Logo of Wikidata Welcome to Wikidata, Scyrme!

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.

Please STOP adding nonsens like this. Thx. --Succu (talk) 20:59, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't a very helpful message, given I have no idea what you believe to be the problem.
"Apricots are species belonging to Prunus sect. Armeniaca" (~enwiki). That's a clade, isn't it? Scyrme (talk) 21:08, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Moved to Prunus sect. Armeniaca (Q21378744). And no! --Succu (talk) 21:13, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Succu, I wasn't aware a separate item existed for the section; I assume the problem is that apricot (Q3733836) is intended to be about the anatomical fruit only.
Moving just the English article doesn't seem like an adequate solution; it breaks all the interlanguage connections. The English article isn't the only one which deals with Prunus sect. Armeniaca. (eg. ~plwiki) It's also not clear which item the English article should link to because it covers both topics.
Are there any guidelines anywhere about how to handle these messy situations properly? Scyrme (talk) 21:25, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Are you aware what a clade (Q713623) is? The current „messy“ part is caused by you. --Succu (talk) 21:42, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
A monophyletic group of organisms which share a common ancestor. Are you saying Prunus sect. Armeniaca is paraphyletic? Scyrme (talk) 22:38, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
