Welcome to Wikidata, Renamerr!

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!

Cycling

Hi Renamerr. I see you add translations about items of cycling in Ukrainian. If you are interested, we have a list of items we use on Wikidata:WikiProject Cycling/Kit to translate and on Wikidata:WikiProject Cycling/Kit to translate/Jerseys. Items are all differents even if the difference is sometimes small. With these translations, it is easy to understand our datas in Ukrainian. Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick (talk) 12:03, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! --Renamerr (talk) 15:35, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

How many batches and edits do you have left?

You're running 350+ edits a minute (6/second). Im wondering how many do you have left? Artix Kreiger (talk) 15:43, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi, please slow down. 350 edits per minute is absolutely abnormal. — regards, Revi 16:00, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I blocked you for 24 hours to stop you editing too quickly. Please respect the server, by editing slowly. Thank you. — regards, Revi 16:05, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

I will unblock you as soon as you leave a note here, that you have acknowledged the message. Thanks. — regards, Revi 16:05, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi. I acknowledge this message. 3/second are ok? Thanks. --Renamerr (talk) 16:41, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'll unblock you, but I believe you should edit a lot slower than that. I asked Wikimedia Foundation Database staff to step in and give their opinion on acceptable speed. Thanks. — regards, Revi 16:48, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

As a general note, 6 per minute is the guideline, and you should never edit faster than one edit per 5 second. — regards, Revi 05:32, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi. This is impossible when I use QuickStatements. Minimum speed of this tool is 100 edits per minute. I have planned more than 1 million semi-automated edits (for insects only). What should I do? Thank you. Best regards. --Renamerr (talk) 12:22, 21 March 2018 (UTC) P.S. I read it. --Renamerr (talk) 15:25, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Please slow down

Hi, can you please slow down editing? You are causing noticeable dispatch lag. I'm aware that this is probably an issue with quickstatements, but for now, please make sure you slow down or stop editing. Cheers, Hoo man (talk) 19:06, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

I needed to block you for now… please stop quickstatements. Cheers, Hoo man (talk) 19:40, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

Please slow down. --Titodutta (talk) 20:08, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

I had to block you again, given the current dispatch lag and the fact that you were editing at maybe 70 edits per minute. That is way to fast. Cheers, Hoo man (talk) 14:30, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

You're editing way to fast again and we have about half an hour of dispatch lag. Please slow down! Cheers, Hoo man (talk) 13:51, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

 Done --Renamerr (talk) 13:57, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

• Could you please consider using a bot to make changes? --Titodutta (talk) 21:21, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi, Titodutta. Now there is enough QuickStatements to solve my tasks. Thank you. --Renamerr (talk) 05:58, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Reasonator "translations"

Hi, you replaced many of the English translations in Reasonator with some other language, despite a clear warning that you are editing English, which you had to acknowledge.

I have changed your translations to "uk" (assuming that's the language you used) and restored the previous English labels, but please be more careful and actually read the warning that the tool shows. --Magnus Manske (talk) 07:45, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Потрібна допомога!

Добрий вечір!

Потрібна Ваша допомога. Нещодавно я побачив у Вікісховищі карточку. Ну я думав, що вони мало не автоматично створюються. ;-) І от сьогодні створив категорію у Вікісховищі. А далі вставив шаблон - пропонується створити новий. Я створив і виявив, що хтось вже створив у Вікіданих. От і тепер маю клопіт - що робити? Створив Q55670743. Існує Q4513669 Підскажіть, будь ласка. Якщо можна - якомога детальніше, бо для мене вікідані - майже як китайська грамота... ;-0 ;-( Дякую!--Nickispeaki (talk) 19:38, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

