Principios general independente de lingua[edit]

Avoid information that is likely to change[edit]

Words and phrases like "current", "incumbent", "expected", or "next year's" will eventually have to be changed. For example, if you were describing Tatsumi Kimishima, it would be better to use "fifth president of Nintendo" than to use "current president of Nintendo". While both are correct, the latter will change when Mr. Kimishima retires, while the former does not change. Just using "president of Nintendo" would also be appropriate, as it would provide enough information for successful disambiguation if, for example, there were numerous noteworthy individuals by the name of Tatsumi Kimishima.

For sportspeople, it is unwise to list the player's current team, as that also has the possibility to change. If you were describing Daniel Alves, it would be better to use "association football player from Brazil" than to use "association football player at FC Barcelona", because Daniel Alves' club may change.

Avoid opinionated, biased or promotional wording[edit]

Neutrality is a core value of Wikidata, Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. Try to keep descriptions neutral by avoiding opinionated or biased terms. In addition, avoid terminology that could be interpreted as promotional. "American novelist" is a neutral description while "the best novelist in America" is both opinionated and promotional.

Avoid controversial claims[edit]

Descriptions should try to reflect information both accurately and neutrally. If possible, you should avoid including controversial claims in descriptions. For example, it is better to describe the Pinnacle Islands as a "group of islands in East Asia" than a "group of Japanese islands" or a "group of Chinese islands". Remember, there will be a lot more information about an item on the page than just the description.

Follow Wikimedia namespace conventions[edit]

Wikidata contains items for several types of Wikimedia site pages that are found outside of a site's main namespace (for example, non-article pages in Wikipedia). These include templates, category pages, help pages, and Special pages. If an item is for Wikimedia site use only, it should mention the site in the description. This allows readers to know, at a glance, that they are not dealing with normal content.

Examples:

Label: Top Gear
Description: Wikipedia disambiguation page
This item is the Wikipedia disambiguation page for things that are called Top Gear.

Label: Portal:History
Description: Wikipedia portal showcasing content related to the field of history
Although the inclusion of "Portal:" in the title makes it clear to people that are familiar with Wikipedia that this is a Wikipedia portal, not everyone who uses Wikidata will know what that means, so specifying that it is a Wikipedia portal still is a good idea.

Descriptions are not definitions[edit]

The concept represented by the item is defined by the statements not the description. If you need to distinguish an item from another item, add the right statements with sources before you add a special description. Also when searching items don't rely on the description's correctness, check the statements to ensure you found the right item.


Directivas pro descriptiones in anglese[edit]

Iste directivas se applica al descriptiones in anglese. Parlatores de altere linguas pote definir directivas pro lor linguas. Usque isto eveni, le directivas pro anglese pote esser usate como un puncto de initio in le mesura que illos ha senso e es utile pro le lingua individual.

Longitude[edit]

Descriptiones non es phrases complete, ma peciettas de information. In le major parte del casos, le longitude correcte es inter duo e dece-duo parolas. Descriptiones de un sol parola es quasi sempre troppo ambigue, e debe esser evitate. Si le description continua in un secunde linea, illo es probabilemente troppo longe, e si illo continua in un tertie linea, il es quasi certe que illo es troppo longe.

Formulas commun[edit]

Generalmente, un bon puncto de initio pro un description es le classe (si existe) del qual le elemento es un instantia. (Vide instance of (P31))

Istes servi de bon punctos de initio, ma tu non deberea sentir te limitate per illos.

Majusculas e minusculas[edit]

Descriptiones comencia con un littera minuscule excepte quando un majuscula normalmente es requirite o expectate. Essentialmente, tu debe finger que le description appare in le medio de un phrase normal, e postea sequer le regulas normal del lingua. Le major parte del terminos non usarea majusculas si illos appareva in le medio de un phrase. Nonobstante, terminos como nomines proprie (p.ex. le nomines de personas specific, locos specific, e titulos specific) debe usar majusculas.

Exemplos:

Etiquetta: Lionel Messi (Q615)
Description: footballista de Argentina
Iste exemplo comencia con un substantivo (footballista) que non usa normalmente un majuscula in le medio de un phrase, pro isto su prime littera non es un majuscula hic. Argentina es un nomine proprie, e pro isto su prime littera es un majuscula.

Description: galaxia spiral in le constellation Canes Venatici
Iste exemplo comencia con un substantivo (galaxia) que non usa normalmente un majuscula in le medio de un phrase, pro isto su prime littera non es un majuscula hic.


Punctuation[edit]

Descriptiones non es phrases complete, e non debe terminar in punctos. Isto non es un licentia pro ignorar completemente le punctuation; si un description debe haber commas, illos debe esser includite. Wikidata non ha un position sur le uso del comma serial. Tanto "rubie, blanc, e blau" (le comma serial es post blanc) como "rubie, blanc e blau" (sin comma serial) es acceptabile in anglese. Le comma serial es un question disputate, ergo tu debe respectar le election del scriptor initial de includer o non includer lo. Non es necessari reiterar le subjecto in le description, post que illo ja es in le etiquetta.

Exemplos:

Etiquetta: Miami (Q8652)
Description: citate in le sud de Florida, Statos Unite
Le description usa un comma, separante le stato del pais, lo que es normal in le lingua anglese. Non es un phrase complete e non ha un puncto.

Etiquetta: Yoko Ono (Q117012)
Description: artista, autor, e pacifista de Japon
Iste description usa un comma serial. Iste description poterea equalmente esser scribite sin comma post le parola 'autor', e isto esserea correcte in le lingua anglese.

Necun articulo initial (un, le)[edit]

Descriptiones non deberea normalmente comenciar con articulos (un, le). In interlingua, il ha alcun phrases que require un articulo initial, e in tal caso tu pote usar lo; nonobstante, si non es necessari, non deberea esser usate.

Exemplo:

Label: Dwyane Wade (Q31683)
Description: jocator de basketball del Statos Unite
Le casos ordinari non ha un articulo initial. In iste caso, "un" es le articulo initial appropriate, e es omittite.

Ir de plus specific a minus specific[edit]

Descriptiones deberea comenciar con le information le plus specific. Quando se tracta de locos, per exemplo, isto poterea significar comenciar con le municipalitate e finir con le pais.

Exemplos

Etiquetta: Arcenillas (Q1650433)
Description: municipalitate in Zamora, Castile e León, Espania
In general, usa le hierarchia governamental local del nomines pro ir de plus specific a minus specific (Zamora es in Castile e León, que es un communitate autonome in Espania). Le nomines se separa per commas solmente e non per descriptiones (omitte 'provincia de' ante Zamora).

Etiquetta: Velika Polana (Q1043463)
Description: urbe in le municipalitate de Velika Polana, Slovenia
