Call for papers: Semantic Web Journal Special Issue on
Wikidata: Construction, Evaluation and Applications
Wikidata is an openly available knowledge base, hosted by the Wikimedia
Foundation. It can be accessed and edited by both humans and machines and
acts as a common structured-data repository for several Wikimedia projects,
including Wikipedia, Wiktionary, and Wikisource. It is used in a variety of
semantic web applications by researchers and practitioners alike.
In recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of publications
around Wikidata. While there are several dedicated venues for the broader
Wikidata community to meet, none of them focuses on publishing
comprehensive, peer-reviewed research. This special issue fills this gap -
we hope to provide a forum to build this fledgling scientific community and
promote novel work and resources that support it.
The special issue seeks original contributions and extended conference
papers that address the opportunities and challenges of creating,
contributing to, and using the global, collaborative, open-domain,
multilingual knowledge graph Wikidata.
Topics
Topics of submissions include, but are not limited to:
- Data quality and vandalism detection in Wikidata
- Referencing in Wikidata
- Anomaly, bias, or novelty detection in Wikidata
- Algorithms for aligning Wikidata with other structured or
semi-structured resources
- Representation, Semantic Annotation, Enhancement and Enrichments using
Wikidata
- Semantic Parsing and Question Answering using Wikidata
- The Semantic Web and Wikidata
- Community interaction in Wikidata
- Multilingual data in Wikidata and its reuse
- Data quality in Wikidata: Approaches for problem detection, evaluation
and improvement
- Tools, bots, and datasets for improving or evaluating Wikidata
- Participation, diversity, and inclusivity aspects in the Wikidata
ecosystem
- Human-bot interaction
- Managing knowledge evolution in Wikidata
- Abstract Wikipedia
- Wikidata in NLP applications
Deadline
- Submission deadline: 14 February 2023 (extended!). Papers submitted
before the deadline will be reviewed upon receipt.

NMR 2023
September 2-4, 2023
Rhodes, Greece
* Deadlines: 2 June & 9 June 2023*
==============================
The 21st International Workshop on Nonmonotonic Reasoning (NMR)
http://nmr.krportal.org/2023/
September 2-4, 2023, Rhodes, Greece
NMR 2023 is part of the 20th International Conference on Principles of
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR2023), https://kr.org/KR2023/.
NMR is the premier forum for results in the area of nonmonotonic
reasoning. Its aim is to bring together active researchers in this broad
field within knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR), including
belief revision, uncertain reasoning, reasoning about actions, planning,
logic programming, preferences, deontic reasoning, argumentation,
causality, and many other related topics including systems and
applications (see NMR page, https://nmr.cs.tu-dortmund.de/).
NMR has a long history - it started in 1984 and has been held every two
years until 2020 and then every year. Recent previous NMR workshops were
held in Haifa (2022), Hanoi (virtual, 2021), in Rhodes (virtual, 2020),
Tempe (2018) and Cape Town (2016). Since 2020 NMR is being held
annually. NMR workshops are usually co-located with the KR conferences
(kr.org).
As in previous editions, NMR 2023 aims to foster connections between the
different subareas of nonmonotonic reasoning and provide a forum for
emerging topics. We especially invite papers on systems and
applications, as well as position papers and papers addressing benchmark
issues. The workshop will be structured by topical sessions fitting to
the scopes of accepted papers.
The workshop will be held in Rhodes, Greece, in September 2-4, 2023.
Workshop activities will include invited talks and presentations of
technical papers.
-- Submission Information --
There are two types of submissions:
Full papers. Full papers should be at most 10 pages including
references, figures and appendices, if any. Papers already published or
accepted for publication at other conferences are also welcome, provided
that the original publication is mentioned in a footnote on the first
page and the submission at NMR falls within the authors’ rights. In the
same vein, papers under review for other conferences can be submitted
with a similar indication on their front page.
Extended Abstracts. Extended abstracts should be at most 3 pages.
The abstracts should introduce work that has recently been published or
is under review, or ongoing research at an advanced stage. We highly
encourage to attach to the submission a preprint/postprint or a
technical report. Such extra material will be read at the discretion of
the reviewers. Submitting already published material may require a
permission by the copyright holder.
All submissions should be formatted in CEUR style (2-column style)
without enabled header and footer. The author kit can be found at
http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip. Papers must be submitted in PDF
only. Submission will be through the EasyChair conference system. Please
submit via Easychair to: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=nmr2023

