It emphasizes the importance of taking a methodical, "snail-paced" approach to data collection and analysis, which can lead to more meaningful and accurate insights. The blogpost also highlights how this approach can complement the broader trends of big data, ensuring that detailed, high-quality data is not overlooked.
* Papers

''' Tool of the week '''
* '''Elemwala (এলেমওয়ালা)''' (): is a proof-of-concept interface that allows you to input abstract content and get natural language text in a given output language. There may well be errors with particular inputs, and the text may not be quite as natural as you might expect, but that's where your improvements to your language's lexemes, other Wikidata items, and the tool's come in!
* : Tool for calculating multilinguality score of Wikidata items (including properties). E.g. for ], the scores are - ''en'': 99.66%, ''fr'': 89.49%, ''es'': 84.07%, ''pt'': 68.47%. For ], the scores are - ''en'': 99.86%, ''fr'': 87.12%, ''es'': 80.83%, ''pt'': 61.37%.

''' Other Noteworthy Stuff '''
* Launch of ]: The goal of this project is to prepare for deprecation, and eventual removal, of the property ]. Currently, ] is labeled as "being deprecated", meaning its use is still allowed, but discouraged. From a peak of around 900,000 uses, the property now has around 700,000 uses (see status ). Our goal is to reduce that as much as possible in a systematic way, while ensuring that appropriate properties exist to replace all valid uses of ]. The latter is key to officially deprecating the property. Before ''removing'' the property, we want to get as close to zero uses as possible.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

  • Launch of WikiProject Deprecate P642: The goal of this project is to prepare for deprecation, and eventual removal, of the property of (P642). Currently, of (P642) is labeled as "being deprecated", meaning its use is still allowed, but discouraged.
