  • What? Wikidata technical training to learn how to query Wikidata with SPARQL, how to implement tools for Wikidata, how to invoke the API to code your own app, how to code a bot, how to import and link data, how to analyse Wikidata dumps, how to set up your own Wikibase, and possibly how to work effectively with MediaWiki extensions.
