Hello everyone,
This is a friendly reminder that the workshop https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Small_wiki_toolkits/Workshops#Writing_Wikidata_queries_using_the_WDQS_tool starts in ~5 hours time (UTC 16:00).
Correction: The previous message pointed to the wrong etherpad doc. The correct link is here https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/swt-wikidata-queries. The description should have also read: *"This workshop will cover aspects of using the Wikidata Query Service, with some discussion of ways in which Wikipedias can take advantage of its capabilities for their own improvement."*
See you soon!

Hello everyone,
The seventh workshop on the topic of "Writing Wikidata queries using the WDQS tool" is coming up - it will take place on Tuesday, August 30th at 16:00 UTC. You can find more details on the workshop and a link to join here https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Small_wiki_toolkits/Workshops#Writing_Wikidata_queries_using_the_WDQS_tool [1].
This session will focus on how to access and save information to Wikidata, including through page generators and queries++, using pywikibot. It will also cover the Wikidata conventions about bot-editing, including the bot approvals process.
To participate in this workshop, you would need basic familiarity with Wikidata and Pywikibot installation. You can add your discussion ideas on the etherpad doc https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/swt-wikidata-pywikibot-scripts.[2]
We look forward to your participation!
Thanks.
