I take Wikidata

Wikidata 2 years old

Wikidata is best known through its stats

It gains labels and statements all the time

Labels make Wikidata useful in a language

Statements are seen in any language

It started with interwikis

We really know about the subjects

Wikipedia cover

Google is our friend

Seeing Wikidata

Plain vanilla Wikidata is only for entering data

Reasonator helps you understand the data

There is a gadget

Red links, categories, disambiguation pages

and search

Wikidata has the best information

Only Reasonator SHOWS information (not data)

Wikidata search is available to any WMF Wiki

Tools

Reasonator

WDQ

AutoList

ToolScript

The point is that we leverage Wikidata

and Wikipedia to suit our NEEDS

Personal Wikidata

I use the Reasonator gadget

I have added 1.5 million edits through Autolist

I use ToolScript every day to register death as we know it for 2014 - 10.200+

We know about 1400+ categories and their content through Reasonator

Yes, I make errors … sadly no more than any other

What I do

I register death and check for relevant

categories

I define what the list is about in Wikidata

I check the content in Reasonator

I add missing articles of the category

using AutoList (multiple languages) !

I verify that the new data gets there

15 minutes later it is there for all to see

What nl.wikipedia can do Enable Wikidata search

This allows us to share in “the sum of all available knowledge”

It invites people to add labels making Wikidata even more Dutch

Consider its category content; we can show / not show categories as a personal choice

We could show red links in categories

We could check disambiguation using Wikidata

Future history

Commons will be wikidatified

So will be all media files…

Creator and Institution templates can be highly known in Wikidata

Images of creators and institutions could be shown already…

Both Wikidata and Wikipedia intend to share the sum of all knowledge, they complement each other
