Since you both use SMW, it would be great to develop some way of
directly sharing data between the two wikis. (I'm currently
researching that now for a different project). So far the only

Since you both use SMW, it would be great to develop some way of
directly sharing data between the two wikis. (I'm currently
researching that now for a different project). So far the only
mechanism I have found is via the 'remote query' feature of the
exhibit extension:
http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Exhibit_format

Oh, I also just remembered this, which would be a great way for you to
set up sharing between wikis:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DSMW

Perhaps it will be possible to add something to the regular query
syntax to allow 'remote queries'?

I have to look at the Semantic MediaWiki features for export/import data. I know that there are some RDF options, but I have not tested yet.
 

Talking of data sharing, do you both use the same (standard?) data
model for describing publications? i.e. using the Dublin core
ontology? (Sorry for not going to check that, I figure just ask ;-)


Following the parameters in this link http://www.cs.umd.edu/projects/plus/SHOE/onts/dublin.html , this is the WikiPapers model:
TITLE -> title
CREATOR -> author
SUBJECT -> keywords
DESCRIPTION -> abstract
PUBLISHER -> published in
CONTRIBUTOR -> ?
DATE -> year
TYPE -> type
FORMAT -> ?
IDENTIFIER -> doi, arXiv, PubMed, isbn, issn
SOURCE -> ?
LANGUAGE -> language
RELATION -> ?
COVERAGE -> ?
RIGHTS -> license

format and relation have not been formally defined by Dublin. I'm not sure what info adds 'contributor' to 'creator', 'source' to 'publisher' and 'coverage' to 'abstract/keywords'.
 

Cheers,
Dan.

I've been researching it for a different project, and I've written it
up what I have done so far here:

Setting up the ontology stuff formally is also on my todo list, here
is some preliminary info:

The blog post doesn't show for me.

I think I have never really understood the use of Dublin Core. To me it 
seems that it does not map well with the usual academic references in 
Bibtex, cite journal of Wikipedia, .... You need journal, volume, issue, 
paper for journal papers and editor, booktitle for conference papers.

You can see my (partial?) mapping to Dublin core on:

"Baglama" statistics/metrics/analytics now shinier

Magnus Manske just sent this message to another list and I thought you'd
want to know.  Baglama is a tool to "View counts for pages using Commons
images in certain category trees."  It's especially useful for GLAM
institutions: https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM

Due to popular demand, my "baglama" tool now has charts for all
projects on its main page, and a project chart on the project page,
with the selected month highlighted. The bars are relative to the
maximum monthly view counter in the project. Enjoy.

Re: Wiki-research-l Digest, Vol 71, Issue 2

Hello,
Does the English Wikipedia currently track pageviews?

I'm doing a study looking at the page ratings, and how that is (or isn't) affected by a reader's understanding of the discussion process that went on behind the scenes.  We'd really like to be able to know if the rater saw the talk page before they rated the article.  As secondary goals, we'd like to see if they edited the article and/or talk page, and as a tertiary goal, we'd like to measure how familiar they are with Wikipedia and talk pages in general (e. g. do they even know Talk pages exist, are they a frequent discussant on them, etc.).
If it is possible to get the information about ratings and pageviews (esp. common fields/links between them), can somebody guide me on how to? 
If the data is currently not collected but there is a way to start doing so (i. e. no philosophical objection or significant tech/performance issue b/c of the caching layers), who's the right person to work with for that?

Thanks!

Grace and peace,
Ben
