Ijon

I'm Asaf Bartov. See my user page on Meta for general information about me.

What I do here

I edit Wikidata manually, as well as through tools like The Wikidata Game, PetScan, and QuickStatements.

Wikidata for Absolute Beginners

I also teach Wikidata, giving talks such as this Gentle Introduction to Wikidata (video).
