Welcome to Wikidata, Wouterhagens!
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.

Hi, I noticed your edits on Category:Paper historians (Q31941203). I know the edits are well-intentioned, but just want to let you know that this is an item for category. Statements about the actual profession should not be added there. I have created paper historian (Q99127479), and linked it from Category:Paper historians (Q31941203) through category's main topic (P301). Regards, --Stevenliuyi (talk) 04:07, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for the corrections. I will have to read more the help pages. I use Wikidata only to make the Commons categories complete. The main problem I have is that when a Wikipedia page has no link to a Commons category although there exits a Commons category, but that one is already used by a Wikipedia category. What I do in that case is to add {{Commonscat|Name of the category}}. On the page of the Commons category I add the links to the Wikipedia pages because it gives only the links to the Wikipedia categories. Is there a simple way to do that in Wikidata? Probably it will be mentioned somewhere in the Help pages. Wouterhagens (talk) 10:41, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
