Wikipedia:Uploading metadata to Wikidata

This is an information page. It is not an encyclopedic article, nor one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines; rather, its purpose is to explain certain aspects of Wikipedia's norms, customs, technicalities, or practices. It may reflect differing levels of consensus and vetting.

QuickStatements can be used to upload metadata (such as area and population figures about populated places) to Wikidata. Templates such as {{Wikidata}} can be then used to retrieve the figures locally and feed them to fields in templates such as {{Infobox settlement}}.