На Вікісховищі оце.--Nickispeaki (talk) 19:38, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Щиро вітаю. Якщо я правильно зрозумів, то вам треба об'єднати два елементи Вікіданих в один. Раджу оце - детальніше й не розкажеш. Пишіть ще - тут мало спілкування українською. --Renamerr (talk) 07:35, 21 July 2018 (UTC) P.S. @Nickispeaki: Якщо сказати конкретніше, то раджу використати додаток і спершу приєднати Chernykhiv (Q55670743) до елемента-пісочниці Wikidata Sandbox (Q4115189), в якій можна робити що завгодно, або не заморочуватися — вручну перенести окремо потрібні поля і витерти всі поля Chernykhiv (Q55670743), а бот через деякий час прибере порожній елемент. --Renamerr (talk) 08:08, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Дякую! Точно! ;-) Я колись вже так робив, але забув! Все вийшло! У мене навіть той додаток увімкнений вже. Щойно глянув і згадав.--Nickispeaki (talk) 09:57, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Новий прикол - із інфобокса у вікісховищі НЕ працює карта гугля! Не переходить за посиланням. Нот фаунд! ;-( Але ж я так розумію, що це глюк на Вікіданих? Чи де? Опенстріт працює, але вона не така зручна. Того ж масштабу там немає, доводиться на око вимірювати відстанні, тощо.--Nickispeaki (talk) 10:05, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Написав автору шаблона Wikidata Infobox — нічим він не може допомогти, і я також, на жаль. І ще, категорії Вікісховища мають відповідні елементи Вікіданих, що описують категорії Вікісховища, а ваша категорія тепер посилається відразу на елемент Вікіданих, що описує сам населений пункт. За приклад можна взяти посилання на елемент ВД з Category:Lviv і з Category:Kyiv. --Renamerr (talk) 12:11, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Descriptions for items

Hello Renamerr,

I add as you do it with QuickStatements descriptions to items. I looked in the list of the Wikiprojects and I saw that there is the Wikidata:WikiProject_Labels_and_descriptions. Are you interested in participating in this project and sharing lists with the items where you add descriptions or the querys. At my user page I created sub pages pages with queries for specific items without descriptions in German. I think it would reduce double work and could help people who want to parcipate. If you know how it works, it doesnt need long to download the result as a CSV adding the general description and put it into QuickStatements. That needs maybe one minute I think. At a project page there could be added a list with the description for something in different languages and the irregular forms. For example in German the countrienames are not regular. -- Hogü-456 (talk) 20:11, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Translation request

Hello.

Can you create en:List of museums in Baku in Ukrainian Wikipedia?

Yours sincerely, A2D2 (talk) 04:57, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

Edit rate

The query service is currently behind. It would help not to run multiple batches of QuickStatements on your account. Could you pause all batches for a few hours to give the query service some time to catch up? Thanks! Sjoerd de Bruin (talk) 14:04, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

I've had to block your account due to the above. Feel free to ping me if you've read this. Sjoerd de Bruin (talk) 14:37, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

Anyone for Everyone

Good morning,

How has it been collaboratively contributing to Wikipedia and its sister projects?

I would really appreciate your views on the Anyone for Everyone program.

Anyone for Everyone is a campaign to encourage and guide internet users to contribute more to Wikimedia projects. The campaign aims to encourage 19 actions/activities that anyone could do on Wikimedia projects (Commons, Wikidata, Wikibooks etc.) for the benefit of everyone. Can you help expand the list by adding bullet points?

Thanks for weaving the lines and letters that make information neutrally open to the world.

Cross-wiki vandalism from 117.225.66.202 (I think this IP must be blocked globally)

Hi! I'm writing you because I don't know anyone who is an administrator here in Wikidata, but I've noticed that someone using the IP adress 117.225.66.202 did a lot of cross-wiki vandalisms, erasing, for example, the links to the page "List of Presidents of Senegal" (Q845245) (I've restablished some of them) and also to the page "Lista de presidentes da Moldávia (Q312271)" (I've also riestablished some of the links). He reverted some articles in multiple Wikipedias to old versions. As I'm an administrator in Ido Wikipedia, I've blocked him/her there, but I think that this person must be blocked globally. Otherwise he may start vandalizing other articles.

Hi @Lymantria please do something. 2405:204:1400:91E4:0:0:47F:88A1 05:33, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

No. Your link must represent a mesh up of different persons or another fake, as the Sunil Butolia presented in Q86919412 and here was born in 1988, while the link you provide mentions works starting in 1985-1986. Lymantria (talk) 06:32, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your work in maintaining Wikidata. I have a small suggestion to improve your future work. If you notice that two items are duplicates, please merge them instead of blanking one of them as you did with the item Q34438088. External sites use Wikidata identifiers, so it is important that we preserve the chain of references. We do this by making one item a redirect for the other. In particular, item ids are intended to be a permanent identifier, so we never reuse them for another concept. See Help:Merge for more information on how to merge items, and consider installing the Merge Gadget. Thanks!  Bovlb (talk) 04:57, 16 November 2022 (UTC) --Bovlb (talk) 04:57, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello.

Can you add the newly created category cdo:分類:Azerbaijan in Min Dong Wikipedia to the Wikidata page of "Category:Azerbaijan" (Q5609682)? That page is protected and that is why I cannot add it.

