Wikidata provides general-purpose data about the world to everyone about nearly 100 Million concepts to date. Our data is used widely in the Wikimedia projects and beyond. With this wide use come growing expectations and responsibility. We'll take a look at what data quality on Wikidata even means, why it matters and what tools we have to improve it.

Session Outcomes
