 * First impressions of the KB - In June-July 2022 the national library of the Netherlands (KB) created and configured a test instance on Wikibase.cloud. Many of the steps they needed to take in the setup process were as to be expected when working with fresh MediaWiki instances in general, and Wikidata in particular. However, some steps were not immediately logical, manifest, clearly documented or simply beyond their (then) knowledge and experience. They created a presentation in which they share their experiences and first impressions of unboxing, setting up, configuring and tweaking their Wikibase.cloud test instance. They also present solutions for most of the issues they encountered.
