Welcome everyone to the very first[br]WikidataCon Award 2019.
0:04:09.174,0:04:10.846
It's so great that you're here.

0:04:19.388,0:04:23.222
I have some friends who are actually not[br]at Wikimedia, that happens,
0:04:23.222,0:04:25.766
and I often tell them stories[br]about Wikimedia,
0:04:25.766,0:04:27.459
and somehow they all believe
0:04:27.459,0:04:30.541
that Wikimedia is something[br]like a never-ending party,
0:04:30.541,0:04:34.603
full of goals, awards, fun ideas,
0:04:34.603,0:04:39.488
amazing people--that's true, actually--[br]and new sticker designs every week.
0:04:39.488,0:04:40.808
(laughter)
0:04:40.808,0:04:43.714
I don't think that their image [br]of Wikimedia is going to change
0:04:43.714,0:04:45.216
after this award.
0:04:47.108,0:04:49.045
But, actually, seriously,
0:04:49.045,0:04:51.481
I think it's super important[br]that we celebrate together,
0:04:51.481,0:04:53.425
that we have fun together.
0:04:54.105,0:04:57.328
There's nothing more nice in the world[br]than being proud of each other
0:04:57.328,0:05:01.310
and actually acknowledge[br]the work that you do,
0:05:01.310,0:05:03.501
that all of you do here, together.
0:05:04.646,0:05:06.444
That's just so cool.
0:05:09.646,0:05:13.228
2019 was a year of Wikimedia Awards,
0:05:13.228,0:05:17.024
and the WikidataCon Award[br]is actually the little sister
0:05:17.024,0:05:20.803
of the Coolest Tool Award that took place [br]in Wikimania in Stockholm
0:05:20.803,0:05:22.550
for those who were there.
0:05:23.350,0:05:28.118
And some people [br]from the Wikidata community came to me
0:05:28.118,0:05:30.044
after the Coolest Tool Award,[br]and they were like,
0:05:30.044,0:05:34.210
"We should have this for Wikidata too.[br]We should have it at WikidataCon."
0:05:34.210,0:05:35.477
And here we are.
0:05:35.477,0:05:38.008
Second iteration, as you know,[br]if you iterate on things,
0:05:38.008,0:05:42.370
they can only get better,[br]so WikidataCon Award 2019!
0:05:45.207,0:05:49.088
A few weeks ago, we were asking [br]for nominations for this award,
0:05:49.088,0:05:52.693
for like your favorite projects, [br]no matter if it's a tool, initiative,
0:05:52.693,0:05:53.896
outreach activity.
0:05:53.896,0:05:55.591
Anything could be anything.
0:05:55.591,0:06:00.469
I just want to say thank you so much[br]from our side for sending us nominations
0:06:00.469,0:06:04.423
and actually describing[br]why this or that project is so cool
0:06:04.423,0:06:05.733
that it should win an award.
0:06:05.733,0:06:07.348
Really, thank you very much.
0:06:10.294,0:06:12.236
We are awarding projects today
0:06:12.236,0:06:14.924
because Wikimedia's all about [br]collaboration, right?
0:06:14.924,0:06:19.516
But behind the projects,[br]there are actually people,
0:06:19.516,0:06:21.194
it's the Wikidata community.
0:06:21.194,0:06:23.481
So think of the people [br]than the award of the projects.
0:06:23.481,0:06:25.814
Don't forget the people,[br]they're amazing and they're important.
0:06:25.814,0:06:27.480
But we award projects.
0:06:33.176,0:06:35.309
As said, we had a nomination process.
0:06:35.309,0:06:38.909
There was a Selection Committee;[br]they are all in the room,
0:06:38.909,0:06:42.703
Envel and Sjoerd and Amir and me,
0:06:44.087,0:06:46.965
and there were more people involved.
0:06:46.965,0:06:50.429
Actually, also non-Wikimedia people,[br]for example, my friend Moona,
0:06:50.739,0:06:56.559
who you will find out what she did later[br]in this award ceremony was also involved,
0:06:56.559,0:07:01.875
and Liam of course, [br]as the second host, ringmaster on stage
0:07:01.875,0:07:04.285
who will talk a lot this evening.
0:07:05.168,0:07:08.387
And Lea Laqua, who did[br]the communication, as always
0:07:08.387,0:07:11.518
and just was awesome and helped us.
0:07:11.518,0:07:14.236
We are awarding projects[br]in nine different categories:
0:07:14.236,0:07:17.653
Editing, Community Building, Ecosystem,[br]Newcomer-friendly,
0:07:17.653,0:07:21.153
Wikimedia Integration, Outreach,[br]Quality, Languages, Multimedia.
0:07:21.153,0:07:27.074
If you have listened to the introduction[br]that you just see or hear,
0:07:27.074,0:07:31.476
and maybe have even written down[br]some of the Q numbers,
0:07:31.476,0:07:36.470
you will be able to go on the WikidataCon[br]Tourist Tour on Sunday, or on Monday,
0:07:37.086,0:07:39.725
and find what is on this map.
0:07:39.725,0:07:42.387
But I'm not going to show you longer.
0:07:43.844,0:07:46.934
Yeah... sorry, I spoiled the next slide.
0:07:46.934,0:07:50.752
It's actually music from Lucas [br]who's also involved, our amazing pianist.

