Hello everyone,
With great pleasure, we would like to invite you to the WikiCite Satellite
Event hosted by the Open Heritage Foundation in New Delhi on April 18,19
2020.
Wikicite is a Wikimedia event to develop open citations and linked
bibliographic data to serve free knowledge. The Wikimedia community and the
GLAM institutions need to understand the dynamics of open bibliographic
data better and how it can be scaled proactively with Wikimedia projects
and other open-source platforms that are involved in open data.
This event will be aimed at addressing the prevalent gap between Wikidata
and Wikisource integration for works and their consecutive items.
The format and structure of the event would have open calls for
collaborators/presenters/participants. The event will be of 2 days and the
attendance would be around 15-25 people, including, the stakeholders
working with GLAM institutions, Wikisourcers, and Wikidatans interested in
bibliographical data.
The scholarships and registrations are open from February 26, 2020 and
close on March 15, 2020. We also invite the community members to submit
proposals for sessions. The date for submissions starts from February 26,
2020 and close on March 11, 2020. The submissions will be taken into
account for prioritizing the candidates for scholarships.
We look forward to welcoming you to New Delhi in April with the
collaborative spirit of this year’s Wikimania theme ‘Sharing knowledge
brings people together’ and ‘Power of Diverse Collaboration’.
On behalf of the OHF and the organizing committee,
