Hoi,

I understand why Wikipapers started in a MediaWiki format. I wonder if it would make sense to include the data of Wikipapers in Wikidata like any other Wiki so far.

It would bring several advantages among them query and the realisation that our own movement is relevant and notable. This is at this time denied by some. We do include references to all kinds of papers, why not the papers documented in Wikipapers?

Thanks,

GerardM

WikiPapers is the main wiki-based curation platform for wiki-related
academic publications, but it's down at the moment:
http://wikipapers.referata.com/

Although not as structured, the (searchable) archives of the Research
Newsletter are a great resource:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Newsletter

Many of the references indexed in the Research Newsletter are also
curated in the associated WikiResearch library on Zotero (which was
recently converted to a Zotero group for better collaboration).
Zotero can export to BibTeX.
https://www.zotero.org/groups/wikiresearch/items

More recently, I've started an effort to organize the literature by
topic. It's an ambitious goal and most of the pages are still just
skeletons. The nearly-finished page about contributor roles gives an
idea of what it'll look like:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Codex/Roles_of_contributors

I'm sure I've missed other resources that others will follow up on.
