Thanks All!
(and especially to Lane for by far the best complement I've received, maybe
ever..)
Will get back to you with the final product and some news about the
meeting.. Andra Waagmeester had a great idea that unfortunately we are a
bit late to implement. Fortune cookies to pass out where each fortune is a
single wikidata edit that the recipient is encouraged to make.. Would love
to see that play out someday.

Benjamin,
It might be helpful for you to get confirmation that there are no
excellent polished Wikidata tutorials in existence.
The good tutorials are made by people who know Wikidata, like the one EMW
shared, but EMW is not a graphic designer and made a practical presentation
rather than a corporate scripted slideset.
Your "poof it works" article is the state of the art.

It is all very casual and everything understates how important and
revolutionary Wikidata is. I still show your article to lots of people. Of
all the Wikidata narratives I have read I like yours the best.

The gene wiki people are hosting a tutorial on
wikidata in Cambridge, UK
next Monday [1]. In the interest of making the best tutorial in the least
amount of preparation time.. I was wondering if anyone on the list had
content (slides, handouts, cheatsheets) that they had already used
successfully and might want to share? We are assembling the structure of
the 90 minute session in a google doc [2], feel free to chime in there !
And of course everything we generate for that will be available online as
soon as it exists.
cheers