And we come to the very first [br]award category.
0:08:11.538,0:08:16.663
It's, of course, Editing, [br]because if we don't edit, no data,
0:08:17.123,0:08:18.143
no Wikidata.
0:08:18.143,0:08:20.830
So this is like the source of everything.
0:08:23.478,0:08:28.302
I'm very, very happy to announce[br]this year's winner
0:08:28.302,0:08:30.408

0:08:42.977,0:08:45.362
(cheers and applause)
0:08:55.162,0:08:59.136
So, I know there is at least one person[br]who contributed to OpenRefine
0:08:59.136,0:09:00.478
in the audience.
0:09:00.478,0:09:03.034
Can you wave? You don't have [br]to come up on stage, but wave.
0:09:03.034,0:09:06.547
And everyone else who did something.[br]Wave. Woo-hoo!
0:09:06.547,0:09:07.789
(applause)
0:09:07.789,0:09:09.141
Thank you so much.
0:09:12.795,0:09:15.668
Okay, I mean, we just can't say[br]OpenRefine is cool
0:09:15.668,0:09:17.831
and everyone believes it, [br]and we can go on.
0:09:17.831,0:09:21.398
But actually, maybe some of you don't know[br]what OpenRefine actually does.
0:09:21.398,0:09:25.471
So for each award, [br]we also have a project description.
0:09:25.471,0:09:28.047
I'm handing now over to Liam
0:09:28.047,0:09:30.180
who's going to walk you[br]through the project.
0:09:30.180,0:09:31.275
Yeah.
0:09:31.275,0:09:34.020
So the great irony of me,
0:09:34.020,0:09:36.955
describing one of the most [br]technically clever tools
0:09:36.955,0:09:38.335
available in the Wikiverse...
0:09:38.335,0:09:40.476
(laughter)
0:09:40.476,0:09:43.621
...to one of the most [br]well-informed audiences
0:09:43.621,0:09:45.243
about the Wikiverse.
0:09:45.951,0:09:47.336
But if you have used--
0:09:47.843,0:09:50.052
we've seen some of the people [br]in the audience
0:09:50.052,0:09:52.919
who have been building OpenRefine.
0:09:52.919,0:09:58.214
Who in this audience [br]has utilized OpenRefine?
0:09:58.214,0:10:00.191
Great! Okay. You don't need to know.
0:10:02.741,0:10:05.294
For the benefit of the tape[br]and for the benefit of people
0:10:05.294,0:10:09.012
who have not personally[br]utilized this software--
0:10:09.012,0:10:13.062
while we provide the prize[br]behind the scenes here--
0:10:13.062,0:10:18.899
the importance of this tool is that[br]it allows to take messy data and clean it
0:10:18.899,0:10:23.546
to use for uploading or downloading,[br]or connecting to Wikidata
0:10:23.546,0:10:28.084
and other things, but especially Wikidata.
0:10:28.084,0:10:31.281
Originally, a Google project[br]that is now being turned into
0:10:31.281,0:10:37.373
a community-led project[br]for maintenance and of messy data.
0:10:39.055,0:10:45.885
The jury decided this deserved the award[br]for Editing for two primary criteria.
0:10:45.885,0:10:48.484
One, for the reconciliation function.
0:10:48.543,0:10:52.848
It's one thing to clean messy data[br]for anyone's use,
0:10:52.848,0:10:57.269
but the ability to then connect it[br]to the Wikidata items
0:10:57.269,0:10:59.741
to provide the reconciliation service.
0:10:59.741,0:11:01.386
Does this mean "that thing"?
0:11:01.386,0:11:03.843
Does this mean "that thing"? [br]Yes, no, or maybe.
0:11:03.843,0:11:08.352
It's extraordinarily important [br]for then taking your personal dataset
0:11:08.352,0:11:12.051
and connecting it [br]to the wider Wikidata universe,
0:11:12.051,0:11:13.862
semi-autonomously.
0:11:13.862,0:11:18.302
They also describe[br]that the editing functions,
0:11:18.302,0:11:22.302
the ability to export tabular data[br]and then use it directly
0:11:22.302,0:11:26.120
or into quick statements[br]was incredibly useful and powerful.
0:11:26.120,0:11:27.514
And for those reasons,
0:11:27.514,0:11:32.990
the Committee decided that OpenRefine[br]deserves the Editing Award
0:11:32.990,0:11:35.702
for the inaugural Wikidata Awards.
0:11:37.161,0:11:38.897
(applause)
0:11:42.420,0:11:47.904
And so for the actual presentation[br]of the award itself,
0:11:47.904,0:11:50.887
given this is a project on Wiki...
0:11:52.542,0:11:55.514
We are going to see now, live...
0:11:57.471,0:11:59.006
Oh, wait a minute...
0:12:02.737,0:12:06.670
Sorry... it's just... we need it because--
0:12:08.037,0:12:10.293
As you see, nothing is here.
0:12:13.066,0:12:14.904
(soft giggles)
0:12:15.734,0:12:17.719
- But...[br]- (Liam) Hopefully, this works.
0:12:18.097,0:12:19.449
(Birgit) I hope it works.
0:12:21.951,0:12:23.891
(Liam) If you refresh the page...
0:12:25.123,0:12:28.456
(Birgit) Oh... we have a bug,[br]I think, in the process?
0:12:28.926,0:12:30.879
(laughter)
0:12:34.063,0:12:37.054
(Birgit) Imagine that the award[br]is already here on the page.
0:12:37.054,0:12:38.787
(laughter)
0:12:38.922,0:12:40.094
(applause)
0:12:40.094,0:12:42.190
Go back and describe the picture.
0:12:43.467,0:12:48.143
Okay. So, it will happen soon.[br]We'll check later in the day.
0:12:48.409,0:12:49.625
(laughter)
0:12:49.625,0:12:51.665
But I can show you something here.
0:12:53.156,0:12:56.177
So that map that was shown earlier
0:12:56.177,0:12:59.444
was significant[br]for the purposes of the award
0:13:00.544,0:13:05.357
because this is... you did the work[br]of taking these photographs,
0:13:05.357,0:13:08.021
so you should describe what the award is.
0:13:09.564,0:13:12.177
So, Wikidata is in our hearts, right?
0:13:12.177,0:13:15.816
But for a moment, last Sunday evening,
0:13:15.816,0:13:19.404
it was also in a very public space[br][on there] in Berlin,
0:13:20.455,0:13:24.004
So we went through the streets,[br]not to random buildings
0:13:24.005,0:13:26.855
but to specific buildings-- [br]which ones you need to find out.
0:13:26.855,0:13:31.102
It's an interactive award,[br]so it's kind of a riddle for you.
0:13:32.039,0:13:35.884
I mean, this one is probably obvious[br]that it's Technikmuseum,
0:13:35.884,0:13:38.674
but I can promise you[br]the others are not that easy.
0:13:39.980,0:13:44.396
And so we projected it to the walls[br]of the buildings that we found
0:13:44.396,0:13:49.295
kind of fit the category[br]the awards get awarded in,
0:13:50.963,0:13:52.942
and had it for a moment [br]in the public space
0:13:52.942,0:13:54.431
and took a photo of that.
0:13:55.551,0:13:57.243
That's the story of the award.
0:13:59.596,0:14:01.023
Touching, right?
0:14:01.023,0:14:02.441
(laughter)
0:14:02.441,0:14:08.758
Well, the idea is we provide the "image,"[br]the one-time-only piece of public ad,
0:14:08.758,0:14:13.333
temporary public ad[br]as the image on the project page.
0:14:13.333,0:14:15.799
- That's the award.[br]- That's the award.
0:14:15.799,0:14:18.225
- Are we there already?[br]- Is it loaded?
0:14:22.112,0:14:23.340
- Okay.[br]- Nope.
0:14:23.340,0:14:28.087
Okay. So just use your imagination,[br]and we go on to the next...
0:14:28.087,0:14:29.757
I'm sure you have it.
0:14:29.757,0:14:31.871
- Oh, the Wi-Fi is off.[br]- (man) No.
0:14:31.871,0:14:33.958
- Ours? Yeah, it's not us.[br]- That's the Internet.
0:14:33.958,0:14:35.494
It's not our task.
0:14:36.999,0:14:38.331
- We just go, right?[br]- Yeah.

