Many cultural institutions that aggregate data to Europeana's infrasturcture use Wikidata elements to enrich their content and improve the quality of their data. The more effective Wikidata, the better the quality of the results of those who use Wikidata will be. This webinar will explore the characteristics of the Wikidata ontology and how to correctly add new items related to concepts absent in Wikidata by setting the relationships between them and the pre-existing elements (classes and subclasses).
