Hello everyone,

We're excited to let you know that starting this week, we are testing WikiProjects to have their own section in the Tools sidebar on Wikidata. This will help editors discover topic‑specific communities, find relevant resources, and connect with others working in the same area.

You can find the initial set of active projects linked in the sidebar on related Item pages:

- WikiProject Music https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Music - WikiProject Medicine https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Medicine - WikiProject Datasets https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Datasets - Wikiproject sum of all paintings https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_sum_of_all_paintings - WikiProject elections https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_elections

If successful, other WikiProjects will be added gradually in future updates, so if you're involved in a WikiProject or just curious to connect with other editors, keep an eye on the sidebar.

We would love to hear your thoughts: what works well, what could be improved, or any questions you might have. Please share your feedback on this talk page https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:WikiProjects or on Phabricator (T422936 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422936, T422935 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422935).

Cheers,
