===Wikidata as Hub===
One way of looking at Wikidata relates it to the ] concept, around for about as long as Misplaced Pages, and realised in dozens of distributed Web institutions. It sees Wikidata as supplying central, encyclopedic coverage of ], and looks ahead to greater support for "federated queries" that draw together information from all parts of the emerging network of websites.
]
Another perspective might be likened to a photographic negative of that one: Wikidata as an already-functioning Web hub. Over half of its properties are identifiers on other websites. These are Wikidata's "external links", to use Misplaced Pages terminology: one type for the DOI of a publication, another for the VIAF page of an author, with thousands more such. Wikidata links out to sites that are not nominally part of the semantic web, effectively drawing them into a larger system. The crosswalk possibilities of the systematic construction of these links was covered in Issue 8.

] speaks of them as kept "minimal, meritable, and directly relevant to the article." Here Wikidata finds more of a function. On viaf.org one can type a VIAF author identifier into the search box, and find the author page. The , these days including Open Street Map, Scholia etc., allows this kind of lookup. The by {{noping|maxlath}} takes a major step further, allowing both lookup and crosswalk to be encoded in a single URL.

===Milestone for mix'n'match===
Around the time in February when Wikidata clicked past item Q50000000, another milestone was reached: the tool uploaded its 1000th dataset. Concisely defined by its author, {{noping|Magnus Manske}}, it works "to match entries in external catalogs to Wikidata". The total number of entries is now well into eight figures, and more are constantly being added: a couple of new catalogs each day is normal.

Since the , mix'n'match has gradually come to play a significant part in adding statements to Wikidata. Particularly in areas with the flavour of ], but datasets can of course be about practically anything. There is a catalog on skyscrapers, and two on spiders.

These days mix'n'match can be used in numerous modes, from the relaxed gamified click through a catalog looking for matches, with prompts, to the fantastically useful and often demanding search across all catalogs. I'll type that again: you can search 1000+ datasets from the simple box at the top right. The drop-down menu top left offers "creation candidates", Magnus's personal favourite. ] for more.

For the Wikidatan, a key point is that these matches, however carried out, add statements to Wikidata if, and naturally only if, there is a Wikidata property associated with the catalog. For everyone, however, the hands-on experience of deciding of what is a good match is an education, in a scholarly area, biographical catalogs being particularly fraught. Underpinning recent rapid progress is an open infrastructure for scraping and uploading.

Congratulations to Magnus, our data ]!

===The 100 Skins of the Onion===
, with its eminently guessable hashtag, is upon us. We should be utterly grateful that in the past 12 months, so much data on which papers cite which other papers has been made open, and that Wikidata is playing its part in hosting it as "cites" statements. At the time of writing, there are 15.3M Wikidata items that can do that.

Pulling back to look at ] papers in the large, though, there is is less reason for celebration. Access in theory does not yet equate to practical access. A puts that issue down to "heterogeneity". A useful euphemism to save us from thinking that the whole concept doesn't fall into the realm of the ].

Some home truths: aggregation is not content management, if it falls short on reusability. The PDF file format is wedded to how humans read documents, not how machines ingest them. The salami-slicer is our friend in the current downloading of open access papers, but for a better metaphor, think about skinning an onion, laboriously, 100 times with diminishing returns. There are of the order of 100 major publisher sites hosting open access papers, and the predominant offer there is still a PDF.
]
From the discoverability angle, Wikidata's bibliographic resources combined with the ] query are superior in principle, by far, to existing keyword searches run over papers. Open access content should be managed into consistent HTML, something that is currently strenuous. The good news, such as it is, would be that much of it is already in ]. The organisational problem of removing further skins from the onion, with sensible prioritisation, is certainly not insuperable. The CORE group (the bloggers in the LSE posting) has some answers, but actually not all that is needed for the ] purposes they highlight. The ], or in other words the onion heart when it has become fiddly beyond patience to skin, does call for a '']''. But the real knack is to do more between the XML and the heart.

===ScienceSource funded===
The Wikimedia Foundation announced full funding of the ] from on May 18. See the .

;A medical canon?
The proposal includes downloading 30,000 open access papers, aiming (roughly speaking) to create a baseline for medical referencing on Misplaced Pages. It leaves open the question of how these are to be chosen.

The basic criteria of ] include a concentration on secondary literature. Attention has to be given to the ] of diseases that receive less current research. The MEDRS guideline supposes that ]s will have to be handled, and the premature exclusion of publications that would be in those marginal positions would reduce the value of the collection. ] misses the point that gate-keeping will be done by an algorithm.

Two well-known but rather different areas where such considerations apply are ]s and ]. There are also a number of potential downloading troubles, and these were mentioned in ]. There is likely to be a gap, even with the guideline, between conditions taken to be necessary but not sufficient, and conditions sufficient but not necessary, for candidate papers to be included. With around 10,000 recognised medical conditions in standard lists, being comprehensive is demanding. With all of these aspects of the task, ScienceSource will seek community help.

;Respecting MEDRS
''Facto Post'' enters its second year, with a Cambridge Blue (OK, Aquamarine) background, a new logo, but no Cambridge blues. On-topic for the ] is a ]. It contains some case studies on how the ] guideline, for the referencing of articles at all related to human health, is applied in typical discussions.

Close to home also, a template, called {{tl|medrs}} for short, is used to express dissatisfaction with particular references. Technology can help with patrolling, and this finds over 450 articles where there is at least one use of the template. Of course the template is merely suggesting there is a possible issue with the reliability of a reference. Deciding the truth of the allegation is another matter.

