Hello Lydia,

I wrote a text with explanation, why, what, where, etc to inform the Dutch community about the long wanted change at: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:De_kroeg#Vooraankondiging:_Verhuizing_ster-icoontjes_in_interwikilijst_naar_Wikidata

Another short announcement is placed at: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mededelingen

Greetings,
Romaine


(tech ambassador for the Dutch projects)

Hey folks :)

Just an update on badges support on Wikidata. We will be rolling out
support for badges on Wikidata on August 19th. At this point you will
be able to store the information that a given article is a good or
featured article on English Wikipedia for example. More badges can be
added on request. One week later we will enable showing those badges
on Wikipedia/Wikisource/Wikiquote in the language links in the
sidebar.
If your Wikipedia wants them to be removed from the wikitext please
get in touch with Amir. He has a bot to do it for you.

You can try out the Wikidata-side of it on our test system:
https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Q296


Cheers
Lydia
