  • 0:07 - 0:09
    Alright. Let's do some presents.
  • 0:10 - 0:11
    How this is going to work
  • 0:11 - 0:15
    is that the presenters get
    roughly two minutes
  • 0:15 - 0:19
    to show their present.
  • 0:21 - 0:22
    You get to applaud.
  • 0:22 - 0:25
    Questions at the very, very end
    if we have time.
  • 0:27 - 0:30
    So, we're going to start
  • 0:30 - 0:32
    with Joachim.
  • 0:34 - 0:36
    Whos going to talk about
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    the 20th Century Press Archives.
  • 0:38 - 0:40
    Thanks.
  • 0:42 - 0:48
    I'm presenting the first part
    of a data donation by ZBW
  • 0:48 - 0:51
    from the 20th Century Press Archives,
  • 0:52 - 0:55
    which is to our best knowledge
  • 0:55 - 0:59
    the largest public newspaper clippings
    archived in the world.
  • 1:00 - 1:04
    It has existed from 2008 to--
  • 1:04 - 1:07
    from 1908 to 2005.
  • 1:08 - 1:12
    And it evaluated more
    than 1,500 periodicals
  • 1:12 - 1:16
    from Germany and from all over the world.
  • 1:17 - 1:20
    The material was organized
    in folders
  • 1:20 - 1:21
    as you see here.
  • 1:22 - 1:25
    From a small corner
    from a persons archive,
  • 1:26 - 1:29
    and 25,000 folders
  • 1:30 - 1:32
    with more than 2 million articles
  • 1:32 - 1:35
    and digitalized pages
    are online now.
  • 1:37 - 1:41
    The integration of the persons archive
    metadata to Wikidata
  • 1:42 - 1:44
    has been completed most recently.
  • 1:45 - 1:48
    And all of the more
    than 5,000 person folders
  • 1:48 - 1:51
    are accessible from Wikidata now.
  • 1:52 - 1:54
    More than 6,000 facts
  • 1:54 - 1:57
    sourced from the person's archive metadata
  • 1:58 - 1:59
    has been edited Wikidata
  • 1:59 - 2:05
    and this includes rather
    complex relations
  • 2:05 - 2:08
    like between persons and companies,
  • 2:08 - 2:11
    and their role in the company.
  • 2:14 - 2:17
    The next big challenge will be
  • 2:17 - 2:21
    the countries and categories archive
  • 2:22 - 2:24
    with more than 9,000 folders
  • 2:25 - 2:28
    which is organized by--
  • 2:28 - 2:29
    Yes?
  • 2:30 - 2:33
    A hierarchy of countries
    and hierarchy of categories.
  • 2:33 - 2:39
    It's a whole system
    of knowledge organization
  • 2:39 - 2:41
    about the whole world.
  • 2:42 - 2:44
    Materialized in newspaper clippings
  • 2:44 - 2:46
    and to match this in data
    is a challenge,
  • 2:46 - 2:49
    so please consider to join
  • 2:49 - 2:53
    the WikiProject
    20th Century Press Archives.
  • 2:53 - 2:55
    (applause)
  • 2:59 - 3:00
    Thank you Joachim.
  • 3:04 - 3:05
    Alright.
  • 3:07 - 3:08
    Lucas.
  • 3:09 - 3:10
    Stage is yours.
  • 3:12 - 3:13
    Hello.
  • 3:13 - 3:15
    I'm presenting two things,
  • 3:15 - 3:17
    so I get four minutes--
    I've been told I've hacked the system.
  • 3:17 - 3:19
    (laughing)
    So...
  • 3:19 - 3:20
    The first thing is
  • 3:20 - 3:21
    on behalf of Wikimedia Germany,
  • 3:21 - 3:26
    which is first version
    of Lua support for lexemes.
  • 3:26 - 3:27
    (audience) Whooah!
  • 3:28 - 3:29
    (loud applause)
  • 3:31 - 3:33
    So you can see some Lua code here
  • 3:33 - 3:35
    which is there's probably
    not enough time to read that,
  • 3:35 - 3:37
    and I'm not a great Lua programmer anyway,
  • 3:37 - 3:39
    but the result is down there.
  • 3:39 - 3:41
    We have access to the lexemes,
  • 3:41 - 3:42
    forms, the census,
  • 3:42 - 3:45
    also statements which are not
    in the screenshot.
  • 3:45 - 3:47
    And it's not deployed anywhere yet
  • 3:47 - 3:50
    so that was just on my local Wiki.
    (laughing)
  • 3:51 - 3:53
    But we're hoping to get it
    at least to beta soon.
  • 3:53 - 3:55
    Probably to test WikiData
  • 3:55 - 3:57
    pretty soon afterwards
  • 3:57 - 3:59
    and then we'll see
    where it goes,
  • 3:59 - 4:00
    and it's a start at least.
  • 4:01 - 4:03
    Thanks.
    (applause)
  • 4:05 - 4:08
    And the second thing
    I'm doing as a volunteer
  • 4:09 - 4:10
    so there's--
  • 4:10 - 4:12
    I made this tool a while ago
    called Wikidata Image Positions.
  • 4:13 - 4:17
    So if you have a statement on item
    that it depicts something,
  • 4:17 - 4:19
    for example a paintinng
    could depict a person,
  • 4:19 - 4:22
    you can add a qualifier there
    saying that this--
  • 4:22 - 4:25
    where in the image this is so--
  • 4:26 - 4:28
    like this person
    is in the upper left corner
  • 4:28 - 4:29
    of the image or something,
  • 4:29 - 4:32
    and that is now supporting structured data
    on Commons as well.
  • 4:33 - 4:36
    And if the presents page is open
    somewhere...
  • 4:36 - 4:39
    No, not like that. I'm very sorry.
  • 4:41 - 4:44
    We can change that.
  • 4:44 - 4:46
    Yes, or read my emails.
    (laughing)
  • 4:48 - 4:50
    (audience 1) So much unread media.
  • 4:50 - 4:51
    (laughing)
  • 4:54 - 4:56
    - That one.
    - There you go.
  • 4:56 - 4:58
    So, there it is.
  • 4:58 - 5:01
    This is going to be a picture I took
    earlier this year,
  • 5:01 - 5:03
    and there's already some
    structured data here
  • 5:03 - 5:05
    that says depicts
  • 5:05 - 5:07
    certain pride flags,
  • 5:07 - 5:08
    and once this loads,
  • 5:08 - 5:10
    I can define the region.
  • 5:10 - 5:13
    There we go,
    and this also now used the same library
  • 5:13 - 5:17
    as crop tool instead
    of my home grown bad thing
  • 5:17 - 5:21
    which I think Andy was
    asking for years ago,
  • 5:21 - 5:22
    and now it's finally done.
  • 5:22 - 5:24
    And I say use this region.
  • 5:24 - 5:25
    It's adding a qualifier.
  • 5:25 - 5:29
    Let's do the same thing
    over here.
  • 5:29 - 5:31
    Just roughly drawn with a mouse.
  • 5:31 - 5:33
    That should be good enough.
  • 5:34 - 5:35
    And the third one.
