Other Noteworthy Stuff

- Great collaboration between a group of Flemish museums and art collections and Wikidata https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Flemish_art_collections,_Wikidata_and_Linked_Open_Data - Wikidata timeline https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-timeline/ is another tool that gives you nice timelines based in Wikidata's data (examples: American Sitcoms https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-timeline/#/timeline?title=American%20Sitcoms&query=claim%5B31%3A%28tree%5B5398426%5D%5B%5D%5B279%5D%29%5D%20AND%20claim%5B495%3A30%5D%20AND%20claim%5B136%3A170238%5D, Wars https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-timeline/#/timeline?title=Wars&query=claim%5B31%3A%28TREE%5B198%5D%5B%5D%5B279%5D%29%5D%20AND%20CLAIM%5B580%5D&widthOfYear=2, Meryl Streep https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-timeline/#/timeline?title=Meryl%20Streep&query=claim%5B161%3A873%5D%20or%20items%5B873%5D ) - Cool new tool by Magnus for dynamic list generation http://magnusmanske.de/wordpress/?p=354 - nlwiki has made great progress in getting down the number of articles not connected to Wikidata https://twitter.com/MagnusManske/status/648790530927800320 - The Museum of Modern Art website now includes Wikidata IDs (example http://www.moma.org/collection/artists/5078) - 50.79% of all #Wikidata items have none, one or two statements now. Next month it is likely to be less than half. Good progress! - Some more examples to get you started with Wikidata's query service: 1 https://twitter.com/Pyb75/status/648084172582617088, 2 https://twitter.com/Pyb75/status/647440739350220800, 3 https://twitter.com/Pyb75/status/648749003346214912
