The Wikidata for Digital Humanities workshop offered attendees an opportunity to learn about Wikidata — an open platform of structured linked data. This crowdsourced, language-independent knowledge base stores a wide range of subjects and releases its data under an open license, allowing their reuse. The low barrier for interacting with the Wikidata platform makes it a great candidate for linked open data (LOD) representation and facilitates collaboration from the global community of users. The session provided an overview of Wikidata as well as selected tools and services that can be used to explore, contribute, and export data.
