Thanks for sharing the ARL whitepaper Merrilee. I've shared it with my colleagues in
the national library of the Netherlands, to foster awareness op Wikiata.

Hello everyone! Just a quick update on Structured Data on Commons deployments.
You may have noticed that we haven't deployed Depicts statements yet yesterday, and
this is due to an unrelated bug.
The release has been rescheduled to upcoming Tuesday.
Cheers! Sandra

Unfortunately the release was blocked by an unrelated bug [1], and must be rescheduled.
Releases are not done on Fridays, so the team has \rescheduled for Tuesday, 23 April from
15:00-16:00 UTC [2]. I'll continue to keep the community posted as release
approaches.

Greetings,
(This message is also posted at the Commons Village Pump, and the SDC
talk page)
The Structured Data on Commons [0] team plans to release support for
depicts statements this week, on Thursday, 18 April. The community's
testing over the past several weeks [1] helped identify and fix
issues before launch, and the development team spent time setting up
extensive internal testing to make sure the release goes as well as possible.
This release is very simple, with only the most basic depicts
statements available. There is a significant amount of technological
change happening with this project, and this release contains a lot
of background change that the team needs to make sure works fine live
on Commons before adding further support. More parts to depicts
statements, and other statements, will be released within the next few weeks.
A page for depicts has been set up at Commons:Depicts [2] As I can't
actually write instructive Commons policy or guidelines, I encourage
those who have tried out simple depicts tagging add a few lines to
the page suggesting proper use of the tool. I also encourage the use
to be conservative at first, as we wait for more advanced features
within the coming month or two as additional statement support goes live.
I'll keep the community updated as the plans progress throughout the
week, the team will know better within the next day or two if things
are definitely okay to proceed with release.
