WIT
Background
Wikidata for Wikimedia projects team is a Wikimedia Deutschland team created to support existing relationships and forge new ones between Wikidata and its sibling Wikimedia projects.
We work closely with editors, volunteer developers, and other Wikimedia product teams to optimise workflows, decrease redundancy and promote better integration of Wikidata's data in other projects.
We will specifically investigate and work on how Wikidata's data and functionality are reused across the Wikimedia sibling projects.
Some potential areas we could work in are:
- Finding ways to reduce technical complexity in workflows where Wikidata is being reused.
- Build new features that make new ways of using Wikidata in the other projects possible.
- Possible adoption and/or maintenance of user-scripts, gadgets, and community-created tools
Current Development Tasks
We are currently investigating the possibility to move the Wikidata data object to the "In Other Projects" section of a Wikmedia Project page menu.
Your feedback is important! We want to ensure our output does not disrupt your editing experience, interrupt your workflows, and is an intuitive and welcome change. To make sure of that, we want your feedback. Please visit the current task and visit the discussion page to leave your comments.
