Dear all,
MY-D, a Swiss foundation which is relatively new to the business of project funding, has published a call for projects for Wikidata showcase applications. Have a look and submit a proposal if (additional) project funding would help you develop Wikidata showcase applications: https://www.my-d.org/index.php/www-my-d-org/projectshttps://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.my-d.org%2Findex.php%2Fwww-my-d-org%2Fprojects%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR3z0SvK7Uh5PwDMKns6GBRq9_cNR3WPltzt6yTGLyVtNHFH8ijvrMS8IL4&h=AT3qMeD0a-0H6g3Ee0Cp0p8rqFe3fN-p-QGqp6ijBx3Id2QZ6uGA1yOMh9skEKWkA7ab0HaXix5GCQcMXZ81q9tmVWWDdYaAgLnxaJTc3QGGmyNQRGLXKkOuwdH0B4AF-Onx2QNgBbe8fV_WxL8
For an overview of existing applications in the area of GLAM, you may refer to an article I wrote at the occasion of Wikidata's sixth birthday: https://www.societybyte.swiss/.../how-wikidata-is-solving-it.../https://www.societybyte.swiss/2018/11/07/how-wikidata-is-solving-its-chicken-or-egg-problem-in-the-field-of-cultural-heritage/?fbclid=IwAR24qTCa2f9zGOl6mSoPIboAw8zvsTqclRFexXwLJ0rWcOQKeWGopLX6pSU
Please spread the word among people who might be interested!
Cheers,
Beat Estermann

Hello Beat,
While I thank you for your sharing links of potential value, is there a reason that you appear to be using tracking in your links, including tracking from Facebook? I'm not fond of links that don't go to exactly where the text says that they should go. I don't know whether the links as you sent them are in violation of WMF security or privacy policies for Wikimedia mailing lists, but at a minimum I think that using links that don't go to exactly where the text says that they should go is misleading and bad practice. I don't want, for example, Facebook to know who is clicking on links from a Wikimedia mailing list that, in my opinion, should go directly to a nonprofit organization's website without any tracking from Facebook or other third parties.
Sorry, my bad. I just copied the text over from my Facebook post and wasn’t aware that Facebook had substituted the links.
Cheers, Beat
