*The First Wikidata Workshop*
Co-located with the 19th International Conference on Semantic Web (ISWC
2020).
Date: To be announced (late October, early November)
The workshop will be held online, afternoon European time.
Website: https://wikidataworkshop.github.io/
== Important dates ==
Papers due: August 10, 2020
Notification of accepted papers: September 11, 2020
Camera-ready papers due: September 21, 2020
Workshop date: To be announced (end October/early November)
== Overview ==
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
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 original,
peer-reviewed research. This workshop 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 workshop seeks original contributions that address the opportunities
and challenges of creating, contributing to, and using a global,
collaborative, open-domain, multilingual knowledge graph such as Wikidata.
We encourage a range of submissions, including novel research, opinion
pieces, and descriptions of systems and resources, which are naturally
linked to Wikidata and its ecosystem, or enabled by it. What we’re less
interested in are works which use Wikidata alongside or in lieu of other
resources to carry out some computational task - unless the work feeds back
into the Wikidata ecosystem, for instance by improving or commenting on
some Wikidata aspect, or suggesting new design features, tools and
practices.
We welcome interdisciplinary work, as well as interesting applications
which shed light on the benefits of Wikidata and discuss areas of
improvement.
The workshop is planned as an interactive half-day event, in which most of
the time will be dedicated to discussions and exchange rather than frontal
presentations. For this reason, all accepted papers will be presented in
short talks and accompanied by a poster. We are considering online options
in response to ongoing challenges such as travel restrictions and the
recent Covid-19 pandemic.
== 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 knowledge graphs
- The Semantic Web and Wikidata
- Community interaction in Wikidata
- Multilingual aspects in Wikidata
- Machine learning approaches to improve data quality in Wikidata
- 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
== Submission guidelines ==
We welcome the following types of contributions.
- Full research paper: Novel research contributions (7-12 pages)
- Short research paper: Novel research contributions of smaller scope than
full papers (3-6 pages)
- Position paper: Well-argued ideas and opinion pieces, not yet in the
scope of a research contribution (6-8 pages)
- Resource paper: New dataset or other resource directly relevant to
Wikidata, including the publication of that resource (8-12 pages)
- Demo paper: New system critically enabled by Wikidata (6-8 pages)
Submissions must be as PDF or HTML, formatted in the style of the Springer
Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). For
details on the LNCS style, see Springer’s Author Instructions.
The papers will be peer-reviewed by at least two researchers. Accepted
papers will be published as open access papers on CEUR (we only publish to
CEUR if the authors agree to have their papers published).
Papers have to be submitted through easychair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wikidataworkshop2020

The WMF Research team has published a new pageview report of inbound
traffic coming from Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Reddit.[1]
The report contains a list of all articles that received at least 500 views
from one or more of these platforms (i.e. someone clicked a link on Twitter
that sent them directly to a Wikipedia article). The report is available
on-wiki and will be updated daily at around 14:00 UTC with traffic counts
from the previous calendar day.
We believe this report provides editors with a valuable new information
source. Daily inbound social media traffic stats can help editors monitor
edits to articles that are going viral on social media sites and/or are
being linked to by the social media platform itself in order to fact-check
disinformation and other controversial content[2][3].
The social media traffic report also contains additional public article
metadata that may be useful in the context of monitoring articles that are
receiving unexpected attention from social media sites, such as...
- the total number of pageviews (from all sources) that article received
in the same period of time
- the number of pageviews the article received from the same platform
(e.g. Facebook) the previous day (two days ago)
- the number of editors who have the page on their watchlist
- the number of editors who have watchlisted the page AND recently
visited it
We want your feedback! We have some ideas of our own for how to improve the
report, but we want to hear yours! If you have feature suggestions, please
add them here.[4] We intend to maintain this daily report for at least the
next two months. If we receive feedback that the report is useful, we are
considering making it available indefinitely.
If you have other questions about the report, please first check out our
(still growing) FAQ [5]. All questions, comments, concerns, ideas, etc. are
welcome on the project talkpage on Meta.[4]

Hi all,
The next Research Showcase will be live-streamed on Wednesday, May 20, at
9:30 AM PDT/16:30 UTC.
This month we will learn about recent research on machine learning systems
that rely on human supervision for their learning and optimization -- a
research area commonly referred to as Human-in-the-Loop ML. In the first
talk, Jie Yang will present a computational framework that relies on
crowdsourcing to identify influencers in Social Networks (Twitter) by
selectively obtaining labeled data. In the second talk, Estelle Smith will
discuss the role of the community in maintaining ORES, the machine learning
system that predicts the quality in Wikipedia applications.
YouTube stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nDiu2ebdOI
As usual, you can join the conversation on IRC at #wikimedia-research. You
can also watch our past research showcases here:

This month's presentations:
*OpenCrowd: A Human-AI Collaborative Approach for Finding Social
Influencers via Open-Ended Answers Aggregation*
By: Jie Yang, Amazon (current), Delft University of Technology (starting
soon)
Finding social influencers is a fundamental task in many online
applications ranging from brand marketing to opinion mining. Existing
methods heavily rely on the availability of expert labels, whose collection
is usually a laborious process even for domain experts. Using open-ended
questions, crowdsourcing provides a cost-effective way to find a large
number of social influencers in a short time. Individual crowd workers,
however, only possess fragmented knowledge that is often of low quality. To
tackle those issues, we present OpenCrowd, a unified Bayesian framework
that seamlessly incorporates machine learning and crowdsourcing for
effectively finding social influencers. To infer a set of influencers,
OpenCrowd bootstraps the learning process using a small number of expert
labels and then jointly learns a feature-based answer quality model and the
reliability of the workers. Model parameters and worker reliability are
updated iteratively, allowing their learning processes to benefit from each
other until an agreement on the quality of the answers is reached. We
derive a principled optimization algorithm based on variational inference
with efficient updating rules for learning OpenCrowd parameters.
Experimental results on finding social influencers in different domains
show that our approach substantially improves the state of the art by 11.5%
AUC. Moreover, we empirically show that our approach is particularly useful
in finding micro-influencers, who are very directly engaged with smaller
audiences.

