WikidataCon 2019 - Wikidata and languages
Room: Kleist Duration: 55min
Abstract:

When it comes to language in Wikidata there are two key pieces to look at.

  1. the multilinguality of the data - being able to see and contribute data in your language.
  2. the lexicographical data part of Wikidata - collecting data about words in any language.

We've made great strides over the past 2 years in both areas. But how far have we really come? What works well and what doesn't yet? What's becoming possible? Let's find out!
