Hi all,
Too many items on Wikidata still miss the basic statements. Perhaps we can
focus together for a short period of time on a single subject to get this
fixed.
For example: all items with instance of (P31) tourist attraction (like
museums) should also contain the country (P17) where it is

Hi all,
If you look in the recent changes, most items have labels in English and
those are shown in the recent changes and elsewhere (so we know what the
item is about without opening first). But not all items have labels, and
these items without English label are often items with only a label in

Also the list entity has a function. The function of *instance of* is to
identify what a page is about. A database is built on consistency, the list
entity does do that for lists. A list is a very special type of a subject

The main use of the codes is to test it in the Wikidata sandbox or in the

The basic reason for that is that there is no consensus about the usage of

Here I see a lot of articles in the section ''Other languages''. Most likely an
