Background
edit
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
edit
We are currently working on creating
clearer edit summaries when the edit stems from Wikidata
and is displayed on Watchlists and special pages such as Recent or Related Changes. Our goal is for Wikipedias to start adopting Wikidata edits in their recent changes and/or watchlist pages by default, due to the added value they provide.
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 leave comments or ask questions on the relevant Discussion pages:
