Micelio[edit]
Micelio is involved in various implementation and research projects on using Wikidata. Most notably the Gene Wiki project where biomedical public databases are aligned with Wikidata. While Wikidata remains core, various use cases emerged where data is not eligible for inclusion in Wikidata (e.g. non-public reuse licenses or in need of a data model that is not yet implemented on Wikidata). In close collaboration with others we then explore the possibilities of deploying and reusing wikibase to allow creating a federated landscape of deployed wikibases that have Wikidata as a core. This through running Proof-of-concept studies or assisting in "Bring your own data" workshops, where participants are assisted in adding their data to a wikibase.