This maintenance issue is one example of where ScienceSource aims to help. Where the reference is to a scientific paper, its type of algorithm could give a pass/fail opinion on such references. It could assist patrollers of medical articles, therefore, with the templated references and more generally. There may be more to proper referencing than that, indeed: context, quite what the statement supported by the reference expresses, prominence and weight. For that kind of consideration, case studies can help. But an algorithm might help to clear the backlog.

;Plugging the gaps – Wikimania report
Officially it is "bridging the gaps in knowledge", with Wikimania 2018 in ] paying tribute to the southern African concept of '']'' to implement it. Besides face-to-face interactions, Wikimedians do need their power sources.
]
''Facto Post'' interviewed {{noping|Jdforrester}}, who has attended every Wikimania, and now works as Senior Product Manager for the Wikimedia Foundation. His take on tackling the gaps in the Wikimedia movement is that "if we were an army, we could march in a column and close up all the gaps". In his view though, that is a faulty metaphor, and it leads to a completely false misunderstanding of the movement, its diversity and different aspirations, and the nature of the work as "fighting" to be done in the open sector. There are many fronts, and as an ] he feels the gaps experienced both by editors and by users of Wikimedia content are inevitable. He would like to see a greater emphasis on reuse of content, not simply its volume.

If that may not sound like radicalism, the ''Decolonizing the Internet'' conference here organized jointly with can redress the picture. It comes with the claim to be "the first ever conference about centering marginalized knowledge online".

;Neglected diseases
]]]
]

To grasp the nettle, there are ]s, there are ]s and then there are "neglected diseases". Evidently a rare enough disease is likely to be neglected, but ] these days means a disease not rare, but tropical, and most often infectious or parasitic. Rare diseases as a group are dominated, in contrast, by ]s.

A major aspect of neglect is found in tracking ]. ]s are those developed to treat rare diseases (rare enough not to have market-driven research), but there is some overlap in practice with the ]'s , where ], a "neglected public health issue", is on the list.

From an encyclopedic point of view, lack of research also may mean lack of high-quality references: the core medical literature differs from primary research, since it operates by aggregating trials. This bibliographic deficit clearly hinders Misplaced Pages's mission. The ScienceSource project is currently addressing this issue, on Wikidata. Its ] at WD:SSFL is trying to ensure that neglect does not turn into bias in its selection of science papers.

;The science publishing landscape

In an ideal world ... no, bear with your editor for just a minute ... there would be a format for scientific publishing online that was as much a standard as ] are for the content. Likewise cataloguing publications would not be onerous, because part of the process would be to generate uniform ]. Without claiming it could be the mythical ], it might be reasonably be argued that sandwiches can be packaged much alike and have barcodes, whatever the fillings.

The best on offer, to stretch the metaphor, is the ] option, in the form of ]. Where scientific papers are delivered as XML downloads, you get all the ingredients ready to cook. But have to prepare the actual meal of ] yourself. See for a recent pass at heading off XML with HTML, in other words in the native language of the Web.

The argument from ] is a traditional mixture of frictional forces, vested interests, and the classic irony of the . On the other hand, ] actually diminishes with the prolific progress of science publishing. No, it really doesn't scale. Wikimedia as movement can do something in such cases. We know from ], we grok the Web, we have ] in the HTML race, we have Wikidata and ], and we have the chops to act.

;Wikidata imaged

Around 2.7 million Wikidata items have an illustrative image. These files, you might say, are Wikimedia's ], and if the number is large, it is still only 5% or so of items that have one. All such images are taken from Wikimedia Commons, which has 50 million media files. One key issue is how to expand the stock.

Indeed, there is a tool. ] exploits the fact that each Misplaced Pages is differently illustrated, mostly with images from Commons but also with ] images. An item that has sitelinks but no illustrative image can be tested to see if the linked wikis have a suitable one. This works well for a volunteer who wants to add images at a reasonable scale, and a small amount of SPARQL knowledge goes a long way in producing checklists.
]
It should be noted, though, that there are currently 53 Wikidata properties that link to Commons, of which P18 for the basic image is just one. WD-FIST prompts the user to add signatures, plaques, pictures of graves and so on. There are a couple of hundred ]s, mostly of historical figures, and allows you to view all of them. ] and its subcategories provide rich scope for adding more.

And so it is generally. of properties linking to Commons does contain a few that concern video and audio files, and rather more for maps. But it contains gems such as P3451 for "nighttime view". Over 1000 of those on Wikidata, but as for so much else, there could be yet more.

Go on. Today is Wikidata's birthday. An illustrative image is always an acceptable gift, so why not add one? You can follow these easy steps: (i) log in at https://tools.wmflabs.org/widar/, (ii) paste the Petscan ID 6263583 into https://tools.wmflabs.org/fist/wdfist/ and click run, and (iii) just add cake.

;WikiCite issue
GLAM ♥ data — what is a gallery, library, archive or museum without a catalogue? It follows that Wikidata must love librarians. Bibliography supports students and researchers in any topic, but open and machine-readable bibliographic data even more so, outside the silo. Cue the WikiCite initiative, which was meeting in conference this week, in the Bay Area of California.

In fact there is a broad scope: "Open Knowledge Maps via SPARQL" and the "Sum of All Welsh Literature", identification of research outputs, Library.Link Network and Bibframe 2.0, OSCAR and LUCINDA (who they?), OCLC and Scholia, all these co-exist on the agenda. Certainly more ] is coming Wikidata's way. That poses the question about the other direction: is more Wikimedia technology advancing on libraries? Good point.

Wikimedians generally are not aware of the tech background that can be assumed, unless they are close to current training for librarians. A baseline definition is useful here: "], ] and ]". Compare and contrast with ], ] and ]. Translation: scripting for automation, version control, data set matching and wrangling in the large, are on the agenda also for contemporary library work. Certainly there is some possible common ground here. Time to understand rather more about the motivations that operate in the library sector.
