User talk:T Cells
Welcome to Wikidata, T Cells!
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! --ITPRO.UZ (talk) 15:20, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
Yoruba nouns
[edit]I suspect that common words in Yoruba not capitalized, right? So you needn't capitalize them in the begininng of descriptions and labels: Help:Label#Capitalisation. Thanks. --Infovarius (talk) 18:30, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Infovarius, and thanks for this note. Most common words in Yoruba should be capitalised when they start a sentence. For example, "àwọn" is a common word and when it starts a sentence, the first letter is capitalized. Eg. "Àwọn mẹ́ta la fun lówó." T Cells (talk) 18:58, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- But label and description in Wikidata don't start a sentence so they shouldn't be capitalized. Please decapitalize Yoruba common nouns whenever your meet them. --Infovarius (talk) 20:35, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for this information. Regards. T Cells (talk) 21:26, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Um
[edit]I don't think you meant to edit 461 entries on people to say that their given name was "Nijel Amos", did you? DS (talk) 23:26, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi User:DragonflySixtyseven. I wouldn't have intentionally done that. Could you please provide a link to one or two of such entries? Thanks for the heads-up. T Cells (talk) 00:14, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- Q5576947 and Q5559482 and Q5436177 and Q6503554 and Q5373326 and basically everything you edited on September 27 2021. Here, "Nijel Amos" appears 68 times, here 229 times, and here 143 times, and if that doesn't sum to 461, well, I did it in my head. (I'm quite sure I even saw one where "Nijel Amos" was also listed in the field for language.) DS (talk) 00:41, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- Wow! I don't know where that error came from. In that batch, I only added Yoruba label and description to those items. T Cells (talk) 01:46, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- Undoing them now. Thank you for the heads up. T Cells (talk) 01:58, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- ... and it looks like this happened a few hundred times on September 21 also: [1] and [2] and [3] and quite a lot more. I'd advise going through What Links Here. DS (talk) 18:34, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

languages spoken, written or signed (P1412)
[edit]Hi. You have to revert all your edits adding languages spoken, written or signed (P1412)Poland (Q36). Poland (Q36) describes a country, not a language, so such statements are constraint violations. The proper item is Polish (Q809), but in many items languages spoken, written or signed (P1412)Polish (Q809) is already present. Regards, Wostr (talk) 08:47, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you. You beat me to it. I just realized that I added "Poland" instead of "Polish". I will revert them now. Thanks for the heads up. T Cells (talk) 08:50, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
[edit]Your recents edits in Wikidata item of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman have been reverted as they seemed false to me. First of all, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the founding father and first president of Bangladesh, therefor was a Bangladeshi politician. Bengali was his mother language, not Urdu (majority was Bengali-speaker during 1947–1971 timespan in Pakistan). Meghmollar2017 • Talk 08:49, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
Are you running a bot?
[edit]You are making edits at a rapid rate. Are you running a bot? If so, where can I find the approval for the bot? Jc3s5h (talk) 14:18, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- I am not running a bot. Regards. T Cells (talk) 12:50, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Typically people who make lots of edits without a bot are making batches of edits, and often using categories or properties to assemble the lists of edits. If that's what you're doing, it seems your process is flawed. You added a claim to 286104) that his native language (P103) was English, but he was born, and lived until high school age, in Romania, making this claim improbable. Please check your process and make sure it allows for the possibility that a person was raised in one country and later achieved fame in a country with a different language. Jc3s5h (talk) 15:16, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
Languages
[edit]Do you have source for these edits? Because "native language" is simply wrong. Probably you should overview all your automatic edits and fix errors. --Infovarius (talk) 20:36, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up. Regards. T Cells (talk) 21:19, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
Duplicates
[edit]![]() | Warning: You are creating hundreds of duplicates and low-quality items. Please cease adding new content until you have resolved these problems. |
A simple look at the list of items you are creating shows multiple instances of identical or near-identically named items created consecutively (thanks for sorting your data). Check a handful and you'll see that these are not just the same names, but entirely identical content, as well. In a lot of cases, "identical content" doesn't say much, because there are zero statements for the item, or just a single one as on Tchilou (Q109505705). The later category is easy to find: 1791 items with country Rep. of Congo and no P31 (query). Please clean this mess up by, where appropriate, merging items or asking for your edits to be deleted before you add anything new. Karl Oblique (talk) 18:05, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- User:Karl Oblique thanks for your message. Please note that I am working still on the list of items you linked above. I will definitely fix the ones you linked tonight. Duplicates may occasionally happen if the data do not come from the same source(s) . They are often fixed on a case by case basis. If there are specific duplicates, I can easily fix them. Could you please provide a link to the hundreds of duplicates you mentioned above so that I could fix them? Regards. T Cells (talk) 18:26, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- I'm merging the 2,000 I found as we speak. This doesn't include a similar number of items with slight variations in their labels, such as Liongoli (Q109504772) and Longoli (Q109504774) (only Liongoli (Q109504773)). It also doesn't include items that are
not. There is no excuse for errors so sloppy you could see them if you ever took even a cursory look at your data. Please add some link, any link, or reference, to the source of your data as well. Karl Oblique (talk) 18:42, 16 November 2021 (UTC).
- Oh.. I see. Thank you Karl Oblique. T Cells (talk) 18:53, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

