Wikidata Walkabout is a new site (released in September) that I helped to put together. It provides a fairly simple drill-down navigation interface for Wikidata, using an approach similar to the ones I took for the Semantic Drilldown extension and for Cargo's Special:Drilldown page. This talk will cover Wikidata Walkabout, the interface philosophy behind it, how it could be used to improve Wikidata, and some potential future improvements for the site.
