It can be accessed and edited by both humans and machines and > acts as a common structured-data repository for several Wikimedia projects, > including Wikipedia, Wiktionary, and Wikisource. It is used in a variety of > applications by researchers and practitioners alike. > > In recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of publications > around Wikidata. While there are several dedicated venues for the broader > Wikidata community to meet, none of them focuses on publishing original, > peer-reviewed research. This workshop fills this gap - we hope to provide a > forum to build this fledgling scientific community and promote novel work > and resources that support it. > > The workshop primarily seeks original contributions that address the > opportunities and challenges of creating, contributing to, and using a > global, collaborative, open-domain, multilingual knowledge graph such as > Wikidata. > > We encourage a range of submissions, including novel research, opinion > pieces, and descriptions of systems and resources, which are naturally > linked to Wikidata and its ecosystem or enabled by it. What we are less > interested in are works that use Wikidata alongside or in lieu of other > resources to carry out some computational task - unless the work feeds back > into the Wikidata ecosystem, for instance by improving or commenting on > some Wikidata aspect, or suggesting new design features, tools, and > practices. > > This year, we also added a track for already published work. To foster > conversations around the topic of Wikidata, we invite authors of papers > published at other conferences to submit their papers to present at the > workshop. These will not be included in the proceedings but gives a chance > for authors to interact with the community. > > We welcome interdisciplinary work, as well as interesting applications that > shed light on the benefits of Wikidata and discuss areas of improvement. > > The workshop is planned as an interactive half-day event, in which most of > the time will be dedicated to discussions and exchange rather than oral > presentations.
