It's been amazing to see the interest in WikiData games here at Wikimania and i've been approached by a number of people who've wanted to create them. From label creation to data validation there have been many ideas of how to engage users in new and creative ways. I'm curious to hear from users on this list and beyond about interest in a WikiData games app that would facilitate simple and quick contributions. The idea would be that the app would act as a simple frontend shell that would allow anyone to interact with WikiData games to create, curate, and validate content. Putting aside the difficulties of dynamic custom user content with the app I'm curious about the interest in this. I know that that mobile web team is already planning a handful of experiments with this and I'm eager to see if some of you would frequent an app that collected these and empowered users to contribute in ways that doesn't exist yet.
