this is the only thing my predecessors didn't do - please please please for the love of q, please work!

So I order something for about seven and a half Euros from an online store. And then they "offer" me, first, an additional two year guarantee for about 25 additional Euros, and second, a video call with someone to "advise" me on how to "install" the thing - a pair of earbuds, and not bluetooth- or WiFi earbuds, but plug-in ones - for an additional about 30 Euros.

Really, folks, if I had so much money that I could afford to simply throw away 30 Euros, I would have been seriously tempted to take them up on the video call offer, just to see what the "advisor" would have told me on how to install cheap plug-in earbuds.

I just found two Wikipedia articles in two different languages that describe the very same thing, but aren't connected to each other through the usual menus. How can I (or someone else) connect them with each other?

I tried to follow the instructions here (

I now followed the instructions for merging Wikidata objects, and it worked!
