Good morning

Good morning, my friend. After weighing your honor, I want to know how to link the article's data on Wikidata. I know how to add data, but I want to know how to link the article to Wikidata, please. Jimmy Yelzer (talk) 07:49, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

@Jimmy Yelzer: The tricky part is finding the Wikidata item that matches the article - once you've done that, you add the link to Wikipedia as a sitelink (see the boxes at the bottom or right, depending on your screen width). You might also be interested in playing this Wikidata game, which also demo's how to add the links (check your contributions after playing). Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 17:50, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
Good morning, thank you, my friend. Greetings and appreciation to you. Jimmy Yelzer (talk) 04:18, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

The redirect Template:Infobox Small, Medium, or Large Lump of Rock, Gas, or Ice, possibly Spherical, that May (or May Not) be a Planet has been listed at redirects for discussion to determine whether its use and function meets the redirect guidelines.

Good morning

Good morning, my friend. Good morning. I have a problem with the wiki. I have a page. I couldn't do a box with my information or my data. Watch this page.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Mohamed_Alagha


See this other page, there will be an information box that I created


https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Al-Agha_Company

I ask you to search to see where the problem is. This is the first page. Every time you enter an information box, it does not work. What is the reason and what is the solution? Jimmy Yelzer (talk) 07:39, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

@Jimmy Yelzer: I suggest you ask questions like this at commons:Commons:Help desk, so others also see this and can help you quicker. You need to connect the Commons category to a Wikidata item, after that the infobox will be automatically added in a day or so. However, you need to be careful when creating categories about yourself or things that are connected to you, see WP:COI for example. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 07:01, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Good morning

Good morning, my friend, what happened? Look and tell me, or understand me Jimmy Yelzer (talk) 07:13, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

@Jimmy Yelzer: I replied above, see User_talk:Mike_Peel#Good_morning. I suggest you ask questions at commons:Commons:Help desk. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 07:20, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Please do not introduce inappropriate pages, such as Template:Infobox Small, Medium, or Large Lump of Rock, Gas, or Ice, possibly Spherical, that May (or May Not) be a Planet, to Wikipedia. Doing so is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been deleted. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion Review. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 12:20, 19 March 2023 (UTC)

It was created back in 2007, not sure about speedy deletion! ;-) But yes, not the type of redirect I'd create nowadays. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 09:04, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
Dear brother, can you help me? Jimmy Yelzer (talk) 07:35, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

My friend

My friend, where are the pages nominated for deletion, because I want to make a discussion because it is from my free work and it took a lot of effort, and you have my sincere greetings Jimmy Yelzer (talk) 08:16, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Ask at the help desks, not here. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 08:29, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

good evening my friend

And see here too, he says, "I'm a world lock to me, because he offended Karim, my brother, because there's foul play going on, and I want you to get my rights in all of this."
