Information access and augmentation The most straightforward way to use Wikidata is to populate a project with rich and varied data, structured from the source -- whether it's tapping information directly or adding extra context or dimension to existing data.

Machine learning and AI Wikidata's robust and reliable data is ideal for use in training machine-learning models, such as for improving entity recognition or verifying an algorithm's output. There’s nothing like mountains of hard data to keep machine learning and artificial intelligence tethered to the real world.

Data visualization & exploration Immense volumes of information are hard for humans to conceive of. Visualization is crucial to imbuing bodies of data with meaning, and exploration tools provide guidance across vast, difficult-to-navigate data oceans. There's no shortage of ways to represent Wikidata's contents, including both built-in functionality and implementations by gifted third parties.

Gateway to Linked Open Data Although Wikidata contains a staggering amount of data, growing every day, it's only one of many data stores in the world's network of Linked Open Data. Wikidata also contains countless links that lead to this rich assortment of databases and catalogs.

Disambiguating, cataloging and tagging Wikidata has something special to offer those who work with large datasets of their own: the ability to use its IDs of notable entities for tagging and disambiguation, providing precious, hard-to-find context.

Internationalization One of Wikidata's greatest strengths is that its data is impressively multilingual, making it perfect for internationalization and localization. It’s also packed with lexicographical data -- data about words in many languages.