0:14:58.634,0:15:01.185
what is important for Wikidata[br]Community Building?
0:15:01.185,0:15:06.482
Any activity that helps to develop[br]or to strengthen a community,
0:15:06.482,0:15:09.865
and we're like way, way...[br]way, way more activities
0:15:09.865,0:15:12.266
that you can possibly award in the world.
0:15:12.266,0:15:18.460
But in the end, [br]there's a winner for this year.

I think maybe[br]there are people in the room.
0:15:46.752,0:15:48.988
Can you wave if you are here?
0:15:48.988,0:15:51.116
Yay! Cool!
0:15:51.116,0:15:52.544

0:15:52.544,0:15:54.904
Thank you so much. Congratulations!
0:15:58.028,0:16:00.011
And I'm handing it over to you, I guess.
0:16:00.011,0:16:01.723
We can also try the photo thing again?
0:16:01.723,0:16:03.435
Maybe, maybe?
0:16:04.710,0:16:06.056
- No.[br]- Okay, no.
0:16:06.056,0:16:07.971
That was a definite "no" for me.
0:16:09.437,0:16:12.944
So, while we upload that file to Commons
0:16:12.944,0:16:16.807
and eventually place it [br]on the project page itself
0:16:16.807,0:16:19.602
as the award, it's the trophy,[br]for the project page,
0:16:19.602,0:16:24.474
Wikiproject India, which in my opinion,[br]has the coolest logo award.
0:16:25.970,0:16:27.404
Does anyone...
0:16:27.404,0:16:30.290
are there any other[br]Wikiprojects in Wikidata
0:16:30.290,0:16:35.885
that utilize the national flag logo[br]with the Wikidata bars?
0:16:38.309,0:16:39.444
I mean, that's pretty cool.
0:16:39.444,0:16:43.992
So, Wikidata Project India[br]as would be, hopefully, fairly evident
0:16:43.992,0:16:50.137
is about for and by the Indian community,[br]the languages of the Indian sub-continent
0:16:50.137,0:16:55.762
and supporting the content[br]and the contributors
0:16:55.762,0:16:59.788
to that geography culture history.
0:17:01.151,0:17:04.187
The jury decided
0:17:04.187,0:17:08.653
that this was particularly[br]worthy of this award.
0:17:08.653,0:17:11.401
This community was[br]particularly worthy of this award
0:17:11.401,0:17:16.474
because of its ability to share skills[br]to and among each other,
0:17:16.474,0:17:20.887
the providing offline groups[br]to run technical workshops,
0:17:20.887,0:17:23.764
to run editathons,[br]to run upload activities,
0:17:23.764,0:17:25.793
label translation days,
0:17:25.793,0:17:29.363
various kinds of projects[br]in real life and online
0:17:29.363,0:17:33.457
to build a community [br]that provides skills to each other
0:17:33.867,0:17:40.249
and builds stability and community[br]locally is fantastic,
0:17:40.249,0:17:44.732
is worthy of attention[br]for its community communication
0:17:44.732,0:17:49.515
among itself and to the wider Wikiverse[br]through a regular newsletter
0:17:49.515,0:17:51.715
and active accounts on social media,
0:17:51.715,0:17:55.649
and for the amount of content[br]that they have produced
0:17:55.649,0:17:58.912
for and by, and about their subject area.
0:17:59.532,0:18:02.245
This is an image, also from Commons,
0:18:02.245,0:18:05.461
of one period of time[br]changes data ingestion
0:18:05.461,0:18:08.250
about a particular state, West Bengal.
0:18:09.523,0:18:12.681
Some of the example statistics[br]there in the bottom:
0:18:13.993,0:18:18.515
50 India properties, [br]specifically 13,000 individual hospitals
0:18:18.515,0:18:21.663
now have Wikidata items about them.
0:18:21.663,0:18:23.269
So there's been an incredible increase
0:18:23.269,0:18:27.619
in the quality and the quantity[br]of content about India,
0:18:27.619,0:18:30.486
thanks largely to this community.

