==Wrong "Wikidata item" link==

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)

: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)

Access from Wikipedia = untrue

Where do i find the link on the new deisgned wikipedia website? can the "Access from Wikipedia" paragraph reflect both, the old design and the new design? 149.219.220.103 (talk) 11:31, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've remove the note that the sidebar is on the left side, because on my skin this is now on the right side. But for some people, it may still be on the left side. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:32, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Linking to Wikipedia articles in other languages?

Would it be possible to use Template:Wikidata to get links to a specific wikipedia language. For example, I have a list of 100 locations in Iceland, I have the wikidata ID number for all of them and I want to list them in a table with links to the English and Icelandic article. I've started experimenting with it here User:Steinninn/sandbox Steinninn 01:17, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
