Hi everyone,

This is a short update on the Wikidata support process review we started last year.

As a reminder, our goal is to improve the way we (the Wikidata development team at Wikimedia Germany) currently support the Wikidata community with collecting and reacting to bug reports and feature requests.

Based on your feedback, we have been working on incorporating your inputs into redesigning the Wikidata:Contact the development team page. We suggest changing its name to make it less focused on the development team and a central place for all discussions about technical issues on Wikidata, where editors are welcome to help answer and support others. We introduced sub documentation pages so that it’s hopefully easier to navigate bug reports, and we will work on a better integration of multiple languages.

You can already have a look at Wikidata:Report a technical problem (it’s a draft page, still in construction)

We invite you to let us know if you feel like something important is missing by leaving a comment on this talk page by June 10th.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Cheers,

Mohammed Sadat
Community Communications Manager for Wikidata/Wikibase