*Keeping Community in the Machine-Learning Loop*
By: C. Estelle Smith, MS, PhD Candidate, GroupLens Research Lab at the
University of Minnesota
On Wikipedia, sophisticated algorithmic tools are used to assess the
quality of edits and take corrective actions. However, algorithms can fail
to solve the problems they were designed for if they conflict with the
values of communities who use them. In this study, we take a
Value-Sensitive Algorithm Design approach to understanding a
community-created and -maintained machine learning-based algorithm called
the Objective Revision Evaluation System (ORES)—a quality prediction system
used in numerous Wikipedia applications and contexts. Five major values
converged across stakeholder groups that ORES (and its dependent
applications) should: (1) reduce the effort of community maintenance, (2)
maintain human judgement as the final authority, (3) support differing
peoples’ differing workflows, (4) encourage positive engagement with
diverse editor groups, and (5) establish trustworthiness of people and
algorithms within the community. We reveal tensions between these values
and discuss implications for future research to improve algorithms like
ORES.

Subject: [Talk-us] OSM Foundation’s Call for Microgrant Applications
To: talk-us <talk-us(a)openstreetmap.org>
In case you missed this announcement, I'm reposting it on talk-us mailing list.
2020 will be the first year that the OSM Foundation operates the new
microgrants project. In the coming weeks, we hope to hear from you
about a bold, community-driven, and impactive OpenStreetMap project
idea that will benefit from a microgrant of up to 5000 euros. We
welcome a broad range of projects, with the minimum requirement being
a clear connection to OpenStreetMap.
What is a microgrant? In our case, it is a modest amount of funds
awarded to applicants in order to fund direct expenses of a project.
For an idea of successful projects, you can take a look at the
Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team’s 2019 microgrant awardees. Keep in
mind that the OSMF has a wider focus than the humanitarian sector,
spanning our global community, and welcomes applications with any
focus that relates to OpenStreetMap. We particularly encourage
applicants to consider the core values from the OSMF’s mission
statement and how any microgrant work can incorporate them.
The OSMF Microgrant Program focuses on simple grant proposals, and we
will swiftly decide on what to fund. Our goal is to avoid a
complicated and long application and decision process. You should
submit a brief and concise proposal, and we plan to quickly announce
the awardees.
We encourage submissions from individuals, groups, and organizations
who have a clear idea they want to pursue. Each project should be
completed within 12 months of the microgrant being awarded this
spring. Microgrants are open to all OSMF members, and can be submitted
in any language. If you are not yet a member of OSMF then you can
apply to join up until the time you submit a microgrant application,
and be eligible for an award. Please note there is a fee waiver
program that may allow you to join the OSMF at no cost.
In light of the ongoing health crisis regarding COVID19, we will not
be awarding microgrants for projects which require offline group
gatherings and in person meetings, although these ideas are certainly
valuable for future rounds.
Funding can be used for a variety of purposes. You may need tools and
supplies for mapping activity, funds for training materials,
technology expenses for a series of virtual mapathons, prizes for an
online coding, mapping, or writing contest, and many more examples.
Please embrace your own creativity and not feel limited by the range
of examples.
We encourage you to consult with your local OpenStreetMap community
when planning a microgrant application, and make sure you adhere to
community guidelines in the scope of the project. If accepted for a
microgrant, you will be responsible for reporting progress, signing a
grant agreement, and making sure to follow the detailed microgrant
rules. It is strongly suggested that your project uses the funding to
enable volunteer work to have a wider and stronger impact than it
would without funding.
The call for microgrants will open on April 19th, 2020 and we will
continue to accept applications through May 10th, 2020. In order to
submit, visit the OSM Wiki page and click on “Start your application”
to enter the template. When this is complete, send a message to
microgrants at osmfoundation.org. We also encourage sharing your
application on osmf-talk when it is submitted. If you need help with
the submission process, please feel free to contact the Microgrants
Committee for help. If you don’t have enough time to prepare your plan
and application, please consider submitting it in a possible future
round of microgrants.
Once the submission period closes on May 10th, we invite the community
to review the complete list of submissions and provide feedback on the
wiki page. We also will accept feedback by email to microgrants at
osmfoundation.org and via osmf-talk.
Complete timeline:
April 19: call for microgrant applications opens
May 10: final date for submission (23:59 Pacific Time Zone, USA).
May 10-TBD: community feedback period
Late May: announcement of awards
For more details, see the complete rules and guidelines on the OSM
wiki and contact us at microgrants at osmfoundation.org with any
questions. This is the first time the OSMF is sponsoring such an
activity, and we look forward to learning together about how this
benefits our community and how to build a transparent, effective, and
inclusive microgrants program for everyone involved. We are grateful
for the opportunity to make funds available to the community and hope
to hear your ideas in the coming weeks.
