Greetings, everyone –
Over the summer and into the fall the LD4 Wikidata Affinity
Group<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_LD4_Wikidata_Af…
will be offering a series of Wikidata Working
Hours<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_LD4_Wikidata_Af…
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 sixth Wikidata Working Hour in the series will cover batch editing items using
OpenRefine.
Date and time: Monday, October 23rd, 2023 at 10:00am PT / 1:00pm ET / 17:00 UTC / 6:00pm
WAT / 7:00pm CEST (Time zone
