Hello,
I am an information specialist at the National Library of Finland, where I am linking our General Finnish Ontology YSO (30,000+ concepts with terms in Finnish-Swedish-English) to Wikidata at the moment. I just joined this mailing list. I am currently using Mix'n'match tool and would have a couple of questions. I would be very happy for any answers or contact info to someone who might have the answers. Thank you very much! Here are my questions:
* Is there a connection in Mix'n'match between the Preliminarily matched/Unmatched division and any of the three: Match mode, Mobile matching, Visual tool?
* More precisely, are the link suggestions provided by Match mode / Mobile matching / Visual tool created only from Preliminary matched list, only from Unmatched list or from both?
* Also, if I reject a link suggestion in Match mode / Mobile matching / Visual tool, will that concept be added to the Unmatched list?
This would be important for my own (and possibly anybody else's) Mix'n'match work flow / method. If it was up to me, I would suggest rejected concepts not be added to the Unmatched list, but that's just me. I am planning to write a report of my linking project in the future, where I will most likely include some development suggestions / wishes. One immediate wish is that it would be great to tag or somehow put aside link suggestions that require more research and cannot be decided on the spot (for example, Wikidata items may include poor Finnish/Swedish terms and may require some corrections before I can do the linking).
Thanks for your help!
Best regards,
Tuomas / National Library of Finland
Hello all,
after talking about it a few times here, the official proposal for creating
the multilingual Wikipedia proposal is now on Meta.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikilambda
The idea is to create abstract, language-independent content in Wikidata,
and then translate it into natural language using function. These functions
will be defined and maintained in a new Wikimedia project, which I
preliminary called Wikilambda.
Wikilambda will be a new Wikimedia project that allows to create, maintain,
catalog, and evaluate functions about all kind of things. You can find a
lot of further details in the link above. If you have any questions, I am
happy to answer them.
The official project proposal process basically says, make the proposal
here, and then go and tell everyone, and at some point, the Board might
look at this and say, yes good idea.
So I would love to collect many of your voices and support signatures, so
that I can go to the Board and tell them look at this :) So please sign
here:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikilambda
Thank you,
Denny

CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS
THE SUBMISSION DEADLINE IS ON AUGUST 10TH, 2020
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Fifteenth International Workshop on
ONTOLOGY MATCHING
(OM-2020)
http://om2020.ontologymatching.org/
November 2nd or 3rd, 2020,
International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC) Workshop Program,
VIRTUAL CONFERENCE
BRIEF DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES
Ontology matching is a key interoperability enabler for the Semantic Web,
as well as a useful technique in some classical data integration tasks
dealing with the semantic heterogeneity problem. It takes ontologies
as input and determines as output an alignment, that is, a set of
correspondences between the semantically related entities of those
ontologies.
These correspondences can be used for various tasks, such as ontology
merging, data interlinking, query answering or navigation over knowledge
graphs.
Thus, matching ontologies enables the knowledge and data expressed
with the matched ontologies to interoperate.
The workshop has three goals:
1.
To bring together leaders from academia, industry and user institutions
to assess how academic advances are addressing real-world requirements.
The workshop will strive to improve academic awareness of industrial
and final user needs, and therefore, direct research towards those needs.
Simultaneously, the workshop will serve to inform industry and user
representatives about existing research efforts that may meet their
requirements. The workshop will also investigate how the ontology
matching technology is going to evolve, especially with respect to
data interlinking, knowledge graph and web table matching tasks.
2.
To conduct an extensive and rigorous evaluation of ontology matching
and instance matching (link discovery) approaches through
the OAEI (Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative) 2020 campaign:
http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2020/
3.
To examine similarities and differences from other, old, new
and emerging, techniques and usages, such as web table matching
or knowledge embeddings.
This year, in sync with the main conference, we encourage submissions
specifically devoted to: (i) datasets, benchmarks and replication studies,
services, software, methodologies, protocols and measures
(not necessarily related to OAEI), and (ii) application of
the matching technology in real-life scenarios and assessment
of its usefulness to the final users.
TOPICS of interest include but are not limited to:
Business and use cases for matching (e.g., big, open, closed data);
Requirements to matching from specific application scenarios (e.g.,
public sector, homeland security);
Application of matching techniques in real-world scenarios (e.g., in
cloud, with mobile apps);
Formal foundations and frameworks for matching;
Novel matching methods, including link prediction, ontology-based
access;
Matching and knowledge graphs;
Matching and deep learning;
Matching and embeddings;
Matching and big data;
Matching and linked data;
Instance matching, data interlinking and relations between them;
Privacy-aware matching;
Process model matching;
Large-scale and efficient matching techniques;
Matcher selection, combination and tuning;
User involvement (including both technical and organizational aspects);
Explanations in matching;
Social and collaborative matching;
Uncertainty in matching;
Expressive alignments;
Reasoning with alignments;
Alignment coherence and debugging;
Alignment management;
Matching for traditional applications (e.g., data science);
Matching for emerging applications (e.g., web tables, knowledge graphs).

Hi Wikidata people,
I am trying to use QuickStatements in order to set Spanish Labels and Descriptions on all the Properties of our Wikibase (FactGrid). E.g.:
P367 Les "Identificación de la BnF"
Somehow I fail with the error code "Revision with ID not found". I can, however easily set these alternative statements (Q24 is the sandbox item):
Q24 Les "Identificación de la BnF"
P367 P2 "Identificación de la BnF"
There seems to be a particular thing to observe about Property labels and descriptions - any clue?
Cheers,
Olaf

Hi team!
How do others tag a Wikidata item for Admin review?
Not necessarily spam, but perhaps some errant bot or person causing a bit
of confusion with wrongful statements.
Such as this case of a Wikidata property that should not be?

Hi,
I am currently working on a NER project at school and would like to know if there is a way to generate RDF dumps that only contain "instance of" or "subclass of" relations.
I have found these dumps:
RDF Exports from Wikidata<https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-exports/rdf/exports/20160801/dump_downlo…>
Here, under "simplified and derived dumps" taxonomy and instances dumps are very useful for me but unfortunately very old.
It would be great if I could generate up to date dumps.
Thank You,
Alkım Ece Toprak

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.
