Dear all,
we are working on a research proposal about integrating Wikidata with
research workflows:
.
This already includes two GLAMs, and we are in discussions with a
third one to join in.
In any case, we are taking a lot of inspiration from GLAM-wiki
collaborations, and comments/ edits from this community would be most
welcome!
Thanks and cheers,
Daniel

Hi Bob,
in Germany we have only started to invite GLAM institutions to join the
Wikidata community. Yet as far as I know, no institution has committed
themselves to collaborate on a regular scale. But the interest is high as we
can see when offering information on Wikidata on conferences. See this
enthusiastic tweet a week ago.
best regards

Hi folks,
This past Sunday WikimediaNYC had the opportunity of training on Wikidata,
courtesy of user emw. His slide presentation is here:
http://www.slideshare.net/_emw/up-and-running-with-wikidata
His nutshell summary: Wikidata is a way to bring structured data to
Wikimedia projects.
Although I knew a little about Wikidata already, his presentation and
personal revelation ("I almost never edit Wikipedia now; all my editing is
on Wikidata") convinced me that I have to be more active on Wikidata (at
least now I know how to begin being more active).
So I'm wondering whether there are any GLAM projects that regularly
undertake Wikidata editing/integration as part of their activities.
Other suggested activities from WM/NYC meeting are listed here:

If you've never done any Wikidata, I highly recommend the Wikidata Game:
