The modules will consist of several short videos that can be viewed while practicing. They will be freely available through an open platform (YouTube? OER?)...
Videos will have captions or dubbing – English, Spanish, Chinese, and other languages that we can muster up. Hire students to dub and check translations; we provide technical translations.
Proposed episodes for a "Wikidata for Libraries" tutorial series
1. Introduction: What is Wikidata? What is it used for? What’s in it for me and my institution?
Relax – the community is helpful
Linked data (RDF) -- click on anything in WD for more info/example entries

--Conflict of interest statement
--Babel language box (affects languages displayed to you)

3. Mechanics of editing/publishing/removing
4. See and create a typical record for a person [since the videos are short we could make some for other specialties like artworks]
5. See and create a typical journal article entry
6. Completeness [Everybody asks about it, but is there a good answer?]
--follow good examples from WD
7. Searching Wikidata for people and things, and checking for duplicates
--Wikibase statement searching from the search box

8. Tips and tricks for finding Wikidata subjects and “fields of work”
--follow good examples from WD
--Use Wikipedia articles to find Wikidata QIDs
--Check items in drop-down menus (that have no description) to make sure that they’re subjects and not publications
--Keep a notebook of the WD properties that you find useful
9. Whoops! I created a duplicate record again – Fix with your first basic tool
--Install and use "merge.js"
10. Basic tool installation and use – Reasonator

''What are criteria you will define success for your project, and how do you intend to measure for them? What are your targets for these measurements?''
--(Are we offering some kind of live training? If so, we could gauge participation.)[Offer live training oriented to each video, as Steve does with his programming seminars now]
--We will monitor the use of the videos over time by tracking the video analytics (easily done on YouTube, not sure about other platforms.)
--Offer gift cards or prizes to testers who complete a certain number of edits.