  • 5:38 - 5:39
    There we go.
  • 5:39 - 5:40
    Use this region.
  • 5:40 - 5:43
    And now if we check Lydia's contributions
  • 5:43 - 5:47
    - except on Commons.
    - (laughing)
  • 5:48 - 5:50
    Media.org
  • 5:50 - 5:52
    She gave me permission
    to do this by the way.
  • 5:52 - 5:53
    (laughing)
  • 5:55 - 5:56
    User contirbutions.
  • 5:57 - 6:00
    Where you can see
    some new qualifiers here,
  • 6:00 - 6:01
    and if we load this,
  • 6:01 - 6:03
    there's also used script,
    which is also hopefully working,
  • 6:03 - 6:06
    - which shows you these regions correctly
    - (crowd) Wooah! (applause)
  • 6:06 - 6:09
    on Commons.
    (applause)
  • 6:12 - 6:16
    So basically the days of this
    old annotation gadgets are numbered.
  • 6:17 - 6:18
    (laughing)
  • 6:19 - 6:23
    And that's it I think we can skip like
    dozen back-up screenshots here now
  • 6:23 - 6:25
    and go to the next person.
  • 6:25 - 6:28
    - Thanks.
    - (audience) Woohoo. (applause)
  • 6:34 - 6:35
    Which one? This one.
  • 6:35 - 6:36
    Okay,
  • 6:36 - 6:41
    So we have a Lexeme
    uploading bot.
  • 6:42 - 6:43
    It's not developed by me.
  • 6:43 - 6:46
    It's developed by Ehuyar Foundation.
  • 6:46 - 6:48
    And it's developed to upload
  • 6:48 - 6:51
    Basque language lexemes
    with all its forms
  • 6:51 - 6:53
    because its lexemes has 65 forms.
  • 6:54 - 6:56
    So, it's not something
    that we can do by hand easily.
  • 6:57 - 6:58
    And also census.
  • 7:01 - 7:03
    You can download there.
  • 7:03 - 7:05
    I don't even know how it works.
  • 7:05 - 7:06
    (laughing)
  • 7:07 - 7:10
    And all I know is that
    it's based in Wikidata Toolkit,
  • 7:10 - 7:13
    so it's a subversion of that
    and it's also in the [inaudible]
  • 7:13 - 7:15
    of Wikidata, I think.
  • 7:15 - 7:17
    That's it.
    (applause)
  • 7:17 - 7:19
    - (Lydia) Thank you.
    - (audience) Woohoo (applause)
  • 7:23 - 7:24
    Hello.
  • 7:26 - 7:28
    I may have to reload this.
    Let me just make sure.
  • 7:33 - 7:35
    Does it work? Yes. Present.
  • 7:36 - 7:37
    Great.
  • 7:37 - 7:40
    Now, this is a project
    we've been working on for a while,
  • 7:40 - 7:41
    but we are rolling it out
    for the first time
  • 7:41 - 7:44
    to a big crowd here
    at WIkidataCon
  • 7:44 - 7:46
    and we'll show you some--
    a real cool feature
  • 7:46 - 7:48
    that we didn't tell you about
    earlier today.
  • 7:48 - 7:51
    So with this is a project called
    The Wiki Art Depiction Explorer,
  • 7:51 - 7:54
    and this is an attempt
    to try give an interface
  • 7:54 - 7:57
    better than
    just editing a raw Wikidata item
  • 7:57 - 7:59
    when it comes
    to adding depiction information
  • 7:59 - 8:01
    for artworks,
    so this is a project that was funded
  • 8:01 - 8:04
    by the Night Foundation,
    and Wikimedia D.C.
  • 8:04 - 8:06
    and the Smithsonian,
    we worked together on this project
  • 8:06 - 8:08
    and with the amazing development skills
  • 8:08 - 8:10
    of Edward Betts, right here.
  • 8:11 - 8:13
    So this is an example
    of what you'll see,
  • 8:13 - 8:15
    and we invite you all to try it out.
  • 8:15 - 8:17
    art.wikidata.link
    is the URL,
  • 8:17 - 8:21
    and the idea here is that
    you can see a large version of the picture
  • 8:21 - 8:23
    and we will try to bring in
    whatever we can
  • 8:23 - 8:26
    from the object page
    of the institution
  • 8:26 - 8:28
    that holds this image.
  • 8:28 - 8:31
    So, we're bringing
    in some description information,
  • 8:31 - 8:33
    so that the person trying
    to add depict information,
  • 8:33 - 8:36
    has some additional readings
    that they can have here,
  • 8:36 - 8:40
    We also bring in some key words,
    and the great thing about this
  • 8:40 - 8:42
    when you start typing in the box,
  • 8:42 - 8:45
    you are actually given matches
    against whatever's been previously
  • 8:45 - 8:48
    matched in depictions statements.
  • 8:49 - 8:51
    So, this is a much
    tighter controlled vocabulary.
  • 8:51 - 8:54
    It gives you a much better direction
    of what to do.
  • 8:54 - 8:57
    So here is an example here,
    if this works correctly,
  • 8:57 - 8:58
    we should be able to click that.
  • 8:58 - 9:02
    And also make more edits
    on Lydia's behalf. (laughing)
  • 9:02 - 9:03
    And we can go in here
    and type in ballet,
  • 9:03 - 9:06
    and you'll see that it doesn't match
    everything on Wikidata
  • 9:06 - 9:08
    but only things that are relevant
  • 9:08 - 9:10
    based on previous depiction,
    statements,
  • 9:10 - 9:11
    so I can say ballet dancer.
  • 9:11 - 9:16
    I can go back in there
    and add these different--
  • 9:16 - 9:17
    Oops.
  • 9:20 - 9:22
    Ooh. Not sure
    why it's not working.
  • 9:22 - 9:24
    Anyway, let me go ahead
    and make those edits
  • 9:24 - 9:27
    and then now that has been committed
  • 9:27 - 9:29
    and you can actually start
    browsing other things.
  • 9:29 - 9:31
    So the idea is to keep you
    in this universe of paintings
  • 9:31 - 9:35
    and artworks, and not just
    punch you back out to Wikidata.
  • 9:35 - 9:38
    But we also have another
    bonus function
  • 9:38 - 9:41
    that Edward is going to show you.
  • 9:46 - 9:52
    So, this painting we've got date of birth
    and death for this person.
  • 9:52 - 9:56
    So, we do a search
    and these are all the people
  • 9:56 - 9:59
    that were born and died in those years
  • 10:00 - 10:01
    and so...
  • 10:02 - 10:04
    are we at Aurora?
  • 10:04 - 10:06
    - Yep. Can you see the match?
    - Which one is it?
  • 10:06 - 10:08
    - I didn't see the match.
    - Yep, further down.
  • 10:08 - 10:10
    Maria Aurora. Right there.
  • 10:10 - 10:12
    - So, if I click on that.
    - So, you click on that.
  • 10:12 - 10:14
    and then scroll down.
  • 10:14 - 10:16
    And then we go-- Oh it's...
    (laughing)
  • 10:16 - 10:17
    There you go.
