Dear all, we are working on a research proposal about integrating Wikidata with research workflows: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Wikidata_for_research . This already includes two GLAMs, and we are in discussions with a third one to join in. In any case, we are taking a lot of inspiration from GLAM-wiki collaborations, and comments/ edits from this community would be most welcome!
