Hallo. I'm cross-posting this to a few lists. Please send any questions to
the project's talkpage.
We would like to find two or three language communities who would be good
matches to help to guide some long-term improvements to the lexicographic
data part of Wikidata, and the closely related work in the Wikifunctions
wiki and the Abstract Wikipedia project, over the next few years. We are
looking for communities that are open to trying out new things, and have an
interest in linguistics and coding.
Participating communities will hopefully find that this project will lead
to long-term growth in content in Wikipedia and Wiktionary in and about
their language. See
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Lexicographical_d…
for more detailed information (including some suggested criteria). Please
help us identify potential good matches.
Thank you!
p.s. A translated/translatable version of this message is on meta-wiki, if
you'd like to share it elsewhere:

https://2021-eu.semantics.cc/cfp
== Research and Innovation Track ==
The Research and Innovation track at SEMANTiCS welcomes papers on novel
scientific research and/or innovations relevant to the topics of the
conference. Submissions must be original and must not have been
submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers must follow the guidelines
given in the author instructions, including references and optional
appendices. Each submission will be reviewed by several PC members who
will judge it based on its innovativeness, appropriateness, and impact
of results in terms of effectiveness at solving real problems.

The Posters and Demonstrations Track invites innovative work in
progress, late-breaking research and innovation results, and smaller
contributions in all fields related to the Semantic Web and Linked Data
in a broader sense. These include submissions on innovative applications
with impact on end users, such as demos of solutions that users may test
or that are yet in the conceptual phase but are worth discussing, and
also applications or pieces of code that may attract developers and
potential research or business partners.

Hi All,
I'd like to create a learning resource for English Teachers.
It will be a Moodle plugin showing random English word of the day (
https://moodle.org/plugins ).
Is it possible for me to download 1-year worth of archives from the
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Word_of_the_day site? I would
then process it and convert into offline Moodle plugin.
Thanks for any help or pointers you can provide,
Tomek

== Special Calls ==
Special calls or sub-topics are dedicated towards specific topics that
are of special interest to the SEMANTiCS community. IN case we receive a
sufficient amount of high quality submissions these topics will become
special tracks within the conference program. For 2021 SEMANTiCS
Amsterdam encourages submissions to the following sub-topics:
* Special Sub-Topic: Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage
* Special Sub-Topic: LegalTech
* Special Sub-Topic: Distributed and Decentralized Knowledge Graphs
Each sub-topic is managed by a distinct committee and encourages
submissions from the scientific or industrial domain. Scientific
submissions will undergo a thorough review process and will be published
in the conference proceedings in case of acceptance. Industrial
submissions will be evaluated and selected according to the quality
criteria of the industry track. WE are looking forward to your submissions!

== About SEMANTiCS ==
The annual SEMANTiCS EU conference is the meeting place for
professionals who make semantic computing work, understand its benefits,
and encounter its limitations. Every year, SEMANTiCS attracts
researchers and practitioners alike from a wide spectrum of
organisations ranging from universities, non-profit organisations,
public administration bodies, to SMEs and the largest companies in the
world.
SEMANTiCS is bound to continue a long tradition of building bridges
between like minded but often separated communities of interest. To do
so, the conference aims to explore the intersections, benefits and
hurdles of various traditions in artificial intelligence, machine
learning and semantic processing of graph data and information.
SEMANTiCS invites latest scientific research as well as presentations on
industry implementations, use case prototypes and best practices.
The SEMANTiCS program will provide a rich mix of technical talks, panel
discussions on emerging topics and presentations of practical systems by
people who make things work - just like you. In addition, attendees will
have a unique opportunity to network with experts in a variety of
fields. These relationships provide great value to organisations as they
encounter technical challenges in any stage of implementation. The
expertise gained by SEMANTiCS attendees has a long-term impact on their
careers and organisations. These factors make SEMANTiCS the key event
across Europe for a diverse community of industry leaders and academic
experts alike.
Apologies for cross-posting
Dear all,
We are proud to announce DBpedia Archivo (https://archivo.dbpedia.org)
an augmented ontology archive and interface to implement FAIRer
ontologies. Each ontology is rated with 4 stars measuring basic FAIR
features. We discovered 890 ontologies reaching on average 1.95 out of 4
stars. Many of them have no or unclear licenses and have issues w.r.t.
retrieval and parsing.
# Community action on individual ontologies
We would like to call on all ontology maintainers and consumers to help
us increase the average star rating of the web of ontologies by fixing
and improving its ontologies. You can easily check an ontology at
https://archivo.dbpedia.org/info. If you are an ontology maintainer just
release a patched version - archivo will automatically pick it up 8
hours later. If you are a user of an ontology and want your consumed
data to become FAIRer, please inform the ontology maintainer about the
issues found with Archivo.
The star rating is very basic and only requires fixing small things.
However, theimpact on technical and legal usability can be immense.
# Community action on all ontologies (quality, FAIRness, conformity)
Archivo is extensible and allows contributions to give consumers a
central place to encode their requirements. We envision fostering
adherence to standards and strengthening incentives for publishers to
build a better (FAIRer) web of ontologies.
1.
SHACL (https://www.w3.org/TR/shacl/, co-edited by DBpedia’s CTO D.
Kontokostas) enables easy testing of ontologies. Archivo offers free
SHACL continuous integration testing for ontologies. Anyone can
implement their SHACL tests and add them to the SHACL library on
Github. We believe that there are many synergies, i.e. SHACL tests
for your ontology are helpful for others as well.
2.
We are looking for ontology experts to join DBpedia and discuss
further validation (e.g. stars) to increase FAIRness and quality of
ontologies. We are forming a steering committee and also a PC for
the upcoming Vocarnival at SEMANTiCS 2021. Please message
hellmann(a)informatik.uni-leipzig.de
<mailto:hellmann@informatik.uni-leipzig.de>if you would like to
join. We would like to extend the Archivo platform with relevant
visualisations, tests, editing aides, mapping management tools and
quality checks.
# How does Archivo work?
Each week Archivo runs several discovery algorithms to scan for new
ontologies. Once discovered Archivo checks them every 8 hours. When
changes are detected, Archivo downloads and rates and archives the
latest snapshot persistently on the DBpedia Databus.
# Archivo's mission
Archivo's mission is to improve FAIRness (findability, accessibility,
interoperability, and reusability) of all available ontologies on the
Semantic Web. Archivo is not a guideline, it is fully automated,
machine-readable and enforces interoperability with its star rating.
- Ontology developers can implement against Archivo until they reach
more stars. The stars and tests are designed to guarantee the
interoperability and fitness of the ontology.
- Ontology users can better find, access and re-use ontologies.
Snapshots are persisted in case the original is not reachable anymore
adding a layer of reliability to the decentral web of ontologies.
Let’s all join together to make the web of ontologies more reliable and
stable,
Johannes Frey, Denis Streitmatter, Fabian Götz, Sebastian Hellmann and
Natanael Arndt
