Here, the Wikidata Development Team organizes and shares work on making Wikidata more useful and usable for our users. To gain knowledge about user needs, we bring in our experiences at Meetups, Conferences and on mailinglists be we also do focused research like interviews and test our software for usability.
What we learn is often summarized in examples of use, little stories known as "scenarios". Since many different users are interested in Wikidata, we try to remind ourselfs of this diversity by having "example users" which serve as an example of how a user of a broad cluster (like "very active Wikidata editor") could be like. If we learn something new, we will update these materials. Also there are different levels of certainty about such assumptions, which we also try to communicate – is it something that is more a possible decent assumption or is it research tested and has gone through a check by other community members?
