Hi Sherlock!
A good point to start is also
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:Contents.
Welcome & cheers,

Hi Sherlock,
It's a wiki. You get in there and edit the page, just like all the other
wikis.
Mismatches in data are quite common across projects, and Wikidata can help
with this. I often click on a Wikidata page associated with an article I am
working on to see the data side-by-side, and then I make changes
accordingly.

Hello everybody! Glad to join the team!
I'm a freshman to use the Wikidata, and face some confusions:
1. I though Wikidata gathered data from Wikipedia infobox, but I also find
that, the statements and infobox are not entirely corresponded. Some
infobox data are missed in statements and the Statements also have more
data than infobox. Then how does Wikidata actually create a new item?
What's the detailed process? If there are new or updated articles in
Wikipedia, how does Wikidata catch these updates?
2. I think there are more valuable information in Wikipedia but not
included in Wikidata, e.g. categories, infobox data. How can I enrich the
Wikidata? I know I may use & follow WikiData Bot's process, any directions?
Any suggestions or guidance are welcome!
BRs,
Sherlock
