Good day, Do any of you have success stories of data dumps, especially from governmental sources, into Wikidata that have been used to create something useful after that, especially on Wikipedia? Thank you, Jean-Philippe Béland Vice President, Wikimedia Canada

GLAMWiki Conference 2018: Extension of Content Submission Deadline Till May 7th.
by Shani Evenstein 01 May '18

01 May '18

Dear all, *Deadline extension* The program committee is looking to create a diverse GLAM conference that truly serves the global community. To achieve this goal, we would like to accept submissions not only from established GLAM projects and communities, but also from emerging communities / developing countries / groups just starting out their GLAM endeavors. Looking at the submissions so far <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:GLAM_TLV_2018_open_submissions>, we have decided to extend the content submission <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAMTLV2018/Program> deadline *till next Monday, May 7th, at midnight *(wherever you are in the world). We are hoping this extension will encourage more submission from developing countries, emerging community and allow for a more diverse program. *Tips* In the past week I've been asked repeatedly if I have tips for good submissions. The best tip I can offer is -- no matter if your GLAM partnership / project is well established or you are just starting out, make sure your submissions offers an added value beyond "this is what we did in our project", i.e. focus on what you leaned and how it could be of use by others in the GLAM community. GLAM on, Shani.

feedback request: GLAM ontology and metadata mapping for Structured Data on Commons
by Sandra Fauconnier 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

Hi everyone! For those interested in (the admittedly a bit nerdy, but important issue of) ontologies and metadata schemes around GLAM, media files and the upcomingstructured data on Commons <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data>: there is currently afirst feedback round <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data/Get_involved/Fee…>(and probe of interest) to start working on metadata and ontology mapping on this topic for Wikimedia Commons. Why? When we are better able to 'map' the metadata schemes used by GLAMs to the (newly) structured data on Wikimedia Commons, we hope the upload and synchronization of files will become a lot smoother. Pleasecheck the request for feedback page on Commons <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data/Get_involved/Fee…>, andleave your comments on the talk page there <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Structured_data/Get_involve…>! This first feedback round runs until 4 May. All the best! Sandra
