Hey SJ
Yes working to add OWID both to the sources tab.
With respect to translation, am in discussion with OWID and they have no
capacity to add this infrastructure for a couple of years. We will need to
build something ourselves if we want it sooner. Am looking for volunteers
who are interested :-) Or funding to help hire someone to work on this.

Fantastic. I would include OWID in the Sources
attribution line in the
embeds.
Do they already have a start at translation? A strings file associated w/
each map?

We at Wiki Project Med are working to get Our
World in Data (OWID)
working within a mediawiki environment.
1) We have created a mirror of their website on WMF servers
<https://owidm.wmcloud.org/grapher/interventions-ntds-sdgs>. Hopefully
this has allowed us to address security and privacy concerns.
2) We have created an extension
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OurWorldInDataMirror> that
allows the use of this content within a mediawiki install
3) We have made a bunch of changes to formatting, such as removing the
logo, to make it compliant with WP practice and style. You can see an
example on MDWiki in the infobox here
<https://mdwiki.org/wiki/Neglected_tropical_diseases>.
My question to the movement is are their communities interested in using
this technology? There are about 4,000 of these graphs
<https://owidm.wmcloud.org/charts>. We of course will also need to
develop a framework for translation.