Hi wiki-research-l folks,
Can the list point me in the right direction about how researchers should
solicit off-wiki interviews? I'm seeking to interview editors of English
Wikipedia who have provided information about scientific and technical
topics. I'm struggling to find up-to-date documentation about expectations
for researchers...
Currently the focus is COVID-19; in future years the focus will shift to
climate change; and AI and labor. Overall the project seeks to understand
how knowledge brokers (including Wikipedia editors) assess the quality of
technical and scientific information. This is part of my 3-year, US-based,
IRB-approved research study:
https://infoqualitylab.org/projects/knowledgebrokers/participate-y1
My inclination (in the absence of specific best practice directions) would
be to post a message the Talk pages of the most obvious WikiProjects, with
information about the project and how to reach me:
WikiProject COVID-19
WikiProject Medicine / Pulmonology
WikiProject Viruses
WikiProject Disaster management
Is that appropriate? I'd welcome a pointer to specific requirements or best
practices. Offline advice also welcome!

Hi all,
As part of our efforts to better serve the Wikimedia research community, we
are happy to share that we are collaborating with the Security team at WMF
to help prioritize the release of data that can be useful for your
research. The Security team is working to make more datasets privatized and
public to avoid the need for non-disclosure agreements. You can learn more
here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Differential_privacy.
Over the next 12 months, the Security team plans to release 5 datasets:
-
country-language-pageview ongoing (end of 2022)
-
country-language-pageview historical (March 2023)
-
geo-aggregated grants data back to 2009 (Feb 2023)
-
geoeditors monthly (June 2023)
-
dataset informed by research community priorities identified in this
survey (second half of 2023)
The released datasets need to meet certain privacy requirements:
-
They can not include any natural language (e.g. specific search queries
or deletion logs) so as to avoid the release of personally identifiable
information;
-
They need to be sufficiently large (at least thousands of entries,
preferably more) so as to reduce noise;
-
The data can not be so sensitive that an individual user will be harmed
by disclosure of the data (e.g. IP addresses, content containing personally
identifying information).
We invite you to complete a brief survey
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe_LAt6V2Q1GUf3Z8lnt8uAOZnHTO5rNgF…>
to help us identify and prioritize the types of datasets that you would
find useful for your work. Results of this survey will inform the fifth
dataset, scheduled to be released in late 2023. This survey is conducted
via a third-party service, which may subject it to additional terms. For
more information on privacy and data-handling, see the survey privacy
statement:
https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Legal:Data_Release_Priorities_Survey_…
The survey will remain open until November 3, 2022. After that time,
members of the Research and Security teams will review the data and report
out about the suggestions that were received and how the work will proceed.
If you prefer to not respond via the Google form, you can email your
feedback to us or set up a time to discuss. You can also leave questions
and comments on the Talk page:

Vital Signsː Measuring Wikipedia Communities’ HealthBy *Cristian Consonni,
Eurecat - Centre Tecnològic de Catalunya, Barcelona*Community health in
Wikipedia is a complex topic that has been at the center of discussion for
Wikipedia and the scientific community for years. Researchers observed that
the number of active editors for the largest Wikipedias started declining
after an initial phase of exponential growth. Some media outlets picked
this fact as a death announcement for the project, but the news of
Wikipedia's death turned out to be greatly exaggerated. However, it remains
true that researchers and community activists need to understand how to
measure community health and describe it more accurately. In this
presentation, we would like to go beyond the traditional metrics used to
describe the status of the community. We propose the creation of 6 sets of
language-independent indicators that we call "Vital Signs." We borrow the
analogy from the medical field, as these indicators represent a first step
in defining the health status of a community; they can constitute a
valuable reference point to foresee and prevent future risks. We present
our analysis for several Wikipedia language editions, showing that
communities renew their productive force even with stagnating absolute
numbers; we observe a general need for renewal in positions related to
particular functions or administratorship. We created a dashboard to
visualize all the indicators we have computed and hope that the communities
will find it helpful for improving their health.

