User talk:Molliemch
Welcome to Wikidata, Molliemch!
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!

- Thanks Bobv! I am sorry it took so long to set up a proper user page. I've been editing and making new pages for a few months now and appreciate feedback! Molliemch (talk) 20:42, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
Notability of businesses
[edit]Hello. I have noticed that you are a self disclosed paid editor. I have reviewed a bunch of the items you have created and many of the businesses are not notable. I suggest you read Wikidata:Notability. Businesses without articles on Wikimedia projects will generally qualify under criterion 2. Specifically criterion 2 requires "serious and publicly available references". Having a website, social media profiles, or listing on business directories (like Cruchbase) is usually not sufficient as serious sources.
Over time creating large numbers of non-notable items may result in your account losing editing privileges. If you have questions about notability and Wikidata policies, you can start those discussions at Wikidata:Project chat. --William Graham (talk) 20:01, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
- Hello,
- Yes, I am a paid editor for tomtom, as part of a large Point of Interest product we add to our maps. I have added new pages when a brand is missing a Q page.
- In the beginning I was told to add crunchbase and facebook, in particular.
- I will review the 'notability' section, per your request.
- Kind regards,
- Mollie Molliemch (talk) 21:22, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
