Editing styles

[edit]

There are many ways to edit Wikidata. Certain styles of editing may resonate more with you than others. This is great! We want to do whatever we can to foster those inclinations.

Some editors specialize in creating new content. This can happen with individual items or with batch uploading large quantities of data.

Others specialize in monitoring the creation of new content.

Others, still, specialize in certain content areas and work to make related items more robust.

Some editors create tools or write scripts that can help users in new ways.

Others work on new policies to better support everyone's experience on Wikidata.

If you envision yourself contributing in a specific way, please let us know so we can point you to the best resources to fit that need.
