Continued development, documentation, and blog posts
End of Sloan grant, but continued development
On December 31, 2019, the Structured Data on Commons project concludes the development work that was funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. In the upcoming months, the Structured Data team at the Wikimedia Foundation will continue work on open tasks: computer-aided tagging, support for more datatypes (including dates and geographical coordinates), search, constraints, and a SPARQL query engine for Wikimedia Commons.
New documentation online
The general information page about Structured Data on Commons has been updated with a general how-to, frequently asked questions, and links to various helpful tools. Feel free to edit and improve this page, and ask questions on the talk page!
More documentation about Structured Data on Commons and GLAM will be published in the upcoming weeks.
Blog posts about GLAM pilot projects
By the time of publishing this edition of This Month in GLAM, three blog posts have been published about GLAM pilot projects for Structured Data on Commons. Hopefully they are helpful and inspiring!
