Hi everyone,
The next Bug Triage Hour will take place online on Monday, April 15th 16:00
UTC (18:00 Berlin).
The topic of this session will be *Mobile Statement Editing*.
What is the Bug Triage Hour?
It’s an online event where the product managers of Wikidata publicly work
on triaging development tasks (typically on Phabricator), improving their
descriptions, defining their priority, and collecting the wishes and needs
from the Wikidata community.
- The session is taking place on Jitsi:
https://meet.jit.si/WikidataBugTriageHour
- Notes are taken on Etherpad:
https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/WikidataBugTriageHour
- Preparation: bring your favorite Phabricator task!
See you soon!

Hello everyone,
We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Wikidata Open Online Course -
a fantastic opportunity for anyone eager to explore the world of Wikidata
and enhance their editing skills.
🌟 About the Course
The Wikidata Open Online Course is designed to simplify learning how to
edit Wikidata through a structured online program in English. Originally
developed in French by Wikimedia France, the course content has been
updated and translated into English. Whether you're a beginner taking your
first steps, an individual in need of a refresher on Wikidata concepts, or
a seasoned trainer looking to level up your skills - this course is right
for you. Participants will gain insights into how Wikidata works, its
rules, its vibrant community, and how to contribute effectively.
📚 Course Structure
-
Chapter 1: The Wikimedia movement and creation of Wikidata
-
Chapter 2: Understanding Knowledge graphs and Queries
-
Chapter 3: Discovering Wikidata, open data, and the semantic web
-
Chapter 4: Contributing to Wikidata, the Community, and Data Quality
-
Chapter 5: Bonus Resources on Scientific Bibliography from Wikidata
⏰ Course Schedule
This program will be offered in iterations, the first of which will start
on April 22 and last for 5 weeks. Be sure to register before that.
Subsequent iterations will be scheduled later, so don't worry if you're not
able to take this one. Make sure to watch the landing page, and we will
announce them on our usual communication channels as well.
Don't miss out on this opportunity. We encourage you to spread the word and
invite your friends and colleagues to join us on this learning adventure.

Hello everyone,
The Wikidata Leveling Up Days
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Events/Leveling_Up_Days_2024> are a
series of online events and a collection of useful contents to help people
get on board with Wikidata. The events will take place from April 5th to
7th and from April 12th to 14th, and will include a wide variety of
presentations, workshops and discussions covering the basics of Wikidata:
get started, browse and query Wikidata, enhance your editing experience,
ensure data quality, and connect Wikidata with sister projects.
The event will give the occasion to both new and seasoned editors to get
together and exchange ideas and tips. Some sessions are already planned in
the schedule, but the program is open: community trainers and organizers
are welcome to schedule their own self-organized sessions, at the time that
suits them best, and in the language that would be accessible to their
peers. If you’re interested in scheduling your own session, you’ll find
guidance on this page
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Events/Leveling_Up_Days_2024/Get_inv…>
.
The Leveling Up Days are also a collection of introduction videos, recorded
in advance with experienced Wikidata editors, that will soon be available
online. We will make sure that the videos are available ahead of the event,
so people can watch them at their own pace. The videos will include
translatable captions, so you will be able to help us make this useful
content accessible to a wide range of Wikidata newcomers.
The online event is open to everyone without registration, but if you’re
interested in attending, feel free to sign up here
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Events/Leveling_Up_Days_2024/Partici…>.
You can also join our help desk channel
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Events/Leveling_Up_Days_2024/Help_de…>
where we will have Q&A sessions.
And last but not least: please help us reach out to people who may be
interested in learning more about Wikidata: feel free to share or transfer
this message to the channels, mailing-lists and groups where it could be
relevant.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me.
See you around at the Leveling Up Days!
Best,
