Welcome to Wikidata, Mignof!

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.

February 2023[edit]

Deleted empty item[edit]

I have deleted Q116753761 because it was empty and wasn’t being used anywhere. An item is empty if it does not have any claims or sitelinks. (An item can also be considered empty if it only contains nonsensical claims or unrelated sitelinks.) Unfortunately, such items are not useful to Wikidata, and they are normally deleted. If you were planning to return to this item later in order to complete it, please let me know as I can restore it if appropriate. Remember that all items are expected to demonstrate notability and, although this might not apply in this case, we strongly discourage editors from creating items where they have a conflict of interest, for example about themselves or their employers.

If you were planning to return to this item later in order to complete it, ...
Yes I do, I took my time because I was browsing similar items to use as examples; I still have the tab open where I have several statements inputted. I was hoping to submit them all at once (though that doesn't seem to be possible) and then I was pulled away.
While we're at it, BetterDiscord briefly had an enwiki article (it was redirect-and-merged into Discord and wanted to add a sitelink to redirect) and I was intending to use the references there to make the case for its notability. However I don't know how and where would I insert them into the item... — Mignof (talk | contribs) 23:05, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for following up. I have undeleted the item. Please add some claims as soon as you can. Bovlb (talk) 00:07, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To help me do better in future, how long do you think I should leave an empty item after its last edit before concluding that it is abandoned? Bovlb (talk) 15:45, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
A few hours, up to a day at maximum, I would say. — Mignof (talk | contribs) 15:54, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I've been using 15 minutes with few complaints, but I'm going to try increasing that to an hour. Bovlb (talk) 16:02, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
