Hi Nicolas,
Still my biggest issues/hurdles for good data are
- capture of information from WS to WD — it just is hard work, WEF tool is still not sufficiently aligned
- the ever problematic inability to link WP book to WS edition through Wikidata
- that cannot capture information for Wikidata at archive.org, and relate that through to the file at Commons, and then the edition at Wikisource (or pick another starting point and interrelate0
- the inability to create an edition from a book/work, the inability to create a work from an edition
Maybe you can even ask what we need to improve to get bots to run through and autocapture, is our meta-data in headers not suitable? What is it that is problematic?
Thanks for asking.

Subject: [Wikisource-l] WikidataCon 2017
Hi all,
For information, the WikidataCon is this week-end in Berlin. While there is no talk nominatively around Wikisource, there is some intervention on relation subjects (
inventaire.io, WikiCite, German National Library, FRBR, and so on).
The event is sold out, but you can follow remotely some of the presentation (link will be added here :
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikidataCon_2017/Program/Remote ).
I'll be there and I'll be happy to talk about Wikisource, who else will be there?
Cdlt, ~nicolas
