Partnerships around all things Wikidata and Wikibase


We see Data Partnerships as a key component of our larger strategy and vision for Wikidata and Wikibase. Through Data Partnerships, we aim to contribute to a healthy and community-driven Linked Open Data web. This web of Linked Open Data should be accessible, usable, inclusive and diverse, ultimately increasing the sum of free knowledge.

Data Partnerships is embedded within the Software Communications team (SCoT) at Wikimedia Deutschland. SCoT handles a variety of communications roles and chiefly operates as an intermediary between WMDE’s Software Development department and the Wikiverse.
