At the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health we are working on
incorporating our datasets into Wikidata. One of the benefits of this is that
it allows for translation of our content with less effort, since the
relationships ("X causes Y") are language neutral and people only need to
translate the terms ("X" and "Y").
We are looking into working with international partners to translate Wikidata
entities of interest to us. To monitor progress, and to provide a list of terms
that need to be translated, I created this Wikidata translation dashboard:
http://tools.wmflabs.org/niosh/wdtranslations.html (takes a while to load due
to lousy JavaScript). That report is based off of a very specific Wikidata
query (the items in our area of interest -- in this case, chemical hazards),
plus the labels for entities featured on those items. This tool also compares
coverage of a language to English, since that is the baseline in our specific
case. Other than that, you could think of this as a starting point for
developing a Wikidata translation tool.
