Modeling a project

This page describes how a project (Q2) can be modelled on this Wikibase instance.

A project could be:

• a formal one officially implemented by an organization (a Wikimedia chapter, a GLAM, or other)
• an informal one implemented by a self-organized group (such as participants in a Wikiproject), or an individual (a volunteer Wikimedian)

The modelling described here is based on how Wikimedia Sverige (Q9) structures their projects. An example of such a project is Wikidata for authority control (Q14). Note the WMSE-specific properties WMSE project ID (P9) and sorted under programmatic area (P10).