Yours sincerely, 31.200.16.201 18:09, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

 Done Renamerr (talk) 20:46, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

Why don't you look into a bot account?

I see you have a tremendous number of description changes. However, these all fill recent changes and makes it hard to see problematic edits. Could you maybe think about getting a bot account with a bot flag for these renames? RPI2026F1 (talk) 14:10, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

I also came here because you're constantly flooding recent changes. Please stop your QuickStatements batches, make a bot account for them, and request a bot flag for the account at Wikidata:Requests for permissions/Bot. - Nikki (talk) 07:06, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

@Nikki: Hi, I have already stopped adding my new QuickStatements packages. --Renamerr (talk) 08:18, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

That won't help because to my knowledge QuickStatements cannot or does not use the bot flag. Research Bot is also flooding RecentChanges with it even though i know for a fact that is a bot with a proper bot flag. RPI2026F1 (talk) 11:46, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

What I recommend is making a bot account with a bot flag, then using https://github.com/maxlath/wikibase-cli/blob/main/docs/read_operations.md#wb-sparql and https://github.com/maxlath/wikibase-cli/blob/main/docs/write_operations.md#batch-mode along with making a ToolForge account. That way edit batches don't have to be run with only 10k items at a time, I've used wikibase-cli to edit 55k descriptions at once. RPI2026F1 (talk) 11:54, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi @RPI2026F1: Does your recommendation work in the background (asynchronous) batch mode like QuickStatements does? --Renamerr (talk) 14:05, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

If you run it on Toolforge it does, but you need some UNIX knowledge. RPI2026F1 (talk) 18:08, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: My UNIX skills are very close to zero, except for my almost forgotten experience with some commands of the old MS DOS:). At the same time, the need for asynchronous batch mode is critical for me, because I edit from Ukraine in conditions of frequent air alarms and much more frequent power outages, which are caused by war and missile attacks on the territory of Ukraine by rashist Russia.

But I want to try your recommendation with your help if you don't mind. I will try not to ask too simple questions. Can you walk me through the process of running a my first test asynchronous batch? --RenmBot (talk) 14:18, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

Did you make a request for Toolforge access? I highly recommend using your main account. Follow the instructions here. More specifically, follow this to ask for access. When signing up for access, link back to this section. RPI2026F1 (talk) 15:08, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

You can run bot accounts on Toolforge but you sign in using your primary account. Since you can execute any amount of code, you can run multiple unique bots from the same main account. RPI2026F1 (talk) 15:17, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: Just yesterday I tried step 1 ("1. Create a Wikimedia developer account."). As a result, the page with selected "Linked accounts" shows three sections for me (RenmBot is my bot):

- "Wikimedia developer account" (Username: RenmBot; UNIX shell username: xxxxx);

- "Wikimedia account" (Username: RenmBot; + button "Refresh OAuth credentials");

- "Phabricator account" (Username: Renamerr; + button "Refresh Phabricator data").

Is this result correct or should I redo/fix it? --RenmBot (talk) 19:36, 30 December 2022 (UTC) P.S. Looks like I violated your "I highly recommend using your main account" recommendation here. --RenmBot (talk) 19:43, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

I'm saying to use the main account because now there's a mismatch between the "Phabricator account" and the other accounts. Oh well if it's already done there's nothing you can do. In that submit your request. RPI2026F1 (talk) 20:52, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: Thank you very much.

1) I just played with the "Refresh OAuth credentials" button and that page now shows this:

- "Wikimedia developer account" (Username: RenmBot; UNIX shell username: xxxxx);

- "Wikimedia account" (Username: Renamerr; + button "Refresh OAuth credentials");

- "Phabricator account" (Username: Renamerr; + button "Refresh Phabricator data").

Did it get better?

2) Step 2 ("2. Create an SSH key and add it to your Wikitech account.") to perform, or can it be skipped for now? --Renamerr (talk) 21:52, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

You should do that now, it doesn't take too much time. RPI2026F1 (talk) 00:52, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: I sent a request here. Maybe it should be supplemented? --Renamerr (talk) 22:42, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

No that seems good. It takes a few days to be processed. They will tell you if they need more info though. RPI2026F1 (talk) 04:30, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: Status Approved!. I did step 4 here. Please tell me how to do step 5 (I didn't find the existing tool wikibase-cli here). --Renamerr (talk) 20:43, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

You're going to have to make a new tool. Give it the same name as your bot. Once you make the tool, wait an hour or two, and then ssh into the Toolforge machine. Once you're in, run become <name>. After that, run these commands:

webservice --backend=kubernetes node16 shell
echo prefix=~/.local > ~/.npmrc
echo 'export PATH=~/.local/bin/:$PATH' > .profile

