Hello everyone,
The Digital Humanities Awards is an international competition recognising
work in the field of (unsurprisingly) digital humanities.
This year a project involving our Wikimedian in Residence at the University
of Edinburgh has been nominated in the category of 'Best DH Data
Visualization'. Voting is open now
http://dhawards.org/dhawards2019/voting/.
Based on Wikidata, the work breathed new life into a database of Scottish
witch trials. If you haven't seen it already, here's the explorable map
https://witches.is.ed.ac.uk/.
Please do have a look and vote!
