Having repeatedly started exploratory work on building my own data based projects using various versions of things created under the banner &quot;Wikidata&quot; ... I continue to be unimpressed by the tools and documentation and developer experience... I love the project and its really great for Wikipedia and working well for them.<p>But while anyone can get MediaWiki going and do useful things with it... Wikidata&#x27;s components are poorly explained, and in many ways actually constructed in a way that&#x27;s only useful to Wikipedia. Which is a massive loss to the overall open data community.