@RPI2026F1: I did it! Thank you very much. Now I'm asking for advice on how best to organize the launch of large asynchronous batches for the task of adding identical item descriptions in Ukrainian. --Renamerr (talk) 10:46, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

The easiest way is to make a textfile of item QIDs, one per line and nothing else. Then, open a tmux session (just type tmux) and then run this command: cat <filename>.txt | tr -d '\r' | while read id; do echo $id <lang> "<new description>"; done | wd set-description --batch --no-exit-on-error -s '<summary>' 2>&1 | pv -l -s $(wc -l <filename>.txt | awk '{print $1}') > /dev/null. Once it starts running you can do Ctrl + B and then D to detach from the session. You can always tmux attach to come back to it. RPI2026F1 (talk) 17:20, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: Everything works very well. Many thanks again. --Renamerr (talk) 11:29, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

You're weclome. RPI2026F1 (talk) 15:55, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: Hello. Please help me once again with writing long line that starts with commands cat <filename>.txt | tr -d '\r' | while read id ..., but for a different case, when the file contains lines with different descriptions of items. Previously, I developed scripts/programs to generate QuickStatements commands that change/set item descriptions. As you know, the format of these lines is as follows: Q4115189 TAB Duk TAB "new description of item" Thank you. --Renamerr (talk) 11:14, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

If you make each line in the file of the form <id> <lang> "<description>" (those quotes are required), you can directly skip the while step and just do cat <filename>.txt | tr -d '\r' | wd set-description --batch --no-exit-on-error -s '<summary>' 2>&1 | pv -l -s $(wc -l <filename>.txt | awk '{print $1}') > /dev/null . RPI2026F1 (talk) 13:09, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

It's similar to a quickstatement line but you use spaces instead of tabs and you drop the "D" prefix for the lang code. RPI2026F1 (talk) 13:11, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

@RPI2026F1: Hello. Unfortunately, I must inform you that, since January 17, 2024, I have encountered recurring issues while attempting to execute a set of commands.

Specifically, the file labeled file03 comprises 10 lines featuring the format Q93501803 uk "наукова стаття".

Upon initiating the tmux command, dialogue follows:

tools.renbot@tools-sgebastion-10:~$ cat file03 | tr -d '\r' | wd set-description --batch --no-exit-on-error -s 'translation from Dutch' 2>&1 | pv -l -s $(wc -l file03 | awk '{print $1}') > /dev/null

123 0:00:10 [12.0 /s] [=================================================================] 1025%

tools.renbot@tools-sgebastion-10:~$

However, the contribution of user RenmBot does not change. What could be the reason? Thank you. Sincerely, --Renamerr (talk) 09:30, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

You might need to regenerate your auth token. Try removing the 2>&1. RPI2026F1 (talk) 19:59, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Bonjour Renamerr

Bonjour Renamerr,
Je travaille depuis des années sur une bibliographie très spécialisée.
Depuis quelques temps, je vois les items que j'ai créés subir des modifications dont l'une est particulièrement importante pour ma bibliographie. La nature de l'élément est systématiquement modifiée et disparait le qualificatif "version, édition ou traduction" sans autre forme de débat.
Pouvez-vous, s'il vous plaît, ne plus effectuer ces modifications ?
Je m'en suis plainte plusieurs fois sur le bistrot. Je vous serais obligée de venir discuter de ce point sur le bistrot avec les administrateurs.
Si cette modification a une raison, il faudrait également modifier le m:bibliographie sur Wikiversité, après discussion avec les administrateurs de Wikiversité

Hello, Renamerr

English:

I have been working for years on a very specialised bibliography.

For some time now, I have been seeing the items I have created undergo changes, one of which is particularly important for my bibliography. The nature of the item is systematically changed and the qualifier "version, edition or translation" disappears without further discussion.
Would you please stop those change ? Thanks a lot.
I have complained about this several times in the bistro. I would be obliged if you could come and discuss this on the bistro with the administrators.
If there is a reason for this change, the m:bibliography on Wikiversity should also be changed, after discussion with the Wikiversity administrators. Ambre Troizat (talk) 18:52, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Dear @Ambre Troizat:,

I am sorry to hear that you are facing some problems. I am saddened by this news and would be happy to assist you in resolving these issues. It would be greatly appreciated if you could provide links to any changes made by me or my bot that could be problematic. I am currently unable to locate these possible problematic edits, so I would appreciate your help in this matter.

