 * We would like to give special thanks to John Sadowski and everyone else at NIOSH who helped to make this event possible.

Wikipedia Tidbit of the Day
Wikidata is a project aimed at making a machine-readable database of knowledge analogous to the human-readable database that is Wikipedia. Information in Wikidata can be searched easily by various properties. You can access Wikidata via its main page or jump to a specific entry by clicking the "Wikidata item" link under "Tools" on the sidebar next to any Wikipedia article.
