Add topicNotability
[edit]Thank you for contributing to Wikidata. I see that you recently created an item Q116390027 that does not clearly indicate its notability. The Wikidata project only accepts items that meet its notability criteria, and your item is therefore likely to be deleted soon. In brief, items must have an associated Wikipedia article, must be needed for statements on another notable item, or must have both identifiers and serious sources. For the last case, a good indication of notability would be multiple articles about the subject in independent publications like newspapers or magazines. You can add such sources as references to specific claims using reference URL (P854), or as top-level claims using described at URL (P973).
Also, this may not apply in this specific case, but you should know that we discourage editors from self-promotion, contributing on topics with which they have a strong personal connection, as this may present a conflict of interest. If you are being paid to edit here, then you are obliged to disclose this. For a longer version, you might find it useful to read the essay "How to create an item on Wikidata so that it won't get deleted".

- Hello Bovlb,
- Thank you for your earlier message.
- I would like to clarify that the SCC case items include the following:
- P1031 (legal citation of), providing the official citation
- P1433 (published in), referencing Ghana Law Reports
- Ghana Law Reports is a formal law report series that independently publishes and curates Supreme Court decisions. These cases are therefore not unpublished internal court documents but reported decisions in an established legal reporting source.
- Given that the items:
- Represent officially decided Supreme Court cases
- Are published in an independent law report series
- Include structured legal citations
- I would appreciate clarification on what specific notability criterion you believe is not met.
- If additional identifiers, contextual links, or references are required, I am willing to improve the items accordingly. My goal is to ensure they fully align with Wikidata standards.
- Thank you for your guidance. —Sunkanmi12✉️ 05:56, 5 May 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks for following up. I don't normally include P1031 in the set of properties that demonstrate notability, but I'm going to give it a careful review. I have unblocked you. Bovlb (talk) 14:00, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

Did you know?
- Query examples: Latin American Cinema / Films with an English or Portuguese Wikipedia page, but not Spanish
- Schema examples: (E422) 'Golden age of illustration' book from the Maastricht University Library collection.
- Newest WikiProjects:
- Project Schlaraffia - for enriching items about the German-language fraternity Schlaraffia (Q1305789) and its international and local associations.
- Project Tamil Nadu dedicated to creating and improving Wikidata content related to Tamil Nadu (Q1445) and Tamil (Q5885).
- WikiProject Highlights: Project PCC EMCO Wikidata CoP added a subpage for listing Properties normally associated with Corporate bodies.
Development
- Mobile statement editing: We are continuing with UX fixes. This is primarily visual polish and consistency as well as fixing bugs related to RTL display.
- Wikibase REST API:
- We are finishing the support for creating Lexemes and the statements on them.
- We are continuing working on support for adding Forms to a Lexeme.
- Wikidata integration in the other Wikimedia projects:
- We are going to stop sending language link changes to the first few wikis. An initial deployment to group1 wikis is now planned for Monday, 05.10.2026. (Click group1 on this Toolforge page to see which Wikis are included.) This will help reduce noise in Watchlists and Recent changes and help reduce the size of the database table holding recent changes on these wikis.
- Connecting a newly created Wiki to Wikidata is a manual task, we are automating that and optimising the SitesTable at the same time, making a 'single source of truth' that all wikis point to, rather than a table per Wiki that are all clones of each other.
- We are experimenting with raising the entity usage limit on wikis. If this is feasible, we can reduce the amount of bundled changes. This would reduce the quantity of Wikidata-triggered Recent Changes rows being created.
