Some questions we received as part of a survey by Wikimedia Germany of Wikibase users:

  • Give a short description of your project, specifically mentioning why you chose to use Wikibase (max 100 words).
    • We are using a Wikibase instance at https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/ to aggregate, integrate and curate research-related data across the field of mathematics. We chose this model because it allows us to
      1. customize our workflows and infrastructure for mathematical needs, while
      2. staying closely aligned with Wikidata and
      3. handling data that would not fit the scope of Wikidata (e.g. in terms of granularity).
  • Describe how you documented your project (max 100 words).
  • Did Wikibase meet your needs? Describe the challenges and successes you faced when implementing Wikibase (max 150 words).
    • Our project is ongoing, and we expect that we can adjust it to our most important needs. Some of the challenges that we met and that may be relevant to other Wikibase instances:
