Abstract

With the development of Wikidata, wikipedians active in medium and small wikis (which is the case for many users living in North America) face the problem of adding data into wikidata items only available in their language. This presentation offers simple methods and tools to increase data in those specific items. And bring, by the same way, a diversity in content. The presentation will be based on this presentation made during Wikiarabia 2016.
