Hello all,

I am excited to announce the next edition of the WikidataCon, taking place over three days from 31st October to 2nd November later this year.

Organised by Wikimedia Germany, this event celebrates the entire Wikidata Community in all of its aspects; editors, tool builders, patrollers, data reusers, members of GLAM and other organisations that use and contribute to Wikidata.

This year, the event format will be an
online-style conference with a full online-program that attendees can join and participate with program-content from anywhere in the world.

We also encourage local chapters and community user groups to organise in-person meetups alongside the event to bring people together and also celebrate Wikidata becoming a teenager for its 13th Birthday (October 29th).

What kind of sessions to expect at WikidataCon 2025?

  • Learn more about basic and advanced editing skills

  • Workshops, live-editing, games and discussions
  • Exchange tips and tricks with Wikidata experts
  • Discover community-built tools and gadgets
  • Hear about new WikiProjects and initiatives

In the coming weeks and months, we’ll be revealing more details on the program content, call for proposals, daily schedule, themes and program tracks. Please check Wikidata:WikidataCon 2025 regularly for more info.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to the organisers at
info@wikidatacon.org or by leaving a message on the event talk page.

Hope to see you all at WikidataCon!
