Welcome to Wikidata, Skume84!
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!

Subclasses and instances
[edit]Hi, it was agreed earlier in WikiProject Chemistry that chemical compounds are classified using instance of (P31) not subclass of (P279). I don't think that this is the best way to do this, but until the proper classification of chemical compounds is discussed and agreed, using instance of (P31) is more coherent and it'll be easier to change is automatically or semi-automatically in the future.

Hi, @Wostr:. Thanks for your kind suggestion and efforts in WikiProject Chemistry. Exactly, I agree that the chemical compounds, I understand as "the items of specific chemical compound name" such as acrylic acid (Q324628) and Polyphenyl ether (Q7226747), should be currently classified using instance of (P31), not subclass of (P279). From now, I try it and I'll re-edit the mistakes. If you find something mistakes, please let me know them in the future. Skume84 (talk) 12:38, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
Hi, @Wostr:. I changed Polyphenyl ether (Q7226747) using instance of (P31). Please check it. Skume84 (talk) 12:42, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
In addition, I am checking both class names in Japanese and English, but sometimes the Japanese name/meaning is close to the chemical group name. If this is the case, I will consider it carefully. Skume84 (talk) 13:06, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