Sincerely, --Renamerr (talk) 20:30, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

It's allright. If we can collaborate.
I will appreciate your good help. Ambre Troizat (talk) 21:08, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Adding non-constructive descriptions with your bot

These edits don't look ok. You should revert or improve them. Multichill (talk) 16:47, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

I stopped this bot task. I wonder why the filter considers these edits "possible non-constructive description"? --Renamerr (talk) 19:03, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Because these descriptions are non-constructive. Multichill (talk) 20:33, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

The filter says that this is possibly non-constructive description. He is not sure and you are sure. Why? --Renamerr (talk) 23:34, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

The filter is just a filter created by User:Matěj Suchánek that tags things a human should review. I'm human and I know that "(1684-1744)" is not a good description. Multichill (talk) 18:40, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

Looks like this filter is described here. It reacts to descriptions without alphabetical characters and is described by the regular expression '^[\W\d]+$'. --Renamerr (talk) 22:40, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

Help define a label

Hello do you know how to define the label for Solha (Q12220231) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q12220231#sitelinks-wikipedia . Thank you JMGuyon (talk) 12:40, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but I don't have information on how to define the label for Solha (Q12220231) in Ukrainian. --Renamerr (talk) 12:51, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Архітекторки

Доброго часу! Я зустрічаю додані Вами описи "архітекторка" в жіночих біографіях з різних країн. То робилося частково автоматично, еге ж? Як саме? І чи є змога додавати одразу з якої країни, бо наразі я ходжу і додаю "угорська архітекторка", "американська архітекторка" тощо. Щоб не робити подвійної роботи. Всіх благ, Franzekafka (talk) 14:58, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

І підкажіть зразу, що ще Ви додавали по жінках, крім архітекторок? Franzekafka (talk) 15:36, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Вітаю. Наразі дам відповідь на останнє питання — список українських описів елементів Вікіданих зі словами, які закінчуються на -орка, від 17.01.2024. У списку один рядок відповідає одному українському опису і містить: посилання на елемент-приклад з описом, сам опис, кількість елементів Вікіданих з таким описом.

Це робота всіх, не тільки моя. З повагою --Renamerr (talk) 17:00, 23 January 2024 (UTC) P.S. Бачу, що з архітекторками Ви самі вже розібралися — 17-го їх було 111, а тепер — 16. Дякую. --Renamerr (talk) 17:44, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Для автоматизації підготовки даних і редагувань використовую:

• Quarry для отримання узагальненої інформації про описи елементів Вікіданих (фрагмент такої інформації я навів у списку вище) і отримання списків елементів, описи/назви яких подібні/збігаються з заданими рядками;
• Wikidata Query Service для детального аналізу списків елементів і підготовки команд для QuickStatements;
• QuickStatements для пакетного редагування описів Вікіданих;
• Notepad2 для пошуку/заміни в тексті з використанням регулярних виразів.

Ще застосовую Wikibase CLI для редагування описів, але то досить складний і, на жаль, ненадійний інструмент — ось тепер висить, з 17-го числа ним неможливо скористатися. --Renamerr (talk) 12:14, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Щодо "додавати одразу з якої країни", то теоретично така можливість є, якщо у запитах Wikidata Query Service враховувати властивість "громадянство" (P27). Треба буде спробувати.

Звертайтеся запросто з пропозиціями/завданнями для бота/питаннями. --Renamerr (talk) 14:49, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Description for John Service (Q100921615)

Hi Renamerr, I just merged John Service (Q100921616) into John Service (Q100921615). Now the Ukrainian description is not accurate anymore, maybe you can take care of this? Thank you, Dorades (talk) 18:50, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi Dorades, I updated the Ukrainian description and label. --Renamerr (talk) 22:58, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Q122761017

Hi there :) How sure are You about Ukrainian description of this mouse? There was some joke in English desc, i think. regards, Piastu (talk) 13:55, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi there! :) Thanks for reaching out. Regarding the Ukrainian description of the mouse, I'm not entirely sure if it's a joke. There's an element, "nomen utique rejiciendum" Q15149791, which is described as a "suppressed name; may not be used for any taxon". Interestingly, there are over 1800 items in Wikidata with the English description "name that may not be used", so it might not be a joke after all. Best regards, --Renamerr (talk) 09:21, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Good point, i'll have to look closer at that. But ­P31 says it is Q16521, some kind of taxon, not name of taxon – so i think description should include some suggestion, it's a taxon :) regards, Piastu (talk) 09:51, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
