The conference organization TED has begun a collaboration with the Wikimedia community. TED is committed to enabling more people to learn from these educational talks and they have a wider community of volunteers that transcribe and subtitle these talks in various languages. More about the collaboration can found at outreach:TED conferences and at d:Wikidata:TED.
Wikipedians in Residence
editFrom February - July 2016, TED appointed two Wikipedians in Residence, Jane Darnell (User:Jane023) and Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing).
TED speakers and articles about them in Wikipedia projects
editThe column "Trans" indicates whether for that language translated titles were added to Wikidata from the TED data donation (Y=Yes). Note that for those languages for which the Listeria bot is available, I have created lists in my userspace for both the TED speakers and the TED talks. Don't see your language? Add a request for your language on the Talk page and I will make lists and update the table.