  • 10:18 - 10:19
    Add these to the painting.
  • 10:19 - 10:22
    (audience 2) You need to highlight
    word metrics from the title.
  • 10:22 - 10:24
    That... it'll come.
    (laughing)
  • 10:24 - 10:26
    So, it worked.
  • 10:26 - 10:27
    It saved it to the painting.
  • 10:27 - 10:30
    So it'll match all humans
    with those birth date
  • 10:30 - 10:31
    and the death date,
  • 10:31 - 10:33
    and you can click that automatically.
  • 10:33 - 10:37
    - And that's it. So go ahead and try it.
    - (audience) Woohoo! (applause)
  • 10:39 - 10:41
    Oh, those are just some stats.
  • 10:41 - 10:43
    We had a whole bunch
    of people try it already today,
  • 10:43 - 10:45
    and we upped this number today.
  • 10:45 - 10:47
    So keep working at it. Thanks.
  • 10:58 - 10:59
    Next one is Bruno.
  • 11:05 - 11:06
    Hello.
  • 11:06 - 11:07
    I'm Bruno from Google
  • 11:07 - 11:09
    and we are open sourcing
  • 11:09 - 11:11
    what we call lexical masks.
  • 11:11 - 11:14
    A Little bit less sexier than the picture
    we just saw.
  • 11:15 - 11:19
    It's a config file that specifies
    what a lexeme needs to look like,
  • 11:19 - 11:22
    what kind of form,
    you expect in a lexeme
  • 11:22 - 11:25
    and what kind of feature you want
    on those forms.
  • 11:25 - 11:28
    Example here, it's German nouns
  • 11:28 - 11:30
    that will have a gender inherent,
  • 11:30 - 11:33
    and we'll have a couple of forms
    specified here
  • 11:33 - 11:36
    with a couple of features you expect.
  • 11:36 - 11:40
    The mask or the text files
    that you see here
  • 11:40 - 11:44
    will be uploaded to Wikidata
    so that I can help the Lexeme community
  • 11:44 - 11:48
    to check consistency
    and increase the coverage.
  • 11:48 - 11:51
    More details on the talk I gave
    earlier today
  • 11:51 - 11:52
    and Lydia's.
  • 11:52 - 11:55
    Thank you.
    (applause)
  • 12:03 - 12:06
    Yes, so in the past two years,
  • 12:06 - 12:08
    I have had an hobby
  • 12:08 - 12:10
    because I was not, let's say,
    very happy
  • 12:10 - 12:13
    with the current SPARQL implementation
    especially Blazegraph.
  • 12:13 - 12:16
    So, during my free time,
    I started a project
  • 12:16 - 12:17
    I called Oxigraph
  • 12:17 - 12:20
    so, it's basically like Blazegraph
    but different.
  • 12:20 - 12:22
    (laughing)
  • 12:22 - 12:24
    So, it starts getting in those
    states that work
  • 12:24 - 12:27
    so SPARQL queries were implemented.
  • 12:27 - 12:29
    But it's not been optimized yet,
    currently there is no optimization
  • 12:29 - 12:31
    of how queries are executed.
  • 12:31 - 12:34
    So as you're seeing
    this small experiment
  • 12:34 - 12:37
    with some SPARQL queries
    the results seem fairly promising.
  • 12:38 - 12:40
    What is nice is I used the rest
    to implement it
  • 12:40 - 12:45
    and I managed to get the memory footprint
    fairly reasonable
  • 12:45 - 12:48
    as well as some--
    Blazegraph origin
  • 12:48 - 12:51
    or [inaudible] so,
    I hope that maybe in the future
  • 12:51 - 12:54
    I'm going to get
    maybe all the people who can
  • 12:54 - 12:57
    then spend more time to make it
    ready working well,
  • 12:57 - 13:01
    we could have something very good
    for at least smaller Wikibase [inaudible]
  • 13:01 - 13:04
    with a few million
    or ten of million [inaudible].
  • 13:05 - 13:09
    So the repository is here,
    so it's not working fairly well.
  • 13:09 - 13:13
    It's a work in progress
    and if you want to test it,
  • 13:13 - 13:15
    or contribute,
    you are much welcome
  • 13:15 - 13:16
    because it's a big task.
  • 13:16 - 13:17
    Thank you.
  • 13:17 - 13:20
    (audience cheers and applause)
  • 13:29 - 13:31
    I was going to do a live demo
  • 13:31 - 13:32
    but it didn't go well earlier,
  • 13:32 - 13:33
    so this is a video,
    (laughing)
  • 13:33 - 13:35
    which...
  • 13:36 - 13:38
    Wait, I can do this on my phone right?
  • 13:40 - 13:41
    Access denied.
  • 13:42 - 13:44
    (singing) Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta
  • 13:46 - 13:47
    Two minutes.
  • 13:47 - 13:50
    Well the video is two minutes long.
    (laughing)
  • 13:51 - 13:52
    Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta
  • 13:54 - 13:56
    (audience 3) We have two people here
    from Google.
  • 13:56 - 13:59
    I'm sure they can come up
    with something. (laughing)
  • 14:00 - 14:03
    Okay, we might just watch
    it in this tab.
  • 14:03 - 14:04
    Come on.
  • 14:04 - 14:05
    Da-da-da-da-da
  • 14:05 - 14:08
    Yeah, so I did a live demo
    and I thought that would go badly.
  • 14:08 - 14:09
    But--
    (laughing)
  • 14:10 - 14:12
    So, this is something I've been working on
  • 14:12 - 14:15
    ever since creating
    the doc images two years ago
  • 14:15 - 14:19
    and this is a sort of
    shared platform website
  • 14:19 - 14:21
    where you can go ahead
    and make an account.
  • 14:21 - 14:23
    Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta
  • 14:23 - 14:25
    And then you've got a lovely button
    on the next page
  • 14:25 - 14:27
    which allows you to create a Wiki.
  • 14:27 - 14:29
    There's lot of features
    missing at the moment,
  • 14:29 - 14:31
    so you get to choose a Wiki name,
  • 14:31 - 14:33
    where it is and a user name at the moment.
  • 14:34 - 14:36
    But the possibilities are endless,
  • 14:36 - 14:39
    and it goes and creates a Wiki
    in a shared enviroment,
  • 14:39 - 14:42
    saving on all of us
    expensive resources
  • 14:42 - 14:44
    that we're all spending
    running Wikibases.
  • 14:46 - 14:48
    I recorded this just downstairs earlier
  • 14:48 - 14:51
    so, this is like, kind of real.
  • 14:51 - 14:54
    I sped it up slightly but--
  • 14:54 - 14:57
    You get emailed your media Wiki
    temporary password.
  • 14:57 - 15:00
    You can log in with the user account
    that you made.
  • 15:00 - 15:02
    Da-da-da-da.
  • 15:03 - 15:04
    Then you have to change your password.
  • 15:04 - 15:07
    This is where I just copy
    part of the URL in.
  • 15:07 - 15:08
    (laughing)
  • 15:10 - 15:13
    And then you're logged into your
    very own Wikibase
  • 15:13 - 15:16
    that has quick statements,
    a career service,
  • 15:16 - 15:19
    everything managed for you
    that you don't have to worry about.
