Looks like the wdqs proxy and frontend died, I restarted them :) Addshore (talk) 08:30, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

cannot add item

tried to create an item to add an instance of a wiki base install but it will not let me.--LauraHale (talk) 08:15, 31 October 2018 (UTC)

Sorry, the wiki is currently fairly locked down. I added you to the "Trusted" group as documented on the main page :) You should be able to change stuff now! You can also add others to the Trusted group now too! Addshore (talk) 15:01, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

Me too. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:50, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

I have also added you to the trusted group :) Addshore (talk) 11:51, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Me too. Physikerwelt (talk) 08:31, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

I have added you to the trusted group :) --Kghbln (talk) 20:54, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

What is the license

What is the license for contributions to this registry? Nothing at Project:Copyrights... Also asked via Telegram Podehaye (talk) 15:55, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

This is indeed an important and still open question. If unanswered on must assume copyright to avoid trouble. Cheers --Kghbln (talk) 14:39, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Clarified with this edit. --Kghbln (talk) 15:11, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

project chat; property Status

• There's no template "ping" so what can we use to notify each other?
• Is there a project chat here?
• Please add a property Status (eg active/passive)
• I wanted to edit the prop "main page" of Q13 to https://wikiapiary.com/wiki/Brickidata. I had to add it as a new value, then delete the existing value "unknown": why?
• How could I add properties?
• Could you add the Wikibase Registry logo as file favicon.ico, so I can distinguish when open in a browser tab?

Exploration feedback available in french

A detailed technical exploration of Wikibase install with Docker, and some explanations of the main features, are available in french : https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Jumtist/exploration_wikibase As suggested here, a link could be added somewhere on this page ?

Incorrect CAPTCHA answer about fingers

The CAPTCHA asks "How many fingers does a hand have + 1?" The supposedly right answer is 6, however to me this is incorrect because thumb is not a finger. Either it should be five, or (probably better) it should say "digits" rather than "fingers". GreenReaper (talk) 15:46, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Adding a new Wikibase

Hey, I'm currently developing a Wikibase for name authority and would love to create an item for it here. Could I be listed as trusted to do so? Thanks Jason.nlw (talk) 15:13, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
