Hi Jinoy,
Thanks a lot for organizing another India related datathon on the occassion
of 8th birthday of Wikidata. I am sure that the external identifiers will
be used much more than before after the event.
Best wishes,
Bodhisattwa

Greetings to all,
The celebration of the 8th birthday of Wikidata has already started and as
part of it several events are currently happening online and offline across
the world. As part of it, a 5 days long data-thon is planned to improve
India-specific Wikidata Properties and celebrate Wikidata's Birthday by
contributing to the free open data movement.
The primary objective of this "data-thon" is to add / improve the usage of
Wikidata Properties related to India in Wikidata. Currently there are 76
India-specific properties available in Wikidata. But most of the properties
are used less in numbers in the statements. So this data-thon is organised
to improve the usage of those properties in items and improve the
structured data in Wikidata.
We hope to encourage participation from other Wikidata communities.
Please have a look at the event page[1] and please consider joining the
editathon.

End time - October 29, 2020 23:59 IST