  • 15:19 - 15:22
    (audience) Woo! Woo woo woo.
    (applauding)
  • 15:26 - 15:28
    So you can go and create
  • 15:28 - 15:30
    all of your items, use tools,
  • 15:30 - 15:33
    and I plan on adding
    more tools in the future.
  • 15:34 - 15:36
    All of the complexities are hidden.
  • 15:36 - 15:37
    At the moment this is live
  • 15:37 - 15:40
    on this wbstat.com domain name.
  • 15:41 - 15:43
    But you need an invitation code from me.
  • 15:43 - 15:45
    If you want one to try one out
    during WikidataCon,
  • 15:45 - 15:48
    come and talk to me,
    and I will give you one.
  • 15:48 - 15:51
    It's full of bugs at the moment,
    and stuff so don't rely on it.
  • 15:53 - 15:54
    This is quick statements working,
  • 15:54 - 15:56
    and then on the Saturday
    of WikidataCon
  • 15:56 - 15:58
    I'll delete all of the data,
  • 15:58 - 16:01
    and then we'll be using this
    for the Wikibase workshops
  • 16:01 - 16:03
    on Sunday if any of you are attending.
  • 16:04 - 16:06
    And then it will get a real test,
  • 16:06 - 16:08
    and so then you can see
    the two edits have happened.
  • 16:08 - 16:10
    I'm so glad I didn't do this
    as live demo,
  • 16:10 - 16:13
    and then you go to the query service.
  • 16:13 - 16:16
    You type in the query
    that shows you all of the triples.
  • 16:18 - 16:20
    Even in the recording, you do it wrong.
    (laughing)
  • 16:20 - 16:22
    And then you have all your triples.
  • 16:22 - 16:24
    (audiences cheers and applause)
  • 16:37 - 16:38
    Alright.
  • 16:42 - 16:44
    So, Happy Birthday Wikidata!
  • 16:45 - 16:47
    I started on this last year,
  • 16:47 - 16:49
    actually for the Wiki site meeting
  • 16:49 - 16:51
    which was about a year ago, and--
  • 16:52 - 16:55
    got something running
    and got a lot encouragement
  • 16:55 - 16:57
    from Daniel Mietchen
    who's probably watching online.
  • 16:57 - 16:59
    Hi Daniel.
    (laughing)
  • 17:01 - 17:03
    And he's given me all sorts of ideas
  • 17:03 - 17:06
    for improving it,
    and so just in time for this meeting,
  • 17:07 - 17:10
    I've got a new version out
    that does more.
  • 17:10 - 17:13
    So basically what this is
    is a tool to replace
  • 17:13 - 17:17
    in mostly scientific articles
    but any work really
  • 17:17 - 17:20
    where there's an author--
    author name string,
  • 17:20 - 17:23
    replace that with an actual
    author item which is--
  • 17:23 - 17:26
    pulled from Wikidata using
    some various things to match
  • 17:26 - 17:28
    to that properly.
  • 17:28 - 17:32
    So changes are most recently
  • 17:32 - 17:34
    you can log in with your Wikimedia
    user account
  • 17:34 - 17:37
    and do the edits directly
    rather than previously
  • 17:37 - 17:39
    it all just went through quick statements
  • 17:39 - 17:42
    which I've got about a million
    quick statements edits now.
  • 17:42 - 17:43
    laughing)
  • 17:43 - 17:45
    This is a llittle bit past here
  • 17:45 - 17:47
    and bypasses that.
  • 17:48 - 17:50
    Another new thing
    is you can actually go in
  • 17:50 - 17:51
    and look at a work,
  • 17:51 - 17:55
    and update all of the authors
    on that work at once.
  • 17:55 - 17:56
    So there's a match button.
  • 17:56 - 18:00
    You can also rearrange the author list
    if they're out of order or something.
  • 18:02 - 18:03
    There's also---
  • 18:04 - 18:07
    Oh yeah, this is an example
    of what that looks like
  • 18:07 - 18:09
    so when you're matching
    it up with authors it lists...
  • 18:10 - 18:14
    some information about their affliation
    as it is in Wikidata.
  • 18:15 - 18:19
    The other thing that's new
    is some automatic filtering.
  • 18:19 - 18:21
    If you go to the bottom of a page
  • 18:21 - 18:24
    that is a search for an author name,
  • 18:24 - 18:26
    you'll see links to coauthors,
  • 18:26 - 18:28
    links to other--
    to the topics they've written on,
  • 18:28 - 18:29
    links to their journals
  • 18:29 - 18:32
    and so you can filter,
    and narrow down the list
  • 18:32 - 18:34
    of your listed works
    that you're looking at
  • 18:34 - 18:35
    to just those things
  • 18:35 - 18:37
    that have those particular
    features in them.
  • 18:37 - 18:39
    Anyway, that's what's new there.
  • 18:39 - 18:41
    And that's it. Thank you.
  • 18:41 - 18:43
    (cheers and applause)
  • 18:56 - 18:57
    Hi all.
  • 18:57 - 19:00
    I'm also from WMDE
  • 19:00 - 19:02
    and a volunteer,
    but this is volunteer work.
  • 19:04 - 19:06
    It's a tool MachtSinn.
  • 19:06 - 19:10
    A few of them might...
    a few might already seen it,
  • 19:10 - 19:14
    but I improved it greatly
    in the last week.
  • 19:15 - 19:18
    So we have these lexemes nowadays
  • 19:18 - 19:23
    and on these lexemes
    you should add the sense
  • 19:23 - 19:26
    what the word means,
    and all the different meanings
  • 19:26 - 19:28
    a word can have,
  • 19:28 - 19:34
    and we have a lot of lexemes now
    that still are missing senses,
  • 19:34 - 19:38
    that don't have any sense
    and... (laughing)
  • 19:39 - 19:43
    in a lot of cases,
    we also have items
  • 19:44 - 19:48
    about the concept that
    this sense is about,
  • 19:49 - 19:53
    and so I thought we could mind
    the senses,
  • 19:53 - 19:56
    and this is what MatchtSinn does.
  • 19:57 - 20:00
    It shows you for a lexeme
  • 20:00 - 20:03
    and this case the English
    word tune,
  • 20:03 - 20:07
    which is a verb
    and possible meaning.
  • 20:08 - 20:11
    In this case: short instrumental piece,
  • 20:11 - 20:14
    a melody and you're asked
  • 20:14 - 20:17
    is this a meaning for this word,
  • 20:17 - 20:20
    and if you click the blue button
  • 20:20 - 20:22
    it will save it to Wikidata.
  • 20:23 - 20:25
    And if you click the right button,
  • 20:25 - 20:27
    it will throw it away.
  • 20:28 - 20:32
    And you login to--
  • 20:32 - 20:34
    the tool with your Wikidata account.
  • 20:34 - 20:36
    We are OAuth.
