Romaine, Lydia and Wikidatans, In what ways can we engage the weekly summary and the newsletter, and other approaches, for example, to help educate users about best ways to "add a newly written article to an item," or a language, easily, since wikidata/wikibase beneficial changes to Wikipedia may well lead to less authorial/editorial ease?
Wikipedia's initial wondrous growth into 287 + languages is due significantly to ease of crowd-source editing this collaborative wiki encyclopedia, as I see it, and this is well worth trying to continue to facilitate for many, many reasons. Flourishing users and editors are one of the most important communities to nurture, as I see it. How best to help users understand wikidata?
