Greetings, everyone –
Over the summer and into the fall the LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_LD4_Wikidata_Affinity_Group>
will be offering a series of Wikidata Working Hours
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_LD4_Wikidata_Affinity_Group/Wikidata_Working_Hours/Wikidata_Working_Hour_Summer-Fall_Project_2023>
to give folks an opportunity to try out various Wikidata-related skills and
tools by assembling a data set of diverse library and information science
(LIS) materials (articles, conference proceedings, books) and adding it to
Wikidata. Wikidata Working Hours provide hands-on Wikidata experience in a
supportive space. We hope you will join us if you are interested in
learning more about Wikidata, exploring LIS literature, and have been
looking for a fun Wikidata project to contribute to.
The seventh Wikidata Working Hour will cover the Author Disambiguator
tool, which helps users assign authors to articles. During the session we
will demonstrate how to use the tool on an author who was created during a
previous working hour, and another who doesn't exist in Wikidata yet. After
the demonstration, participants are encouraged to try the tool themselves
during the rest of the working hour. This session will build on the work
done in previous Working Hours by connecting authors to the articles they
have written.
Date and time: Monday, November 20th, 2023 at 10:00am PT / 1:00pm ET /
18:00 UTC / 7:00pm WAT / 7:00pm CET (Time zone converter
