DESCRIPTION:*A panel discussion to brainstorm about a sustainable and resi
 lient future of Wikidata's key volunteer-built tools.*\n\nMany everyday ed
 its and contributions to Wikidata are powered not by Wikidata’s own edit
 ing interface\, but by an ecosystem of very diverse software tools which a
 re designed and maintained by external parties. \n\nQuite often\, individu
 al Wikimedia volunteer developers create and maintain such software in the
 ir free time (examples include tools like [QuickStatements](https://www.wi
 kidata.org/wiki/Help:QuickStatements) and the [Wikidata reconciliation ser
 vice](https://wikidata.reconci.link/)). In some cases\, tools are part of 
 larger projects that receive occasional funding (examples include [OpenRef
 ine](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Tools/OpenRefine)\, [GLAMpipe]
 (https://glampipe.org/)\, [the Wikimedia Commons mobile app](https://commo
 ns.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Mobile_app)\, the [ISA Tool](https://commons
 .wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:ISA_Tool)\, and many others).\n\nThe resulting
  Wikidata tool ecosystem is extremely rich and interesting\, but also noto
 riously vulnerable. Development on such tools can easily stall when mainta
 iners don’t have (the privilege of) free time (anymore)\, move on\, and/
 or when temporary funding runs out.\n\nThis panel discussion and group bra
 instorm wants to look at this situation with a practical and solution-orie
 nted mindset. What actions can we take as a community to make this tool ec
 osystem more resilient? Does the Movement Strategy process offer tools for
  taking up this challenge? Which tools should be developed centrally to en
 sure the core practices of the content communities\, and how can we simult
 aneously encourage lightweight experiments in the community? \n\n**Panelis

DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wanted to share a multimedia biography of a scie
 ntist from a diverse background? Meet sciencestories.io\, powered by Wikid
 ata! We will demo sciencestories.io and explain how contributions to Wikid
 ata\, Wikimedia Commons and English Wikipedia help extend and improve thes
 e stories. We will go over the other types of resources that can be added 
 to stories like Vimeo videos\, YouTube videos\, IIIF images\, works from H
 athiTrust\, Internet Archive and more. Join this session to celebrate stor
 ies of amazing people.