0:19:08.557,0:19:11.689
I've seen it. I actually looked at [br]OpenRefine a second ago,
0:19:11.689,0:19:12.895
it's already there.
0:19:12.895,0:19:15.942
If you want to go back in history[br]and look in Wikidata.

So, the next category [br]is for category Ecosystem.
0:20:10.772,0:20:13.983
That's the word[br]that we often use for anything...
0:20:17.544,0:20:22.179
that shows how connected Wikidata is[br]in the world with other projects,
0:20:22.179,0:20:24.795
partners, and so on.
0:20:24.795,0:20:27.027

Ecosystem, it sounds nice.
0:20:30.642,0:20:36.358
And as in every other category, [br]we have a winner here for this year.

0:20:58.914,0:21:00.847
(cheers and applause)
0:21:05.914,0:21:10.867
Okay. Let's have a deeper look[br]into Sum of All Paintings.
0:21:12.479,0:21:14.229
While we upload the file.
0:21:14.229,0:21:16.776
The files themselves, [br]the buildings themselves
0:21:16.776,0:21:20.746
are significant to the category,
0:21:20.746,0:21:25.624
but to find out why, [br]you might have to ask later.
0:21:25.624,0:21:30.326
Sum of All Paintings, SoAP,[br]does not have a logo of its own
0:21:30.326,0:21:34.143
so these are for Commons pictures[br]that depict soap bubbles...
0:21:34.143,0:21:36.924
(laughter)
0:21:36.924,0:21:38.375
...of many.
0:21:38.375,0:21:43.931
A surprisingly large number of paintings[br]about soap and soap bubbles.
0:21:43.937,0:21:45.257
I kid you not.
0:21:45.267,0:21:48.840
So, Sum of All Paintings[br]was the brainchild
0:21:48.840,0:21:55.347
to create a Wikidata item[br]about every notable painting.
0:21:55.777,0:22:00.564
Notable in the context of [br]is hung in a public gallery,
0:22:00.564,0:22:05.082
a major gallery, or is painted by a person[br]who is known as a famous painter.
0:22:05.082,0:22:09.265
Not every painting that has ever existed,[br]but every notable painting.
0:22:09.265,0:22:15.949
This has produced lots of work lists[br]that have resulted from that
0:22:15.949,0:22:20.866
and lots of side projects around that,[br]as in Ecosystem.
0:22:20.866,0:22:24.324
So, every painter, every collection.
0:22:24.754,0:22:29.401
What made this project cool[br]from the perspective of the jury
0:22:29.401,0:22:34.789
was the scale of the leadership,
0:22:34.789,0:22:37.029
of the quality, and of the impact.
0:22:37.861,0:22:40.899
These are some of the demonstrations[br]of the work lists,
0:22:40.899,0:22:43.262
demonstration of the content.
0:22:43.262,0:22:45.796
Don't expect to read this.[br]It's scrolling through quickly
0:22:45.796,0:22:48.879
to demonstrate the sheer volume[br]of work behind it,
0:22:48.879,0:22:52.780
the leadership, the tools,[br]the processes, the workflows,
0:22:52.780,0:22:56.533
this you might recognize[br]has now been turned into [integravity]
0:22:57.153,0:23:02.130
which is a tool usable by other projects[br]for their workflow management
0:23:02.130,0:23:05.014
and quality assessment criteria.
0:23:05.364,0:23:10.411
The consistently high standard [br]of the items at the upload stage
0:23:10.899,0:23:13.499
and also at the mass upload stage,
0:23:13.499,0:23:19.566
and then also the individual manual,[br]careful work to curate items
0:23:19.946,0:23:24.502
at an individual [br]and as a handcrafted list level.
0:23:24.502,0:23:28.723
So it really shows the breadth[br]of quality and quantity
0:23:29.333,0:23:31.705
of the Wikidata ecosystem,
0:23:31.705,0:23:35.817
and the impact Sum of All Paintings
0:23:35.817,0:23:39.219
has proven incredibly important
0:23:39.219,0:23:45.478

0:23:46.151,0:23:49.459
at scale and openly.
0:23:50.507,0:23:56.520
The interoperability of Open Glam[br]as demonstrable by Sum of All Paintings
0:23:56.520,0:24:01.368
has improved the viability[br]and the light bulb moment
0:24:01.368,0:24:04.323
for so many people in the cultural sector
0:24:04.683,0:24:09.868

So there's actually a fun story[br]what happened
0:25:32.501,0:25:39.103
when we were trying to find a good spot[br]to project Ateliers Wikidata à Paris
0:25:39.103,0:25:41.824
against the walls[br]of a certain building in Berlin.
0:25:41.824,0:25:44.706
We were like trying [br]and holding up a projector,
0:25:44.706,0:25:48.326
and suddenly a person approached us[br]and maybe you are watching,
0:25:48.326,0:25:50.200
it was really nice to meet you.
0:25:51.463,0:25:56.285
So the person approached us and said,[br]"Oh! I just edited Wikidata yesterday."
0:25:57.775,0:26:02.281
And we were like, "Oh, that's great.[br]You didn't see anything, okay?"
0:26:03.045,0:26:04.445
(laughter)
0:26:04.712,0:26:07.373
And I think he didn't reveal[br]the secret, that's really nice.
0:26:07.373,0:26:09.440
It was really nice to meet you. Thank you.
0:26:09.440,0:26:11.675
But just as a tip,
0:26:11.675,0:26:15.885
if you ever plan a secret Wikidata mission[br]and no one should know,
0:26:15.885,0:26:18.841
be aware that Wikidata's editors [br]are everywhere
0:26:18.841,0:26:20.902
and you would not think, right?
0:26:20.902,0:26:23.098
So it can happen anytime.
0:26:25.315,0:26:26.491
Okay.
0:26:27.983,0:26:29.450
Let's have a look.
0:26:30.080,0:26:32.020
(Liam) I'm sorry...[br](Birgit laughs)
0:26:32.680,0:26:37.671
The Wikidata Ateliers à Paris is a series[br]of newcomer-friendly workshops,
0:26:37.671,0:26:42.271
introductory workshops[br]at the Wikimedia France office in Paris
0:26:42.271,0:26:48.005
that have been held over several years[br]on a consistent schedule
0:26:48.005,0:26:51.855
to build a community[br]to be a welcoming home
0:26:51.855,0:26:54.556
for a large city,
0:26:54.556,0:27:00.070
to slowly grow[br]and steadily invite new people
0:27:00.070,0:27:02.507
and bring them into our family.
0:27:02.807,0:27:09.122
The jury decided that this was worthy[br]of particular mention
0:27:09.862,0:27:13.276
of the various kinds[br]of outreach to newcomers
0:27:13.276,0:27:15.765

