Cooperation with Wende Museum
by Lilli Iliev 10 Dec '15

10 Dec '15

Hi all, I´m reaching out because German GLAM volunteer Nicola got in touch with the director of The Wende Museum <http://www.wendemuseum.org/> based in Culver City, California. (Nicola wrote the DE-WP-article, too: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wende_Museum) The director highly enthusiatic about collaborating with "Wikipedia" resp. Wikimedia volunteers. He´d like to open up the collections so that everyone is invited to curate and build the database. So there´s good preconditions for activities like editathons e.g. Is anyone interested in getting in touch with Nicola in order to start the conversation with the museum? If so, send me an email and I´ll set it up. Maybe someone would be interested in presenting possibilities for collaborating with the volunteer communities? Any hints or ideas here are welcome!

Fwd: [Wikimedia-l] "Wikipedia as the front matter to all research": A brown bag on scholarly citations in Wikipedia this Friday 12/4 @ 12 PT
by Pine W 02 Dec '15

May be of interest to GLAM folks. Pine ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dario Taraborelli <dtaraborelli(a)wikimedia.org> Date: Wed, Dec 2, 2015 at 11:01 AM Subject: [Wikimedia-l] "Wikipedia as the front matter to all research": A brown bag on scholarly citations in Wikipedia this Friday 12/4 @ 12 PT To: wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org, Research into Wikimedia content and communities <wiki-research-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Come and join us for a brown bag this Friday December 4 at 12 PT to learn about unique identifiers and scholarly citations in Wikipedia, why they matter and how we can bridge the gap between the Wikimedia, research and librarian communities. Wikipedia as the front matter to all research YouTube stream: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB_oexqz8pA < http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB_oexqz8pA> Event information on Meta: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_as_the_front_matter_to_all_resear… < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_as_the_front_matter_to_all_resear… > Measuring citizen engagement with the scholarly literature through Wikipedia citations. Geoffrey Bilder, CrossRef Wikipedia (in toto) is probably the 5th largest referrer of citations to the scholarly literature. That is, more Wikipedia users click on and follow citations to the scholarly literature *from* Wikipedia domains than from any single scholarly publisher in the world. What does this tell us about general interest in the scholarly literature? What does this tell us about scholarly engagement with editing Wikipedia articles? The short answer is “we don’t know.” But we are actively working with Wikimedia to find out. Building the sum of all human citations Dario Taraborelli, WIkimedia Foundation As sourcing and verifiability of online information are threatened < http://www.slideshare.net/dartar/citing-as-a-public-service-building-the-su…> by the explosion of answer engines and the changing habits of web users, Wikimedia has an outstanding opportunity to extract and store source data for every conceivable statement and make it transparently verifiable by its users.

Hi Maarten, Thanks, those overlays looks pretty nice! I'll check out the warper as well Best, Olaf ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Sat, 21 Nov 2015 17:43:54 +0100 From: Maarten Dammers <maarten(a)mdammers.nl> To: glam(a)lists.wikimedia.org Hi Olaf, That looks like a nice collection of maps! I added a couple to the Wikimaps Warper. See for example https://warper.wmflabs.org/maps/221#Preview_tab . For people who want to play around with the Warper too: * Go to https://warper.wmflabs.org and login. Select Oauth Wikimedia Commons * Go to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Media_contributed_by_Tweede_Kam… and pick a map * Edit the source, change "| warped = " to "| warped = 1" and save it * You'll now have a link "View the georeferenced map in the Wikimaps Warper", click it * Go to the "Rectify" tab * You'll get two maps. On the left the old map, on the right the current OpenStreetMap (https://warper.wmflabs.org/maps/221#Rectify_tab) * Put a point on the same location on both maps (for example a city) and click "Add Control Point" * Do this for at least three points, but more is better. Try to spread them around the map * Click "Warp image" and wait * Go to the "Preview" tab to see your work (https://warper.wmflabs.org/maps/221#Preview_tab) Maarten Op 20-11-2015 om 15:42 schreef Olaf Janssen: > > Hi, > > This might be interesting for those interested in Dutch (colonial) > history: last week I did an donation of 512 maps and images from the > proceedings of the Dutch Parliament (the so-called States General > <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:States_General_of_the_Netherlands>. > They are from the period 1885-1995. > > The images are in Category:Media contributed by Tweede Kamer > <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Media_contributed_by_Tweede_Kam…>. > Every image has geo coordinates for the map centre. > > The set has some unique content, not only about the Netherlands, but > also about its former colonies Dutch East-Indies (now Indonesia) and > Suriname.

[Image donation] 512 maps and images from the proceedings of the Dutch Parliament 1885-1995
by Olaf Janssen 23 Nov '15

23 Nov '15

Hi, This might be interesting for those interested in Dutch (colonial) history: last week I did an donation of 512 maps and images from the proceedings of the Dutch Parliament (the so-called States General<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:States_General_of_the_Netherlands>. They are from the period 1885-1995. The images are in Category:Media contributed by Tweede Kamer<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Media_contributed_by_Tweede_Kam…>. Every image has geo coordinates for the map centre. The set has some unique content, not only about the Netherlands, but also about its former colonies Dutch East-Indies (now Indonesia) and Suriname. Themes include the Delta Works, polders, land reclamation and the construction of roads, railways, and ports. To foster reuse, I started assigning thematic categories to some images, for example Eastern Scheldt<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Eastern_Scheldt>, Delta Works<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Delta_Works>, Canals in Friesland<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Canals_in_Friesland>, IJsselmeer<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:IJsselmeer> and Railway lines in the Netherlands<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Railway_lines_in_the_Netherlands> Met vriendelijke groet / With kind regards Olaf Janssen Wikipedia & open data coordinator Koninklijke Bibliotheek - National Library of the Netherlands olaf.janssen(a)kb.nl<mailto:olaf.janssen@kb.nl> +31 (0)70 3140 388 @ookgezellig www.slideshare.net/OlafJanssenNL<http://www.slideshare.net/OlafJanssenNL> [Koninklijke Bibliotheek, National Library of the Netherlands] Prins Willem-Alexanderhof 5 | 2595 BE Den Haag Postbus 90407 | 2509 LK Den Haag | (070) 314 09 11 | www.kb.nl<http://www.kb.nl/> [http://www.kb.nl/sites/default/files/dots.jpg] English version<http://www.kb.nl/en/email> | Disclaimer<http://www.kb.nl/disclaimer>
