Hi Mike!

A particular interesting schema is mine on Nobel Prize Winners.
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/EntitySchema:E126
Where it is well documented, has TODO's, and even poses questions within it's sections for the community to improve or answer further on it's discussion page.

To me, it's how all schemas should be developed, iterated upon, and open collaboration with the community.
But collaboration on schemas could vastly be improved!

IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTION:  Improve the collaboration on EntitySchema editing.  Extending the editor or building a new edit tool where the community can comment on a particular line, that automatically pushes to its Discussion as a topic, would be the icing on the cake.  The alternatives currently are folks using other platforms for collaboration like GitHub and opening issue for the various questionable lines of a ShEx.  It would be better to have collaboration entirely in Wikidata and utilizing Discussion tab integration.

If you're interested in all new created schemas, you can actually follow a feed for that.

There's a link to the atom feed on the left hand toolbar.

Hello Mike,

The category is not especially new, one can fill it every week on https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Status_updates/Next
But it doesn't appear every week because I remove it when no one adds Schema examples.
Basically, the idea is to add some interesting Schemas - not all the newly created ones, that would be too much, but any Schemas you find on Wikidata that you find especially well-described or interesting for the community to know about.

To know more about EntitySchemas: Wikiproject Schemas

I hope that answers your question :)
Cheers,
Léa

Hi,

Are not the 'Schema examples' a new category of reporting in this summary? Is there a wiki reference that describes this category more?

Thanks!

Best, Mike