0:27:15.765,0:27:18.100
there we have the plushy matching.
0:27:19.840,0:27:21.899
...because of its consistency.
0:27:22.564,0:27:26.114
So there are lots of outreach activities[br]that have happened
0:27:26.114,0:27:31.600
for newcomers across Wikimedia[br]and across Wikidata in particular.
0:27:35.702,0:27:39.307
But this one has been going for years.
0:27:39.307,0:27:41.887
That is quite impressive...
0:27:43.879,0:27:47.141
to keep working at something like that,
0:27:47.141,0:27:51.528
and equally, obviously,[br]for its welcoming atmosphere
0:27:51.528,0:27:54.376
and consistently welcoming[br]atmosphere over that time.

0:28:00.894,0:28:04.969

Wikidata Infobox on Commons!
0:29:32.484,0:29:34.576
(applause)
0:29:43.001,0:29:45.049
Yeah. Thank you, Mike.
0:29:45.049,0:29:46.642
(laughter)
0:29:50.512,0:29:55.441
Yeah, it was one of the most [br]difficult photos to take
0:29:55.441,0:30:00.690
because this is a window,[br]as you can see, a glass window.
0:30:00.690,0:30:04.264
But we kind of fitted, maybe not to...[br]it fitted to the category,
0:30:04.264,0:30:06.451
maybe not to Wikidata Infobox [br]on Commons so much,
0:30:06.451,0:30:08.405
but it fitted to the category.
0:30:09.041,0:30:11.597
And thank you very much,[br]and we are having a deeper look
0:30:11.597,0:30:16.463
into what actually Wikidata's [br]Infobox on Commons does.
0:30:18.148,0:30:19.163
Yeah.
0:30:19.163,0:30:25.749
So, as any of you who were here[br]for the birthday presents
0:30:25.749,0:30:27.414
will have heard this,
0:30:27.414,0:30:33.009
has since been improved and expanded[br]in terms of Wikidata on Commons.
0:30:33.493,0:30:36.910
But the jury found that this was[br]particularly important and noteworthy
0:30:36.910,0:30:39.093
for the Integration category.
0:30:39.093,0:30:41.695
Wikidata Infobox on Commons[br]is the template
0:30:41.695,0:30:46.464
that allows you to put[br]a Wikipedia-like box of structured data
0:30:46.464,0:30:50.777
on the category about that thing[br]on Wikimedia Commons.
0:30:50.777,0:30:54.754
Most important, because it's multilingual.
0:30:54.754,0:31:00.151
It's the first time we've really been able[br]to show Commons is a multilingual project
0:31:00.151,0:31:04.549
because it works in all languages[br]with one template.
0:31:05.674,0:31:11.992
This is one of Mike's model examples
0:31:11.992,0:31:15.803
for the project Telescopes.
0:31:20.692,0:31:24.787
The importance of the project...
0:31:24.787,0:31:26.721
being the complexity.
0:31:26.721,0:31:30.727
It's hard to make a screenshot[br]of a long infobox.
0:31:30.923,0:31:32.488
(laughter)
0:31:33.956,0:31:37.089
So the jury found this project [br]was particularly useful
0:31:37.089,0:31:40.339
for Wikidata integration[br]for three main criteria.
0:31:40.339,0:31:43.454
One is the flexibility.
0:31:43.454,0:31:49.383
It's the fact that this one template[br]works with over 300 properties
0:31:50.400,0:31:52.183
and can pull them in...
0:31:52.183,0:31:56.884
with one field.
0:31:57.496,0:32:01.246
The scale of this single tool
0:32:01.246,0:32:04.281
was the second criteria [br]the jury found really important.
0:32:04.281,0:32:05.311
That this is used
0:32:05.311,0:32:08.681
across two and a half million[br]categories on Commons,
0:32:08.681,0:32:13.457
demonstrates that it is useful[br]to such a huge proportion
0:32:13.457,0:32:18.750
of one of the most utilized[br]sister projects in the Wikiverse.
0:32:18.750,0:32:22.503
And that you can pull together[br]these two projects
0:32:22.503,0:32:27.849
to such a high degree of connectivity[br]at such a high scale
0:32:27.849,0:32:30.364
is a fantastic demonstration.
0:32:30.364,0:32:33.694
And demonstration [br]proof to Wikimedia Commons
0:32:33.694,0:32:39.155
and to the rest of the Wikimedia projects
0:32:39.155,0:32:44.580
that Wikidata can serve information[br]that is useful, that is multilingual,
0:32:44.580,0:32:47.197
that is available right now.
0:32:48.347,0:32:53.347
Arguably, first and best, [br]in terms of demonstrations
0:32:53.347,0:32:57.898
that Wikidata, as a service delivery,[br]as a support for the other projects
0:32:57.898,0:33:00.831
has shown this
0:33:00.831,0:33:05.509
to the non-Wikidata[br]community of Wikimedia
0:33:05.509,0:33:07.169
most successfully.
0:33:07.659,0:33:11.609
So, for that, we give you an award.
0:33:12.094,0:33:14.394
(applause)
0:33:24.211,0:33:25.895
Soon... we'll give you an award soon.
0:33:25.895,0:33:28.178
Ah, here it is.[br]Of course, it is below the infobox.
0:33:29.130,0:33:30.937
The infobox is long, right?
0:33:30.937,0:33:32.737
It's a long infobox.
0:33:32.737,0:33:37.995
And this image manages to combine [br]Wikipedia, Wikidata, Commons,

they're often in some individual people[br]who have done a lot of visible work
0:34:35.211,0:34:37.878
for which they deserve credit.
0:34:37.878,0:34:41.172
But there's also a lot of people [br]who have done a lot of pieces of work,

