Wikimania 2019 / Small Wiki Toolkits quick summary
by Srishti Sethi 24 Sep '19

24 Sep '19

Hello everyone, I would like to share a quick summary of Small Wiki Toolkits, which was one of the focus areas at this year’s Wikimania Hackathon. As part of this focus area, five workshops and two sessions were conducted that covered a wide range of topics – developing user scripts and gadgets, working with Wikimedia APIs, writing templates in Lua, generating Wikidata infoboxes, leveraging Wikimedia cloud services, etc. Participants also engaged in other activities such as the Wikidata documentation translation sprint and cleaning MediaWiki:Common.css with TemplateStyles. All toolkits are now available on the Meta page: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Small_wiki_toolkits. You can also add this page to your Watchlist to keep upto date with the next steps on this project! To learn more, read the complete summary on Wikimedia Space: https://space.wmflabs.org/2019/09/24/round-up-of-small-wiki-toolkits-at-wik… Cheers, Srishti *Srishti Sethi* Developer Advocate Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/>

Video of Wikidata and Health session still missing
by Houcemeddine A. Turki 21 Sep '19

21 Sep '19

Dear all, I thank you for your efforts. I am honoured to inform you that our paper about Wikidata and Health will be finally published within two weeks in Journal of Biomedical Informatics. The editor has finished proofreading it during last Friday and it has sent for production. Although the paper about the topic has been accepted for publication in a prestigious highly referred journal, the video of the Wikimania 2019 session about the topic is still missing although one month has passed since we presented our work. I ask if our session can be uploaded to Commons during this week so that we can share it with people working on this topic. Yours Sincerely, Houcemeddine Turki (he/him) Medical Student, Faculty of Medicine of Sfax, University of Sfax, Tunisia Undergraduate Researcher, UR12SP36 GLAM, Research and Education Coordinator Wikimedia TN User Group Member, Wiki Project Med Member, WikiIndaba Steering Committee Member, Wikimedia and Library User Group Steering Committee Co-Founder, WikiLingua Maghreb ____________________ +21629499418

Surströmming
by Deryck Chan 30 Aug '19

30 Aug '19

Apparently Wikimania will coincide with Surströmming day in Sweden this year [1]. Anyone fancy trying this smelly Swedish delicacy together? (More discreet, private offers to take me to try this fish also welcome. I'm a big fan of Cantonese salted fish [2] so I'm fairly confident I can cope with Surströmming.)

by Cornelius Kibelka 27 Aug '19

27 Aug '19

*Dear Wikimedians,* We are a strong, large, and diverse communities that is constantly growing. Nevertheless, over the years some of us pass away and leave us. Wikimania – as our global gathering – is an opportunity to honour them and remember them. For that reason, as this year's Wikimania, I have create a "Mourning corner" where you can take your time and mourn those that have passed away. The corner is outside directly left of the main entrance of the Aula Magna building. It is a bench close to a tree, the tree is decorated with white origami cranes. On the Wikimania map, the bench is marked as "H" (also called *Sirleaf Bench*). I've uploaded a map indicating it <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikimania_2019_map_with_mourning_co…> .[1] If you have any questions regarding the Mourning corner, please let me know.
