#Wikidata guided tours

#Wikidata has guided tours. They are nice. They help newbies understand what it is all about and yet..

I find that knowing too much does not help. There are all those details that I want people to know about.. The #Babel effect on the number of languages with labels shown for instance.

In the guided tour descriptions are explained.. I HATE descriptions, they are vastly inferior to auto descriptions.. Check out the screen print; no description in sight but these auto descriptions do translate to all other languages.

Really, it pains me that I find fault at these very much needed guided tours. The truth is that I would not  do it differently.
Thanks,
