Hello, and welcome to Wikiversity!

Here are some tips to help you get started:

  • To learn the wiki-markup-language syntax, see Help:Editing.
  • You should sign your name on talk and vote pages using two dashes and four tildes, like this: --~~~~.
    • There is a button at the top of the edit window that will insert this, too; it looks like part of a signature.
  • Preferably, conduct any editing experiments in the sandbox.
  • You can tell the community something about yourself in your user page.
    • You can get to this page by clicking the tab at the top of the page labeled with your registered username.
  • To attain a better understanding of what Wikiversity is, you might want to read through the introduction.
  • Please say hello at the Wikiversity:Colloquium with any questions or ideas.
  • Eventually, you might want to take the guided tour.
  • Please take a look at Wikiversity:Namespaces to get a better idea of how Wikiversity is structurally setup.
  • Wikiversity works a bit differently than other Wikimedia projecs. You may want to read about having a neutral point of view.
  • If you are interested in conducting research, please read the research guidelines.
  • Explore, be bold in editing pages, and have fun!

You will find more resources in Community Portal. If you want to ask a question, visit the questions page, the IRC (chat) page or ask me personally on my talk page. For site news, see the news page. It also might be a good idea if you add this page to your "watchlist" so that you can see when any new information is posted there.

Good luck! --Remi 21:19, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidata documentation for newbies[edit source]

HI {{PAGENAME}},

I was on [[WikiQuote]] (WQ) and saw a link which led me Wikidata. Unfortunately it appears not a lot has been added to this document since 2016, I think? We at WQ rely on information contained in WD, but have little understanding of how WD works. Do you have any recommendations which can be posted to w:WQ:VILLAGE PUMP? Thanks in advance, Ottawahitech (discusscontribs) 18:23, 15 January 2023 (UTC) (ps sorry I am using the new tool for posting nd have no preview to see how my comment will render)[reply]
