Wikidata weekly summary #455
Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week. 
 * Discussions
 * Other: Tool ideas/ImproveWikidata


 * Events
 * Past: Linked Open Storytelling - Winter School 2021 - Fellow-Programm Freies Wissen (in German) (reply on YouTube)
 * Upcoming: SPARQL queries live on Twitch and in French by Vigneron, February 16 at 18:00 CET
 * Upcoming: Bug triage hour about Lexemes, February 16
 * Upcoming video: LIVE Wikidata editing #32 - YouTube, Facebook, February 20
 * Upcoming: Online Wikidata meetup in Swedish #50, February 21


 * Press, articles, blog posts, videos
 * Blog post: The promise of Wikidata: How journalists can use the crowdsourced open knowledge base as a data source, by Monika Sengul-Jones
 * Blog post: Data donation to Wikidata, part 2: country/subject dossiers of the 20th Century Press Archives (by Joachim Neubert, ZBW Labs)
 * Blog post: Bibliography and Citations of Hausa Folklore by Anasskoko
 * Video: Querying Linked (Wiki)data with SPARQL ✨ (presentation by Lucas Werkmeister at rC3, 90 minutes)
 * Video: Wikidata editing #31 Free Software Day - YouTube, Facebook
 * Video: Knowledge Graphs for AI: Wikidata and beyond - YouTube


 * Tool of the week
 * UseAsRef script allows you to add references to statements using one external ID as source (see User:Bargioni/UseAsRef and this YouTube video for more information)


 * Other Noteworthy Stuff
 * Abstract Wikipedia presents prototypes of two tools that could help people to visualize, exemplify, and better guide our understanding of the coverage of lexicographic data in Wikidata.
 * Public Domain Tool, developed by the Flemish Institute for Archives automates the process of determining whether their collection items could be in the public domain.
 * Sizes of country items (like "Portugal" (Q45)) were recently reduced by 30% to 50% by moving a few economics properties to "economy of"-items (sample: "economy of Portugal" (Q1649355)). The item "economy of Portugal" is currently larger than "Portugal". This can simplify uses of country items that previously timed-out. Infoboxes can still access the properties with the link through "economy of topic" (P8744).
 * Later this week, the development team will enable a rate limit for assigning new item IDs. Bots and users who successfully create items should notice no change, since the rate limit is equal to the existing limit on all edits. However, bots that often fail to create items may start to see different error messages than usual. This will hopefully reduce the problem of skipped item IDs.
 * Guidelines and compensation for UX research lead by Wikimedia Germany (announcement)
