- Blogs - Small data, slow data − a SNAIL approach to Wikidata https://commonists.wordpress.com/2024/10/09/small-data-slow-data-a-snail-approach-to-wikidata/: discusses the value of small, carefully curated datasets in the era of big data. It emphasizes the importance of taking a methodical, "snail-paced" approach to data collection and analysis, which can lead to more meaningful and accurate insights. The blogpost also highlights how this approach can complement the broader trends of big data, ensuring that detailed, high-quality data is not overlooked. - Papers - "WoolNet: Finding and Visualising Paths in Knowledge Graphs https://x.com/WikiResearch/status/1843699094579229068" given two or more entities requested by a user, the system finds and visualises paths that connect these entities, forming a topical subgraph of Wikidata (Torres Gutiérrez and Hogan) - Videos - Introductory workshop to Wikidata within the framework of the Latin America Contest in Wikidata 2024 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7j0raFQh86c (in Italian) - GeoPython 2024: Bridging Worlds: Python-Powered Integration of Wikidata and OpenStreetMap https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_iJcKwCnZA: This talk explores Python-powered tools that integrate Wikidata with OpenStreetMap, allowing users to link entries between the two platforms to enhance geospatial data accuracy while navigating legal and ethical challenges of cross-platform data sharing. - LD4 2024 Conference: Wikidata and Open Data: Enhancing the Hausa Community's Digital Presence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GYJ6V6ySpQ - Dynamic Mapping using Collaborative Knowledge Graphs: Real-Time SKOS Mapping from Wikidata https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X88n85Q9O5U: This presentation introduces a workflow using SPARQL queries to dynamically map live Wikidata data to SKOS concepts, featuring a Python tool that converts CSV outputs into RDF triples for integration into linked data environments and knowledge graphs, emphasizing real-time data retrieval and interoperability. - How to add location coordinates to Wikidata Items https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIvp1SqPF4c (in Dagbanli) - Clean-up of problematic Dagbani lexemes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Die9VnTtep8: Wikidata:Lexicographical data/Documentation/Languages/dag#Maintenance_tasks https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Lexicographical_data/Documentation/Languages/dag#Maintenance_tasks (in Dagbanli) - How to link Wikidata Items to Wikipedia Articles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4jduWucxao - Best Practices to editing Dagbani Lexemes on Wikidata https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPPrXFK3E10 - Podcasts - Could making Wikidata 'human' readable lead to better AI? https://podcasts.apple.com/lu/podcast/could-making-wikidata-human-readable-lead-to-better-ai/id1713408769?i=1000672273741&l=de-DE: Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (Staff) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Lydia_Pintscher_(WMDE), Portfolio Lead Product Manager at Wikidata Deutschland, discussed a new project aimed at making Wikidata more 'human' readable for Large Language Models (LLMs), which could improve AI reliability by giving these models access to high-quality, human-curated data from Wikidata. - Notebooks - Citizenship concentration in Nobel laureates https://observablehq.com/@pac02/citizenship-concentration-in-nobel-prize - Continental and country diversity in Wikipedia articles https://observablehq.com/@pac02/continental-and-country-diversity-in-wikipedia-art
* Tool of the week *
- *Elemwala (এলেমওয়ালা)* (https://elemwala.toolforge.org): is a proof-of-concept interface that allows you to input abstract content and get natural language text in a given output language. There may well be errors with particular inputs, and the text may not be quite as natural as you might expect, but that's where your improvements to your language's lexemes, other Wikidata items, and the tool's source https://gitlab.com/mahir256/ninai code https://gitlab.com/mahir256/udiron come in! - mlscores https://github.com/johnsamuelwrites/mlscores: Tool for calculating multilinguality score of Wikidata items (including properties). E.g. for Wikidata (Q2013) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2013, the scores are - *en*: 99.66%, *fr*: 89.49%, *es*: 84.07%, *pt*: 68.47%. For instance of (P31) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P31, the scores are - *en*: 99.86%, *fr*: 87.12%, *es*: 80.83%, *pt*: 61.37%.
* Other Noteworthy Stuff *
- Launch of WikiProject Deprecate P642 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Deprecate_P642: The goal of this project is to prepare for deprecation, and eventual removal, of the property of (P642) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P642. Currently, of (P642) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P642 is labeled as "being deprecated", meaning its use is still allowed, but discouraged. From a peak of around 900,000 uses, the property now has around 700,000 uses (see status here https://query-chest.toolforge.org/redirect/oFt2TvlNg0iASOSOuASMuCO2wMaEqSYC6QGm2YkU08i). Our goal is to reduce that as much as possible in a systematic way, while ensuring that appropriate properties exist to replace all valid uses of of (P642) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P642. The latter is key to officially deprecating the property. Before *removing* the property, we want to get as close to zero uses as possible.
