Hi Quim, Sylvia, Lydia and Wikidatans,
In terms of strategic partnerships with CC Wikidata, and this Wikidata
Engineering
Community project looking for -
"* people that have been in touch with organizations willing to contribute
their open data" -
in what ways could CC World University and School contribute our early CC
Nation State Universities, e.g. Mexico World University and School -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Mexico - (with only the CC MIT OCW in
Spanish so far, and not yet in Spanish otherwise)? See also, for example,
the Nation States' wiki subject page at WUaS -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nation_States. Each wiki Nation-State
University at CC WUaS, seeks to accredit in each country in their main
languags to offer online CC baccalaureate, Ph.D., Law and M.D. degrees, and
also I.B. high school degrees, if possible, based on CC MIT OCW in 7
languages and CC Yale OYC, to begin.
In addition, CC World University would like to facilitate wiki / Wikidata
schools for open teaching and learning in each of all 7,929+ languages. As
planned interlingual wiki schools for highest quality universal education,
CC World University and School would like to explore developing in
Wikidata, and become a growth story also for Wikidata. World University
would thus like to explore contributing our open data in these regards.
In what ways might WUaS best contribute in terms of a strategic
partnerships re this Wikidata Engineering Community project ? Perhaps World
University could become a part of the"community framework allowing Wikidata
content and tech contributors, data engineers, and open data organizations
to collaborate effectively." Thank you.
Best,
Info (Scott)

Quim,
I'm not familiar with GLAM or what you are really asking for here. Could
you elaborate a little? Our group is actively engaged in writing bots for
populating wikidata with trusted biomedical information and for using that
information to drive applications such as Wikipedia. Processes for making
this easier would be most welcome. A lot of what we are doing and hoping
to do is described on this bot page:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:ProteinBoxBot
?

Hello Quim,
There was always the issue of where to publish datasets from partner
organisations like a
http://datahub.io/
Is that being considered in this new iteration?
Cheers,
Micru

Hello Quim,
We have in Belgium (as Wikimedia Belgium) a partner organisation who is
together with us working with cultural institutions to get open datasets to
be used in Wikidata.
So yes, we are interested.
Greetings,
Romaine

Hi, it's first of July and I would like to
introduce you a quarterly
goal that the Engineering Community team has committed to:
Establish a framework to engage with data engineers and open data
organizations
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T101950
We are missing a community framework allowing Wikidata content and tech
contributors, data engineers, and open data organizations to collaborate
effectively. Imagine GLAM applied to data.
If all goes well, by the end of September we would like to have basic
documentation and community processes for open data engineers and
organizations willing to contribute to Wikidata, and ongoing projects
with one open data org.
If you are interested, get involved! We are looking for
* Wikidata contributors with good institutional memory
* people that has been in touch with organizations willing to
contribute their open data
* developers willing to help improving our software and programming
missing pieces
* also contributors familiar with the GLAM model(s), what works and
what didn't work
This goal has been created after some conversations with Lydia
Pintscher (Wikidata team) and Sylvia Ventura (Strategic Partnerships). Both
are on board, Lydia assuring that this work fits into what is technically
effective, and Sylvia checking our work against real open data
organizations willing to get involved.
This email effectively starts the bootstrapping of this project. I will
start creating subtasks under that goal based on your feedback and common
sense.
