[8.9] Wikidata Hackathon

oleg · 14 February 2018 08:18

Wikidata Zurich meetups like the workshop with @csarasua we supported last year are outstanding opportunities to learn how to use and contribute to WikiData! Up next:

Regular Meetup, kick-off April 25: Wikidata Zurich Meetup
June 16: Wikidata Zurich Datathon an event to encourage and help data providers to publish their own data in a Wikidata-friendly way.
September 8: Wikidata Zurich Hackathon a hacking event to code with and for Wikidata.

I’ve added these to our calendar - and of course our own Hackdays this weekend will be a great time to explore the foodie side of Wikidata - see you in Basel!

I would love to attend the Hackdays in Basel, but unfortunately I cannot make it. I have posted a Wikidata-foodie idea: https://hack.opendata.ch/project/169/

It was fun to connect with @csarasua and the participants in live video between hackathons on Saturday! Thanks for using dribdat and sharing your feedback. This Twitter thread is also one I’m really keen to expand on. Looking forward to digging into all the results - in the meantime, we’ve got impressions from social media:
