Homepage of Wikipedia - when you scroll down there is a whole infrastructure built around it.

Wikidata is the "youngest" structure among all.

Tim Berners Lee tried to create the Semantic web. It's his second try after the WWW. To make the internet a place for meaningful content.

Wikidata makes it easy to link pieces of content together. Now it is described as a "knowledge base".

You can contribute to the topics you are interested in via Wikidata. For example, bonsai.