0:36:52.925,0:36:54.930
The Wikidata Lab.
0:36:55.500,0:37:00.062
This is a series of thematic edit-a-thons[br]and presentations
0:37:00.062,0:37:03.142
at the University of São Paulo in Brazil.
0:37:03.142,0:37:07.010
Monthly meetings [br]which have brought together researchers--
0:37:07.010,0:37:10.843
so academics, people [br]in the professional sectors like GLAM,
0:37:10.843,0:37:13.460
students, and Wikimedians
0:37:13.460,0:37:17.969
who might be now or might formerly be[br]in any of those categories,
0:37:18.529,0:37:21.343
to work together, to learn from each other
0:37:21.343,0:37:26.791
and share their experiences [br]in a regular project,
0:37:26.791,0:37:29.543
a regular community forum.
0:37:30.994,0:37:34.872
The jury found this project
0:37:34.872,0:37:39.894
particularly worthy[br]for recognition in Outreach
0:37:39.894,0:37:41.712
because of its sustainability.
0:37:41.712,0:37:45.630
So it has been, like some[br]of the other prizes this evening,
0:37:45.630,0:37:48.397
has been running for a number of years,
0:37:48.397,0:37:53.230
has run regular activities [br]over that period of time
0:37:53.230,0:37:54.582
on different topics.
0:37:54.582,0:37:57.971
The consistency of that outreach work
0:37:57.971,0:37:59.781
is significant.
0:38:00.572,0:38:06.008
The practicality of project [br]has been noted.
0:38:06.008,0:38:11.664
So that is the attempt to provide skills,[br]practical skills to people
0:38:11.664,0:38:14.447
in this particular community,[br]this particular language
0:38:14.447,0:38:19.013
that is shareable among [br]that wider community of the language,
0:38:19.013,0:38:23.757
so it's one city, but across[br]an entire language community,
0:38:23.757,0:38:27.223
which is on several continents,
0:38:27.223,0:38:33.243
and the focus on bringing people[br]from different Wikimedia projects,
0:38:33.243,0:38:35.471
not just talking to Wikidata people,
0:38:35.471,0:38:39.863
but talking to Wikipedia people,[br]to Commons people, Wikisource people,
0:38:39.863,0:38:42.745
and connecting each other [br]with these new skills
0:38:42.745,0:38:45.912
about how Wikidata can be helpful to them,
0:38:46.432,0:38:50.181
particularly for, [br]as the nomination statement
0:38:50.181,0:38:52.208
also pointed out,
0:38:52.208,0:38:55.370
to focus on a Global South community
0:38:56.630,0:38:58.513
in doing that work.
0:38:58.513,0:39:04.740
This is not people in the office[br]in America or Germany,
0:39:04.740,0:39:09.537
this is people in the community[br]working to share skills to each other.
0:39:09.537,0:39:11.590
Finally, the integration, as mentioned.
0:39:11.590,0:39:15.425
The work across different parts[br]of the Wikimedia ecosystem
0:39:15.425,0:39:20.435
has made Wikidata highly accepted,[br]adopted, and integrated
0:39:20.435,0:39:26.627
across the Portuguese Wikimedia projects[br]in a way that is notable
0:39:26.627,0:39:30.626
compared to some of the other large[br]language communities.
0:39:30.626,0:39:33.876
This is a screenshot[br]of the YouTube channel
0:39:33.876,0:39:37.110
of all of the videos from this series.
0:39:37.110,0:39:39.360
They're all available, [br]they're all live-streamed,
0:39:39.360,0:39:42.681
they've all been shared on Commons[br]and YouTube, and various platforms.
0:39:42.681,0:39:47.043
So, the ability to then send [br]that information to other communities
0:39:47.043,0:39:49.461
was part of the design of this project.
0:39:49.461,0:39:52.528
It's not just for São Paulo, [br]not just for the students,
0:39:52.528,0:39:56.530
or not only for the students, [br]but for the wider community.
0:39:56.530,0:40:03.531
So, for that, the jury has declared[br]Wikidata Lab the winner.

0:43:40.784,0:43:43.949
to how Wikidata works.
0:43:43.949,0:43:48.515
Introduced in 2003, [br]Mix'n'match became core.
0:43:48.886,0:43:53.270
Who would consider Mix'n'match[br]to be a standard part
0:43:53.270,0:43:56.871
of their Wikidata workflow [br]on almost a daily basis?
0:43:58.238,0:44:00.129
A large proportion of the audience.
0:44:00.722,0:44:02.239
(laughter)
0:44:04.159,0:44:07.512
The influential work of Mix'n'match
0:44:07.512,0:44:11.435
is also noted for this Quality award
0:44:11.435,0:44:16.147
because of its ability to make wide[br]and deep connections
0:44:16.147,0:44:18.623
of our collections of content [br]and vocabularies
0:44:18.623,0:44:20.751
to external...
0:44:20.751,0:44:26.032
many external vocabulary lists,
0:44:26.032,0:44:28.212
controlled lists,
0:44:28.212,0:44:31.484
to connect them and make [br]what has been termed Wikidata,
0:44:31.484,0:44:34.352
termed "the Internet's duct tape,"
0:44:34.352,0:44:39.971
holding all of these disparate systems[br]that have their own authority lists
0:44:39.971,0:44:41.722
but don't talk to each other,
0:44:41.722,0:44:45.297
and we're able to connect[br]them all to each other.
0:44:45.297,0:44:50.734
Another description which I heard recently[br]was the Wood Wide Web,
0:44:51.353,0:44:53.570
as in the mycelial network--
0:44:53.570,0:44:58.571
the root structure underneath the soil[br]of the forest that is the Internet
0:44:58.571,0:45:01.377
connecting all of the forest together.
0:45:01.377,0:45:04.437
Mix'n'match has become[br]so fundamental to Wikidata,
0:45:04.437,0:45:08.700
which has made Wikidata so fundamental[br]to the architecture of the Internet.
0:45:08.700,0:45:11.598
For that, we award it the Quality award.
0:45:19.933,0:45:21.249
(quiet laughter)
0:45:21.249,0:45:23.666
For that, we will award the Quality award.
0:45:23.666,0:45:24.825
(laughter)
0:45:26.124,0:45:28.094
Yeah, congratulations.

