Hello!
Hope this finds you well. I am teaching Lexicography to junior university
students this semester. What are ways I can incorporate Wikitionary in the
syllabus?
The idea I have now is to make them complete a project on Wikitionary by
adding entries to it. I think it would be awesome for them to see their
project alive and not buried in heaps of paper in my drawers.
Your input is highly appreciated.
Best,
Reem

Subject: [Wikidata] WikidataCon, the conference for open data enthusiasts,
will take place in Berlin in October 2019
To: Discussion list for the Wikidata project. <wikidata(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hello dear Wikidata community,
After the success of the first WikidataCon in 2017
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikidataCon_2017> and many
conversations regarding the future of this conference, we are now ready to
announce that the WikidataCon 2019 will take place on October 25th-26th
2019 in Berlin.
Apart from this first piece of information (save the date in your
calendars!), there are some important changes regarding the goal of the
conference that we would like to share with you.
After its first iteration, the goals of the conference will evolve. The
event will be more focused on networking and strategic discussions. The
target group will of course include the Wikidata community in its broad
sense, especially people and organizations who are already involved in
editing, structuring and reusing the data, but will also reach further the
organizations who may be interested in using Wikidata and Wikibase, or
contributing in various ways to the evolution of Wikidata.
The program will be adapted to this new goal, and organized around
different levels of involvement for the participants: from being inspired
(with keynotes, success stories, vision of Wikidata’s future) to diving
deeper into the hot topics, but also action: the participants will have the
opportunity to work on projects during the conference.
Besides many possible topics that will be submitted by the participants, we
plan to have a dedicated track about lexicographical data, discussing the
perspectives for further reusing data about words within and beyond
Wikidata.
A lot of space will be left for discussions, networking, building
connections between the different stakeholders and members of the broad
Wikidata community.
The conference will be hosting at least 250 participants. In order to make
sure that the access to the conference is fair and to not reproduce the
issues of last year (rush to get a ticket and long waiting list), we will
set up a more streamlined registration process, where a committee made up
of both staff and volunteers will make sure that the applicants will
contribute in one way or another to the goal of the conference. I will keep
you updated for the next steps of this process.
