Change Details

From her experience working with various GLAMs (cultural institutes) on Wikidata projects, User:Spinster outlines some requests and needs that these organizations have - and that might be different from our own community's needs. Discussion to follow: * What to do with these observations? * What else do we need to know/ask from external contributors? * Agenda-setting, prioritizing... Typical requests from external data providers include: - Keeping Wikidata and external data sources linked and in sync - Ways, workflows, easy tools for external organizations to keep track of edits happening to 'their' data on Wikidata - Integrity of data from external providers (e.g. how to make sure that correct statements, sourced to an external data provider, are not vandalized or changed in an incorrect manner) - Statistics of use and re-use of specific sets of data, both on Wikimedia projects and externally - And they would actually really love it if we'd embrace something like [[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Image_Interoperability_Framework | IIIF ]] - so let them work from their own image repositories, with us embedding that.
