Hi, just to let you know that there is no purpose in adding the |qid= parameter to an article because it will be ignored, and automatically use the Wikidata item attached to it. The only purpose of |qid= is for drafts in Draftspace or Userspace, which are not attached to any Wikidata item. Thanks — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:08, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I couldn't initially tell whether the 'pedia article was already linked to the wikidata item. I suppose this means that the link comes from the wikidata side, when a wikipedia.org URL is associated with the item. MiseDominic (talk) 16:26, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia, MiseDominic!

[edit]

I'm Tesseractic and I want to welcome you to Wikipedia!

Wikipedia is an amazing community adventure which is constantly being edited. There are many different versions of Wikipedia for many different languages, and the English version has 6,917,267 articles which are written by volunteers like you and me! We even have a newspaper, The Signpost, to keep you up to date with news and new developments. Making your first steps on Wikipedia can be hard sometimes, so if you need any help, don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page or ask a question on your talk page by clicking here. Someone will help you soon!

Wikipedia has five pillars which summarise Wikipedia's fundamental principles:

  1. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia
  2. Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view
  3. Wikipedia is free content that anyone can use, edit, and distribute
  4. Editors should treat each other with respect and civility
  5. Wikipedia has no firm rules

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
Thank you for your hard work adding infoboxes to Mississippi and Louisiana rivers. Magnolia677 (talk) 22:25, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of rivers of Louisiana, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vermilion River. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
