Someday/maybe projects

[edit]

Ideas for other potential future projects:

  • New Zealand charities id: create a property so that organisations can be linked to the Charities Register, can then be used a) as an identifier, b) for stated in qualifiers
  • New Zealand government agencies editathon: improve the quality of the pages about New Zealand government agencies, at the moment they are generally of a low quality
  • New Zealand government registers: improve Wikidata entries for official registers, such as company, incorporated societies, etc
