  2. #Wikidata currently holds information on almost 20000 periodicals published worldwide before 1930: w.wiki/A6s8. But, as one would suspect, quality of data and coverage differs widely between regions.

    So, if you work on periodicals, particularly those published outside the Global North and major centres of publication, consider adding your knowledge to Wikidata for others to link to and discover these awesome resources.
