Hi all, I've had a lot of interest (during workshops, etc) about the potential of Wikidata, both from librarians and from researchers; there's a general sense that it'll be very interesting, but no-one's quite sure what they'll be able to do with it :-)
We'll be having a Wikidata session at GLAM-Wiki, but of course not everyone is happy to come along to a short session on a Friday afternoon as part of a larger conference. To get around this, I've organised an introductory workshop at the BL on 26th April, 2-5pm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:GLAM/BL/Wikidata All welcome - my targeted audience is librarians & digital-humanities types, but if you're a Wikimedian who's interested in figuring out what's going on with the new project, please do come along! Conversely, if you're comfortable using/understanding Wikidata, and you'd like to come along and help me *give* the workshop, please do let me know :-). I'm reasonably comfortable with talking about it, but I'm aware there are some gaps... Thanks, - Andrew. -- - Andrew Gray [email protected]
