Page values for "Submissions:2023/What's the use (case) of starting your biography creation in Wikidata?"

Most people start creating biographies in Wikipedia, but there is a case for creating or expanding the Wikidata item first. Reasons include less stringent notability standards, the ability to collect citations without the threat of deletion, the advantage of having properties that one inputs displayed in multiple-language Wikipedias, and that it is sometimes good enough to have a Wikidata item itself, or as supporting data. A preliminary slide deck developed for an edit-a-thon, but not yet used, can be seen at https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1bOkmOPjySR-TbsNnDrJvTuWbKcn7uHKfeCI-YaEKL2w/edit?usp=sharing
