#DataReuseDays2025

🎉 12 years ago, Wikidata began as an idea -- and look where we are now! 🚀 It all started with Denny and Markus, who dreamed of creating a free, structured knowledge base that anyone could edit. Curious about how it all began? 📜 This paper by Lydia, Denny and Markus dives into the origin story: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3543873.3585579

Here’s to many more years of collaboration and open data! 🥂 #Wikidata12Birthday
