Dear Liridon: Do you know why have created Wolfgang J Weber (Q115899961)? It is linked to nothing but he might have been a mathematician.
Kind regards
New surnames must be linked to at least one person or be documented with a source reference. Regards
They will be linked, wait for it. ;)
I wait 7 days, then I submit a deletion request for all data records without a source.
Okay
Hi Liridon,
after which database have you once created this item? VIAF?
I'm ready to help you not getting mass-deleted (see below).
Hi @U. M. Owen,
I getting them from https://www.bksh.al/, also Q115900000 has a reference to https://www.bksh.al/details/57350.
Hi Liridon,
Please try to add a description, even if it is only a couple of words (e.g. "Albanian author") or better, words and a date ("Albanian author, fl. 2010"). If you can add it in English also, that will help others to make translations.
It looks like we should have an external ID property for bksh.al - would you like help drafting a proposal?
Hi @Pigsonthewing, I will try to add more info about them, even though sometimes is hard to find a match in cases when books are a translation with translated author names. Good idea to have an external property ID, I will try and draft it.
The whole issue could be solved with a property BKSH ID Nationalbibliothek Albaniens (Q678964). Maybe Pigsonthewing (Diskussion • Beiträge • Logbücher) with the Wikidata:Property proposal.
Hello Liridion,
all your new entries on family names have neither a source nor are they linked to a record. Please do so immediately, otherwise I will submit a deletion request for all family names without a source.
Working on them, I will use those items soon. Even if you request to delete them I will create again as part of imports National Library of Albania. Please Log in next time before leaving a mesage in my talk page.
If the records do not have a source reference and are not linked to any record, they are quickly deleted via a deletion request. Please be sure to cite your sources in each record.
Hello Liridion, do you need help? Then please have a look here >>> Wikidata:WikiProject Names/Properties#Family name. Best regards.
Hi! Thanks for this import (https://editgroups.toolforge.org/b/QSv2T/1669997422341/) of 2k items of authors. However, as of now some of these items - the ones without occupation (P106) - don't meet the notability criteria. I have been able to fix some (e.g. Q115562066) adding VIAF ID (P214) and the IDs it contains, but in other cases (e.g. Q115562067) I'm unable to find IDs or something to make the items notable. Could you please review the items you created without P106 and add a few statements to them in order to make them notable? Thanks!
Please also check potential duplicates, I have found a few of them (e.g. Q115562039, Q115562109).
The problem of notability is especially evident for items with shortened name, surname and no other information, which cannot be considered clearly identifiable (e.g. Q115554559, Q115554554); without some reference to published works, these will surely be deleted.
Hi @Epìdosis, I'm working with notability issue and duplicates, in coming days will add more data to those items and references, also there are books that will be connected at these items. Thank you.
This has been brought up at Wikidata:Administrators'_noticeboard#Liridon
Thanks @Multichill for informing me.
Hi, I see you created Pat Grimshaw (Q116285589) but with insufficient information to establish who is meant! Did your source allow you to provide occupation, dates or anything like that? Dsp13 (talk) 08:02, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
Hello, would you consider using a bot account (with bot flag) for the sq-label setting? I see it very often in my watchlist and it's hiding everything else :). Thanks
Hi @Vojtěch Dostál, I do all queries manually and generate labels/descriptions and then send them to QuickStatements, and don't know a better way to automate them with a bot.
Hi! I guess you could just log in as a bot account with QuickStatements...
You're right, I will switch. BTW I've totally forgot that I already have a bot here and haven't used it since 2017. Thanks
It seems you are still using your non-bot account :)
I did a request for the bot-account, the admins haven't granted me yet the bot-role.
Yes , well... nowadays the requests should be more specific, like this: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Requests_for_permissions/Bot/Vojt%C4%9BchDost%C3%A1lBot
Hi Liridon, I wondered why you created both Colours of the brush (Q106566552) & Colours of the brush (Q106566552)? I found 124 of these cases, see https://w.wiki/3pwc
Looks like there is a duplicate mistake :/ . I'll merge them.
Happens to me too every once in a while usually when the query service is acting up. Thanks for merging them.
