Hello all,
I'm very excited to share with you the upcoming event that we are organizing: *Data Reuse Days https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Events/Data_Reuse_Days_2022*, a series of online sessions that will take place from March 14th to 24th.
During this event, we would like to highlight some great *projects and applications that are powered by Wikidata's data*, and discuss with their creators about the workflows they use, but also the challenges they may have encountered on the way, how they interact with the Wikidata editors, and how we could find ways to give back to the project and improve the data quality together.
We also want to present various *tools that allow people to retrieve, query, analyze and display data from Wikidata*, and we want to use this event as an opportunity to get more people onboard with using Wikidata's data, inside or outside the Wikimedia projects.
Building on the previous events we tried with this format (30 Lexic-o-days and Data Quality Days), this event is taking place online, with a very flexible program, where speakers and facilitators can schedule a session at any time during the ten days of the event. The sessions can be presentations, workshops, lightning talks, discussions, live-coding, editathons, and most of them will take place on the open videocall platform Jitsi.
The schedule is still under construction, and will evolve until a few days before the start of the event: you can already check the scheduled sessions on this page https://diff.wikimedia.org/event/wikidata-data-reuse-days-2022/, and we will add more on the way. If you are interested in presenting something during the Data Reuse Days, you can make a proposal directly on the talk page https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Events/Data_Reuse_Days_2022, or reach out to me directly, so we can discuss the details together. We are especially looking for proposals presenting tools and workflows to build an application using Wikidata's data, examples of use of Wikidata's data on other Wikimedia projects, as well as discussions about data reuse or data quality.
If you have any questions or suggestions for the event, or if you would like to help, feel free to reach out to me. I will certainly give you updates closer to the event when the schedule will be populated.
Cheers,
Hello all,
A follow-up about the Data Reuse Days https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Events/Data_Reuse_Days_2022, online event dedicated to the use of Wikidata's data that will take place on March 14-24. We already have *a pretty exciting schedule https://diff.wikimedia.org/calendar/month/2022-03/?tribe_tags%5B0%5D=13446* with plenty of projects reusing Wikidata that will be presented, as well as discussions on best practices to retrieve data and workshops related to the use of Wikidata on Wikipedia and Commons.
We are still looking for community contributions, and it is not too late to propose something for the event! We are especially looking for sessions related to the *use of Wikidata on the other Wikimedia projects*, lexicographical data, your favorite tools to retrieve and reuse Wikidata's data, as well as *practical, hands-on workshops or editathons* to make the program more interactive and give people the occasion to gather and try using data for their projects.
We have plenty of time left in the two *lightning talks sessions*, on March 14 and March 21, and we also dedicated the two week-end days, March 19 and 20, to community sessions. If you have any ideas or suggestions, or if you would like to schedule a session, feel free to write on the talk page https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Events/Data_Reuse_Days_2022 or to contact me directly.
Cheers,
Léa
