Dear All,
My name is Dorothy Howard and I'm a Wikipedian-in-Residence at a library consortium called METROhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/Metropolitan_New_York_Library_Councilin New York.
I'm reaching out because I have a friend and colleague from a non-Wikipedia job that is interested specifically in qualitative data visualization and is a researcher at the Parsons Institute for Information Mapping at the New School.
After attending the Chapters Dialogue conference in Berlin and seeing the result of the WMF sponsored chapters dialogue research, a portion of which was qualitative- I became more interested in thinking about how we can use qualitative (not exclusively- also interested in quantitative) data visualization to model our movement on a national or even more local scale.
My colleague at the New School is interested in pursuing this type of research and I am writing to inquire for someone to talk with more about these matters and the potential to develop some steps forward. I'm interested in projects such as "https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Measuring_community_health:_Vital_signs_for_Wikimedia_projectsMeasuring community health: Vital signs for Wikimedia projects,"https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Measuring_community_health:_Vital_signs_for_Wikimedia_projectsthat the Analytics team has proposed, but when it comes specifically to GLAMs, I am interested in doing analytics about the relationships between GLAMs and Wikipedia, and the networks of knowledge and exchange which occur. I do not know if this type of research is already being done, but I would appreciate links to any such related research.
Would love to talk more to someone working on or interested in similar things.
Thanks,
Dorothy
