Thanks to both you, Thad, and Denny, for your tips. I will be looking at EntitySchema in some detail for my work going forward.

Hi Mike!

A particular interesting schema is mine on Nobel Prize Winners.
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/EntitySchema:E126
Where it is well documented, has TODO's, and even poses questions within it's sections for the community to improve or answer further on it's discussion page.
To me, it's how all schemas should be developed, iterated upon, and open collaboration with the community. 
But collaboration on schemas could vastly be improved!
*IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTION:* Improve the collaboration on EntitySchema editing.  Extending the editor or building a new edit tool where the community can comment on a particular line, that automatically pushes to its Discussion as a topic, would be the icing on the cake.  The alternatives currently are folks using other platforms for collaboration like GitHub and opening issue for the various questionable lines of a ShEx.  It would be better to have collaboration entirely in Wikidata and utilizing Discussion tab integration.

    If you're interested in all new created schemas, you can actually
    follow a feed for that.

        Hello Mike,

        The category is not especially new, one can fill it every week
        on https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Status_updates/Next
        But it doesn't appear every week because I remove it when no
        one adds Schema examples.
        Basically, the idea is to add some interesting Schemas - not
        all the newly created ones, that would be too much, but any
        Schemas you find on Wikidata that you find especially
        well-described or interesting for the community to know about.

        To know more about EntitySchemas:Wikiproject Schemas

        I hope that answers your question :)
        Cheers,
        Léa

            Hi,

            Are not the 'Schema examples' a new category of reporting
            in this summary? Is there a wiki reference that describes
            this category more?

            Thanks!

            Best, Mike
