Hi all,
We had a lot of conversations about the Wikidata ontology during Wikidata
Data Quality Days and WikidataCon. One issue came up again and again: New
users unintentionally modifying the Wikidata ontology leads to errors and
inconsistency. We would like to get your input about a first step that we
propose to improve this situation.
What we are proposing
We are proposing to introduce a dedicated section on Item pages for
classifying Properties. This section, named "Classification", will live
below the Termbox and above the “Statements” section. The new section will
make it more obvious that some Properties are special and modify the
ontology. For consistency we will also have this section on Property pages.
This first step will only involve the display of statements after saving.
We might consider making deeper changes to the UI and recommendation system
at a later time, based on your experience with this change.
Please add your input directly to this ticket
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T295275> so that we can collect all of
your thoughts in one place.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
Cheers,
--

Dear all,
the following search gives you a list of members (of the Strict Observance) with their respective birth years.
https://tinyurl.com/yj87vvhp
I was trying to give an age profile of this group at a certain moment in time (1780) but my script changes failed.
This is something I can do by adapting a nice WD-query (Age of all human beings on FactGrid, age of death):
https://tinyurl.com/yhzquxwf
But my attempt to use a date instead of the age at death failed
https://tinyurl.com/yzc75fzv
...I have a vague idea why the replacement does not work that way, but no idea what the proper query would look like.
Best wishes,
Olaf
(PS a distribution by birth years might be just as nice and far easier that the computation...)

Call for Workshop Proposals
===========================
IMPORTANT DATES
---------------
- Submission of proposals: 29 January, 2022 (23h 59 AoE)
- Notification of proposal acceptance: 12 February, 2022 (23h 59 AoE)
CALL
---------------
ICWE’22 is inviting proposals for high-quality workshops to complement its scientific program. Workshop topics should fall within the broad area of Web Engineering, but we specifically welcome workshops tackling novel, cutting-edge topics as well as workshops covering focused Web Engineering sub-areas, and cross-disciplinary workshops. The workshop organizers are highly encouraged to include interactive and hands-on working sessions.
The organizers of approved workshops are responsible for advertising their workshops, collecting papers, managing the review process, making accepted papers available to workshop participants (e.g., workshop website), and collecting the camera-ready copies and copyright forms of accepted papers (verifying that they comply with formatting rules). Organizers are expected to be present to attend, run, and manage their workshops. Conference facilities such as meeting rooms, wireless Internet and meals will be provided by the local organizers.
ICWE’22 provides workshop organizers with the opportunity to publish workshop proceedings as part of its dedicated post-workshop proceedings volume to appear in Springer’s LNCS series. Typically, workshop papers are 12 pages long and peer-reviewed; other forms of contributions can be discussed with the workshop chairs. Organizers who prefer to publish their own proceedings are of course welcome as well.

SUBMISSIONS TO THE RESEARCH TRACK
---------------
This call addresses research contributions in one of the following categories:
* Full papers: mature, original research contribution. Reported results must be supported by some type of validation, and also include a justification about the choice/suitability of the validation method. In addition, evidence of use in practice and/or demonstration of scalability is regarded as a plus. (15 pages)
* Short papers: short papers presenting a discussion – analysis, criticism, proposal, etc. – about relevant aspects of Web engineering topics. These papers are intended to generate discussions that promise potential for research that will impact Web engineering in the coming years. (8 pages)
Papers must be formatted according to the information for Springer LNCS authors at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html and submitted in PDF format. Papers submitted to ICWE 2022 must not be under review elsewhere while under consideration for ICWE 2022, nor may have been already previously published elsewhere. Please note that we strongly discourage authors to upload their ICWE submissions to arXiv while still being under review since doing so may hamper anonymity. Submissions that are not in compliance with the required submission format or that are out of the scope of the conference will be desk rejected without reviewing.
Accepted contributions will be included into the ICWE 2022 Springer LNCS proceedings. The best papers will be selected to be proposed, in extended form, as part of a special issue of the Journal of Web Engineering.
Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ guidelines and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a Consent-to-Publish form, through which the copyright for their paper is transferred to Springer.
Submissions and reviewing are supported by the EasyChair system at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icwe2022.

Hi David and team,
In Yi Liu's tool, Wikidata Property Explorer, I noticed that the query
performance could be better ideally. Currently the query takes about 9
seconds and I'm asking if there might be anything to help reduce that
considerably? Refactoring query for optimization, backend changes,
anything you can think of Davd?
