Wikidata has been recognized as a digital public good by the UN-endorsed Digital Public Good Association. Happy 13th birthday, Wikidata! I'm so proud of this teenager.
@wikidata And congratulations on this as well!
"Earlier this year, in February, Wikipedia was recognized as a digital public good (DPG). Now, Wikidata follows in its footsteps – as the world’s largest open knowledge graph, used globally to build transparency, trust, and digital equity."

In case you missed the news, PBS cutting it's budget 21% due to funding cuts. If you're not already, you can join/donate for $5/month and, bonus, you get to watch all of their great stuff.
