Hello all,

Since the WikidataCon is an event designed for and by the Wikidata community, the program of the conference is open and all the attendees can suggest ideas, talks and workshops to be included.

The deadline for proposing projects is July 31st, next Monday. After that, the program committee will review, select and organize the projects to fit in the schedule, and announce the final program around September 1st.

If you want to participate to the program and make sure that the WikidataCon contains the topics you want, it's time to submit one or several proposals! A lot of different formats are possible: talk, workshop, demo, lightening talk, round table, discussion, request for comment, meetup, hackathon, sprint...

You can find a list of ideas here. You're welcome to choose one of these topics and make it yours. We have for example:

• demo all the useful tools for Wikidata,
• an overview on how Wikidata is used in Wikipedia,
• some thoughts about the community (how do you deal with vandalism?),
• discussions about ontologies and data model,
• showcase of a successful project,
• meetups for thematic projects... and many more.
