Help build the world's most comprehensive structured data wiki. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes DataData more valuable for everyone.

Ways to Contribute

Create New Datasets

Share your knowledge by creating entirely new datasets on topics that matter to you. From scientific data to cultural information, every dataset adds value to the global knowledge base.

Create New Dataset

Update Existing Datasets

Help keep DataData current by updating existing datasets. Add missing information, correct errors, or expand datasets with new entries and fields.

Contribution Guidelines

Be Deliberate

Every piece of data you add should be intentional and well-considered. Think about:

  • •Is this information valuable to others?
  • •Am I organizing the data in a clear, logical structure?
  • •Are my field names descriptive and consistent?
  • •Does this dataset serve a clear purpose?

Aim for Truth

DataData thrives on accuracy and reliability. Help us maintain high standards:

  • •Verify information from reliable sources before adding it
  • •Provide context and descriptions for datasets when possible
  • •Correct errors you find in existing datasets
  • •Use neutral, factual language in your contributions

Transparency & Accountability

All Changes Are Tracked

Every contribution to DataData is attributed to the user who made it. This creates a transparent system where changes can be traced back to their contributors, ensuring accountability and enabling quality control. Your contributions help build your reputation as a trusted data contributor.

Building Knowledge Together

Like Wikipedia revolutionized how we create and share encyclopedic knowledge, DataData aims to do the same for structured data. Every contribution—whether it's a new dataset about your local community, scientific measurements, historical records, or cultural information—adds to humanity's collective understanding.

The magic happens when thousands of people contribute their expertise, creating a resource that's more comprehensive and accurate than any single organization could build alone. Your unique perspective and knowledge can fill gaps that others might miss.

Remember:

  • • Small contributions add up to create something extraordinary
  • • Every dataset you create helps someone else learn or solve a problem
  • • Quality matters more than quantity—focus on getting it right
  • • You're building something that will benefit people for years to come
