Can anyone tell me how to remove an incorrect link to Wikidata in the sidebar of an article? The article [[Belsize House]] links to a Wikidata item that is about a different structure in a different place, and as far as I can tell there is no Wikidata item for the particular house that the article is about (though there are items for other Belsize Houses). In addition to the link's being incorrect, it's causing the infobox to display a Mapframe map for Wikidata's Belsize House rather than the article's one. (If it would be better to ask this question at the Help Desk or VP/T, let me know.) [[User:Deor|Deor]] ([[User talk:Deor|talk]]) 14:18, 26 August 2023 (UTC) |

In the "using wikidata in Wikipedia articles" section, under parsing data, it says that using the statements function doesn't returns a link if the link is a redirect. The example itself is untrue, as calling for that Egyptologist data will indeed return a redirect link to Egyptology (as clearly shown around 2 lines later...). Is the whole statement untrue, or is there some qualification missing? Either way, it needs to be edited. <span style="background:#636363;border:solid#636363 1x;border-radius:15px;">'''[[User:JoeJShmo|<span style="color:#ffadbe">Jo</span><span style="color:#dbafff">e</span><span style="color:#afd0ff">J</span><span style="color:#aafff8">Sh</span><span style="color:#b6fcd5">mo</span>]]'''[[User talk:JoeJShmo|<sup><span style="transform:rotate(25deg);display:inline-block;">💌</span></sup>]]</span> 21:20, 26 July 2024 (UTC) |

== Using getAllStatements == |

On [[Module:Authority control]] we are currently reading the Wikidata item of an article about 150 times for each separate identifier using <code>getBestStatements</code>. I am wondering if it would be more efficient to extract all the statements in one go using <code>getAllStatements</code> and then process them with Lua.

:I removed the link to the Wikipedia article on Wikidata, so the article should no longer fetch the incorrect information. What I did was go to the Wikidata item (by pressing "Tools" > "Wikidata item"), then scrolling down to "Wikipedia", pressing "edit" and then removing the link from there. I think it's also possible to suppress the data in the infobox directly, but it's better to fix the error on Wikidata. [[User:Jhvx|Jhvx]] ([[User talk:Jhvx|talk]]) 15:01, 26 August 2023 (UTC) |

The article says "From a Wikipedia page, you can go to the link "Wikidata item", using "Tools" in the side panel" but my interface does not show the "Wikidata item" link.

Greetings. Is there any suggestion for testing or sandboxing infoboxes pulling out wikidata properties, please? See, for example, [[Template:Infobox physical quantity/testcases]]. Thanks. [[User:Fgnievinski|fgnievinski]] ([[User talk:Fgnievinski|talk]]) 04:36, 6 November 2023 (UTC) |

"Wikidata item" link is missing from side panel "Tools"

I am using an ipad in desktop mode, default skin. I worked around this problem by making the desired change on the Wikidata website but surely I am not the only person having this problem?
