*Accessing Wikidata’s data from code*
The Wikidata team at Wikimedia Deutschland is interested in making it
easier for people who write code to use Wikidata’s data in their own
applications and tools.
Thus, we would like to learn more about the people who have accessed
Wikidata’s data from the code of their own applications and tools. We will
use what we learn to improve the ease of access and usefulness of the ways
in which we provide the data.
The participation is anonymous and there are no required answers. The data
will only be shared in an aggregated form.
----------------------------------
*1. How experienced are you with accessing Wikidata’s data from code?*
Accessing data means using e.g. the API, SQL, SPARQL or dumps to access
Wikidata’s data
Please answer with 1-5 where 1 is "I know nothing about this" and 5 is "I
am an expert in this"
Answer: _
*2. How experienced are you with accessing data from code in general?*
"in general" means that this is about experiences on working with data of
any project or product, not just Wikimedia ones. "Accessing data" means
using e.g. APIs, SQL or web scraping
Please answer with 1-5 where 1 is "I know nothing about this" and 5 is "I
am an expert in this"
Answer: _
3. How much experience do you have in using these technologies for
accessing data in general?
"in general" means that this is about experiences on working with data of
any project or product, not just Wikimedia ones. With "Mediawiki API" we
mean the so-called "Action API":
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page

Hello all,
The Wikidata development team is currently doing some research to
understand better how people access and reuse Wikidata’s data from the code
of their applications and tools (for example through APIs), and how we can
improve the tools to make your workflows easier.
We are running a short survey to gather more information from people who
build tools based on Wikidata’s data. If you would like to participate,
please use this link
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfJ-I_Ib2EOuRVG4XfeUazhXTvgKsjcKhAa2eauibSsNM_EwA/viewform?usp=sf_link>
(Google Forms, estimated fill-in time 5min). If you don’t want to use
Google Forms, you can also send me a private email with your answers. We
would love to get as many answers as possible before June 9th.
The data will be anonymously collected and will only be shared in an
aggregated form.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me directly.
Cheers,
