DESCRIPTION:While the world of Wikibase focuses mainly on institutional use
 rs\, the increasing maturity of Docker-based distributions and availabilit
 y of hosting platforms such as WBStack and Miraheze has led to a prolifera
 tion of individual and community use outside academia\, as well as several
  independent research projects.\n\nThis overview of the field seeks common
 alities in various examples\, and briefly considers some of the challenges
  such users face.

DESCRIPTION:The [Wikibase Community User Group](https://meta.wikimedia.org/
 wiki/Wikibase_Community_User_Group) (WBUG) supports Wikibase as an entity 
 distinct from Wikidata. As a WMF affiliate\, its mission is to cultivate W
 ikibase's development and encourage like-minded developers and data analys
 ts to create and improve related tools.\n\nOver time\, the group has taken
  on an operational support role for new users. Members offer [interactive 
 help over Telegram](https://t.me/joinchat/HGjGexZ9NE7BwpXzMsoDLA) and give
  input to [discussions via their mailing list](https://lists.wikimedia.org
 /mailman/listinfo/wikibaseug)\, as well as contributing to Phabricator tic
 kets and documentation.\n\nWBUG's primary contacts will hold an open forum
  during WikidataCon's Wikibase Track\, instead of the usual monthly meetup
 . This will introduce the group to a broader Wikidata community and offer 
 space to reflect on what did or did not work in terms of programming and l
 earning as the Wikibase track concludes. Any time remaining may be used to
  consider the group's future development and activities.
