This is awesome news - we in the Language Engineering team are looking at extending translate this year for content translation! So lots of room for collaboration.
Congratulations again to the WM.DE team.
Best, Alolita

Hi everyone,
I'm happy to let you know that Yandex, an internet company from Russia, made a donation of 150000 Euro to Wikimedia Deutschland for further development of the core of Wikidata. It's great to see more companies stepping up in not only using Wikidata but actively supporting its development. The official press release is at https://www.wikimedia.de/wiki/**Pressemitteilungen/PM_06_13_** Wikidata_Yandexhttps://www.wikimedia.de/wiki/Pressemitteilungen/PM_06_13_Wikidata_Yandex
Wow! I hope in the future they're also interested in collaborating on an open source translation memory project: we already use their machine translation service in Translate (enabled on translatewiki.net but not Wikimedia projects).
