Tool of the week

OpenStreetMap: OpenStreetMap, is a project that creates and distributes free geographic data for the world. It was started because most maps you think of as free actually have legal or technical restrictions on their use, holding back people from using them in creative, productive, or unexpected ways .

Other Noteworthy Stuff

Development

Wikidata Query Service: The search platform team finished the remaining work for the graph split and it is going live this week.
We took part in the Wikimedia Hackathon in Istanbul
Wikipedia and co: We continued working on improving how Wikidata edits are shown on the watchlist on Wikipedia and co. We are focusing on showing labels instead of IDs for the entities (Items, Properties, ...) linked in the edit summaries (phab:T388685)
UI: We continued doing small fixes for dark mode support in the UI (phab:T385039)
Wikibase REST API: We are continuing the work on the search endpoint (phab:T383126)

You can see all open tickets related to Wikidata here. If you want to help, you can also have a look at the tasks needing a volunteer.
