My 100th edit to Wikidata
Wikidata notified me this morning I had made my 100th edit. Last night I made a few edits to the entry on the 2020 sci-fi film Sputnik by the Russia director Egor Abramenko. The Wikidata item for the film, Q86675345, was missing the Traditional Chinese title. A few statements about it did not have the Chinese language counterparts. So I patched them in. I also added a statement about the film's release date in Taiwan, which was yesterday (Nov 27, 2020).
A while ago I learned Mike had created a Wikidata entry on me, probably in conjunction with the Wikidata entry on the book sprint project Cost of Freedom: A Collective Inquiry. Last night, I added my Traditional Chinese name to my own entry (it is natural and necessary to do so, isn't it?). Mike's Wikidata entry is missing a few things too. I updated a few statements about him, as well as adding a Traditional Chinese name for him (I invented one for him when translating an article he wrote for Creative Commons Taiwan in 2016). It is only reciprocal. ;-)
Our lab uses Wikidata quite frequently in research projects. We are improving data discovery through Wikidata, for example. We have been working with Taiwan's National Museum of Human Rights in using Wikidata together with the Museum's collections. Still, adding my own edits to Wikidata has been rare for me.
(By the way, Sputnik is great -- I totally dig the 80s Soviet mood!)
