Several conferences are held annually on Wikimedia, providing community members with opportunities to interact, share knowledge and experiences, and socialize. The Celtic Knot Wikimedia Language Conference (CKWLC) is one such conference.
Introduction
About CKWLC
The Celtic Knot Wikimedia Language Conference (CKWLC) event aims to unite the Wikimedia community to share their experiences in promoting and sharing information in minority and minoritised languages. It also seeks to teach participants how to facilitate the flow of information across language barriers and support their respective communities
The Celtic Knot Wikimedia Language Conference provides a platform for individuals involved in the growth and maintenance of communities on Wikipedia, Wikisource, or Wikidata
Wikidata is a free and open knowledge base that acts as central storage for the structured data of its Wikimedia sister projects including Wikipedia, Wikivoyage, Wiktionary, Wikisource, and others. Wikidata also provides support to many other sites and services beyond just Wikimedia projects
Wikidata
Properties have their own pages on Wikidata and are connected to items, resulting in a linked data structure.
P Identity e.g P17
Wikidata property
A property describes the data value of a statement and can be thought of as a category of data, for example "color" for the data value "blue". Properties, when paired with values, form a statement in Wikidata. Properties are also used in qualifiers.
Data value
Properties are similar to items in a couple of ways. Like items, each property has a label, a description, and even an alias or aliases that can be added in multiple languages.
