Topic: Wikidata property proposals
...
Presenter: Our presenter this month will be Adam Schiff, Principal Cataloger at the University of Washington. Adam has had nearly 50 new property proposals approved to date (see list at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_PCC_Wikidata_Pilot/University_of_Washington/Properties_Created), all based on requests from UW pilot project participants and for his own Wikidata work.
Description: In the course of describing an entity in Wikidata, you may have come across information that would be suitable for a new property which you would like to use in a new item. Proposals can be made for identifiers and other types of properties.
Adam will walk us through the steps involved in creating a property proposal and the process used in Wikidata to discuss and approve them. Adam will demonstrate making a proposal for a new identifier property and answer questions based on his experiences.
