Wiki Version:
This session by [Martin Poulter][1], the University of Oxford's Wikimedian In Residence, looked at how to make research visible on Wikipedia and related platforms. We discussed: - an overview of Wikipedia and its sister projects as free and open projects. - "under the bonnet" of a Wikipedia article: quality reviews, author profiles, and the stats tool - Wikidata, a platform for free and open data, combining bibliographic, biographical, geographical, taxonomic and other types in one database. - [Scholia][2], a Wikidata-driven application for scholarly profiles, citation analysis, and visualisation of data about scientific publications. See for example [Dorothy Bishop's profile][3]. This uses entirely open data and can represent publications from any publisher. The Sloan Foundation have announced half a million dollars of funding to make Scholia a more robust platform. - Journal-to-Wiki publication: reusing open access papers, figures and lay summaries to make Wikipedia articles. - Tips for interacting with Wikipedia if you want to directly improve articles in your area. Slides from the workshop are available in the Files section [1]: http://infobomb.org [2]: https://tools.wmflabs.org/scholia/ [3]: https://tools.wmflabs.org/scholia/author/Q16841401
