User talk:Flominator

Welcome to Wikidata, Flominator!

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!

WikiBlame

Hi Fliminator, would it be possible for WikiBlame to support Wikidata? It would be excellent even if it operate only in raw mode, searching the JSON. John Vandenberg (talk) 02:20, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi John, please give me an example page, I could test it with. --Flominator (talk) 17:03, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Landkreis rank

Hi! Please set preferred rank for the current Landkreis, for example here: Todtnau (Q61665). It is common practice, and many templates use this setting to determine the current value. Thank you, Bean49 (talk) 14:04, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, Bean49, I will try to remember in the future. I'm pretty new to using Wikidata a little more, since I built a feature for the WikiTree browser extension WikiTree BEE, that will retrieve the hierarchical administrative units to build a location string. Are there any tools, like user scripts or something, that will make editing Wikidata a little easier? --Flominator (talk) 19:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Wikidata:Tools. I think Help:QuickStatements/de is the most popular. – Bean49 (talk) 20:01, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

If you don't set preferred rank, we get error on huwiki. Please set preferred rank for the current Landkreis. Münstertal/Schwarzwald (Q274990) With thanks, Bean49 (talk) 14:43, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the reminder. I feel guilty for adding another one, but there were two already, so somebody must have forgotten before me ;) I fixed it. Flominator (talk) 15:05, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. There was no error because one is not Landkreis. Bean49 (talk) 15:25, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
