Wikidata: An Introduction to the Database of the World's Knowledge

Imagine Wikipedia's information in a structured form: that's Wikidata. Wikidata<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fasis.us12.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D0c06bfbaf68eda1e223463315%26id%3Da8d9a69bb7%26e%3D7dde9cb910&data=01%7C01%7Cpwillke%40library.ohio.gov%7C0e427c0d0608476b4b6508d438a0e5d2%7C50f8fcc494d84f0784eb36ed57c7c8a2%7C0&sdata=2UcQLnUy58zjoSfwJZOnIx32fHUvdD%2BO9ir1syGRkfE%3D&reserved=0> is a free, open, collaborative, and multilingual knowledge base that can be read by both humans and machines. It's a central storage for structured data that can be used by Wikipedia and its sister projects, as well as the general public. Wikidata proves to be a powerful and useful tool for libraries, museums, mapping services, developers, and everyday people.

Kevin Payravi will present 'Wikidata: An Introduction to the Database of the World's Knowledge' in person and via webinar.  He will cover the basics of Wikidata, the problems it solves, and the powerful tasks it can accomplish for people and organizations now, as well as in the future. He will explain how people contribute to Wikidata, and how Wikidata can be utilized by anyone for their own projects, queries, and more.

Kevin Payravi is an undergraduate student studying computer science and engineering at The Ohio State University. He has been a volunteer editor of Wikipedia and its sister projects for over 8 years. At Ohio State, Kevin founded Wikipedia Connection<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fasis.us12.list-manage1.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D0c06bfbaf68eda1e223463315%26id%3Dc4e7ec02a7%26e%3D7dde9cb910&data=01%7C01%7Cpwillke%40library.ohio.gov%7C0e427c0d0608476b4b6508d438a0e5d2%7C50f8fcc494d84f0784eb36ed57c7c8a2%7C0&sdata=oGQU538SSRH1Ip2Wmqgomz19bhYlyGq3dffbXyLaIHg%3D&reserved=0>, a student organization that connects students and faculty to Wikipedia through workshops, edit-a-thons, and more.
