The FactGrid primarily wants to be a research body. The attraction in the structure between the GND and Wikidata to run such an instance lies primarily in the fact that the "no original research" clause falls on its "relevance criteria". We allow data to be published for the first time in the resource and are more interested in the listing of primary sources such as archival material than in providing information from an already published source.

If a research project is to record infant mortality in a historical location, there is nothing in our instance against biograms about people, of whom no more than ages, surnames and locations as well as dates have been handed down.

In the FactGrid, relevance means relevance for the research project that collects the data. At the same time, it is important that the research projects that generate the data gain contours on the platform and that - as is customary in the scientific field - named persons represent their own research interests.

Make your own research project visible in the Directory of Properties"

The project area identified for this can be found in the menu under:

Here you should write down larger projects in order to provide clarity about incoming data - we will generate individual project areas for a larger number of projects to ensure clarity.

Run your own project pages in the factGrid project namespace

Set up your own project area for your own research project and subdivide it as required To briefly present your project in the project directory, you can open sub-pages at any time, in which you present your project as you wish, and on which you can present search results or coordinate work steps of an staff. The " Gotha Illuminati Research Base " provides the first sample with individual such pages - on search offers, on those involved , on projects .

It is important that pages that you open for your project begin with FactGrid and colon ("FactGrid: My project"). Without the specific assignment, the reference to the "namespace", which can be searched separately, is lost.

Link your own "FactGrid Research Item" of your project to data objects

Each editing process is versioned in detail in the Wikibase instance with date and editor link. For each item, property and page there is a version history (under the tabs on the right) that lists the editing processes chronologically - an important feature that allows you to say precisely when they published a finding in the FactGrid, but an insufficient, when it comes to showing your own work in the database.

Datasets are also assigned to research projects in the FactGrid. Item: Q2080 is a typical database object . With property: P131 "this FactGrid data set was enriched by", the research contribution is assigned to the data set on a project-specific basis:

 Item: Q11305 : "Hermann Schüttler / Reinhard Markner, research on the correspondence of the Illuminati order (1998-2007)."

The data set for this item is complex: It names the authors, the project supervisor, the science funding involved and the publications that were created in this project.

A database query can now be used to record the individual data records to which the project contributed - the option with which the project participants can present this part of their work to the sponsor.

If you contribute to a research data object in which another project is already claiming research work, simply add your own "research item".

Position a specific thesis in the FactGrid

If you make a controversial change in the state of research with a statement that you make a database object in the FactGrid, but have not published your question independently, you can open a database object for your thesis.

In this case, refer to Property: P196 "Recital" to a separate item that you generate for your thesis and for which you specifically claim authorship. Assign statements to this item as follows:

Property: P2 "is a" " Item: Q22848 " FactGrid Thesis " Property: P21 "Author" - link here to the personal data record (or, if you work in a team, to the authors. Property: P106 "Date" - write down the current date with which you have just made the thesis public. Property: P99 "Thesis" - give a brief summary of your thesis here After this preparation, use the discussion page of the item to go into detail. The page should offer you space to explain your thesis in more detail. Secondly, you should put a "Discussion" heading under which others in the database can comment on your claim if you are interested.
