For this meeting, we will have an item edit-a-thon--bring your own alternate labels and add them to the database! We will continue using small-group breakouts during the working hour to help encourage discussion during the edit-a-thon. About the LD4 Wikibase Working Hour: The LD4 Wikibase Working Hour <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_LD4_Wikidata_Affinity_Group/Wikibase_and_WBStack_Working_Hours> seeks to create a space for GLAM professionals experimenting with Wikibase/WBStack implementation, the software that Wikidata is based on, to learn collaboratively and share tips, tools, and resources. For more details, see the project page <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_LD4_Wikidata_Affinity_Group/Wikibase_and_WBStack_Working_Hours>.
