Scientific observations and other open data are usually made available online in a tabular manner as CSVs and spreadsheets. However, users of these data face three main challenges when attempting to use these products: finding which datasets are related to a topic of interest; determining which existing information can be used to extend a given dataset; and how to share their integrated dataset results with the rest of the community. In this paper we present WDPlus, a framework designed to address these challenges by leveraging Wikidata. WDPlus allows searching for heterogeneous datasets, facilitates completing tabular data using Wikidata and proposes a mechanism to extend Wikidata in a decentralized manner.
