About

This page collects my notes related to WikidataCon 2019, whose program sits at Wikidata:WikidataCon 2019/Program.

Motto

While the official theme was "Wikidata & languages", a few other memes, themes or mottos came up that resonated with me, e.g.

• "Giving more people more access to more knowledge - every day".
• "Arrive with an idea, leave with a community" (that one was actually from MozFest)
  • once more

Media files

Video recordings

• Most of the sessions were live streamed and recorded, all by the Chaos Computer Club Video Operation Center (Q72532123) team, which covered two other events in parallel.
• The streaming was provided via https://streaming.media.ccc.de/wikidatacon2019 .
• The recordings sit at https://media.ccc.de/c/wikidatacon2019 .

Notes

Sessions I am / was following remotely

Most of these have collaborative notes, to which I am contributing.

Sessions whose recorded videos I plan to watch

Essentially, this likely includes all recorded sessions, but nothing wrong with some prioritization.

Remote attendance

I attended WikidataCon alongside Biodiversity Next, RDA Plenary 14 and MozFest, so I experienced these four events almost as one, and the discussion about remote attendance came up in several contexts.
