== Merging items ==

Hi, I noticed that you reverted a couple of moves I'd done (e.g. in [[Q10265844]]) in order to maintain the item with the lowest #. I made my choice based on [[Help:Merge#Select recipient item]], which states that "... one item is selected to be the recipient of the sitelinks and properties. This is usually ''the item that is used more often'' (possible indicators are ''links to the items'' or the ''number of sitelinks and statements it has'')." From this I understand that keeping the newer item is not a problem at all, and would save you a lot of extra work. ;) Best, [[User:Capmo|Capmo]] ([[User talk:Capmo|{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}]]) 13:35, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi Lymantria. I am rather confused now. I saw that you and I were the only ones who redirected the duplicated item, while the others delete them. So which is better? Redirect or deletion?

:Luckily we are not indeed the only two admins who do redirect at RfD for merging results. I think that is the preferred way to handle merged files. Some of the administrators however still prefer deletion. A problem is that redirecting is not always as easy as deletion. There is no choice for redirection in the user interface, and sometimes the item is not empty enough and need to be emptied first. For that reason there is not yet a guideline to whether deletion or redirecting is preferred. I think redirecting is more elegant, there are less problems with backlinks and the link to the removed item is still valid from outside wikidata. There are some problem however as well. I think soon a RfC will be started, perhaps I will start it myself. Kind regarsd, and thank you for the many good things you do on wikidata!

::I think a RFC should be started now to prevent such problems in the future. There are already clashes between redirection and deletion now.

== Merging items ==

Hello! I know that the policy has changed but it says that items should be redirected, so then can be deleted. Using commons sense, the items that I listed were items about categories in Asturian Wikipedia with wrong names, and not linked to any other page in any Wikimedia project. They are not used and the item is empty.

== Q18907534 ==

Hi, may I know why Q18907534 has been removed?
There a lot of sources talking about "Danilo Petrozzi" (ie. Freebase, italian interviews and so on). The main source that think that Danilo Petrozzi is notable is Google itself. If you search for that name, Google shows the Knowledge Graph box ([http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=danilo+petrozzi&pws=0 example here])
On Google.it (Italy), if you ask Google questions like "how tall is Danilo Petrozzi" (in italian) it also shows quick answer boxes on the top ([http://www.google.it/search?hl=it&q=quanto+è+alto+danilo+petrozzi&pws=0 example here]) Isn't that enough? --[[User:Danilopetrozzi|Mylo]] ([[User talk:Danilopetrozzi|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 13:57, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

== Bots ==

<div class="mw-content-ltr">


You are receiving this message because a technical change may affect a bot, gadget, or user script you have been using.  The breaking change involves API calls.  This change has been planned for two years.  The WMF will start making this change on '''30 June 2015'''.  A partial list of affected bots can be seen here:  https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2015-June/081931.html  This includes all bots that are using pywikibot compat.  Some of these bots have already been fixed.  However, if you write user scripts or operate a bot that uses the [[:mw:API|API]], then you should check your code, to make sure that it will not break.

What, exactly, is breaking? The "default continuation mode" for action=query requests to api.php will be changing to be easier for new coders to use correctly.  To find out whether your script or bot may be affected, then search the source code (including any frameworks or libraries) for the string "query-continue".  If that is not present, then the script or bot is ''not'' affected.  In a few cases, the code will be present but not used.  In that case, the script or bot will continue working.

This change will be part of 1.26wmf12.  It will be deployed to test wikis (including mediawiki.org) on 30 June, to non-Wikipedias (such as Wiktionary) on 1 July, and to all Wikipedias on 2 July 2015.

If your bot or script is receiving the warning about this upcoming change (as seen at https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=allpages ), it's time to fix your code!

* The simple solution is to simply include the "rawcontinue" parameter with your request to continue receiving the raw continuation data (example <https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=allpages&rawcontinue=1>). No other code changes should be necessary.
* Or you could update your code to use the simplified continuation  documented at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Query#Continuing_queries (example <https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=allpages&continue=>), which is much easier for clients to implement correctly.

