Hello everyone, Since 2019, it is possible to add structured data to files on Wikimedia Commons [1] (SDC = Structured Data on Commons). But there are no very advanced and user-friendly tools yet to edit the structured data of very large and very diverse batches of files on Commons. And there is

Re: [Wikidata] Wikidata reconciliation service and Ope Refine

+1 from someone who would be so extremely happy (and much more productive) if such a service were implemented in OpenRefine. I also added it as a task to Phabricator, feel free to comment, add suggestions… https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T146740

Re: [Wikidata] Terms - search for corresponding WD-item and WP-article

Re: [Wikidata] From the game to the competition

[Wikidata] staying mutually up-to-date with external authority sources was: Re: Duplicates in Wikidata

This exchange with VIAF/OCLC is only one case. We are increasingly becoming a hub for authority sources/files/records, and staying mutually up-to-date with them is (IMHO) really important. And indeed, we don’t have reliable tools/workflows in place yet to take good care of this… I haven’t
