Re: [Wikidata] Edit history-revisions

Hi Elisavet,

You can identify reverts using the sha1 checksum of revisions You can use
the mwreverts library[0] to do that in the dump. Editquality[1] repository
has such a use case for detecting reverts. You will not be able to detect
partial reverts but it will detect identity reverts which form majority of
the reverts.

tracks can be proposed until Sep 14th, please contact 
dbpedia-eve...@infai.org .



 *

   timbr SQL Knowledge Graph: Learn how to model, map and query
   ontologies in timbr and then model an ontology of GDELT, map it to
   the GDELT database, and answer a number of questions that currently
   are quite impossible to get from the BigQuery GDELT database. Cash
   prizes planned. https://www.timbr.ai/

 *

   GNOSS Knowledge Graph Builder: Give meaning to your organisation’s
   documents and data with a Knowledge Graph.
   https://www.gnoss.com/en/products/semantic-framework

 *

   ImageSnippets: Labeling images with semantic descriptions. Use
   DBpedia spotlight and an entity matching lookup to select DBpedia
   terms to describe images. Then explore the resulting dataset through
   searches over inference graphs and explore the ImageSnippets dataset
   through our SPARQL endpoint. Prizes planned.
   http://www.imagesnippets.com

 *

   Diffbot: Build Your Own Knowledge Graph! Use the Natural Language
   API to extract triples from natural language text and expand these
   triples with data from the Diffbot Knowledge Graph (10+ billion
   entities, 1+ trillion facts). Check out the demo
   http://demo.nl.diffbot.com/. All participants will receive access to
   the Diffbot KG and tools for (non-commercial) research for one year
   ($10,000 value).


# Dutch National Knowledge Graph Track

Following the DBpedia FlexiFusion approach, we are currently 
flexi-fusing a huge, dbpedia-style knowledge graph that will connect 
many Linked Data sources and data silos relevant to the country of the 
Netherlands. We hope that this will eventually crystallize a 
well-connected sub-community linked open data (LOD) cloud in the same 
manner as DBpedia crystallized the original LOD cloud with some 
improvements (you could call it LOD Mark II). Data and hackathon details 
will be announced on 21st of September.



# Improve DBpedia Track

A community track, where everybody can participate and contribute in 
improving existing DBpedia components, in particular the extraction 
framework, the mappings, the ontology, data quality test cases, new 
extractors, links and other extensions. Best individual contributions 
will be acknowledged on the DBpedia website by anointing the WebID/Foaf 
profile.


(chaired by Milan Dojchinovski and Marvin Hofer from the DBpedia 
Association & InfAI and the DBpedia Hacking Committee)



# DBpedia Open Innovation Track

(not part of the hackathon, pre-announcement)

For the DBpedia Spring Event 2021, we are planning an Open Innovation 
Track, where DBpedians can showcase their applications. This endeavour 
will not be part of the hackathon as we are looking for significant 
showcases with development effort of months & years built on the core 
infrastructure of DBpedia such as the SPARQL endpoint, the data, lookup, 
spotlight, DBpedia Live, etc. Details will be an

[Wikidata] Evolution of the community communications roles for Wikidata

[Léa Lacroix]

Hello all,

For the past four years, I’ve been working in the software department at
Wikimedia Germany, taking care of the communication between the Wikidata
development team  and the
community, announcing new features, collecting bug reports and feature
requests from you. On top of that, I’ve been coordinating various projects,
bringing the WikidataCon

to
life, coordinating the Wikidata decentralized birthday
, creating a
prototype for Wikidata Train the Trainers
, and taking
care of various onsite or online workshops, meetups and other events.

Over the past years, with the Wikidata community growing, the development
team growing as well, more and more events happening, and the ecosystem of
Wikibase users forming a distinct group with different needs, it became
pretty clear that one person was not enough to keep track of everything and
provide the best support for the Wikidata editors. That’s the reason why,
earlier this year, we had the pleasure to announce the arrival of a new
colleague who you already know from being an active Wikidata editor, Mohammed
Sadat (WMDE) .

We already started a smooth transition of our roles: while Mohammed will
become the main person in charge of community communications for the
Wikidata and Wikibase communities, I will focus more on organizing
Wikidata-related events and supporting community members with their own
events and projects. As you may have noticed, Mohammed already took over
editing the weekly newsletter
, monitoring
the social media, and various announcements for Wikidata and Wikibase. As
for myself, I will not disappear completely from the Wikidata channels: I
will keep supporting Mohammed on community communication, for example with
projects like the Wikidata Bridge
, in which I’ve been
involved since the start.

During this transition phase, we will review and improve our existing
communication processes, and you can for example give feedback on the
experience you had while reporting bugs or feature requests
.
Feel free to reach out to Mohammed if you have any questions regarding
Wikidata’s
development roadmap
.

I’m looking forward to continuing working with you on various projects:
feel free to contact me if you want to discuss Wikidata-related events,
training, online events, or any other ideas you have in mind to gather the
Wikidata community and onboard new editors.

Cheers,
