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!

ProjectChatLanguages[edit]

Hej, could you please explain what you are going to do here? Your changes broke those 2 links. And Simple English "language" does not need a separate project chat. --Stryn (talk) 13:20, 25 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody in the Swedish-speaking part of the community have expressed any need of that kind. I therefor closed the Swedish Bybrunnen some time ago. The Swedish speaking users we have here are using the English Chat instead. (English is mandatory in School for at least 6 years in Sweden, and most of us has studied much more than that. [I have studied English as a school subject for 9 years and when I studied Mathematics and Science in the University, my books and teachers did not have Swedish as their main language.] Film and TV are not dubbing (Q187657) here, some radio are even broadcasted in English without translation. The knowledge of English in the Swedishspeaking parts of Finland are maybe not that good, but not much worse.) -- Innocent bystander (talk) (The user previously known as Lavallen) 11:31, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your answer. I therefore changed the link to go back to the English page. I've also thought about closing the Finnish project chat, because there is not that much activity, and if they have any questions, they can use the English PC page. (In Finland English language is mandatory in school for 7 years). --Stryn (talk) 13:13, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
