@ainali @wikimediaDE I don’t see how you would arrive at the consensus that tools of relevance to the Wikidata community wouldn’t be notable enough to be included in Wikidata. Clearly they are sui generis notable to a significant number of people. In addition they easily satisfy the following criterion:
> It refers to an instance of a clearly identifiable conceptual or material entity that can be described using serious and publicly available references.
End-of-week "fun" with #SPARQL & #tidyverse: Checking whether #CoVID had/has an impact of the life expectancy of (famous/relevant) people listed in #Wikidata.

Was just watching a recording of the second day of #Wikimania in #Nairobi and happened on a #Wikidata presentation. A member of the audience suggested a tool registry to be implemented on top of Wikidata during the Q&A. As comments are disabled for the recordings (on YouTube), I would like to mention our modest effort at building exactly such a tool registry for the #DigitalHumanities.
The project website can be found at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_DH_Tool_Registry

heute etwas #bookstodon content im @schwarzPhotoBot https://mastodon.social/@schwarzPhotoBot/114992087106289658 
Die Buchhandlung befand sich im Alexanderhaus, ich vermute an dieser Stelle: https://maps.app.goo.gl/8uHfRWspvQD4nRKdA
Die Informationen zur Buchhandlung habe ich in einem #wikidata Item zusammengefasst. Gerne ergänzen (insbes. Start- und Endzeitpunkt, Adresse etc.): https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q135669944
Aber vielleicht hat ja noch jemand Erinnerungen aus erster Hand oder bessere Quellen?

Coordinate Me 2025 war ein von Wikimedia Österreich organisierter internationaler Wikidata-Wettbewerb rund um Geodaten – von Dörfern und Krankenhäusern bis hin zu öffentlicher Kunst und Naturdenkmälern.
Ziel war es, Wikidata-Datenobjekte mit Geodaten zu verbessern oder neu zu erstellen, und zwar in bestimmten Schwerpunktländern und -regionen.
Mehr Infos zum Wettbewerb gibts auf unserem Blog:

@stuartyeates ah, I am glad you ask :)
I have a solution I have been working with, the Citation Typing Ontology, see https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/tag/cito
Specifically, with #wikidata examples, check these posts:

Bei der #Wikimania2025 in Nairobi hat @nightrose, Wikidata Portfolio Lead, Tools vorgestellt, die mit #Wikidata gebaut wurden – teilweise von ehrenamtlichen Entwickler*innen – zum Wohle der Menschheit. 
Die Anwendungen helfen z. B. in der Wissenschaft. Zum Beispiel mit dem Tool Paulina, dass kompat Informationen zu Autor*innen bündelt und so einiges an wissenschaftlicher Arbeit sparen kann. 
Interesse? Hier gehts zur App: https://zurl.co/N7Pal
#KDE Itinerary just got showcased by @nightrose at #Wikimania2025 in Nairobi for its #Wikidata use: https://youtu.be/WaWk6hNGRrk?t=1043s
Toujours étonné par les organisations qui remettent des prix mais ne maintiennent pas de liste sur Internet. Le cocktail serait-il le plus important ? 
Du coup, je vais reconstituer la liste des lauréats du Prix Haussmann décerné par la FNAIM depuis 1975. https://w.wiki/ExJK

@wikidata Lydia talking about challenges in #Wikidata #Wikimania
Continued thread
it covers a good number of helper scripts that enrich your @wikidata experience. Some I already know, like the script to duplicate an item, or the one that converts URLs into external identifiers.
But the video shows quite a few more cool #wikidata scripts to quickly add more references and external identifiers to Wikidata items

For anyone who's wondering about this (#)interview you can find the interviewee Lydia Pintscher (Q18016466)
on the fediverse!
The Wikidata item also shows this as data:
Mastodon address = nightrose@mastodon.online
COOL STUFF!
https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q18016466&oldid=2383120340
If you liked what you learnt why not give Lydia a follow?
Stephen Harrison ain't on the fediverse so no way to give a follow to him.

commendable...
By personal experience I never "understood" Wikipedia...but I perfectly understand data in Wikidata.
It's easy to add, just recently I added some founders of NodeBB(which got ActivityPub and thus fediverse support)
If anyone needs any help with wikidata just ask me.
I'll be happy to help you learn how to use Wikidata and I'll answer any questions you may have.
a good interview about #wikidata .. I'm a big fan of it and occasional contributor. I often suggest to laypeople that they make a wikidata profile about someone who doesn't have a #wikipedia article, even if it seems daunting to create an article to someone who has never done it, the wikidata record will make a placeholder and potentially lead to someone else making an article later.
