WikiProjekt Stolpersteine goes Wikidata
2025-11-01 , One and Only

How the (project)[https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Stolpersteine_goes_Wikidata] tries to move the vast knowledge kept in Wikipedia lists into Wikidata and then back to Wikipedia.


WikiProjekt Stolpersteine is a project in multiple Wikipedias, which contain long, highly detailed lists about "Stolperstein" memorials in many cities. However these lists are mostly only available in German, not standardized and hard to maintain.
Therefore we try to import these tables to Wikidata (and Openstreetmap) and sort the images on Commons, with the goal of displaying structured Wikidata lists in Wikipedias in multiple languages.
