So incredibly helpful. Thank you so much! Also for correct capitalisation, Andy :)
I am aware of Research:Index and have used it in the past. Currently I'm only at initial concept note stage for a proposal but will be sure to share if we're given the green light to submit a full proposal (ah, the joys of academic research funding :)). Basically the project would be to make the case for how Wikidata has become critical digital infrastructure by mapping dependencies and topic coverage. No new research - really just bringing together what already exists and applying to an infrastructure studies approach.
Best, Heather.

I'm doing some research on WikiData and wondering whether there is a
list of
projects/sites that either a) make use of WikiData to power their
projects
or that b) WikiData extracts data from in order to populate items.
For the former, please see:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Wikidata_for_authority_control
and:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Spinster/Websites_and_ services_that_use_data_from_Wikidata
You can get an idea of some of the latter, from properties with a catalogue in Mix'n'Match:
but of course that is not the complete picture.
Can you tell us more about your research, please? And are you aware of:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Index
Finally, and pedantically, please note: "Wikidata", not "WikiData".
