Thanks to the collaboration of Euskal Wikilarien Kultur Elkartea and Elhuyar, the Basque language is the sixth language of all the languages present on Wiki, in number of lines (lexemas), the second in number of verbal forms (taking into account all the forms of the decline of each one of them), and it is the main language in terms of the number of meanings, in front of Spanish, among others.

Wliquidata is a large database edited in collaboration. It's run by the Wikimedia Foundation, so it can be used in its projects to feed Wikipedia.

Since the launch of Wlikata in 2012, we have been feeding progressively. Among others, nearly two years ago we incorporated some 6,500 concepts from the Encyclopedic Dictionary of Science and Technology, as well as Teknopolis videos.

In recent years, Wliquidata has begun to store new types of data, in many languages, in a structure similar to dictionaries. All this information is divided into three groups: root words (vocabulary entries or lexemes), forms (forms that each word can adopt depending on the decline case), meanings or definitions.

Thanks to the collaboration between the Wikilarien Kultur Elkartea and Elhuyar Cultural Association, several words or lexemes (of the category name) of the Elhuyar Student Dictionary have been added in Wlikita. In total, 10,000 lexemes have been added, 65 forms of each (in all cases of decline, singular, plural and indefinite) and their definitions.

Thanks to this work, it is now easier to identify the words in Euskera in Wikipedia texts, for example, and it will soon be possible to make new technological developments from these databases.

The programming code developed by the Elhuyar R&D team for this work is available at GitHub.
