Hoi, Next month I will be presenting a half a day meeting in the Netherlands for a big GLAM partner. This presentation will likely be repeated for other GLAMs in the Netherlands at a later date.
I have a tentative program for half a day. I will present about Wikidata, I will show information that already exists for both artists, works of art and institutions. I will demonstrate Wikidata, Reasonator, WDQ.
One of the things that we will cover is how to add information from their databases to Wikidata. They are very much into movies, actors, television etc.
My question to you. What would you like to see covered in such a workshop / presentation. What emphasis would work for you best. Thanks, GerardM

Authority control [*].
Geo-tagging/ coordinates.
Adding tags to objects in OpenStreetMap, linking back to Wikidata.
The usefulness of Wikipedians-in-Residence (in the wider sense, "Wikipedian" simply being a more easily understood label for a role covering sister projects, including Wikidata, and the wider open- movement).
We need GLAMs to make suggestions for features/ properties they'd find useful in Wikidata.
Good luck with the presentation; or, rather, "break a leg!""
[*] As an aside, please invite and encourage every attendee to register for an ORCID identifier http://orcid.org, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ORCID (and to put it on their Wikipedia and Wikidata user pages, if they have them)

P.S. I have just proposed an "accession number" property for Wikidata, which may also be of interest:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/Unsorted#Accession_...
Cool idea on the accession number.
I'd like to get a simple (cough "dummies guide") on how to use Wikidata in general (it's went through epic changes since I first fiddled with upon launch), and perahps a workshop on how we can use this for GLAM professionals - meaning I'd like to see a chance for us to be presenting at conferences on how to use this tool.
Thanks Gerard for taking up this much needed task!

Sarah and already covered my ideas. I would only add, would it be possible to have a video recording of your presentation so that we can share it with interested people and GLAMs?
Thank you.

+1 to the video - especially since many of us will most likely not be at your presentation!

I don't think it is necessary, we alredy have "catalog code": https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P528

That is for "the catalogue name of an astronomic object".
Please remove the alias you have just added to it.

Wikidata advertising efforts in direction of GLAMs are really welcome to my opinion. Having more information about famous artists, works or institutions in Wikidata would be great. Nice to see you putting resources in that project.
The point I would like to see treated: How/When will Wikidata (technology) be used to store Commons content (pictures/videos/sounds) metadata? This is probably the most important point for our GLAM program.