Either of the above solutions may be tested immediately, you'll know it works because you stop seeing the warning.

Do you need help with your own bot or script?  Ask questions in e-mail on the [[mail:mediawiki-api|mediawiki-api]] or [[mail:wikitech-l|wikitech-l]] mailing lists.  Volunteers at [[:m:Tech]] or [[:w:en:WP:Village pump (technical)]] or [[:w:en:Wikipedia:Bot owners' noticeboard]] may also be able to help you.

Are you using someone else's gadgets or user scripts?  Most scripts are not affected.  To find out if a script you use needs to be updated, then post a note at the discussion page for the gadget or the talk page of the user who originally made the script.

== Request to revert merges on gene pages in protein pages ==

It is now possible to use content from WikiData to drive infoboxes in English Wikipedia. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Molecular_and_Cellular_Biology#Preparing_for_WikiData_in_gene.2Fprotein_infoboxes 1]. A lot of articles on the English Wikipedia pages are linked to wikidata items about proteins, rather than to wikidata items about genes.[https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:WikiProject_Molecular_biology#interwiki_links_genes.2Fproteins 2] When diving into the matter I have noticed that quite some gene pages are being merged into protein pages. Gene names should "start with a lower case letter unless it is a person's name describing a disease/phenotype or a capitalised abbreviation [http://www.genenames.org/about/guidelines#genenames gene names]. I suspect that the decision to merge the pages was driven by the similarity in names, with only the minor difference in the gene pages not having a capital first letter. Something can never be both a gene and a protein. 
Some of the merges came from you, would it be possible to revert these? (e.g. [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q783442&action=history Q783442] [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q390767&action=history Q390767] [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q5104298&action=history Q5104298] [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q5469818&action=history Q5469818], etc.) [[User:Andrawaag|Andrawaag]] ([[User talk:Andrawaag|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 13:09, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi,

I don't think it's a good idea to create a specific category for each NGC object and to suppress the commons category on the object itself.

== ''Sir and Star'' has a page on the English Wikipedia ==

Please do not delete the Wikidata page for ''Sir and Star'' as it has a page on the English Wikipedia which I am unable to link to.

I created a new Wikidata page for ''Sir and Star'' but still cannot link to Wikipedia article.

Re: '''[[Q21491087]]'''

'''[//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_and_Star Sir and Star]''' on Wikipedia.

Can you restore the page on Wikidata that I already worked on?

Eh, right: Sportdriektor is not Sportlicher Leiter.

But: (de)Sportlicher Leiter is (fr+en)directeur sportif. All are memebers of a cycling team.

(de)Sportdirektor is not a member of a cycling team.

But: (de)Sportdirektor (not cycling) is linked with (fr+en)directeur sportif (cycling). Why?

== Invitation to Wikidata user study ==

Dear Lymantria,<br />
I am  a researcher of the Web and Internet Science group of the University of Southampton.<br />
Together with a group of other researchers from the same University, we are currently conducting a research aiming to discover how newcomers become full participants into the Wikidata community. We are interested in understanding how the usage of tools, the relationships with the community, and the knowledge and application of policy norms change from users' first approach to Wikidata to their full integration as fully active participants.<br />
This study will take place as an interview, either by videotelephony, e.g. Skype, phone, or e-mail, according to the preference of the interviewees. The time required to answer all the questions will likely be about an hour. Further information can be found on the Research Project Page 
[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Becoming_Wikidatians:_evolution_of_participation_in_a_collaborative_structured_knowledge_base. Becoming Wikidatians: evolution of participation in a collaborative structured knowledge base.]<br />
Any data collected will be treated in the strictest confidentiality, no personal information will be processed for the purpose of the research. The study, which has submission number 20117, has received ethical approval following the University of Southampton guidelines.<br />
We aim at gathering about 20 participants, chosen among experienced Wikidata users who authored a large number of contributions.<br />
Should you be interested in taking part or wish to receive further information, you can contact us by writing to the e-mail address ap1a14+wikidata_user_study@ecs.soton.ac.uk. <br />
Thank you very much, your help will be much appreciated!<br />

