Wikidata for research
The Wikidata for research proposal currently being drafted (see previous report) is nearing completion, with submission to the EU due on January 14. It is covered in more detail in this month's Special story.
Open Access Media Importer
Codebase rewritten
The code base for the Open Access Media Importer has been largely rewritten. The code in the new branch has been tested throughout December, which resulted in almost 500 uploads, of which an estimated 200 came in through old bug report threads that have been addressed during the rewrite.
Uploads this month: Dancing, wolves hunting bisons, and beach volleyball
The following represents a selection of the files that have been uploaded this month, bringing the total to over 18,500. If you can think of wiki pages where these files (or other files from the same source articles) could be useful, please put them in there or let us know.
In brief
- JATS-Con submissions accepted: As reported last month, the JATS 4 Reuse workgroup and the Force11 Data Citation Implementation Group had submitted abstracts to JATS-Con, which will take place on April 21-22, 2015. Both abstracts have since been accepted for presentation.
