Hi, everyone --
Over the summer and into the early fall the LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.wikidata.org_wiki_Wikidata-3AWikiProject-5FLD4-5FWikidata-5FAffinity-5FGroup&d=DwMFaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=ZKZdijZcvSwDlmLpUMf9GVdOigjGjnqPOHQla31EGfM&m=jM1hWFEmWKReCftpVy_UPY3hxapUjHtkNZBtxqfj46TQCsvp_F_KHtmFkRLCeK3c&s=C734A6Cb-BXeYFde_srPzAGkrx2GESMgBNiympLtJrg&e=> is offering a series of Wikidata Working Hours<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.wikidata.org_wiki_Wikidata-3AWikiProject-5FLD4-5FWikidata-5FAffinity-5FGroup_Wikidata-5FWorking-5FHours&d=DwMFaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=ZKZdijZcvSwDlmLpUMf9GVdOigjGjnqPOHQla31EGfM&m=jM1hWFEmWKReCftpVy_UPY3hxapUjHtkNZBtxqfj46TQCsvp_F_KHtmFkRLCeK3c&s=xE-btG9CNQ9beSXJVXMpS857X5CV-zVyxiAITTwhBx8&e=> to give folks an opportunity to try out various Wikidata-related skills and tools by adding data about diverse children’s books<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__ccbc.education.wisc.edu_literature-2Dresources_ccbc-2Ddiversity-2Dstatistics_&d=DwMFaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=ZKZdijZcvSwDlmLpUMf9GVdOigjGjnqPOHQla31EGfM&m=jM1hWFEmWKReCftpVy_UPY3hxapUjHtkNZBtxqfj46TQCsvp_F_KHtmFkRLCeK3c&s=OopnYt5zbyai30M0LdJaVC4drDCSzcOOTTRa4Gxpkag&e=> from the Cooperative Children’s Book Center at the University of Wisconsin, Madison to Wikidata. Wikidata Working Hours provide hands-on Wikidata experience in a supportive space. We hope you will join us if you are interested in learning more about Wikidata, love children’s books, or have been looking for a fun Wikidata project to contribute to. The seventh Wikidata Working Hour in the series will be a review session of creating contributor and publisher items in Wikidata. The primary goal of this session is to generate as many contributor and publisher items as we can in advance of the two following sessions which have to do with batch editing -- we want enough to make a good batch! We will review how to add items, but then reserve the bulk of the session for open editing, kind of like a mini-editathon. As noted below, you can check out our series project page if you’d like to review any of the sessions before this one so you’re ready to jump in and edit. Naturally, participants can ask questions and share thoughts at any point during the editing. You do not need to have attended the previous Wikidata Working Hours in the series to attend this one. If you would like to review any of the recording/material from the previous sessions, you can access the event pages on our series project page<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.wikidata.org_wiki_Wikidata-3AWikiProject-5FLD4-5FWikidata-5FAffinity-5FGroup_Wikidata-5FWorking-5FHours_Wikidata-5FWorking-5FHour-5FSummer-2DFall-5FProject-5F2022-23Past-5FWikidata-5FWorking-5FHours&d=DwMFaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=ZKZdijZcvSwDlmLpUMf9GVdOigjGjnqPOHQla31EGfM&m=jM1hWFEmWKReCftpVy_UPY3hxapUjHtkNZBtxqfj46TQCsvp_F_KHtmFkRLCeK3c&s=32xPGo1jHvU5uxjNL6541A8FjMqt55hxXH5XI_XKcKE&e=>.

You don’t have to attend every session to benefit from the series, but attending whenever possible will offer the best experience in terms of applying skills and tools to a single data set. We’ll also record the demo portions of each Working Hour, so you can always catch up on anything you miss.
