Was gibt’s besser als Apps, die das Leben leichter machen? 
Apps, die Open Source sind, auf offenen Daten basieren – und im wissenschaftlichen Bereich unterstützen?
Wikidata liefert dafür die perfekte Grundlage: eine offene Wissensdatenbank mit hochwertigem Wissen zur Welt.
Letzte Woche haben wir die App Paulina vorgestellt. 
Heute: Open Art Browser 
– euer Tor zu Künstlern & Werken aus aller Welt
Probiert es einfach mal aus!

Some cases had appeared again and I removed them again, apart form 2 who died in Russia and for whose dates of death I don't find good sources. Someone reading Russian might be able to help here. I'd be happy if so! #WikimediaCommons #Wikidata
I wrote up my notes and results of my effort to collect information about the Internet Journal of Chemistry: https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/2025/08/11/the-internet-journal-of-chemistry.html
Feedback, curation, ideas, etc are all most welcome!
Ah ben si même #Wikidata considère qu’être humain et milliardaire sont deux choses distinctes…
Remember when I was nerd-sniped and built a viewer for french communes border data?
Well, I rewrote all the data processing in Rust (and SQLite) and made it generic, so now instead of just french communes, there are 400+ categories of places to view. A few examples:
Brazil municipalities
Quarters of Limassol
Provinces in Thailand
Romanian counties (județ)
The image they added as default on Wikidata is this one

There are more but not too many:

Wikipedia has finally confirmed that I am a human being.
And they are right, I am on the side of the murdered children, not on the side of the politicians and cynics who are responsible for this. Unfortunately, it is still not available in Bavarian.

Is there 1 tool that you would like to be added to Wikidata?
The West Lothian area has 53 category A listed buildings on #wikidata. Ochiltree Castle has a #wikipedia article.

@ainali @wikimediaDE I don’t see how you would arrive at the consensus that tools of relevance to the Wikidata community wouldn’t be notable enough to be included in Wikidata. Clearly they are sui generis notable to a significant number of people. In addition they easily satisfy the following criterion:
> It refers to an instance of a clearly identifiable conceptual or material entity that can be described using serious and publicly available references.
End-of-week "fun" with #SPARQL & #tidyverse: Checking whether #CoVID had/has an impact of the life expectancy of (famous/relevant) people listed in #Wikidata.

Was just watching a recording of the second day of #Wikimania in #Nairobi and happened on a #Wikidata presentation. A member of the audience suggested a tool registry to be implemented on top of Wikidata during the Q&A. As comments are disabled for the recordings (on YouTube), I would like to mention our modest effort at building exactly such a tool registry for the #DigitalHumanities.
The project website can be found at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_DH_Tool_Registry
heute etwas #bookstodon content im @schwarzPhotoBot https://mastodon.social/@schwarzPhotoBot/114992087106289658 
Die Buchhandlung befand sich im Alexanderhaus, ich vermute an dieser Stelle: https://maps.app.goo.gl/8uHfRWspvQD4nRKdA
Die Informationen zur Buchhandlung habe ich in einem #wikidata Item zusammengefasst. Gerne ergänzen (insbes. Start- und Endzeitpunkt, Adresse etc.): https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q135669944
Aber vielleicht hat ja noch jemand Erinnerungen aus erster Hand oder bessere Quellen?
Neuer Blogbeitrag
Coordinate Me 2025 war ein von Wikimedia Österreich organisierter internationaler Wikidata-Wettbewerb rund um Geodaten – von Dörfern und Krankenhäusern bis hin zu öffentlicher Kunst und Naturdenkmälern.
Ziel war es, Wikidata-Datenobjekte mit Geodaten zu verbessern oder neu zu erstellen, und zwar in bestimmten Schwerpunktländern und -regionen.
Mehr Infos zum Wettbewerb gibts auf unserem Blog:

@stuartyeates ah, I am glad you ask :)
I have a solution I have been working with, the Citation Typing Ontology, see https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/tag/cito

Bei der #Wikimania2025 in Nairobi hat @nightrose, Wikidata Portfolio Lead, Tools vorgestellt, die mit #Wikidata gebaut wurden – teilweise von ehrenamtlichen Entwickler*innen – zum Wohle der Menschheit. 
Die Anwendungen helfen z. B. in der Wissenschaft. Zum Beispiel mit dem Tool Paulina, dass kompat Informationen zu Autor*innen bündelt und so einiges an wissenschaftlicher Arbeit sparen kann. 
Interesse? Hier gehts zur App: https://zurl.co/N7Pal

Is this your first Wikidata query or have you done one before?
