CALL FOR PAPERS
SemWiki2008
3rd Workshop: 'The Wiki Way of Semantics'
June 2, 2008
http://semwiki.org/semwiki2008
EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE: MARCH 5
co-located with the 5th Annual
European Semantic Web Conference (ESWC)
http://www.eswc2008.org/
Tenerife, Spain
June 1-5, 2008
----
=== Executive Summary ===
SemWiki2008, the third workshop on Semantic Wikis, aims at reviewing the
progress that has been made in the field of Semantic Wikis since the last
workshops in 2006. We are interested in reviewing existing semantic wiki
systems against the core wiki principles and thus identifying possibilities
to improve them, in applying semantic technologies to existing wiki sites
such as Wikipedia in order to make them even more productive for mass
collaboration, but also in innovative, entirely new ideas for semantic
wikis.
Semantic Wikis try to combine the strengths of Semantic Web (machine
processable, data integration, complex queries) and Wiki (easy to use and
contribute, strongly interconnected, collaborativeness) technologies. Goals
are diverse and include:
* simple annotations of existing Wiki content;
* tools that guide users from informal knowledge contained in texts to
more formal structures;
* full-fledged tools for ontology editing where the text is no longer in
the focus of the system.
Semantic Wikis contain in an integrated fashion many of the core challenges
of the Semantic Web community: authoring, versioning, interlinked data,
semantic browsing, semantic annotating, semantic diffs, semantic search and
getting overview. In a Semantic Wiki, such methods have to be integrated
into a coherent whole, while still remaining lightweight and easy to use.
In this workshop, we investigate how these challenges can be tackled in an
integrated fashion.
=== Important Dates (all dates GMT) ===
* Paper submission: March 5, 2008
(papers, posters, demos, position papers)
* Notification of acceptance: April 4, 2008
* Camera ready deadline: April 18, 2008
* Workshop: June 2, 2008
=== Call for Contributions ===
We invite submissions as full and short papers, as well as posters/demos.
Papers should describe original, unpublished research and must not be under
review by another conference, journal, or workshop. Authors of the highest
quality contributions will be invited to present their work at the
workshop. Since Semantic Wikis are a very practical topic, we are also very
interested in poster and demo submissions. Posters and Demos should
describe
prototypical implementations of systems related to the workshop topics.
Highest quality submissions will be presented in a separate poster/demo
session.
Contributions should adhere to the following formats:
* Papers 5-15 pages
* Posters/Demos 2-5 pages
* Short/Position Papers: 2-5 pages
Papers should be formatted using the standard LNCS format and should
include an abstract of no more than 120 words.
Authors will be required to submit their camera ready versions using SALT
(semantically annotated LaTeX; http://salt.semanticauthoring.org). It
allows authors to annotate their articles directly with semantic markup.
This semantic markup will be used to extract and publish metadata of the
submissions on the Semantic Web. A specialized LaTeX template will be
provided by the workshop organisers that allows to easily add these
annotations.
=== Proceedings ===
Pre-proceedings will appear at the time of the conference online and in
print. Post-proceedings will be published in the CEUR-WS series.
=== Topics of Interest ===
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
* Text-Based Semantic Authoring
* Acquisition of Formal Knowledge from Structured Text
* Wikipedia and the Semantic Web
* Mining Wikipedia
* extending Wikipedia with semantic web features
* ...
* Collaborative Authoring of Formal Knowledge

An Analysis of Topical Coverage of Wikipedia
* Alexander Halavais & Derek Lackaff
Abstract
Many have questioned the reliability and accuracy of Wikipedia. Here a
different issue, but one closely related: how broad is the coverage of
Wikipedia? Differences in the interests and attention of Wikipedia's
editors mean that some areas, in the traditional sciences, for
example, are better covered than others. Two approaches to measuring
this coverage are presented. The first maps the distribution of topics
on Wikipedia to the distribution of books published. The second
compares the distribution of topics in three established,
field-specific academic encyclopedias to the articles found in
Wikipedia. Unlike the top-down construction of traditional
encyclopedias, Wikipedia's topical coverage is driven by the interests
of its users, and as a result, the reliability and completeness of
Wikipedia is likely to be different depending on the subject-area of
the article.
