## Contributing

Code contributions and propositions are very welcome, here are some design constraints you should be aware of:
* `wikibase-edit` focuses on exposing Wikibase write operations. Features about getting and parsing data should rather go to [`wikibase-sdk`](https://github.com/maxlath/wikibase-sdk)

## See Also
* [wikibase-sdk](https://github.com/maxlath/wikibase-sdk): a javascript tool suite to query and work with any Wikibase data, heavily used by wikibase-edit and wikibase-cli
* [wikibase-cli](https://github.com/maxlath/wikibase-cli): The friendly command-line interface to Wikibase
* [wikibase-dump-filter](https://npmjs.com/package/wikibase-dump-filter): Filter and format a newline-delimited JSON stream of Wikibase entities
* [wikidata-subset-search-engine](https://github.com/inventaire/entities-search-engine/tree/wikidata-subset-search-engine): Tools to setup an ElasticSearch instance fed with subsets of Wikidata
* [wikidata-taxonomy](https://github.com/nichtich/wikidata-taxonomy): Command-line tool to extract taxonomies from Wikidata
* [Other Wikidata external tools](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Tools/External_tools)
