Hi there!

I noticed you made some changes to the tracklist of Don - Wikidata resulting in the same track appearing twice. Is this on purpose?

m.

@Moebeus Apologies! I merged two items which were the same. I did not notice the "Tracklists" & "MusicBrainz ID's" were slightly different. Only one of them could remain for each.

Sadly, I do not know which one, as the tracklist series ordinal is different and one ID is linked to Mix&Match? Upto you. ~~~~

Then I'll keep "Yeh Mera Dil Yaar Ka Diwana" as track 3 and delete the other. Thank you for all the hard work you're doing, much appreciated!

Nice to see all your work on filmi music lately! Just wanted to recommend the following script which is really useful when working with music items (it helps visualize parts of the data model that might not immediately be obvious)

//Ex Musica userscript by Nikki

mw.loader.load("//www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=User:Nikki/ExMusica.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript");

Thanks again for your addition of lexemes in various Indian languages!

I am slowly going through S. W. Fallon's dictionary of Hindustani proverbs, adding lexemes for their components as I go: for instance, in making अब भी मेरा मुरदा तेरे ज़िंदा पर भारी है/اب بھی میرا مرده تیرے زندہ پر بھاری ہے (L617313), I ended up creating मुरदा/مرده (L617310), ज़िंदा/زندہ (L617311), and भारी/بھاری (L617312). In the haste of creating these, however, these last three lexemes currently lack senses, partly because I thought it might be better for actual speakers of Hindi or Urdu to do this for individual words. (Similarly, for fixed expressions such as अंगारों पर लोटना/انگاروں پر لوٹنا (L619308), I am even sourcing definitions to both Platts's dictionary and an out-of-copyright version of the Hindi Shabdsagar, but I am not necessarily doing this for the components of these fixed expressions.)

https://w.wiki/4UNh is a list of Hindustani lexemes without senses (with Hindi and Urdu lemmata and their lexical categories), if you are able to add meanings to some of them.

Thanks again!

(@Vis M: who might also be interested in this.)

@Mahir256 I have added senses. However, I cannot find a proper item for this sense (P5137) or predicate for (P9970). Hope you or someone else can add it later.

No worries! What's important is that https://w.wiki/4UNh is available for you to list other lexemes requiring senses, should you wish to do this later.

Try it!

Hello Vunj9xy77o5tb42b,

Really sorry for the inconvenience. This is a gentle note to request that you check your email. We sent you a message titled "The Community Insights survey is coming!". If you have questions, email surveys@wikimedia.org.

You can see my explanation here.

Greetings,

I noticed your editing stats in Wikidata, which led me to look up your profile. Thank you for all the great work!

I’m reaching out to you because I’m working on a research project about understanding what motivates editors like you to contribute to Wikidata. We’re also interested in learning about how you feel your contributions are being used outside of Wikidata. Since you are such an active community member, I thought you might also be interested in helping to build the broader community’s knowledge about Wikidata, and why it matters.

If you’re interested, let’s schedule a time to talk over Zoom, or whichever platform you prefer. If you are interested, please fill in a questionnaire or reply to me directly. The conversation should take about 30 min.

Hope you have a great day,

Charles

Hi!

Thank you for wearing the {{User loves OpenRefine}} userbox on your user page!

Because the existing Wikidata reconciliation service has had severe performance issues recently, I have created a new one which should be faster and more robust. You can add it to OpenRefine in the reconciliation dialog with the following URL: https://wikidata.reconci.link/en/api (or by replacing en by any other language code).

If you have any issues with this new service, let me know.

Happy reconciling! − Pintoch (talk)

The Republic of India did not exist before 15 August 1947, so a play written in Classical Sanskrit predates the start of that country by several centuries.

Thank You for the correction!

As the historical Dynasty or Kingdom is not clear or specified for some historical works, would it be better to create a Indian Cultural/Regional Item, like China: Q29520 ?

As some of the Library Identifiers do specify the modern day Nation/Country as the Country of Origin, even if the historical country/kingdom is known.

Any Ideas?

Possibly a regional identifier, or a historical region, such as Ancient Greece: Q11772 or as Roman Empire: Q2277.
