hier sind die Folien für meine Wikidata-Einführung, die um 14:45 im Free Knowledge Habitat statfand: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Free_Knowledge_Habitat_39c3_(2025)_-_Wikidata_Introduction_DE.pdf
here are the slides for the Wikidata introduction I did at 3:15pm in the Free Knowledge Habitat: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Free_Knowledge_Habitat_39c3_(2025)_-_Wikidata_Introduction_EN.pdf
if you want to know more about Wikidata, Andrew McAllister and I are doing an Intro to SPARQL and Wikidata Query Service at 8:30pm today, also in the Free Knowledge Habitat: https://pretalx.wikimedia.de/39c3-2025/talk/RNWUH8/
The WIkidata Query Service (WDQS) is one of the main services to get data from Wikidata. In this workshop we'll explore the SPARQL query language that allows us to access data as well as the WDQS UI, a helpful UI in which we can write and run queries. The goal is that you'll be able to write your own queries and explore Wikidata's data by the end of the session.
I have a DECT now btw, LUWE (5893) ^^
time from tooting my DECT number to receiving a call: approx. ten seconds

good morning #39c3!
I should try to get a bit more sleep tonight tho
Stolperfallen--;

I have the nail polish with me btw, if anyone else would like to have their nails painted 
heute Abend (20:00–21:00) im Free Knowledge Habitat: Wikidata Live Querying! wir denken uns gemeinsam interessante SPARQL-Anfragen für Wikidata aus ^^ (kommt zahlreich weil alleine werd ich nicht so viele Ideen haben
) https://pretalx.wikimedia.de/39c3-2025/talk/VTELBK/
(I don't quite remember if doing this (only) in German was an intentional decision back whenever I added this to the CfP… would a lot of people be interested in an English version of Wikidata Live Querying at some later time, if we find space in the schedule? ^^)
I think the live querying workshop went fairly well
and I also ended up allocating the https://w.wiki/HELP short URL during it 😭 we probably could’ve used that for something more useful. oh well lol

if @DorkusShorkus was taller or more athletic, I wouldn’t have had to crane my back+neck down so much in order to talk into the microphone while typing 😤
some queries from the live querying session:
• Swahili verb lexemes, with English sense glosses if available: https://w.wiki/HEKo
• translations of a certain word based on lexemes: https://w.wiki/HEKx
• statements of the Swahili item: https://w.wiki/HELP
@theresnotime hiiii :3

I forgot to announce my session in advance again 😅 but enough people were still interested in the WDQS introduction in German!
some of our queries:
• items founded by Jimmy Wales or Larry Sanger (I don’t endorse etc. etc.): https://w.wiki/HEe3
• events in series organized by CCCV: https://w.wiki/HEeS
• CCC-affiliated events (more complicated version of the above): https://w.wiki/HEfA
• how many other item-type statements the #39c3 item has: https://w.wiki/HEex
• awards received by Albert Einstein: https://w.wiki/HEfL

this is a confirmation that an item ID, combined with the term “Qid” (according to the courier), is enough for delivery :3
by popular demand*, I’m doing another Wikidata introduction tomorrow! 10:45 AM, at the Free Knowledge Habitat: https://pretalx.wikimedia.de/39c3-2025/talk/YLBHLH/
* nobody explicitly asked for it, but the Wikidata introductions on day 1 were quite well attended (both the German and English edition), so I hope enough people will be interested, around this early in the morning, and see this announcement (or the schedule entry) in time 😅
RE: https://wikis.world/@LucasWerkmeister/115805355771091840
there was in fact demand for another Wikidata introduction, our workshop area was pretty full again \o/
up next (in 2 minutes ^^) in the Free Knowledge Habitat (next to the escalators on the first floor, opposite hall X): A whirlwind tour through the land of Wikidata-powered apps! https://events.ccc.de/congress/2025/hub/en/event/detail/a-whirlwind-tour-through-the-land-of-wikidata-powe
Wikidata's data is used in thousands of projects and often we don't realize what our work makes possible. In this session we will take a tour through some of the great applications and services that have been built on top of Wikidata's data. Join ...

you can have some photos of *this* train, as a treat
(I was walking to the front of it to take a photo of the locomotive and then it started to drive away
)
and of this ICE train which turned out to be just passing through
this is the only photo I got of my own train :P
current status: wishing some wiki people would chill out a bit more in requesting my attention while I’ve been busy irl over the past few days
but also I can’t really blame them for not being aware of that, I guess
I fulfilled a few minor edit requests when I had some spare time, but left others open for later; and now I’m wondering if that was a mistake because it might have given people the wrong impression that I could be expected to be as active as usual, and I shouldn’t have edited at all
RE: https://chaos.social/@stk/115813757688358368
my photos from 39C3: one from @c3lingo, four of the printed Fahrplan, and five of @c3tactile embroidered floor plans (let me know if any information should be corrected ^^) https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListFiles&dir=prev&offset=20251104204854%7CLL-Q188_%28deu%29-Lucas_Werkmeister-Akklimatisierung.wav&limit=10&user=Lucas+Werkmeister
(and that’s all that makes sense to upload, the rest of what I posted here doesn’t make sense on
IMHO. it took me until the evening of day 3 to realize that I could comply with the photo policy by taking close-up-ish photos of neat stuff without people…)
one more train photo for the road, as I embark on my final leg back to Berlin
