{{warning|When adding an infobox using data from Wikidata, please &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;check for consistency&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; with the article and its references, and to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;address the inconsistencies observed&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, which can be done by amending the article or the Wikidata entry, or by supplying a better value to the infobox as a local parameter if this is what emerges from the sources.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{tl|Infobox scientist/Wikidata}} may be used to summarize information about a person who is a scientist, medic, engineer, mathematician or (scientific) academic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This template may also be used as a module (sub-template) of {{tl|Infobox person/Wikidata}}; see [[Wikipedia:Infobox modules]] for guidance on such usage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This version of {{tl|Infobox scientist}} retrieves various parameter values from Wikidata if enabled (&amp;quot;opt-in&amp;quot;), but only in the absence of a locally supplied value. The template calls [[Module:Wikidata]] and [[Module:WikidataIB]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It allows editors at the article level to blacklist various fields so that they do not display. This makes a positive statement that those fields are unsuitable for inclusion in that article&amp;#039;s infobox.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Usage ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Basic ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Infobox scientist/Wikidata&lt;br /&gt;
| qid=Q5561586&lt;br /&gt;
| name=Gilean McVean&lt;br /&gt;
| onlysourced=no&lt;br /&gt;
| fetchwikidata=ALL&lt;br /&gt;
| noicon=false&lt;br /&gt;
}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just use:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{infobox scientist/Wikidata | fetchwikidata=ALL}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
and you should get a Wikidata-filled infobox! (Providing the article is linked to a Wikidata entry containing relevant information!). This will by default only fetch information that is sourced on Wikidata. This is an important safeguard for BLPs. The subject&amp;#039;s current age (or age at death) will be calculated automatically provided that the dates are sourced and full (i.e. 12 January 1958 not 1958).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General example ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{Infobox scientist/Wikidata&lt;br /&gt;
 | suppressfields=occupation children&lt;br /&gt;
 | dateformat = dmy&lt;br /&gt;
 | noicon=false&lt;br /&gt;
...&lt;br /&gt;
}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This will prevent the infobox from displaying the fields for occupation or children. {{para|noicon|false}} will unsuppress the pencil icons instead of a single &amp;quot;edit on Wikidata&amp;quot; link at the bottom (see McVean, right).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Parameters ==&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

|-&lt;br /&gt;
| suppressfields || allows a blacklist of fields that may be displayed in this infobox; overrides whitelist; defaults to none&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| onlysourced    || rejects Wikidata that is unsourced or only imported from a Wikipedia; values: yes/true/1 or no/false/0; defaults to yes&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| noicon    || should the pencils be shown false means they should, default is they should not (&amp;quot;on&amp;quot;)&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| list    || Should multiple items be shown in a list format (use value &amp;quot;ubl&amp;quot; for un-bulleted list) or comma separated (default)&lt;br /&gt;
