List of reports edit

We will create a report on those activities once we perform them. - Dani Fdez (talk) and José Labra (talk) 17:42, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • I wrote a report to community and organized a meetup where I shared experience about the event. --Papuass (talk) 20:38, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Wikidata+OSM at State of the Map 2019 and WikidataCon 2019" — Post at my OpenStreetMap diary. —seav (talk) 23:24, 15 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Note: I was supposed to conduct a small workshop on mapping/adding/improving Wikidata items about Philippine historical and heritage sites last November 16 during an event as part of Geography Awareness Week 2019, but due to Internet access problems at the venue, I just gave an impromptu lightning talk about Wikidata instead.
  • I organized two events and a data-a-thon is coming up. --Ranjithsiji (talk) 13:00, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • In our monthly meeting, we made a report of the event for our local community. Then Nicolás (Lahi) conducted a workshop about Wikidata and maps. --Juana de Arco (talk) 14:27, 17 December 2019 (UTC) | Lahi (talk) 14:29, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • We (members of the Brazilian user group) discussed the feedback of WikidataCon and made plans to consolidate and document our projects. Ederporto (talk) 15:00, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • We (Punjabi Wikimedians) celebrated Wikidata's 7th Birthday in November 2019. Also, I have shared my experience of this conference with participants. The report of this event can be seen here. Thank you. Satpal Dandiwal (talk) 21:14, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I wrote a report targeted to my Wikipedia community (Galician Wikipedia) hightlighting the most relevant projects, developments and tools discovered during the WikidataCon. In this report I address the questions collected during the Wikidata workshop held in February.
    • I've been working in parallel on two posts targeted to two associations of Wikimedia editors.
    • I applied my improved SPARQL skills helping one wikipedia user in her presentation at one university event regarding STEM and Gender Gap. Linked to that collaboration I intend to include a Wikidata workshop, focused on women biographies, during the event planned on the International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2020. Other recent contacts with another Galician university may allow to include a brief notion of Wikidata within the curricula of one university degree through a seminar during the first term of 2020/2021. I will create a report on those activities once they are confirmed.
    • In coordination with Estevoaei I've started a local Wikiproject that aims to create a showcase that will show how to edit the following Wikidata elements: works, publishers,series, editions, fictional characters and fictional places related to Galician literature. That includes the translation of the properties and elements needed and not displayed in Galician language. One of the goals is to be acquainted with ShEx and Schemas related to textual works.
    • During the second semester of 2020 I intend to impulse the Wikidata birthday event in coordination with A3gal, an association of editors and friends of Galician Wikipedia, and to harmonize the geographical data related to Galician administrative subdivisions in Wikidata, hopefully gathering Wikidata enthusiasts and local editors around a Wikiproject or a workshop. .--Maria zaos (talk) 00:03, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I shared what I learned about Wikidata's lexeme functionality with participants of the IT Hub Braunschweig Barcamp that took place in November blinry (talk) 11:25, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I shared what I learned during WikiConference North America (Boston, November 2019). This led Christine, a librarian from Harvard University, to depict the project I'm working on, "Women Writers in Review", in one of her slides during her presentation at the same conference. I am very grateful to have met Lucas Werkmeister at Wikidatacon as he has subsequently helped me with my project. --Rosiestep (talk) 23:49, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

How can I organize a follow-up event? edit

  • Organize a workshop to show a cool tool that you discovered during the WikidataCon
  • Hackathon to reuse data from Wikidata
  • Write a blog post summarizing what you learned during the conference
