Hoi, What we use is "catalog" "Black Lunch Table". It has qualifiers for the place of the editathon. This allows us to subset the data. We only maintain the data once. We have subsets for women only and for the people near Toronto..
As to the data; it is maintained in Wikidata and it is shown in any Wikipedia. So the same data can live in multiple Wikipedias and will be updated daily or manually. As and when required. One set of data for all purposes..
PS We could have a subset for BLT people who are also a member of "Alpha Kappa Alpha".. or studied at Harvard. That is the power of query. Thanks, GerardM

Listeria makes auto-updating lists on pages, based on a SPARQL query. The question is whether you have a common characteristic to catch all
your items, since eg Category is not it (no such prop on WD).
I'm confused about the example that the category is not a property of
Wikidata. Is it not a query-able property in SPARQL to generate this type of output?
Right: there’s no property Category. See these discussions https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/ Archive/30#category https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/ Archive/30#useful_for
After creating the Wikidata item for Visual artists of the African
diaspora, I started adding that category to artist Wikidata items –
- as well as a Commons category if they had media.
So if I run a SPARQL query using category it won't generate results?
Did you add it as “item’s main category”? That’s incorrect, since that’s inverse of “category’s main item”, and a category is supposed to have a single main item (e.g. page France vs category France).
I'm confused because the other suggestion was to tag items as of
interest to Black Lunch Table. The category seems to be functioning in the same way, not very different.
How did you tag “of interest to”?
One other question: is the task list on Listeria usable on Wikipedia
pages, or does it need to live in Wikidata's area?
You can put it on any wiki page, eg a Wikidata discussion or project page.