  • 20:36 - 20:38
    And a few people have already using it
  • 20:38 - 20:42
    and added 6,000 senses,
  • 20:42 - 20:46
    and there are currently
    about 40,000 senses
  • 20:46 - 20:50
    waiting to be considered,
  • 20:50 - 20:55
    and tested,
    and also for writing this
  • 20:55 - 21:00
    I had to first write some Python tool
  • 21:00 - 21:05
    to modify Lexemes because
    Pi Wiki bot
  • 21:05 - 21:10
    and the other common tools
    don't support that.
  • 21:11 - 21:12
    Yes, thanks.
  • 21:13 - 21:14
    (applause)
  • 21:27 - 21:30
    Hi, Happy Birthday.
    (laughing)
  • 21:30 - 21:31
    Happy Birthday!
  • 21:32 - 21:34
    (audience) Woo!
    (laughing)
  • 21:35 - 21:37
    Are you eating cake
    during my presentation?
  • 21:37 - 21:42
    Okay, what to expect from a Data Scientist
    for [inaudible] dashboard, of course.
  • 21:42 - 21:44
    Okay, so this time--
  • 21:45 - 21:46
    well, there's the end product. (laughing)
  • 21:47 - 21:50
    This time something called
    Wikidata Languages Landscape.
  • 21:50 - 21:53
    So--it's is a dashboard
    as I said
  • 21:53 - 21:55
    so some of the empirical findings
    that you present
  • 21:55 - 21:59
    through the Wikidata statistics
    were already serviced today
  • 21:59 - 22:02
    in Lydia's talks,
    and basically focuses
  • 22:02 - 22:05
    on the structural organization
    of languages in Wikidata,
  • 22:05 - 22:07
    on the similarity of Wikidata languages
  • 22:07 - 22:12
    in respect how they're reused across
    the Wikimedia Foundation projects, right?
  • 22:12 - 22:16
    And it also combines
    some of the external resources
  • 22:16 - 22:20
    with those statistics in order
    to provide for a comprehensive view
  • 22:20 - 22:24
    of how different languages cope
    in this Wikimedia universe.
  • 22:24 - 22:27
    So, there's a link to the dashboard
  • 22:27 - 22:30
    so I was warned not to do this,
    but I will try. (laughing)
  • 22:30 - 22:32
    Sorry.
    (laughing)
  • 22:33 - 22:39
    So depending on the--
    Yes. Yes! It can be done. (laughing)
  • 22:39 - 22:43
    Okay, so I will be even able
    to do a live demo maybe...
  • 22:43 - 22:45
    Okay, come on, come on, come on.
  • 22:45 - 22:48
    It's still computing.
    It's a very complicated service.
  • 22:48 - 22:50
    Yep, here we go.
  • 22:50 - 22:56
    Okay, the first thing
    that you will be able to see.
  • 22:57 - 22:58
    Okay. Yes alright.
  • 22:58 - 22:59
    (audience) Wow...
  • 22:59 - 23:02
    Wow. As I said a Data Scientist,
    so this is not really informative, right?
  • 23:02 - 23:03
    Okay.
  • 23:03 - 23:08
    So here you have all the languages,
    or most of languages in WikiData
  • 23:08 - 23:10
    and we're focusing on
    those languages
  • 23:10 - 23:13
    that were ever used anywhere
    in Wikimedia, okay?
  • 23:13 - 23:16
    So, we're talking about languages
    that actually have labels for things
  • 23:16 - 23:19
    that are mentioned in--
  • 23:19 - 23:22
    across Wikipedia, Wikivoyage
    and other projects, right?
  • 23:22 - 23:26
    So, and this is only
    a subontology of languages like so.
  • 23:26 - 23:32
    This depicts only the instance
    of [inaudible] in [inaudible]
  • 23:32 - 23:34
    So that you can actually use
    probably these tools here
  • 23:34 - 23:36
    to browse this thing.
  • 23:36 - 23:38
    It's not aesthetically pleasing
    but at least it's complete.
  • 23:39 - 23:42
    One of the byproducts
    of this work is--
  • 23:42 - 23:46
    sorry, not this thing,
    but this thing here.
  • 23:46 - 23:48
    So, this is a small visual browser
  • 23:48 - 23:52
    that can help you
    figure out what is wrong
  • 23:52 - 23:54
    with the ontology of languages
    in Wikidata,
  • 23:54 - 23:57
    and if you want to fix something
    it makes it easier for you to find.
  • 23:57 - 23:59
    So, while working on this thing.
  • 23:59 - 24:02
    I figured out that the languages
    ontology's particularly complex,
  • 24:02 - 24:03
    really complicated, okay.
  • 24:03 - 24:06
    And then there's some inconsistency
    there for example.
  • 24:07 - 24:09
    Well at least in my intuitive
    understanding of semantics,
  • 24:09 - 24:12
    you can't be at the same time
    a part of something
  • 24:12 - 24:13
    in a subclass of something.
  • 24:13 - 24:15
    I mean you can,
    and Wikidata is really flexible enough
  • 24:15 - 24:17
    to allow you to do that,
  • 24:17 - 24:19
    but probably some things
    need fixing in that respect,
  • 24:19 - 24:20
    and here for example,
  • 24:20 - 24:22
    you can find the language,
  • 24:22 - 24:23
    say, for example, Serbo-Croation.
  • 24:23 - 24:25
    It used to be my native language
  • 24:25 - 24:28
    before it fell apart
    into Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, etc.
  • 24:28 - 24:30
    Okay, and here you have
    all the relations
  • 24:30 - 24:33
    like P31 part of subclass [inaudible]
    different marks.
  • 24:33 - 24:38
    So, if anything needs to be fixed
    instead of browsing the whole--
  • 24:38 - 24:41
    the whole structure
    of the whole ontology
  • 24:41 - 24:44
    you can go here
    and just make it shorter, right?
  • 24:44 - 24:46
    And then things like plastering
    the language
  • 24:46 - 24:48
    many people like this on Twitter.
  • 24:48 - 24:51
    It actually cost me
    half of my life
  • 24:51 - 24:52
    to produce this thing.
  • 24:52 - 24:54
    Okay, it's huge.
  • 24:54 - 24:55
    So yeah, this is the dashboard
  • 24:55 - 24:58
    to go play
    many interesting things.
  • 24:58 - 25:00
    Thank you very much.
  • 25:00 - 25:02
    (applause)
  • 25:16 - 25:17
    So, this is--
  • 25:18 - 25:21
    This presenation is called
    WikiShape
  • 25:21 - 25:23
    and this is something
    that we have been working
  • 25:23 - 25:25
    in the Shape Expressions community group,
  • 25:26 - 25:30
    and the idea of WikiShape is that
  • 25:30 - 25:33
    we want to have like
    the Wikidata query service
  • 25:33 - 25:36
    which is I think is something
  • 25:36 - 25:39
    that most of you are using
    to do SPARQL queries,
  • 25:39 - 25:41
    but now we want to do
    the same thing
  • 25:41 - 25:43
    but for Shape Expressions.
  • 25:43 - 25:46
    So we wanted an editor
  • 25:46 - 25:50
    which is as easy to do,
    and to work with it
  • 25:50 - 25:53
    as it is with Wikidata query service.
