I have to comment on the following email statement you made that I
disagree. You said, "As you already know, the relations having important
number of query results are more likely to be accurate." This is a vague
comment. I find this most of the time definitely not true. Any person can
manipulate the sample. It is not the size of the sample but, the
credibility and quality of the sample pool that's important.
Then the statement was written "After we do this, we will give the list of
the retrieved risk factors to a number of physicians for verification."
Again the sample of physicians that are given the data is important. I the
sample pool is from the same school of thought the end result would have no
merit. I think the credentials of the sample is important but, I would add
research Phd's, nurses, students and patients. etc...
I think Wiki, Wikimedical etc... is doing a good job and I like the open
source architectural the mediators are excellent but, I'd like to have
links in the sites to a higher level of research information.
Respectfully,
Thomas Lapsley TL

Dear Mr.,
I thank you for your answer. This is an absolutely interesting question.
The method we will use is based on PubMed Entrez API. Using a Python code,
we retrieve the number of PubMed publications jointly involving the name of
the disease and the name of the risk factor and we retrieve the PubMed ID
of the most relevant search result. As you already know, the relations
having important number of query results are more likely to be accurate.
After we do this, we will give the list of the retrieved risk factors to a
number of physicians for verification. After that, we will add them to
Wikidata using QuickStatements. As for the concerns you raised, they are
absolutely accurate. We can discuss them in details after the acceptance of
the proposal. You can also be a co-author of the work.
Yours Sincerely,
Houcemeddine Turki

Dear Houcemeddine,
interesting proposal, indeed. I left a comment on the page, which
basically says we need qualifiers and references. The references because
some claims will be controversial (even if backed up by literature), while
I also see these links as likely time bound, due to changing health
policies (I can think of a few other reasons), at least for the residence
examples (I hope no one gets any ideas about Q4 'risk factor'
'residence'
'war zone').
With kind regards,
Egon

Dear Mr. or Ms.,
I thank you for your efforts. I invite you to support the proposal of risk
factor as a Wikidata property. The property will be an excellent
contribution to Wikidata as it can allow this high-scale knowledge base to
be useful for digital epidemiology purposes. The proposal is available in
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/risk_factor.
This property is a generalization of the first property proposal I
developed.
Yours Sincerely,
Houcemeddine Turki
