add motivation and "why" to use wikidata as one topic.
Especially why to use an librarian

  • maybe also through real case (e.g. scholia)

  • Wikidata can be used for mapping identfier to each other - eg. you have an ORCID and you woul like to get the GND ID or VIAF ID (or flicker id / GitHub name!)

+1 the idea for use cases, which I've found excellent for communicating both the "what" and "why". The LD4-Wikidata affinity group call list is a great library-side reference, for instance: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_LD4_Wikidata_Affinity_Group/Affinity_Group_Calls
