recently merged have different catalog number at the British museum: Q124335672, Q124335699, Q124335681. Could you unmerge them? Infrastruktur (talk) 01:27, 29 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Okay i understand,I'm sorry for the machine-translations translations that you think because a friend of mine helped me with the translation. I've been on a journey for a while now and I'm having a bit of a busy time. If you could unmerge a bit, it would help me a bit. Thanks WT20 (talk) 12:18, 29 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Infrastruktur unmerge done I do thank you WT20 (talk) 17:43, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Editathon

edit

Please have a look at Wikidata:Requests for checkuser/Case/Vcldead. Multichill (talk) 12:09, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Multichill Yes I see I don't have an opinion on checkuser's decision here but I think he will reconsider your opinion WT20 (talk) 12:48, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Requests for deletions item Q124398252

edit

I saw your request for deletion, but I think this element is important because it enriches the elements linked to the IFLA vocabulary. Since there is already a property IFLA value vocabularies ID (P9112) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P9112 on Wikidata that aims to enrich the items with links to the ifla vocabularies and as some terms are already present, I am also adding other items to group all the ifla ids. What do you thing? --Camila Degen (talk) 09:14, 7 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

This discussion has already been closed. You may be viewing it after a long time and it has not been deleted. It has been marked by an administrator WT20 (talk) 12:04, 7 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
First you had two data which is not enough to verify your data then User:Lymantria added data however this data was not deleted later and this discussion has already ended.It was a questionable deletion proposal.example I say

notably? Thank you. WT20 (talk) 12:36, 7 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Taxons

edit

Hi, just know that all of the 13 taxons you submited in WD:RfD are notable. Please assume good faith from newcommers. I see that @Lectrician1 also warned you about the same behaviour. Fralambert (talk) 00:09, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

@FralambertThanks I asked for delete because it meant that all the data was empty and he created multiple empty data in one way and later I said on his talk page that the discussion is still ongoing [1] WT20 (talk) 18:13, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
Not only that, the data created by him already has a lot of data. WT20 (talk) 18:23, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

June 2024

edit

  Hello, I'm Eihel. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent description edits to Q96126310 didn't meet the Wikidata description guidelines. Descriptions should appear as though they were in the middle of a sentence, typically start with a lowercase letter, and written from a neutral point of view. For example, "pop singer" would be a better description than "He is the best pop singer." If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!  Eihel (talk) 03:27, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