== Records ==

Hi Lymantria,

Following your comment, I had another look at the proposals for records. I had looked at them twice before without being able to come up with a sensible comment. So, feel free to ignore this. As I don't think I will contribute in the field, I probably shouldn't comment in the discussion there. Use of sample items with the term "progression" in the English labels don't make the discussion easy to digest. I'm not even sure if this should be in the item labels at Wikidata.

Personally, I'd probably suggest a solution like [men's 100 metres world record] (some quantity property for performance) [performance] <qualifier to name a person> <holder>. Maybe "world record" could be in the label for the property for the performance. At least, this would make it easy to determine what is the current world record and when was it set. <br/>--- [[User talk:Jura1|Jura]] 07:31, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
:The "record or record progression" proposal I think has majority support. With olympic games this summer, still I think it would be a good one. The other record proposals don't. Most of them I have withdrawn, but not the "record holder" one, because I don't agree with the objections made. But I don't mind if another property creator decides that it will not be created.

How can i put that comment at that item correct. I'm not that into every kind of properties being used here, and some properties are not that well explained/translated the difference on where there are simlarity wording in for example in english. Is it correct to use the {{P|2559}} instead of {{P|2315}} for that comment you removed ? Best regards [[User:Migrant|Migrant]] ([[User talk:Migrant|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 22:46, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
:Hello Migrant, In fact {{P|2315}} is meant for comments on constraints of properties, while {{P|2559}} are meant for properties only as well.

::Lymantria, I really think that is hiding the comments too far away from the fact and can easily be missed during the transfer from Wikidata to the wikipedias. The comments made should be a note to the property and not a comment on a different page. Who will bring that comment/info/note into the wikipedia-article from there ?

Would you look into [[Wikidata:Property proposal/-nyme|this]]? It seems to be ready for creation. <br/>--- [[User talk:Jura1|Jura]] 11:05, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
:You have marked it ready, but apart from you as a proposer the proposal did not gain any support yet. I will therefore not create it now. As you marked it ready, it seems unlikely to me that people will add support to it. I think you best remove the ready mark and wait for support or more questions.

:Thanks for having looked into it. I can understand that you may not want to create it. It seems to draw questions mainly from people not interested in the property .. well, let's see where it goes. --- [[User talk:Jura1|Jura]] 11:44, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
:In the meantime, it got some support from a regular contributor and commentator on PP. If you prefer, I can create "Jóhannesson" beforehand. <br/>--- [[User talk:Jura1|Jura]] 15:46, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Jura1}} Why not Jóhannesdóttir? Or should they be created both? Should there be qualifiers indicating the language? [[User:Lymantria|Lymantria]] ([[User talk:Lymantria|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 15:50, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
:"Jóhannesdóttir" would be needed as well. Not sure about the qualifier. The language can be a statement on the value-item. <br/>--- [[User talk:Jura1|Jura]] 15:54, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
::I know of a lot of Dutch names that originally were patronyms, but now are just family names. Like, let's say, {{Q|2733656}}. Now one might say that Jan has patronym Jansen, but that is also a bit weird. How would you deal with that? [[User:Lymantria|Lymantria]] ([[User talk:Lymantria|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 15:58, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
:::Somehow I prefer my earlier proposal, I didn't have all those issues ;)  I agree with the approach used by Pawel at [[Q19816823]] using a qualifier for most statements. To avoid upcoming issues, maybe we should make it mandatory or at least highly recommended. <br/>--- [[User talk:Jura1|Jura]] 16:11, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
