Uncommon fritillary

Welcome to Wikidata, Uncommon fritillary!

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!

GNIS Matches

I wanted to say hi and thanks for helping out with the GNIS Buildings import on Mix-n-match. I've been wanting to make it down to a DC Wikipedia meeting... maybe that will be my New Years resolution. : Wolfgang8741 (talk) 03:36, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

Merge

Hello!

Could you please merge Société d'étude des sciences naturelles de Nîmes (Q46730069) and Société d'étude des sciences naturelles de Nîmes (Q59770658)? Apologies for having created a duplicate...

Thanks in advance and best regards. 80.12.63.235 12:18, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Copying my response to the user talk page (which was to an anonymous IP address):

I could merge these but am wondering if one isn't an earlier form of name for a society that later used a different form, rather than two forms of name used concurrently by the same entity. I would want to do some digging into more reference sources just in case they deserve to stay separate (catalog librarians like me tend to want to be reasonably sure). For now I'd say let's keep both forms, & I'll see if I can find more information about the society/societies. Thank you for contacting me! Uncommon fritillary (talk) 01:54, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

Interview Invitation

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 directly. The conversation should take about 30 min.

Hope you have a great day,

Call for participation in a task-based online experiment

Dear Diane Shaw,

I hope you are doing good,

I am Kholoud, a researcher at King's College London, and I work on a project as part of my PhD research, in which I have developed a personalised recommender system that suggests Wikidata items for the editors based on their past edits. I am collaborating on this project with Elena Simperl and Miaojing Shi.

I am inviting you to a task-based study that will ask you to provide your judgments about the relevance of the items suggested by our system based on your previous edits.

Participation is completely voluntary, and your cooperation will enable us to evaluate the accuracy of the recommender system in suggesting relevant items to you. We will analyse the results anonymised, and they will be published to a research venue.

The study will start in late February 2022, and it should take no more than 30 minutes.

If you agree to participate in this study, please either contact me at kholoud.alghamdi@kcl.ac.uk or use this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSees9WzFXR0Vl3mHLkZCaByeFHRrBy51kBca53euq9nt3XWog/viewform?usp=sf_link

I will contact you with the link to start the study.

For more information about the study, please read this post: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Kholoudsaa

In case you have further questions or require more information, don't hesitate to contact me through my mentioned email.

Thank you for considering taking part in this research.

Regards

Magnolia Press/Editions

Hello! I don't think you should have made this merge to be honest. The "Magnolia Press" you merged in is based in New Zealand, not Oakland, California, so far as I know, and even has its own website separate to that of Magnolia Editions. (Admittedly I only just came across this now because now a bot is resolving redirects from the merge and it came up with one item on my watchlist.) Monster Iestyn (talk) 13:33, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

If the merge was based on VIAF by any chance, I've found that people or organisations with the same name are sometimes conflated on there unfortunately. (By the way yes I've undone the merge and reverted the bot redirect fixes now) Monster Iestyn (talk) 14:05, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
