-Encouraged by an excellent Wikidata workshop at [[http://make.opendata.ch/wiki/event:2017-09|#GLAMhack 2017]], we are testing a new dataset of Swiss museums, their locations and photos, obtained via the Wikidata Linked Data endpoint (see app/data/*.sparql in [[https://github.com/loleg/openguesser/tree/wikidata-initial|wikidata-initial branch]]). This opens the possibility of connecting other sources, such as datasets tagged 'glam' on Opendata.swiss, and creating more custom games based on this engine.+Encouraged by an excellent Wikidata workshop ([[https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1hwUBbtP0TppAKrEpjtSjdOXePZ_7OIRNDWsAHzVk0NA/htmlpresent|slides]]) at [[http://make.opendata.ch/wiki/event:2017-09|#GLAMhack 2017]], we are testing a new dataset of Swiss museums, their locations and photos, obtained via the Wikidata Linked Data endpoint (see app/data/*.sparql in [[https://github.com/loleg/openguesser/tree/wikidata-initial|wikidata-initial branch]]).
