 Welcome to Data Doctor's Video, Suggestion 567, Double Entry in Wikidata. This is Part 1, Incorrect Profile. Just what is Wikidata? It's a free site that stores information from Wikipedia, Wikisource, Wikitree, etc. It can be read and edited by anyone. Here is a sample page showing Byzantine Emperor Maurice. Scrolling down, there is an identifier section which lists different sites with Maurice's biography. Wikitree is listed here. Suggestion 567 is generated when two Wikitree profiles are noted on a Wikidata page. There are three reasons this might happen. First, one of the Wikitree links is in error. Second, the links go to the same profile, meaning a merge has already been affected but not corrected on Wikidata. And third, two profiles for the same person need to be merged on Wikitree. This video discusses the first reason. There is an incorrect profile showing on Wikidata. Here is the public view of Nicholas Pino's profile. The biography is well written and well sourced. However, it has generated suggestion 567. Before continuing, check for other suggestions. The suggestions report for Nicholas Pino has two. However, for this video, we are only interested in the first one. That suggestion shows his Wikitree ID number and to the right, his biographical information. Below that is information for Pino 64, the second profile in question. Determine if these profiles need to be merged. Click on the compare link. The following screen gives a side-by-side comparison. Consider the dates and relationships for both profiles. Nothing matches and a merge is unwarranted. Return to the suggestions report and click on the queue number. This takes you to the Wikidata page in question. In the identifier section, Wikitree shows two entries. One is for Pino 63 and the other for Pino 64. Nicholas Pino, Pino 63, is the subject of the Wikidata page, so his link should remain. The link for Pino 64 needs to be removed. Anyone can do this as long as they have an account set up on Wikidata. It's free. Click on the edit link for Pino 64. A few choices show up. Publish, remove, and cancel. Click remove. Wikidata now shows only one profile from Wikitree. Return once again to the suggestions report and on the far right, click on status. On the suggestions status page, make sure your Wikitree ID is showing. Next, select a status, in this case, corrected. Leave a comment. You can choose one from the comment hints or make your own. I chose to make my own. Click the update status button. The next screen shows the status history has recorded your changes, making them available for others to see. And you're done.