  • 25:53 - 25:56
    That's what we are going to--
  • 25:56 - 25:58
    that's the world of WikiShape
  • 25:58 - 26:01
    so you have Shape Expressions
    editor and validator.
  • 26:01 - 26:03
    You also have syntax highlighting,
  • 26:03 - 26:06
    auto-completion,
    schema visualiztion,
  • 26:06 - 26:07
    and search.
  • 26:07 - 26:09
    So this is just a screen.
  • 26:10 - 26:12
    Well, this is--
    I could click on that
  • 26:12 - 26:14
    but I prefer not to do that.
  • 26:14 - 26:16
    You can have info about schema.
  • 26:16 - 26:19
    You can have sign information
    about the schema.
  • 26:19 - 26:21
    You can visualize the schema.
  • 26:21 - 26:23
    This is--you can autocomplete.
  • 26:24 - 26:26
    For example just start writing work
  • 26:26 - 26:29
    and it finds the schemas for that.
  • 26:29 - 26:33
    Then, you also have the editor
  • 26:33 - 26:35
    and as you can see,
    this is for written work.
  • 26:35 - 26:40
    You can have this editor
    of the schema of the Shape Expression.
  • 26:40 - 26:43
    If you hover with a mouse,
  • 26:43 - 26:49
    it highlights the name of the label
    of the property
  • 26:49 - 26:52
    which is the same
    as the Wikidata Query service
  • 26:52 - 26:55
    so the goal is that
  • 26:55 - 26:56
    now that you have Shape Expressions,
  • 26:56 - 27:00
    the goal is that you are
    using Shape Expressions
  • 27:00 - 27:02
    to validate your data
    to increase the quality
  • 27:02 - 27:06
    of the Wikidata--data...
  • 27:06 - 27:08
    using Shape expressions.
  • 27:08 - 27:12
    And also, you also can visualize
    the schemas.
  • 27:13 - 27:15
    Once you have a schema
    for example for written work,
  • 27:15 - 27:17
    the author or whatever
    you can visualize,
  • 27:17 - 27:18
    and all that.
  • 27:18 - 27:21
    So, that's the goal of WikiShape.
  • 27:21 - 27:23
    (applause)
  • 27:37 - 27:39
    I love Wikidata.
  • 27:39 - 27:42
    I'm very proud of the work I do
    and my friends do on Wikidata,
  • 27:43 - 27:46
    and I know most of you are pleased
    to work on Wikidata as well.
  • 27:47 - 27:49
    It's come to my attention
    over the last couple of days
  • 27:49 - 27:50
    that a couple of you
  • 27:50 - 27:52
    are working on a rival product
    (laughing)
  • 27:52 - 27:55
    and undermining what happens
    on Wikidata.
  • 27:55 - 27:57
    This product is apparently called,
    "Wiki-dah-ta" (enunciates the 'a')
  • 27:57 - 27:59
    (laughing)
  • 27:59 - 28:01
    I've never heard
    of this "Wikidata" before.
  • 28:02 - 28:04
    So, in order to get things correct
  • 28:04 - 28:06
    because some of you are doing it wrong.
    (laughing)
  • 28:06 - 28:09
    If I can find the mouse pointer,
    how do I open this?
  • 28:10 - 28:11
    Here we go.
  • 28:19 - 28:21
    We have here.
    (laughing)
  • 28:21 - 28:22
    (computer) Wikidata.
  • 28:23 - 28:24
    You probably can't hear.
  • 28:24 - 28:26
    That is very, very quiet.
    Let me do that again.
  • 28:26 - 28:28
    - (audience) No the other one.
    - The one next to it.
  • 28:28 - 28:30
    (Andy) Oh yep, I got you.
  • 28:31 - 28:33
    You're not going to hear this anyway.
  • 28:37 - 28:39
    (computer voice) Wiki-day-ta.
    (laughing)
  • 28:39 - 28:42
    So, there it is for the record.
    (applause)
  • 28:42 - 28:45
    But, okay.
  • 28:48 - 28:51
    Joking aside if those of you
    who do have speech impediments
  • 28:51 - 28:53
    would like to make a version
    of your pronunciation,
  • 28:53 - 28:55
    then please feel free.
  • 28:55 - 28:58
    Thank you. (laughing)
    (applause)
  • 29:09 - 29:11
    So, I thought I was--
  • 29:11 - 29:13
    I had the laziest present
    but then Andy beat me to it.
  • 29:13 - 29:15
    (laughing)
  • 29:15 - 29:18
    So, because I literally made this present
    an hour ago.
  • 29:19 - 29:21
    Some of you might know VizQuery
  • 29:21 - 29:25
    which is a tool I made
    to visually query "Wiki-dah-ta,"
  • 29:25 - 29:29
    and now I saw this tweet from Maarten
    just an hour ago
  • 29:29 - 29:31
    saying, "Hey, there's a preview
    of the Commons Query Service"
  • 29:31 - 29:34
    so I thought what would happen
  • 29:34 - 29:36
    if I would just change my SPARQL
    end point,
  • 29:36 - 29:40
    and my tool to the beta
    Commons SPARQL end point,
  • 29:41 - 29:44
    and just add it to my tool,
    of course.
  • 29:44 - 29:46
    Now we need to wait for the wifi.
  • 29:47 - 29:49
    I should have made a video
    but of course,
  • 29:49 - 29:51
    given that I just had an hour,
    here we are.
  • 29:51 - 29:53
    So, for those of you
    who don't know VizQuery,
  • 29:54 - 29:57
    it allows you to do things like say,
    "depicts"
  • 29:57 - 29:59
    and say, it "depicts a cat,"
  • 30:00 - 30:03
    and so what you get
    are all the Wikidata items
  • 30:03 - 30:05
    that depict a cat with pictures.
  • 30:05 - 30:08
    However, what you can do now
    is you go all the way down
  • 30:08 - 30:10
    there's a link saying
  • 30:10 - 30:13
    use the Wikimedia Commons SPARQL
    endpoint experimental.
  • 30:13 - 30:17
    And now when I say "depicts a cat,"
  • 30:20 - 30:21
    you will actually get
  • 30:23 - 30:25
    - Commons images of cats.
    - (audience) Woo!
  • 30:25 - 30:27
    (applause)
  • 30:31 - 30:36
    So, let's say you want a cat
    that actually shows its whiskers.
  • 30:37 - 30:39
    Now we're going to get...
  • 30:39 - 30:40
    That's it.
  • 30:41 - 30:43
    So, well. Thank you.
  • 30:43 - 30:44
    (laughing)
    (applause)
  • 30:52 - 30:54
    An hour ago well--
    (snickers)
  • 30:54 - 30:55
    That was ten minutes ago.
    (laughing)
  • 30:56 - 31:01
    So, sometime ago I did this tour,
    The Wikimedia hackathon in Prague
  • 31:01 - 31:02
    called inteGraality
  • 31:02 - 31:04
    making dashboards
    of property coverage,
  • 31:04 - 31:08
    and I introduced to you
    the service pack update 2019.
  • 31:08 - 31:09
    (laughing)
  • 31:09 - 31:12
    So this is InteGraality,
    so you haven't seen it yet.