For some reason I am listed as a moderator on this mailing list. I do
read it, but I seldom have time to do moderation tasks. If there is
another moderator, perhaps he or she could remove me from moderation?
If there is no other moderator, perhaps we need one?
Not sure how I neglected to forward this here. :-)

will be held from '''July 17-19, 2008''' in
Alexandria, Egypt at the new Library of
Alexandria (Bibliotheca Alexandrina).
For more information, please visit the Wikimania 2008 Home page at
http://wikimania2008.wikimedia.org
We are accepting submissions for presentations, workshops, panels,
posters, open spaces, and artistic artifacts. Please carefully follow
the submission guidelines below. Submissions can be sent via the
following link:
:https://wikimedia.pentabarf.org/submission/wikimania2008
=== Important dates ===
* 1 February – 16 March : Submission
* 17 March – 30 April : Review, feedback and notification of acceptance
* 17 – 19 July 2007 : '''Wikimania'''
=== Conference Tracks ===
Submissions should address one or more of the following themes:
; Wikimedia Communities : Interesting projects and particularities
within the communities; policy creation within individual projects;
conflict resolution and community dynamics; reputation and identity;
multi-lingualism, languages and cultures; social studies. We
explicitly invite you to discuss your local Wikimedia project's
community.
; Free Knowledge : Open access to information; ways to gather and
distribute free knowledge, usage of the Wikimedia projects in
education, journalism, research; ways to improve content quality and
usability; copyright laws and other legal areas that interfere with
Wikimedia projects. Free Content in the Middle-East/Africa.
; Technical infrastructure : Issues related to MediaWiki development
and extensions; Wikimedia's technical infrastructure; new ideas for
development (including case studies from other wikis or similar
projects).
; Scientific track : Papers about massively collaborative work, open
and free content creation, community dynamics, the social or economic
aspects of the Wikimedia projects, and other topics related to
Wikimedia projects. Papers submitted to the scientific track will be
peer reviewed by a reviewing committee regarding their novelty,
rigour, and estimated impact, and accepted or rejected based on these
reviews. The papers will be published in proceedings afterwards, and
depending on the number and the quality of the submissions, a journal
special issue may be pursued. Scientific track papers must be in
English, and must not exceed 7,500 words (or 15 pages LNCS).
Your topic must be related either to the Wikimedia projects and their
communities, or to the creation of free content in general.
=== Types of Submissions ===
We are seeking submissions for
* presentations (10–30 minute talks with discussion afterwards)
* workshops (60–120 minute session with more involvement of the audience)
* panels (group of 2-5 speakers to discuss on a specific subject)
* posters (printed presentations or visual displays that can stand on their own)
* artistic artifacts (plays, competitions, comedy, visualizations, or
other representations of some aspect of the projects)
In addition there will the possibility to give [[lightning talks]] (5
minute short presentations). These will be organized on the Wikimania
2008 wiki without need to submit via the submission system.
=== Submission Guidelines ===
Wikimania is organized by volunteers, so please help us minimize
wasted effort by submitting via the [[submission]] system and
following these guidelines. All submissions MUST explicitly include
the following:
# an English "Event title"
# a short English "Abstract" of your event in 50 to 100 words. The
abstract will be used for the public schedule.
# the "Track" your submission fits in best (Wikimedia Communities,
Free Knowledge, Technical infrastructure, or Scientific)
# the "Event type" (presentation, workshop, panel, poster, artistic...)
# information about the speaker (full name, email, a short description
of at least 2 sentences...)
# for submissions to the scientific track: set "Submission of paper
for proceedings" to "yes" and upload a paper instead of the
"Description" below as "Attachment". Papers must be in English, and
must not exceed 7,500 words.
In addition you can add some more information like a a subtitle of the
event, an image (will be resized to 128x128px) and private "Submission
notes" for reviewers and conference organisation. In particular you
should give:
* a more detailed "Description" of your event in English or Arabic.
