Hello all,
The Wikidata and Wikibase ecosystem is a huge galaxy of exciting content,
tools, projects, powered by the communities as well as organisations
working with the software and the data. For seven years, people are
gathering, starting projects, developing tools, improving the editors'
workflows, filling various gaps, working all together to give more people
more access to more knowledge.
The *WikidataCon Award 2019* will reward the greatest projects in a variety
of categories. The awarded projects are selected by the WikidataCon Award
committee, based on nominations by the community. Everyone is invited to
participate and nominate one or several projects. The nomination process is
open until *October 7th*.
What we mean by *project*: a project can be a community gathering or other
initiative that led to great results (WikiProject, event, editathon…), a
tool (gadget, script, external tool…) or any other action that led to
improving Wikidata’s data, the workflow of its editors or the outreach.
