Dear List,
currently I am working on a digital bibliography of all published texts by
the Austrian writer Ilse Aichinger. My intention is to make this list
publicly available as a digitally structured database. I found that
wikidata could be the right place for this. (Am I right?)
At first I wanted to use the FRBR vocabulary to describe the relations
between the texts, but librarians recommended to use BIBFRAME, as this
seems to get to be the standard vocabulary – and wikidata also uses this
vocabulary, as I learned from the wikidata-project group
Wikidata:WikiProject_Books
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Books>. --- Currently I
am recording the bibliographic units locally in BIBTEX format (because I
started in this format). Later on I will transform the dataset to BIBFRAME
and the wikidata-bibframe-vocabulary so that I can load it to wikidata.
Now I would like to ask you: Are there comparable, perhaps even exemplary
projects for bibliographies on wikidata? Which ones? Should I suggest or
announce the project somewhere? Do you have recommendations regarding the
workflow (e.g. is quickstatements
<https://tools.wmflabs.org/quickstatements>-tool the best way to push my
data to wikidata)? Is someone here with experience regarding building a
bibliography in wikidata?
With best regards,
Andrew
