Logo of Wikidata Welcome to Wikidata, Meow!

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!

WikiFur Data

[edit]

That was a bold edit to yiff (Q3318957), kudos. 😸 Anyway, I thought I'd mention that I'm prototyping Wikibase use for furry data on WBStack (which I think is being considered for WMDE funding), a wiki farm for Wikibase led by User:Addshore. It's both for learning, and to determine what features might be useful if/when I bring Wikibase support to WikiFur to cover data unsuitable for Wikidata. So far I have a few items, properties, lexemes (since the Esperanto for "furry fandom" was being deleted from Wiktionary - maybe you have similar experiences), even a shape expression for validating convention instances.

Relatively few furries seem to be active in Wikidata, but I figured you and User:Ricky250 might be interested; if you want, I can create accounts for you, as I've done for Russian WikiFur bureaucrat EvilCat, so you can explore what might be needed to meet your furry data needs, and what the current platform lacks. If not, well, at least you know what is being worked on! GreenReaper (talk) 23:42, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly I don’t know much about Wikidata, and I don’t participate a lot in furry fandom as I seldom interact with artists and fans. I am just not sure about what I really can do on this. 🐱💬 10:25, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
OK! I figured I'd ask since I saw you doing a few edits in that area. If you become more involved in the fandom later, we'll probably have data.wikifur.com or something. 😼 GreenReaper (talk) 18:16, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hewo GreenReaper, well i'am a bit inexperienced when it comes to data editing. And my schedule are tight for now. It was indeed an interesting projects you got there for the Furry community, i'll see what I can do when my schedule are freer in the coming month. Thanks for the information owo -Ricky250 (talk) 15:57, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
OK Ricky! I got busy too (poking at both Wikibase and a few other projects). I have relatively little experience too, but it's been interesting learning. If you do get the time and want to poke at it sometime, drop me a note on my own talk page, or an email, and we can go from there. GreenReaper (talk) 18:16, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

For what purpose did you duplicated this item? Trade (talk) 23:30, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Software version ranks

[edit]

Hi - I noticed that these edits resulted in no software version having a preferred rank. Please make sure that when updating that the latest stable release (and only that stable release) has a rank of "preferred". If multiple versions are listed as "Preferred" or "Normal", pages on Wikipedia pulling in the data, such as Bookstack and Comparison of wiki software will pull in ALL versions of this rank, which is a mess.

They are all outdated.  🐱💬 04:41, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
