Hello everyone,

We are excited to announce that the second iteration of the Wikidata online course for beginners will start on July 1. (You may recall the previous course that concluded at the end of May.)

This time, the course will be hosted on learn.wiki, which offers a better user experience than the previous platform. Learners can now log in using the same credentials you use for the main Wikimedia projects. Based on feedback from the first round, we have also made a few changes, including reducing the amount of content and streamlining the learning process. Other than that, the course structure remains the same.

📚 Course Structure

• Chapter 1: The Wikimedia movement and creation of Wikidata
• Chapter 2: Understanding Knowledgegraphs and Queries
• Chapter 3: Discovering Wikidata, open data, and the semantic web
• Chapter 4: Contributing to Wikidata, the Community, and Data Quality
• Chapter 5: Bonus Resources on Scientific Bibliography from Wikidata

Head over to Wikidata 101: An Introduction to enroll, and feel free to spread the word and invite your friends and colleagues to join us on this learning adventure!

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me directly.

Cheers,