  • 31:12 - 31:15
    It makes things like this--
    ah it's cute--
  • 31:15 - 31:18
    or paintings
    and their columns of properties
  • 31:18 - 31:21
    and lines or different groupings.
  • 31:22 - 31:25
    So, how to slice and dice the data,
  • 31:25 - 31:28
    and I bring you a couple of improvements
  • 31:28 - 31:31
    that are going to be live-demoed.
  • 31:32 - 31:35
    So some people wanted
    to be able to query for qualifiers
  • 31:35 - 31:37
    because some properties
    are not top level.
  • 31:37 - 31:38
    So if we do this...
  • 31:39 - 31:41
    (laughing)
  • 31:41 - 31:42
    and...
  • 31:42 - 31:45
    also some people wanted to display images,
  • 31:45 - 31:47
    which is I guess is not
    the greatest display.
  • 31:48 - 31:49
    Alright. Loading.
  • 31:49 - 31:51
    It's supposed to be fast.
  • 31:51 - 31:53
    Supposed to be fast (laughs)
  • 31:53 - 31:55
    I know it works
    because I already did it.
  • 31:56 - 31:57
    Yes, updated page.
  • 31:58 - 31:59
    Yep and that works.
  • 31:59 - 32:02
    Now the street number.
    That worked. (applause)
  • 32:04 - 32:06
    Pictures, maybe
    you're going to make it.
  • 32:08 - 32:10
    Ah. Nah.
  • 32:10 - 32:12
    Well, everything [inaudible].
    (laughing)
  • 32:13 - 32:14
    really works.
    (laughing)
  • 32:15 - 32:16
    Yep. Yep. That worked.
  • 32:17 - 32:20
    Yeah, also works with images.
    (audience) Woo!
  • 32:20 - 32:21
    (applause)
  • 32:21 - 32:24
    So there were two picture requests
    but they were not the worst
  • 32:24 - 32:25
    and this one was literally done--
  • 32:25 - 32:27
    Oh what could be that link here?
  • 32:27 - 32:28
    I wonder.
  • 32:28 - 32:31
    Okay. Not this one is going
    to be too big.
  • 32:32 - 32:35
    Let's go for yeah--
    this is going to be fine.
  • 32:36 - 32:38
    Yeah, the reason why I spend
    my entire time
  • 32:38 - 32:41
    at the conference doing this
    is because I spend the last few weeks
  • 32:41 - 32:43
    writing tests for all the code
    that I wrote in Prague,
  • 32:43 - 32:46
    and it's like--
    Oh, so what could these links be?
  • 32:49 - 32:51
    Yeah, these are the items
    that have the property,
  • 32:51 - 32:52
    and if you go the other one
  • 32:52 - 32:54
    that are the items
    that don't have the property,
  • 32:54 - 32:56
    so you can actually make this--
  • 32:57 - 32:58
    dashboard completely blue,
  • 32:58 - 33:00
    if you spend enough time.
  • 33:00 - 33:01
    (laughing)
  • 33:01 - 33:04
    Yeah. That's the service pack update.
    (applause)
  • 33:19 - 33:21
    Oh, we're at the end of the slides.
  • 33:21 - 33:23
    Now we're taking the people
    who didn't give me slides.
  • 33:23 - 33:25
    (laughing)
  • 33:30 - 33:31
    Alright.
  • 33:31 - 33:33
    Who would that be?
  • 33:33 - 33:34
    I know one.
    (laughing)
  • 33:34 - 33:35
    Are there other people?
  • 33:35 - 33:38
    (presenter) I added something
    at the back--
  • 33:38 - 33:40
    Uh huh. Two. okay.
  • 33:40 - 33:42
    Alright. Amir, you go.
  • 33:44 - 33:47
    Hello. Sorry for a late minute
    presentation.
  • 33:47 - 33:49
    One reason is that
    the dashboard was broken
  • 33:49 - 33:51
    but we were able to fix it.
  • 33:51 - 33:54
    So a lot of us use Wikidata,
  • 33:54 - 33:56
    and you see sometimes
    it's a little bit slow
  • 33:56 - 33:58
    when you want to load a page
  • 33:58 - 34:01
    especially when the item
    is very, very big.
  • 34:01 - 34:03
    So, in the last month--
  • 34:03 - 34:05
    several people
    at Wikimedia Deutschland
  • 34:06 - 34:09
    like Rosalie, Jakob and me
    started working on it,
  • 34:09 - 34:11
    and improved the performance of Wikidata.
  • 34:12 - 34:14
    So now we have something to show
    it to you.
  • 34:14 - 34:20
    So I will go to www.wiki [inaudible]
  • 34:20 - 34:24
    Where is the slash--German keyboard...
    (laughing)
  • 34:26 - 34:27
    Ah Shift + 7.
  • 34:30 - 34:32
    Ah yeah.
  • 34:33 - 34:34
    And...
  • 34:36 - 34:37
    you go to--
  • 34:37 - 34:39
    so this is called a--
  • 34:43 - 34:44
    speed index.
  • 34:44 - 34:47
    This is a speed index
    of item of Berlin,
  • 34:47 - 34:49
    and you see in the past 40 months
  • 34:49 - 34:50
    it went from 90---
  • 34:50 - 34:55
    which is defined as--
    let me read it out loud.
  • 34:55 - 34:58
    The speed index is the average time
    of a visible part
  • 34:58 - 35:00
    of a page or display.
  • 35:00 - 35:02
    It's express in miliseconds
  • 35:02 - 35:04
    and depends on the site of--
  • 35:04 - 35:06
    So it used to be around
  • 35:06 - 35:07
    1 second for item of Berlin.
  • 35:07 - 35:10
    Now it's around 800 milliseconds,
  • 35:10 - 35:12
    and this happens not just
    on item of Berlin,
  • 35:12 - 35:17
    but all items and not just on all items--
    plus all images and comments.
  • 35:17 - 35:18
    All of them got better
  • 35:18 - 35:20
    for 200 miliseconds.
  • 35:21 - 35:22
    (whistles)
    (auidence) Woo hoo!
  • 35:22 - 35:23
    (applause)
  • 35:39 - 35:40
    Hi everyone.
  • 35:42 - 35:46
    So you may remember
    from a previous presentation the Hub,
  • 35:46 - 35:51
    which is a tool to browse the web
    with URLs
  • 35:51 - 35:53
    going through Wikidata
    as the hub.
  • 35:53 - 35:57
    So you could do things like
    going from [inaudible] identifier
  • 35:57 - 36:00
    to some other identifier.
  • 36:00 - 36:04
    I don't remember what P9,
    1,9,3,8 is... (laughing)
  • 36:04 - 36:06
    but, yeah... Gutenberg. (laughs)
  • 36:06 - 36:08
    So... (laughing)
  • 36:08 - 36:11
    So yeah if you know
    those identifiers,
  • 36:11 - 36:13
    you can go from somewhere
    to somewhere else,
  • 36:13 - 36:15
    and, well, do different things.
  • 36:15 - 36:17
    Go from like can resolve...
