- Abstract (up to 300 words to describe your proposal)
The vision of the Project “Cultural heritage” on Wikidata is to establish Wikidata as a central hub for data integration, data enhancement, and data management in the heritage domain. Much has already been done in this context, but even more remains to be done. Together, we will look back on the past year, share our experiences, and make plans in view of our future activities at the intersection of Wikidata and cultural heritage.
