Hey everyone :)
I forgot to send this to wikimedia-l this morning as well... I'm incredibly happy to share the news with you that Wikidata has won the Open Data Award of the Open Data Institute in the category publisher. The world is starting to notice that we have something big with Wikidata.

Hey everyone,
Wooooow! We won! \o/ This is incredible. I am so happy to see this recognition of all the work we've put into Wikidata together. Magnus and I had a blast at the award ceremony yesterday night. Here's a picture of us on stage with Sir Nigel Shadbolt and Sir Tim Berners-Lee:

Here's Wikidata written in huge letters above the heads of the audience: https://twitter.com/marin_dim/status/529721419580854272 And here is Magnus and me with the price: https://twitter.com/wikidata/status/529723778558083074 I am delighted that they especially recognized the breath of topics Wikidata covers and that it has been developed in the open since the beginning. This award is for everyone in this community. We should be proud! This is a perfect start into year 3 of Wikidata :)
Cheers Lydia