  • 36:18 - 36:21
    Twitter username on Wikidata
  • 36:21 - 36:24
    and get redirected to the closest
    to Wikipedia article.
  • 36:24 - 36:26
    But not that--
  • 36:26 - 36:29
    not that many people use
    URLs to browse the web
  • 36:29 - 36:31
    so I thought if people don't
    come to the tools
  • 36:31 - 36:33
    the tools come to them,
  • 36:33 - 36:36
    and so I did a little script,
  • 36:36 - 36:39
    and that you will find there at--
  • 36:41 - 36:43
    da da dum dum
  • 36:43 - 36:48
    This on meta
    which basically takes the identifiers...
  • 36:49 - 36:51
    from the Hub
  • 36:52 - 36:54
    to bring them
    to your Wikipedia article.
  • 36:54 - 36:56
    So, if you add the gadgets
  • 36:56 - 36:59
    you will have a page
    that will,
  • 36:59 - 37:02
    instead of having just those few
    things on the side bar,
  • 37:03 - 37:05
    because it's not enough
    to browse the web.
  • 37:06 - 37:10
    You will have a collection
    of... (laughing)
  • 37:10 - 37:12
    additional links (laughs)
  • 37:12 - 37:17
    to all over the web,
    and so here you will find, for example--
  • 37:17 - 37:18
    (grunts)
  • 37:18 - 37:20
    So this is the page for Berlin
  • 37:20 - 37:22
    and you will have, for example,
  • 37:22 - 37:24
    Berlin on an open street map,
  • 37:24 - 37:27
    Berlin on Quora,
  • 37:27 - 37:32
    Berlin on Swedish Anbytarforum.
    (laughing)
  • 37:33 - 37:37
    Anything and so all those
    convenience links
  • 37:37 - 37:40
    added to every page
    that can be resolved
  • 37:40 - 37:42
    to a Wikidata identifier.
  • 37:42 - 37:43
    Thank you.
  • 37:43 - 37:45
    (applause)
  • 37:50 - 37:54
    So I didn't understand
    at the beginning quite much
  • 37:54 - 37:56
    the format of this thing.
    (laughing)
  • 37:56 - 37:59
    So I just smuggled inside
  • 38:01 - 38:04
    And I will try to improvise a lot.
  • 38:09 - 38:10
    So...
  • 38:18 - 38:19
    No.
  • 38:22 - 38:23
    (audience) It's loading.
  • 38:23 - 38:24
    It's loading? Okay.
  • 38:24 - 38:26
    So... oh yeah it's maybe only a bit slow.
  • 38:26 - 38:32
    So, I mean there is a lot of data
    in Wikipedia...
  • 38:33 - 38:35
    so a lot of text which contains
  • 38:35 - 38:38
    in fact information
    that you could add to Wikidata,
  • 38:38 - 38:41
    but it's sometimes difficult to find,
  • 38:41 - 38:46
    or difficult to import
    so what we did is
  • 38:46 - 38:51
    we used the latest machine
    learning algorithm
  • 38:51 - 38:54
    to given a class, for example,
  • 38:54 - 38:55
    newspapers,
  • 38:55 - 38:58
    check which are the newspapers--
  • 38:58 - 39:01
    sorry the most used properties
    from newspapers
  • 39:01 - 39:03
    like the owner, the publication date,
  • 39:03 - 39:04
    the language,
  • 39:04 - 39:06
    and we are going to the corresponding--
  • 39:06 - 39:08
    if the statement is missing
  • 39:08 - 39:12
    in the Wikidata item,
  • 39:12 - 39:14
    we are going to the Wikipedia page
  • 39:14 - 39:19
    and we're searching automatically
    for this missing statement,
  • 39:19 - 39:22
    and we are proposing to the user
    a new fact.
  • 39:22 - 39:24
    So the user has just to say
    yes or no
  • 39:24 - 39:28
    to this new fact,
    and import it to WIkidata.
  • 39:28 - 39:31
    So, unfortunately,
    this web page is too big
  • 39:32 - 39:35
    to load or the internet connection
    is too slow.
  • 39:35 - 39:40
    So I'm sorry for that
    but we will make a tweet soon,
  • 39:40 - 39:42
    and launch this tool,
  • 39:42 - 39:46
    and I think it would be a very good tool
    to very quickly add
  • 39:46 - 39:48
    a lot of statements in WIkidata
    about entities
  • 39:49 - 39:51
    that you are not even aware of.
  • 39:51 - 39:53
    Okay. Thank you very much.
    I'm sorry for...
  • 39:53 - 39:55
    (applause)
  • 40:00 - 40:02
    How do I get back to the page?
  • 40:04 - 40:08
    Yes. So one thing that I did
    earlier this year to--
  • 40:08 - 40:12
    and it's called the Revamp
    of Wiki Loves Monuments in Brazil
  • 40:12 - 40:14
    which was the most successful
    Wiki Loves Monuments
  • 40:14 - 40:17
    that's happened in Brazil
    [inaudible]
  • 40:17 - 40:19
    is create this little box here.
  • 40:19 - 40:21
    So this is pulling information
    from Wikidata.
  • 40:21 - 40:23
    It's replacing the old style
    monument IDs
  • 40:23 - 40:26
    on Commons which is [inaudible].
  • 40:27 - 40:30
    So it pulls everything from Wikidata,
    multilingual of course.
  • 40:30 - 40:33
    You need to define the Q id
    in this case,
  • 40:33 - 40:36
    but one thing that changed today,
    thank you very much
  • 40:36 - 40:39
    to the Structured Data on Commons team,
  • 40:39 - 40:40
    is that they're been able
    to Lua access
  • 40:40 - 40:42
    to Structured Data on Commons.
  • 40:42 - 40:43
    (audience) Yeah!
    (applause)
  • 40:43 - 40:45
    It's fantastic.
  • 40:47 - 40:49
    So now what you can do
    is you can say,
  • 40:49 - 40:52
    this picture of telescopes--
    sorry I like telescopes--
  • 40:52 - 40:56
    and has Mark II Telescope
    and Lovell Telescope in the U.K.,
  • 40:56 - 40:58
    and if you go to the file information,
  • 40:59 - 41:01
    and edit the page,
  • 41:02 - 41:05
    you will see that that--
  • 41:05 - 41:08
    sorry you probably can't see it so easily.
  • 41:09 - 41:12
    You just need to do Monument ID/SDC
  • 41:13 - 41:15
    and you get that information
    automatically
  • 41:15 - 41:17
    through the Structured Data on Commons.
  • 41:17 - 41:18
    I think this is the first template
  • 41:18 - 41:20
    that I can actually do this so--
  • 41:20 - 41:23
    and because it's only
    become available today.
  • 41:23 - 41:25
    So thank you very much
    to Structured Data on Commons.
  • 41:25 - 41:27
    (applause)
  • 41:34 - 41:38
    Do we have anyone else
    who would like to present something?
  • 41:40 - 41:44
    If not, then thank you so much
    just for awesome presents.
  • 41:44 - 41:47
    Thank you so much for putting
    all the time in to them.
  • 41:47 - 41:49
    They were really great.
  • 41:49 - 41:51
    (applause)
