Welcome to Wikidata, Trygve W Nodeland!

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!

Serhiy Arbuzov

Hi Trygve. Thanks to your pointer, I've merged Q12000014 into Q1711587 (and deleted the orphaned talk page afterwards, which was just cleaning up, not originally meant to let your contribution disappear). If you want to do that yourself next time, see Help:Merge for some information how to merge items. --YMS (talk) 21:12, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Surnames

Hello. It would be appreciated if you created clean items for surnames: with instance of (P31) family name (Q101352) and native label (P1705). With these two propertie{{s, we can add automatically the labels, descriptions and other properties needed to make complete, clean items. Without, it's violating the constraints on family name (P734). It's more important to add the properties than the descriptions: we can deduce the descriptions from the properties but not the other way around. Thank you. --Harmonia Amanda (talk) 07:35, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

@Harmonia Amanda: OK, sorry for your trouble.--Trygve W Nodeland (talk) 17:35, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

Otto von Bismarck

You gave him a father more than hundred years younger. Is that intended vandalism or a mere mistake? Perhaps you better straighten it out by yourself. And you know, that this data goes into some hundred wikipedias and into commons?--Kresspahl (talk) 07:59, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for your friendly reminding. I will straighten i out, as you put it. And thank you for your trust, giving me the benefit of the doubt whether I have had intentions of vandalism or not. I have more than 45 000 movements on Wikipedia i Norwegian, and yet to vandalise anything, intentionally. --Trygve W Nodeland (talk) 08:58, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Dear Kresspahl. I am so sorry that I followed your suggestion, I should not have done that. Ferdinand von Bismarck is of course not the father of Otto, but another person. His parents does not have items on WD. Will not happen again! --Trygve W Nodeland (talk) 15:02, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

;-) How about trying new items?--Kresspahl (talk) 19:10, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Jens Stoltenberg

Praksisen på statsministerbeskrivelser er at man skriver Norges x statsminister. Jeg ser ingen grunn til å ha dette annerledes på Stoltenberg. Jeg mener også at det er unødvendig å skrive politiker og statsminister fordi det sier seg selv at han er politiker når han har vært statsminsiter

OK, men er det ikke også en regel om at beskrivelsen bør begynne med liten bokstav?--Trygve W Nodeland (talk) 13:41, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Jeg mener egentlig det, men ser ut til at alle statsministerbeskrivelsene er med stor bokstav. Det er jo også et egennavn som ikke skal skrives med liten forbokstav. JOestby (talk) 13:51, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Jeg vil tro at det skyldes uvitenhet mht regelen om liten bokstav. Man kunne ha skrevet den 34. statsminister i Norge, deretter NATOs 13. generalsekretær, eller sløyfet den. Trygve W Nodeland (talk) 13:54, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Man kan gjøre det, men da bør man gjøre det på alle. JOestby (talk) 14:16, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Ja, men det er vel bedre at det er en riktig og resten feil, enn at samtlige er feil? Trygve W Nodeland (talk) 14:18, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Ja det er vel det. JOestby (talk) 14:21, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
