Hi everyone,
Some exciting news here. The Open Data Awards' finalists lists were recently published on their website. Wikidata has been listed as a finalist in two different categories which are the Open Data Innovation Award and the Open Data Publisher Award. Lydia http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Lydia_Pintscher_(WMDE) and Magnus http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Magnus_Manske will be representing Wikidata at the gala dinner where the winner of each category will be announced live. I will be standing in as a backup should Lydia be unable to attend the award dinner but let's wish Lydia and Magnus a good time and keep our fingers crossed that Wikidata will win at least one of the two categories we've been nominated for. As Lydia would say - the entire community is awesome for working to help build Wikidata to where it is and this is as much as all of our work as it is the development team's for helping build and innovate the way free knowledge is shared within the mission of the Wikimedia Foundation.
Thanks,
John Lewis
Yay! Congratulations!