Learning to Predict the Departure Dynamics of Wikidata EditorsBy *Guangyuan
Piao, Maynooth University*Wikidata as one of the largest open collaborative
knowledge bases has drawn much attention from researchers and practitioners
since its launch in 2012. As it is collaboratively developed and maintained
by a community of a great number of volunteer editors, understanding and
predicting the departure dynamics of those editors are crucial but have not
been studied extensively in previous works. In this paper, we investigate
the synergistic effect of two different types of features: statistical and
pattern-based ones with DeepFM as our classification model which has not
been explored in a similar context and problem for predicting whether a
Wikidata editor will stay or leave the platform. Our experimental results
show that using the two sets of features with DeepFM provides the best
performance regarding AUROC (0.9561) and F1 score (0.8843), and achieves
substantial improvement compared to using either of the sets of features
and over a wide range of baselines.

*Paper Types and Formats*
JCDL 2023 offers two paper submission deadlines: Submissions for
research papers (long or short) are due on January 29, 2023. The
deadline for late-breaking results and datasets is February
12, 2023. The submission formats are outlined below.
*Research Papers* (deadline: January 29, 2023)
Authors may choose between two formats:
- /Full papers/ have at most 10 pages and report on mature work, or
efforts that have reached an important milestone. They will get
presentation slots of 20 to 30 minutes.
- /Short papers/ have at most 4 pages and highlight efforts that might
be in an early stage, but are important for the community to
be made
aware of; they can also present theories or systems that can be
described concisely in the limited space. Short papers will get
presentation slots of 10 to 15 minutes.
*Late Breaking Results and Datasets* (deadline: February 12, 2023)
This comprises submissions falling into the following categories:
- /Late breaking results/ present new insights or information about
research that was completed after the research paper submission
deadline.
- /Dataset submissions/ a new category that allow description of
relevant research datasets. These need to be either fully
publicly
available or have to contain a publicly available subset.
Late Breaking Results and Datasets submissions should be 2-4 pages and
will be allotted a 5 minute presentation slot at the conference.
*Submission Guidelines*
All submissions must be original works, not previously published or
under review for publication elsewhere, in English, in PDF format, and
in the current ACM two-column conference format. Suitable LaTeX, Word,
and Overleaf templates are available from the ACM Website (use
"sigconf" proceedings template for LaTeX and the Interim Template for
Word, https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template).
Complete papers are required; submissions consisting solely of an
abstract or those that are otherwise incomplete will not be reviewed.
For all formats, references do not count to the page
limit. Submissions are to be made via
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jcdl2023
*All submissions will be rigorously peer-reviewed in a double-blind
reviewing process.*
*Submissions must be anonymous* and all references to authors' works
have to be anonymized. We recommend using services like
https://anonymous.4open.science/ to anonymously share code or
data. Anonymized works that are available as preprints (e.g., on arXiv
or SSRN) may be submitted without citing them. Reviewers will be
instructed not to actively look for such preprints, and finding such a
preprint does not clash with our submission policies.
All accepted papers will be included in the proceedings and will be
presented at the conference. At least one author of each accepted
paper is required to register for, and present the work at the
conference on-site in Santa Fe. In case of traveling restrictions
(COVID related or otherwise), an exception may be made to allow
authors to present the work remotely.
*Calls for workshops and tutorials, posters and demos, and panels will
be published separately.*
*Submission Deadlines*
All dates are Anywhere on Earth (AoE)
- January 29, 2023 – Research paper submissions
- February 12, 2023 – Late breaking results, preliminary works,
