Guidance on the several different entities for Calorie[edit]
Because there are two kinds of Calorie and a certain amount of real-word ambiguity about them, and because of Wikidata's requirement to have an entry for every Wikipedia article, we have four separate articles on various variants of "Calorie":
- Q130964 (this article) is the "small" calorie
- Q26708069 is the "large", "food", or kilo calorie
- Q87260855 is an entity that refers to either kind of calorie, and is attached to the English-language Wikipedia article w:en:Calorie, since that article analogously discusses both kinds of calorie
- Q16768157 is an entity that is attached to the English-language Wikipedia article w:Calorie (disambiguation), which disambiguates between several other things with the names derived from the word "Calorie".
Wikipedia articles that refer solely or mainly to the "small" calorie (like, I believe, the German Wikipedia w:de:Kalorie) should be sitelinked to Q130964. Similarly, external references that refer mainly to the "small" calorie should be listed as external ID's at Q130964.
Any Wikipedia articles that refer solely or mainly to the kilocalorie (although I'm not sure there are any) should be sitelinked to Q26708069. Similarly, external references that refer mainly to the kilocalorie should be listed as external ID's at Q26708069.
Wikipedia articles that describe both kinds of calorie (like the English Wikipedia w:en:Calorie) should be sitelinked to Q87260855. Similarly, there are some external references (like Freebase ID (P646) /m/01wv2 and Microsoft Academic ID (P6366) 40438245) that describe both, and I am assuming that those should be listed as external ID's at Q87260855.

- Thanks for the clarification. Potentially we could have one item for each of the different calories listed in the English Wikipedia article (7 at the moment). Toni 001 (talk) 23:44, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
- Well I feel like a big idiot. I just merged two of them while just trying to make the "other languages" thing point to the right place, and didn't see this talk page. I'll try to undo my changes, hopefully I'll succeed... --NeatNit (talk) 12:34, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
- Okay, I think I fixed it. The one thing I actually should have done is move the w:he:קלוריה to Q87260855 (both kinds), which I now did. I suspect that most pages here should be moved there, but I can't read any of them (for obvious reasons) so shouldn't do it myself. --NeatNit (talk) 12:44, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
