WikiProject International Botanical Congress 2024

About Wikidata WikiProject International Botanical Congress 2024

The International Botanical Congress (IBC) takes place once every six years. The organisers of this WikiProject see this conference as an ideal opportunity to engage with the wider botanical community, educate them about the potential of Wikidata and to train them in its use. We will also use this opportunity to improve the data held in Wikidata about the participants, presenters and their contributions to botany.

Aims and scope

• Deliver a Wikidata workshop to 50 conference participants
• Deliver Wikidata related presentations and poster at the conference (1 paper and 1 poster has been accepted)
• Engage in informal outreach during the conference
• "Wikify" the conference, its participants and their contributions to botany
