Hello

This is an important message regarding this page.

This page uses Structured Discussions/Flow, an obsolete tool that causes many maintenance problems. It has been decided to remove this tool from the wikis.

As of December 16, it will no longer be possible to add a new topic or post a message on this page.

Before this date, you can move or have this page moved to a subpage, in order to archive it. Once moved, this page will become a standard discussion page.

If you get this message on your personal talk page, it is probably because you turned Structured Discussions on, using the Beta features page. Please check there if you can to turn Structured Discussions off.

If you haven't moved this page by December 16, a script will automatically move the page to an archive page (the format will be Page name/Flow). The page using Structured Discussions/Flow will then be made read-only.

If you have any questions, please let me know!

I see you recently undid the merge of Q6542767 and Q16699287. We now have the situation where the former is a human that has two sitelinks, both disambiguation pages, and the latter is a disambiguation page with no sitelinks. Could I ask you to take another look at this? CC @W ~~~~

Call for participation in the interview study with Wikidata editors

Dear Shinnin,

I hope you are doing good,

I am Kholoud, a researcher at the King’s College London, and I work on a project as part of my PhD research that develops a personalized recommendation system to suggest Wikidata items for the editors based on their interests and preferences. I am collaborating on this project with Elena Simperl and Miaojing Shi.

I would love to talk with you to know about your current ways to choose the items you work on in Wikidata and understand the factors that might influence such a decision. Your cooperation will give us valuable insights into building a recommender system that can help improve your editing experience.  

Participation is completely voluntary. You have the option to withdraw at any time. Your data will be processed under the terms of UK data protection law (including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018). The information and data that you provide will remain confidential; it will only be stored on the password-protected computer of the researchers. We will use the results anonymized (?) to provide insights into the practices of the editors in item selection processes for editing and publish the results of the study to a research venue. If you decide to take part, we will ask you to sign a consent form, and you will be given a copy of this consent form to keep.

If you’re interested in participating and have 15-20 minutes to chat (I promise to keep the time!), please either contact me on [email protected] or use this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdmmFHaiB20nK14wrQJgfrA18PtmdagyeRib3xGtvzkdn3Lgw/viewform?usp=sf_link  with your choice of the times that work for you.

I’ll follow up with you to figure out what method is the best way for us to connect.

Please contact me using the email mentioned above if you have any questions or require more information about this project.

Thank you for considering taking part in this research.

Regards

Kholoud

What do you mean do not repurpose item?

I see that you have reverted our edit to the 'List of people with locked-in syndrome page' and was wondering why. The list does not seem to appear in any particular order - for instance Nick Chisholm is not as famous as Stephen Hawking but appears above him on the page, so why have you an issue with the edit we made?

Hello Shinnin,


I'm an information specialist working at National Library of Finland's Finto service where we are linking General Finnish Ontology (YSO) concepts to Wikidata items via Mix'n'Match tool, at the moment. As you may know, YSO is an indexing tool used widely in the Finnish library sector as well as in museums, archives, public administration and media. I noticed that you had already established a number of links between YSO and Wikidata in the Mix'n'Match project. We appreciate your activism, but would also like you to consider the following: YSO concepts are maintained by a team of information specialists and are a result of careful concept analysis. Each concept has a specific meaning, indicated foremost by its Finnish and Swedish preferred terms and its broader concepts in the ontology hierarchy, but also, in practical terms, by its use in indexing. Any links made should be in accordance with the precise meaning of the concept. Therefore, while we are happy to receive help, we also express that anybody who's willing to help us in linking YSO concepts to Wikidata should have excellent skills in Finnish and Swedish and should go through our linking guideline tour that we will be giving in Finnish in the near future. If you are interested in helping us more, please contact us. See our contact info here: https://www.kansalliskirjasto.fi/en/services/system-platform-services/finto


Best regards,

Tuomas / Finto / National Library of Finland
