- Community portal – The portal for community members.
- User options – including the 'Babel' extension, to set your language preferences.

[edit]
Hello, I'm Bovlb. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent description edits to Q115533649 didn't meet the Wikidata description guidelines. Descriptions should appear as though they were in the middle of a sentence, typically start with a lowercase letter, and written from a neutral point of view. For example, "pop singer" would be a better description than "He is the best pop singer." If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Bovlb (talk) 00:18, 28 December 2023 (UTC) --Bovlb (talk) 00:18, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for contributing to Wikidata. I see that you recently created an item Q115556870 that does not clearly indicate its notability. The Wikidata project only accepts items that meet its notability criteria, and your item is therefore likely to be deleted soon.
In brief, items must have an associated Wikipedia article, must be needed for statements on another notable item, or must have both identifiers and serious sources. For the last case, a good indication of notability would be multiple articles about the subject in independent publications like newspapers or magazines. You can add such sources as references to specific claims using reference URL (P854), or as top-level claims using described at URL (P973).
Also, this may not apply in this specific case, but you should know that we discourage editors from contributing on topics with which they have a strong personal connection, as this may present a conflict of interest. If you are being paid to edit here, then you are obliged to disclose this. For a longer version, you might find it useful to read the essay "How to create an item on Wikidata so that it won't get deleted".

Bulk deletion
[edit]I have nominated most of your item creations for deletion at Wikidata:Requests_for_deletions#Bulk_deletion_request_Olabisi11. This is because they lack any indication of notability and you have failed to respond to feedback. Bovlb (talk) 17:36, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
