Samuel_(WMF): I failed to notice this prompt back in September until now. However, I am still not able to make out heads and tails of what the bot has done. At any rate, thank you. jshieh (talk)
Sqid: Smithosnian page[edit]
Hi Markus Krötzsch: Thank you so much for providing tools like Sqid for displaying Wikidata in an end-user friendly view. I am fairly new in using the tool. I noticed there are crossed-out data for the Smithsonian Institution entity. Though, these statements are present in Wikidata repository. Since I was not able to find way to email directly from the Sqid page, I hope, by initiating a Wikidata Talk will eventually reach you concerning the representation of such data being scratched in Sqid? Thank you!

Citation[edit]
Do you have any citation for "Crow and egret" being a name for Go (Q11413) in English? I've been playing for about 50 years and never heard that, nor can I find anything online. (Please ping me when responding, I don't keep a watchlist on Wikidata.) - Jmabel (talk) 15:47, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, thanks for checking and I hope you read Chinese scripts, here is an article from Baike Baidu. In ancient time, Go game was called "
圍 獵 ” (Wei lie)=hunting, where white was referenced as Egret for its feathers (usually white) and crow's black. Go was also called "Fang yuan" (Square and circle) because it's played on a square board and the chess pieces are round. Unfortunately, there is no place to provide reference for <Also known as>. jshieh (talk) 16:40, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
