The paper on vandalism detection in Wikidata sounds interesting, where can
I find it?

Hoi,
I noticed the notion about "quality in Wikidata". The approach is very
much
in line with what is the norm in Wikipedia. This
is inot the right
approach
for Wikidata. Many of the items in Wikidata can
be of high "quality"; ie
the statements have a source and there are enough labels but the true
value
of these items are in the use of these items as
statements in other
items..
(for instance a university indicates that someone
studied there).
Another
quality point is that for authors a VIAF
statements allows for the
linking
in Wikipedias in external sources. This is of a
high importance, it makes
Wikidata useful and, if that is not of a quality consideration what is?
One other aspect of Wikidata is that it is still highly immature. Just
consider the statistics for labels and statements [1] . This is only the
first month where less than 10% of our items have no statement.. We talk
about quality but quality should have a practical meaning. Just saying
this
or that item is so good, it makes for stamp
collecting. The point of a
stamp is not to collect them it is to send mail. Quality means that we
know
how many articles have been written in one or
more editathons. It is in
finding for a collection of items that it is better known what award,
schooling has been achieved by the people that was written for. It is in
using Wikidata to indicate what categories could be in what Wikipedia
article.
Quality needs to be actionable. What is the use of static quality?
Thanks,
GerardM

- We investigated a scap issue that broke ORES deployment[26]
- We fixed a minor issue with JSON minification behavior[27] and
hard-coding of the location of ORES in the documentation[28]
- We improved performance of ORES filters on MediaWiki[29]
- We improved the language describing ORES behavior on
Special:Contributions[30]
- We added a notice to the Wikipages that Dexbot maintains about its
behavior[31]
- We added notices to
ores.wmflabs.org about it's experimental
nature[32]
- We fixed some issues with testing Finnish language assets[33]
- We fixed some styling issues that resulted from an upgrade of OOJS
UI[34]
