Welcome to Wikidata, Red Winged Duck!

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.

Translation request

Hello.

Can you create
en:List of heads of state of Azerbaijan be:Шаблон:Палітычныя партыі Азербайджана
be:Катэгорыя:Прэм’ер-міністры Азербайджана
be:Шаблон:Прэзідэнты Азербайджана
be:Шаблон:Прэм’ер-міністры Азербайджана
be:Пячоры Азербайджана
in Belarusian Taraskevica?

Yours sincerely, Sondrion (talk) 09:13, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please look at the map

Before cancelling the correct edit please look at the map with the coordinates of both entities. be:Азярышча (Мінск, заходняя) ("з 1973 года ў складзе Мінска") and ru:Озерище (Минск) are basically the same. Please, return the correct version. — Adavyd (talk) 10:41, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please look at articles first: ru:Озерище (Минск) and be:Азярышча (Мінск, усходняя) describe the same object — see street names and both are part of Minsk since 1989. And be:Азярышча (Мінск, заходняя) since 1973 and describes completely different object some kilometers to the west from the first object. --Red Winged Duck (talk) 10:48, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the case then OK, thanks for explaining. Prior to my edit it was no interwiki connection between be and ru at all. It is good that it exists now. — Adavyd (talk) 10:56, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Removing valid aliases [1] is vandalism. If I see it again, I will block your account.--Ymblanter (talk) 12:30, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good luck! --Red Winged Duck (talk) 12:56, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

3 days, vandalism--Ymblanter (talk) 15:56, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock request declined

This blocked user asked to be unblocked, but one or more administrators has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators can also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason.

Request reason:

No links to rules provided. Block is based on admin personal opinion. No links to edits provided.

Decline reason:

Procedural decline as the block has expired. However, I would have declined your request; their block reason clearly links Wikidata:Vandalism and I agree that you needed to provide a justification for your alias removals. That said, I should note that your edits did not qualify as vandalism in the strict sense because these actions were nonetheless in good faith.--Jasper Deng (talk) 10:19, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Now a month [2], the next one will likely be indefinite. I requalified the reason from vandalism to disruptive editing.--Ymblanter (talk) 11:12, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock request granted

This blocked user asked to be unblocked, and one or more administrators has reviewed and granted this request.

Red Winged Duck

block log • ipblocklist • crossblock • luxo's • unblock • remove gblock • contribs: +/-

Request reason:

Ymblanter provided reason: "deliberate removal valid alias after a warning and a block", but provided link to edit happened before first block. So his reason not valid as you cannot find any valid alias removals after first block.

Unblock reason:

My mistake, apologies. I have unblocked Ymblanter (talk) 13:35, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, do you have a source? The link for "Достоево" at ostisbelarus.sourceforge.net/index.php/Достоевский_сельсовет_1230818000 does suggest that the ID at Dastojeva (Q61332192) is valid, and that the items need to be merged. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 19:52, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Source for current SOATO ID (P2672) is http://map.nca.by/map.html (you should select checkbox «Административно-территориальное деление» and click village on map). Value stated at Dastojeva (Q61332192) is the old one before Dastojeva was moved from Dastojeŭski Sieĺsaviet (Q3918179) to Moladaŭski Sieĺsaviet (Q4300658). And items should be merged for sure. --Red Winged Duck (talk) 20:00, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That explains it, thank you! 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 20:14, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Меткі і апісаньні

Вітаю. Ці не маглі б вы пры рэдагаваньні элемэнтаў Вікізьвестак адначасна і выпраўляць меткі па-беларуску, калі ў іх трапляюцца ўдакладненьні ў дужках. Паводле традыцыі, меткі могуць быць неўнікальнымі для розных элемэнтаў, а ўдакладненьні лепей рабіць у апісаньнях. Напрыклад, метка: Давыд Гарадзенскі. Апісаньне: беларуская памятная манэта. --Taravyvan Adijene (talk) 09:16, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

FC Rustavi

Hi! I see you have added some info to [3] (defunct football club), which should belong to [4]. Can you fix them? Thanks - Pelmeen10 (talk) 06:35, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pelmeen10: I've made some changes to both articles, but you should pay attention, that many of articles at FC Metalurgi Rustavi (Q391914) has mixed info on both clubs, so they should be sorted somehow. --Red Winged Duck (talk) 07:42, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