UPDATE: Here are 3671 additional items that are instance of (P31)human settlement (Q486972) but have neither located in the administrative territorial entity (P131) nor country (P17) and no sitelinks. I've tried to capture your edits by setting limits on the QIDs, but this might also catch other items. Karl Oblique (talk) 18:59, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- I will fix all of that soonest. I was having issues running the query you linked above. Thanks for the query. Regards. T Cells (talk) 19:05, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
QUESTION: Are there actually villages named Atekou I (Q109527402), Atekou II (Q109532864), and Atekou III (Q109532448), or were you just trying to get around the filter stopping you from adding them after you had already created Atekou (Q109527412) and the filter was stopping you? Those filters serve a reason, you know, and one should pay Attention (Q109507213).
Speaking of Attention (Q109507213), that item has two identical claims for most properties. And usually I would be annoyed by the redundancies of stating that a village (Q532) is also a human settlement (Q486972) and that Attention (Q109507213)country (P17)Republic of the Congo (Q971)
- User:Karl Oblique, thanks for your questions. In most African countries, there are administrative divisions of a city. In Nigeria, for example, they are called ward (Q1195098). See Nasarawa State. Note "Ara I" and "Ara II" , "Karshi I" and "Karshi II". They are different villages and their languages are sometimes slightly different. Atekou I (Q109527402), Atekou II (Q109532864), and Atekou III (Q109532448) are administrative divisions in Congo. It is not in all cases they are duplicates. See for example Lafenwa (Abeokuta north LGA), and Lafenwa (Ado-Odo LGA). So, if we do not indicate the located in the administrative territorial entity (P131), it would seem like a duplicate. This is not to justify that there have not been duplicate in the linked edits above. It's just to provide additional contexts. T Cells (talk) 19:53, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- I am adding additional statement to this now. Thank you. T Cells (talk)
Request translate article about Isabelle de Charrière (Q123386)
[edit]Hello T Cells, Would like to translate the article about Isabelle de Charrière (Q123386) for the YO Wikipedia? She already mentioned with her asteroid 9604 BellevanZuylen. That would be appreciated. Boss-well63 (talk) 12:26, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
P735 value in batch
[edit]Something with the given name values in https://quickstatements.toolforge.org/#/batch/65250 seems to have gone wrong. Sample [4].

Hi! Currently, there are about 350 persons that have "Poland" Q36 as their language, instead of "Polish" Q809. Some of these people have both, for example Q9382609. I think most of them are your additions. So could you please fix this?
The list is here:
The query is this:
SELECT DISTINCT ?work ?workLabel ?languageLabel WHERE { ?work wdt:P37|wdt:P103|wdt:P364|wdt:P407|wdt:P1412 ?language. ?language wdt:P31/wdt:P279* wd:Q7275. SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en". } } ORDER BY ?languageLabel

Qid's as labels
[edit]Please note that you have just made a lot of 'Q[0-9]+' labels. You'll probably want to revert those and try to avoid this next time. Hjart (talk) 14:55, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