0:46:11.657,0:46:14.882
So as you all know,[br]this conference has the theme:
0:46:14.882,0:46:16.924
Languages, Wikidata Languages.
0:46:16.924,0:46:21.491
And so, that's why we also have[br]a category Languages--
0:46:21.991,0:46:26.614
anything that helps to increase [br]multilingual content and so on, and so on,
0:46:26.614,0:46:28.413
in the category Languages.

0:46:46.116,0:46:48.550
We'll talk more about it. [br]Let's talk about it.
0:46:48.910,0:46:50.833
Alright, let's look at Menu Challenge.
0:46:51.163,0:46:57.002
Do we have anyone who helped create[br]Menu Challenge here in the audience?
0:46:59.661,0:47:01.975
No? Yes? We have one?
0:47:01.975,0:47:04.018
Do we have anyone who was a participant
0:47:04.018,0:47:07.092
in either of the rounds[br]of the Menu Challenge?
0:47:07.092,0:47:09.726
A couple here in the audience. Excellent.
0:47:10.075,0:47:13.493
So the Wikidata Menu Challenge #tastydata,
0:47:13.493,0:47:18.464
is a Wikidata label campaign/competition
0:47:18.464,0:47:20.195
that has been run a couple of times
0:47:20.195,0:47:21.461
over the years.
0:47:21.461,0:47:24.475
This is a competition to take a list
0:47:24.475,0:47:29.103
of a fixed vocabulary list about food
0:47:29.103,0:47:34.442
and to self-assigned points[br]for translating labels, descriptions,
0:47:34.442,0:47:39.380
audio files, photographs[br]about those food items.
0:47:39.380,0:47:43.825
Both of these works were coordinated[br]out of Wikimedia Sweden,
0:47:43.825,0:47:46.358
both of these were related[br]to Swedish events.
0:47:46.358,0:47:48.612
One was a food festival,
0:47:48.612,0:47:53.698
where the eventual translations got placed[br]as labels at the food festival
0:47:53.698,0:47:55.294
around the park.
0:47:55.294,0:47:59.780
And again, more recently,[br]Wikimania in Stockholm,
0:47:59.780,0:48:01.678
just a couple of months ago.
0:48:01.678,0:48:06.163
The jury found this project[br]particularly worthwhile,
0:48:06.163,0:48:08.453
worthy of noting for the Language category
0:48:08.453,0:48:14.805
because of its combination [br]in real life and online work
0:48:15.364,0:48:19.048
to bring Wikidata out[br]into the restaurant app
0:48:19.048,0:48:24.067
into the park and the field[br]and to connect the enjoyableness
0:48:24.067,0:48:28.215
of food editing and fun[br]and put them into one package.
0:48:29.143,0:48:32.548
Many projects and competitions[br]and events happened
0:48:32.548,0:48:34.667
entirely behind the computer.
0:48:34.667,0:48:39.533
This as a language campaign[br]is notable for that connectivity
0:48:39.533,0:48:43.462
to being out and sharing food together.
0:48:43.462,0:48:45.874
There's nothing more international[br]and multilingual
0:48:45.874,0:48:49.198
than the sharing of food[br]and sharing of food stories
0:48:49.198,0:48:51.193
and culture around food.
0:48:51.743,0:48:55.149
Multilingualism, [br]obviously for the language prize,
0:48:55.149,0:48:59.196
was the other criteria[br]that the jury noted in particular,
0:49:00.066,0:49:02.480
highlighting how Wikidata
0:49:02.480,0:49:05.514
is our multilingual project[br]in such a fundamental way
0:49:05.514,0:49:11.213
by using core vocabulary[br]relevant to so many cultures
0:49:11.213,0:49:16.021
about such important topics[br]that can then be taken forward and used.
0:49:16.021,0:49:21.223
Replicability was the third criteria [br]that was important for the jury.
0:49:21.223,0:49:25.339
The fact that this can be created quickly,
0:49:25.339,0:49:29.927
that a community can build around [br]this competition quickly.
0:49:29.927,0:49:32.770
It can be run easily, cheaply,
0:49:32.770,0:49:36.727
minimal infrastructure [br]to create a useful outcome
0:49:36.727,0:49:39.471
beyond possibly the scope[br]that you were originally hoping.
0:49:39.471,0:49:43.887
So the ease of use and the ease[br]of reuse by different people
0:49:43.887,0:49:48.040
for different activities outside food[br]and outside Sweden, if you want,
0:49:48.640,0:49:50.206
was notable.
0:49:50.206,0:49:55.129
This is the list from[br]Wikimania Stockholm recently,
0:49:55.129,0:49:58.883
and many people in this audience[br]were participants in that,
0:49:58.883,0:50:01.696
sharing images, sharing their own words
0:50:01.696,0:50:04.196
and the translations of those words[br]in their home language.
0:50:04.196,0:50:09.213
So, for that, the jury has awarded[br]the Languages prize.
0:50:11.268,0:50:12.641
And there we go.

