Motivation[edit]
I've been researching free software developers and how their tools are impacting the world. Along the way, I've added information about a few to wikidata. However, I noticed that one thing I can't add is the Mozilla Hacks author ID. It's a blog run by Mozilla that contains tons of great technical information and is often written to by impactful developers. So I'd like to add this property so it's easier to find some content by these developers. Apologies in advanced if anything in the above template is wrong, I'm relatively new to wikidata. Also, before realizing there was a process to create a property I made Q112573477 which probably shouldn't exist. Thanks RayScript (talk) 20:14, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
