I am now about half way through the Advocates profiles.
If you look at the Advocate Page [1], all profiles above
"Europe:Netherlands" are now "on the map", or have some structured data
to appear in the query result.
I added just data that was available from the user: pages, and if no
coordinates were available I gecoded the address or just city center.
Please check and correct my possible copy&paste errors on your profile.
I would not mind if some of you would care to structure their user data
by them self. ;)
But Ok, I did not really documented it yet, so I will proceed tomorrow
evening (CET) with the next profiles...
@Cameron: I adjusted the zoom level for the maps according your comment.

Hi Christian,
Thanks for all you are doing, and for updating profiles. I think I might
have caught you mid update, because there are a number of profiles which
seem to be half converted.
For the record, I've reviewed many people's profiles, (typically
correcting English, or trimming to fit within the template formula).
After notifying people of the updates I made, I haven't received any
complaints, and have received many thanks. So I think you are reasonably
safe in helping everyone as you are doing.
One comment on the map.
I notice that the zoom level is set to about a city zoom level. I
suggest it would be better to zoom to a world level, or maybe 1/4 of a
world.
The main readers of this page will be looking for "Who is living near my
conference", and it is easier to recognise a world view rather than a
city view.
Thanks Cameron

OK, I will do this changes now.
You will probably get email notifications of changes to your profiles.
Just revert them, if you don't like the changes.
Cheers,
Christian

Hello,
just to explain this a bit more.
Here [1], I included the Advocate Table, Map and new directory list,
generated from querying the strucutred data. You can see, that the
current Advocate Page messes up the SMW structured data. Because I
configured the model that SMW handles one page containing
[[Category:OSGeo Advocate]] as one OSGeo Advocate entity.
Currently the Advocate Directory [2] includes the data (markup) from
the included User: profiles, that are containing coordinates,
addresses, email, etc..
If it is ok, I will remove the '[[Category:OSGeo Advocate]]' string
from the current Advocate directory page [2]. This will clean the
current mess in the SMW generated lists/tables/maps.
Thanks,
Christian

Hello,
I implemented most of the feedback. Some issues are still open [0],
I will take care of them soon.
To roll the Advocate list out, I need to remove the User page
includes from the current Advocate directory [1], and each
Advocate's User: page needs to be edited, with the following two steps:
1. Include '[[Category:OSGeo Advocate]]' on the User: page
2. Edit the User: page with this [2] Form and enter the according
structured data. (got to the link enter 'User:<your username>' into
the input box and click on 'create or edit'.)
I can do this... but maybe people are sensitive about their own
territory (i.e. their own user: page) in the wiki, so I was unsure
about that?
Next, the User: page includes ({{User:<ussername>}}) on the Advocate
directory [1] need to be removed, and replaced by the new directory,
table and map from SMW query.
See here [3] and here [4] how these directory, table and map look
like on the test wiki (if you look at the markup/source you can see
how the list, table and maps are included.).
Please also provide further feedback, on things like layout and
additional features etc. You can tell me directly, or file an issue
on the github repository [0].
Cheers,
Christian

Thank you for your very good Feedback Cameron and Jorge!
I created your feedback points as issues for the OSGeo Wiki SMW model
repository [1]. So you can track the progress, some of them are a bit
tricky, I think I will need some days. I plan to add the changes
during
the coming weekend into the OSGeo wiki.
Some answers to questions or feedback, I did not implemented
already or
created an issue on github for, are inline below.

I wasn't able to test entering data on the page. (I assume the wiki
hasn't been set up for that).
Yes account creation is disabled, if you want an account for testing I
can set one up and send the credentials of list.
We should be careful about helping people protect their personal
privacy.
Re address, I'd err on not collecting Street address, probably
just City
and Country.
The field is optional. Maybe someone want to give the address of his
work place?
Is it possible to apply address validation to check for spelling
errors?
Interesting, but I don't know any implementation for this problem for
Mediawiki.

And I guess the last update info can be retrieved directly from the
history of the page if needed.
This one is quite tricky, because I have to find out how to trigger an
update of the members data from a users (unrelated) activity on the
wiki. It should be possible dynamically through the API, but I'm not
100% sure yet on how to do it.
Cheers,
Christian
