đŹ Telegram group |
- Welcome!
- 30 Lexic-o-days was a series of gatherings taking place from March 15th to April 14th 2021, focusing on lexicographical data on Wikidata. With presentations, discussions, editing sprints and more, the goal of this event was to bring together people who are working on Lexemes on Wikidata and who want to contribute, improve the content as well as the documentation, and discuss various matters related to the project. This event is now finished, you can find the notes and recording of the sessions in the events section, as well as the outcomes and projects.
- Discussions and help
- Discussions and questions about Lexemes, how to structure and organize data, etc. should take place on the talk page of the lexicographical data project. Please note that if important discussions or decisions are happening during the event, they should probably be summarized somewhere on-wiki so it is transparent for community members who can't join the event or are not on Telegram.
Announcements of sessions, short discussions to coordinate with other participants, and other social gatherings are taking place on the Telegram group Wikidata Lexicographical Data.
Discussions related to the Lexic-o-days can take place on this talk page. If you have any question or need support (for example, to schedule and organize a session), feel free to contact Lea Lacroix (WMDE) directly (lea.lacroix
wikimedia.de or @Auregann on Telegram).
Please note that the entire initiative, including the presentations and discussions on various channels, is covered by the Code of Conduct for technical spaces. Please contribute in making the discussion spaces safe and welcoming for everyone.
