Hello, Lucas Werkmeister (WMDE). Welcome to the Wikimedia Meta-Wiki! This website is for coordinating and discussing all Wikimedia projects. You may find it useful to read our policy page. If you are interested in doing translations, visit Meta:Babylon. You can also leave a note on Meta:Babel or Wikimedia Forum if you need help with something (please read the instructions at the top of the page before posting there). Also worthwhile acquainting yourself with the functions of global user pages. Happy editing!

Property:P2580 - ExternalUse - inconsistency
[edit]https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Property_talk:P2580&action=edit
ExternalUse currently has
- lvwiki: lv:Veidne:BBLD
- ru:Шаблон:BBLd, ru:Внешние ссылки
- uk:Шаблон:BBLd
- de:Vorlage:BBLD
- et:Mall:BBLD
- fr:Modèle:Dictionnaires
Could you fix that description?
- Delete "lvwiki: " it is already implied by "lv:"
- Switch BBLd to BBLD for ru: and uk: (in case of uk: the BBLd is not even a redirect)
- Sort alphabetically
So, it would be
- de:Vorlage:BBLD
- et:Mall:BBLD
- fr:Modèle:Dictionnaires
- lv:Veidne:BBLD
- ru:Шаблон:BBLD, ru:Внешние ссылки
- uk:Шаблон:BBLD

[edit]I'll take a look at your suggested item next week. Thanks for adding it, whether it belongs or not – we rather remove ten things, than miss one because people are afraid to add them. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 15:39, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
