This is so great potentially for local face-to-face Wikidata networking, and in so many other ways.

Hey folks :)
Have you ever wondered what is happening on Wikidata around you? What does Wikidata know about the building next door? Or the tube station a few blocks away? Now you can find out. Head over to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Nearby and you will know. This is another piece in the puzzle to making it easier to get an overview of the data you care about.
Share if you find something cool and unexpected around you!
Cheers Lydia
