User talk:Sylvain Ribault
Welcome to Wikidata, Sylvain Ribault!
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!

Creating a ton of empty items?
[edit]Hi Sylvain, why are you creating a ton of empty items like Q104443330? Multichill (talk) 20:27, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
- I applied a brief (6 hour) block to stop you from (accidentally?) creating more empty items. Multichill (talk) 20:43, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
- I'm awfully sorry, I was trying to create one item using QuickStatement V1, following a suggestion here. I was getting a ton of error messages (approx one per second), which I interpreted as the failure of the operation, not as the creation of empty items. I hope that the infernal machine is now stopped. I would be grateful if you would remove all the empty items, or indicate how I could do that. Sylvain Ribault (talk) 22:10, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
Broken import?
[edit]It appears you have been creating lots of empty items en masse. What's going on? Mahir256 (talk) 20:28, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