The description is essential for review: please give an overview of
the areas to be covered or taught. The better you describe your
submission, the more likely it will get accepted. State clearly the
relevance to the Wikimedia projects and whether submission concerns a
specific wiki project. You can also include links. The description
will later be used for the public schedule but you can edit it before.
* special requirements (such as equipment for a workshop or panel) if needed
* the language used for presentation
* whether you want to submit a paper for proceedings
* whether you want to submit presentation slides
* whether the presentation is intended to be a specific length
* the target audience you are going to reach and what previous
knowledge is needed
* images or sketches of the poster or artistic artifact if available
* for panel submissions a suggested moderator and short biographies of
each suggested panelist
In the "Submission notes" you should tell us whether you will attend
to Wikimania (a) surely, (b) probably, (c) only if your submission is
accepted, or (d) only if we provide travel and/or accommodation. You
can also add yourself to the public list of attendees at the Wikimania
2008 wiki: http://wikimania2008.wikimedia.org/wiki/Attendees

WIKIPEDIA AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: AN EVOLVING
SYNERGY
http://lit.csci.unt.edu/~wikiai08
CALL FOR PAPERS
OVERVIEW
Since its inception less than seven years ago, Wikipedia has become one of the
largest and fastest
growing online sources of encyclopedic knowledge. One of the reasons why
Wikipedia is
appealing to contributors and users alike is the richness of its embedded
structural information:
articles are hyperlinked to each other and connected to categories from an ever
expanding
taxonomy; pervasive language phenomena such as synonymy and polysemy are
addressed
through redirection and disambiguation pages; entities of the same type are
described in a
consistent format using infoboxes; related articles are grouped together in
series templates.
As a large-scale repository of structured knowledge, Wikipedia has become a
valuable resource
for a diverse set of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications. Major
conferences in natural language
processing and machine learning have recently witnessed a significant number of
approaches that
use Wikipedia for tasks ranging from text categorization and clustering to word
sense
disambiguation, information retrieval, information extraction and question
answering. On the
other hand, Wikipedia can greatly benefit from numerous algorithms and
representation models
developed during decades of AI research, as illustrated recently in tasks such
as estimating the
reliability of authors' contributions, automatic linking of articles, or
intelligent matching of
Wikipedia tasks with potential contributors.
The goal of the workshop is to foster the research and dissemination of ideas on
the mutually
beneficial interaction between Wikipedia and AI. The workshop is intended to be
highly
interdisciplinary. We encourage participation of researchers working on
Wikipedia from different
perspectives, including (but not limited to) machine learning, computational
linguistics,
information retrieval, information extraction, question answering, knowledge
representation, and
others. We also encourage participation of researchers from other areas who
might benefit from
the use of a large body of machine-readable knowledge.
TOPICS
We invite submissions of papers addressing the following or related topics::
- Using Wikipedia as a source of training data for AI tasks (both supervised an
unsupervised)
- Automatic methods for improving the quality of Wikipedia pages
- Integrating Wikipedia with existing ontologies (e.g. WordNet, CYC, ODP)
- Extracting annotated data from Wikipedia
- Enriching Wikipedia with new types of structural information
- Wikipedia and the Semantic Web / Web 2.0
- Automatic extraction and use of cross-lingual information from Wikipedia
- Computerized use of satellite projects such as Wiktionary, Wikibooks or
Wikispecies
WORKSHOP FORMAT
The day long workshop will consist of presentations, demos showcasing work
presented in
the research papers, and a panel session. The workshop will also feature an
invited talk by
Dr. Michael Witbrock, Vice President of Research at Cycorp, where he works on
the Cyc project.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
We invite submissions of regular full papers (up to 6 pages), short papers
reporting on late-
breaking results (up to 3 pages), and descriptions of system demonstrations (up
to 1 page) using
the AAAI style. Submissions that have been accepted for publication elsewhere or
are under
review for another conference must clearly state so on the front page of the
paper.
IMPORTANT DATES
Deadline for long papers submission March 21, 2008
Deadline for short papers and system demos April 7, 2008
Notification of acceptance April 21, 2008
