Welcome to Wikidata, Pauk!
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.

Duplicates[edit]
Hi, before you make any new items, check that they don't already exist here. You can use page Special:ItemByTitle. Regards. --Stryn (talk) 08:31, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Sitelink removal[edit]
Hi Pauk. I noticed that you removed en and nl sitelinks from Tijuca National Park (Q1974494). This seems to be correct, as you then created Tijuca Forest (Q14942956) to separate the forest and the national park. However, you did not link those sitelinks there, leaving them unconnected. I did link them now, but in the future please try to not forget to do this yourself. Thanks and have a nice day. --YMS (talk) 08:16, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
- Tijuca Forest is a part of Tijuca national park. See fr-wiki. --Pauk (talk) 09:58, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, I've seen that, and great that you saw that first and split up the item. But you unlinked the English and Dutch articles about Tijuca Forest from the Tijuca National Park item, and did not link it to the Tijuca Forest item you created. So those two articles did not have any interwiki links any more, and no connection to the logical Wikidata item about Tijuca Forest. I only wanted to remind you that if you remove some sitelink anywhere, you usually should link it somewhere else afterwards (or, if the target item already exists, there's a "move" gadget in the preferences, so you don't have to unlink and link, but can just move a sitelink from item A to item B in one step). --YMS (talk) 10:59, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