0:51:44.968,0:51:46.859
Are you in the room? Anyone?
0:51:47.289,0:51:49.307
- Over there.[br]- Yoo-hoo!
0:51:49.307,0:51:51.033

Okay. It's yours.
0:51:55.926,0:52:00.170
So, ISA for the Multimedia award,[br]on a bridge girder.
0:52:03.519,0:52:06.120
Has anyone in the audience[br]used or been involved
0:52:06.120,0:52:07.972
in one of the ISA campaigns?
0:52:09.936,0:52:11.897
Half the audience here?
0:52:11.897,0:52:16.303
For a relatively new project,[br]that's really quite impressive.
0:52:16.303,0:52:20.604
This is one of the first projects [br]to utilize Structured Data on Commons,
0:52:20.604,0:52:24.187
as a third-party, built on top[br]of Structured Data on Commons.
0:52:24.187,0:52:26.070
which itself is quite new,
0:52:26.070,0:52:30.489
so the ability to then produce new games
0:52:30.489,0:52:33.651
on top of it is fantastic.
0:52:34.119,0:52:38.905
ISA is a multilingual mobile-oriented,
0:52:38.905,0:52:44.963
also desktop project tool game[br]to add structured data to Commons,
0:52:44.963,0:52:48.717
quickly, easily and fun[br]in a campaign environment.
0:52:50.195,0:52:53.613
The jury found this particularly cool.
0:52:53.613,0:52:55.899
This is a demonstration[br]of how to go about it.
0:52:55.899,0:53:00.124
So you choose a campaign [br]from the homepage.
0:53:00.767,0:53:04.231
You can see there the highlights[br]of who is the most active user,
0:53:04.231,0:53:06.629
or you can see potentially [br]different countries
0:53:06.629,0:53:08.977
or different categories[br]within that competition.
0:53:08.977,0:53:10.854
So you can select your category.
0:53:11.946,0:53:17.543
This is for public arts [br]in Wikilabs Africa.
0:53:18.532,0:53:23.182
It gives you an image, [br]you add it to Depicts, statement.
0:53:23.182,0:53:27.233
You can declare it to be prominent[br]within the field, within the image itself,
0:53:27.233,0:53:30.324
add the other ones that[br]might not be quite so prominent,
0:53:31.761,0:53:33.237
and Save.
0:53:35.961,0:53:38.894
And that takes you directly across to...
0:53:41.500,0:53:44.478
takes those Depicts statements [br]and put them immediately in Commons
0:53:44.478,0:53:47.706
right there on the structured data tab.
0:53:48.156,0:53:50.297
Mark this as Prominent, if you want.
0:53:50.297,0:53:51.929
So, really easy interface,
0:53:51.929,0:53:55.347
really fun way [br]to take a particular section
0:53:55.347,0:53:56.998
of your campaign.
0:53:56.998,0:54:00.616
The collaboration [br]between different communities
0:54:00.616,0:54:02.573
or different parts of the [br]Wikidata community
0:54:02.573,0:54:03.827
was important for the jury.
0:54:03.827,0:54:09.950
So, Histropedia, Wiki in Africa,[br]and the Structured Data on Commons teams
0:54:09.950,0:54:11.519
worked together to help support this
0:54:11.519,0:54:12.883
to demonstrate
0:54:12.883,0:54:18.907
that mobile-friendly[br]campaign/competition programs
0:54:18.907,0:54:22.850
could be built and could be fun[br]on Structured Data on Commons
0:54:22.850,0:54:24.151
and that it's scalable,
0:54:24.151,0:54:28.408
that you can use this, not just for that[br]one activity for Wikilabs Africa,
0:54:28.408,0:54:31.261
but as you can see in the original,[br]on the front page,
0:54:31.261,0:54:33.663
there's lots of campaigns already
0:54:33.663,0:54:37.765
and you can just add your own[br]for your community's project
0:54:37.765,0:54:41.038
and run a competition[br]straight away if you want.
0:54:41.038,0:54:47.155
And for that, the jury decided[br]to award the Multimedia award to ISA.

As said in the beginning,[br]there are way more cool projects out there
0:55:44.150,0:55:47.448
that we could award of the Committee,
0:55:47.448,0:55:51.030
and also in summer [br]when the Coolest Tool Award was over,
0:55:51.030,0:55:52.996
several people feedbacked.
0:55:52.996,0:55:54.170
That was actually great,
0:55:54.170,0:55:57.153
but it would also be great to have [br]an Honorable Mention section.
0:55:57.802,0:56:00.583
And as this award is the next award,
0:56:00.583,0:56:03.636
we decided to have [br]an Honorable Mention section
0:56:03.636,0:56:06.678
also because we felt less bad,
0:56:07.278,0:56:09.721
and it made us feel better
0:56:09.721,0:56:14.004
because we could actually[br]secretly award more projects
0:56:14.004,0:56:18.422
when we allowed ourselves to award.
0:56:20.281,0:56:25.138
Yeah... and let's have a look [br]into those projects.
0:56:25.138,0:56:28.003
I think you need a second microphone?
0:56:29.350,0:56:32.041
Is there a second microphone [br]somewhere in the room?
0:56:32.882,0:56:36.142
Okay, wait. There's someone[br]with another one.
0:56:36.142,0:56:37.356
Thank you.
0:56:37.356,0:56:40.345
- Okay, I think that makes it easier.[br]- Testing, testing.
0:56:40.345,0:56:41.895
Test, test, test.
0:56:41.895,0:56:47.408
So, in an Honorable Mentions category--[br]of which there is one category--
0:56:49.024,0:56:50.211
DataDrainer.
0:56:50.211,0:56:53.424
This allows you to delete content[br]in clean-up activities.
0:56:54.241,0:56:57.584
