Introduction Wikidata

NEDERLAND
Wikidata is a free linked database that can be
read and edited by both humans and machines.

NEDERLAND
Wikidata acts as central storage for the
structured data of its Wikimedia sister projects
including Wikipedia, Wikivoyage, Wikisource, and
others.

NEDERLAND
Data in Wikidata is in the public domain

Wikidata knows about Wikipedia categories. NEDERLAND
Currently there are items for 2,406,128 categories.
Many of those items refer to categories in multiple Wikipedias. One random
example is item Q8884100, it refers to categories in 10 Wikipedias.
All of them categorize people who studied at the university of Notre Dame. Many
of them know about people only known in that Wikipedia. In addition to this there
may be articles that are not categorised or references to articles that are not in
one of the 10 categories known at this time.

NEDERLAND
When multiple categorised are "harvested" in Wikidata, Wikidata knows
about more items than any of the individual categories. This enables the
use of the data in new ways.
• suggest categories based on the presence of statements in the Wikidata
category
• suggest statement when an article is included in a category
• include red links in a category when a Wikipedia does not have articles.
