WikidataCon is back! This flagship online conference dedicated to Wikidata and its community returns for 2025. With this year’s theme “Connections”, we’re bringing together contributors, reusers, tool-makers and data enthusiasts in a celebration of collaboration. Whether between Wikimedia Projects, WikiProjects, institutions and data reusers, across languages and communities.
Are you deep into data modelling, or documenting lexicographical data, want to build bridges across communities AND datasets? Now is your chance to be part of the programme:
the Call for Proposals is open!
This conference aims to be a space for meetings and exchanges between different Wikidata communities, including researchers, cultural institutions, linked open data enthusiasts as well as projects that interact with Wikidata on the topics of geographical data, human settlements or local languages that would best fit the following:
- The Future of Wikidata
- Lexemes and Languages
- Linked Open Data Ecosystem
- Reuse and Data Partnerships
- Providing the World with High Quality Data
- Other (Wikibase/LOD)

Proposals will be evaluated by the Organisation Team and a first Program schedule will be published on Pretalx during the month of September.
