Hi,
A while back I attended a Wikimedia/BHL online editathon focused on adding images and captions in French, Portuguese, and Spanish. An organization I'm part of, Translate Science https://translatescience.org, is planning to have a series of online volunteer activities in 2026. As you might guess from our name, we want to focus on volunteer activities related to science and translation. We thought this type of event could be a good fit.
Would anyone from this group be interested in partnering with us to host an event like this? We're picturing perhaps a 90-minute event. We're a small group, but we would publicize it to our community and through our social media, and you'd be welcome to do the same. It would be great to have someone knowledgeable about BHL and/or the Wikimedia aspects of the partnership present, and we're open to discuss the role you would play in leading the session. If this interests you, please reach out to us at info(a)translatescience.org mailto:info@translate
Yours,
Jennifer/JMMaok
Please note: To avoid a scheduling conflict with the Living Data conference in October, the monthly Community Calls are being rescheduled to the 5th Thursday (October 30).
Updating the BHL Partner Call invites to reflect change to BHL Community Call, in alignment with the Transition Communication Plan
BHL Community Calls: Partners, Staff, and Working Group Members
Starting in May, the BHL Partner Calls will become Community Calls. These “all-hands” call will be open to partners, staff, and working group members and will provide a space for broad information sharing, cross-team engagement, and transparent communication. We will continue offering the calls at two times each month through at least the end of 2025 to support broad participation across time zones.

Please help out a sparql newbie!
I have the following query to select identifiers for BHL Titles:
SELECT DISTINCT ?TitleID ?Wikidata ?OCLC ?ISSN ?Linking_ISSN ?ISBN13 ?ISBN10 ?Coden ?DLC ?NLM ?TL2 ?DOI WHERE {
SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE]". }
{
SELECT DISTINCT ?item WHERE {
?item p:P4327 ?statement0.
?statement0 ps:P4327 _:anyValueP4327.
}
}
BIND(REPLACE(STR(?item), "http://www.wikidata.org/entity/", "") AS ?Wikidata )
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P4327 ?TitleID. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P243 ?OCLC. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P236 ?ISSN. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P7363 ?Linking_ISSN. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P212 ?ISBN13. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P957 ?ISBN10. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P1159 ?Coden. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P244 ?DLC. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P1055 ?NLM. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P5878 ?TL2. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P356 ?DOI. }
}
It seems to work, as it returns about 170K unique identifiers for about 64K titles.
However, after adding those identifiers to a BHL database table where I could compare the data to what is already in BHL, I found that some items are missing from the sparql result.
For example, Q51512257 is associated with BHL Title 88, Q54792313 with BHL TItle 100, and Q51399752 with BHL Title 1231. The query above does not return any of those wikidata items. I modified the query to return just one of those wikidata items...
SELECT DISTINCT ?item ?TitleID ?Wikidata ?OCLC ?ISSN ?Linking_ISSN ?ISBN13 ?ISBN10 ?Coden ?DLC ?NLM ?TL2 ?DOI WHERE {
BIND(wd:Q51512257 AS ?item)
SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE]". }
BIND(REPLACE(STR(?item), "http://www.wikidata.org/entity/", "") AS ?Wikidata )
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P4327 ?TitleID. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P243 ?OCLC. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P236 ?ISSN. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P7363 ?Linking_ISSN. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P212 ?ISBN13. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P957 ?ISBN10. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P1159 ?Coden. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P244 ?DLC. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P1055 ?NLM. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P5878 ?TL2. }
OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P356 ?DOI. }
}
... and it did return the item, but no identifier values. Viewing https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q51512257 shows that the item does in fact have a DOI, BHL Bibliography ID (Title ID), and OCLC Control Number.
So, what is going wrong? Is there something wrong with my query, or is there something unusual about those items? (Or, I guess... both... is there something unusual that my query is not accounting for?)
Thanks in advance!
MIKE
