Wikidata e la ricerca 2024 (Wikidata and research 2024)[edit]

Abstract	Wikidata e la ricerca 2024 is a conversation on the potential of Wikidata for research in the humanities and what can be done to improve synergies and interoperability. Wikidata is an open and collaborative infrastructure for research. For years now, Wikidata has been a valuable tool for researchers and researchers have been contributing to its data in return. In the arts, humanities and social sciences, the collaborative use of Wikidata is still limited and could be enhanced.
