[07:40:47] [telegram] I am hoping Wikidocumentaries would become a good way of interfacing with several linked repositories to validate import of detailed data for any topic. When the building blocks are in place it should be easy to create varying games or tools to do this (re @salgo60: FYI Wikidocumentaries can maybe be an bridge with Europeana and maybe also help them as they are also slowly moving direction entities [07:40:47] [telegram] we now have > 150 000 WIkidata objects connected to the Europeana Entity model as agents = person etc.... [07:40:49] [telegram] see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T240290 [07:40:50] [telegram] I see a great potential Europeana <-> Wikidata [07:40:51] [telegram] * using Wikidata as a way of activating users connecting museums/archives persons to a WD object [07:40:53] [telegram] * using WIkidata to find the relation between an object with a person identified as xxxx in the archive what Europeana Entity its the same as .... [07:40:54] [telegram] ** example agent/base/67775 = Helene Schjerfbeck that is same as Athenaeum person ID 1759 [07:40:55] [telegram] *** http://data.europeana.eu/agent/base/67775 [07:40:59] [telegram] *** http://www.the-athenaeum.org/people/detail.php?id=1759 [07:40:59] [telegram] *** https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q236985 [07:41:03] [telegram] With agent/base/67775 we have one painting but if we do text search https://www.europeana.eu/portal/en/search?q=Helene%20Schjerfbeck&view=grid then we get 25 pictures i.e. they have a big metadatadebt not matching objects to entities for creator etc... [07:41:06] [telegram] we can then help Europeana with WIkidata to connect people to the correct entity.... and Wikidocumentary will get better links to Europeana.... [07:41:12] [telegram] Next step for Europeana is that they start looking into machine learning and then they need to also start adding semantics what a picture depicts same as wikicommons does with SDC..... best approach I guess would be if Europeana had the same approach as Wikicommons with "ontology reuse" and use Wikidata for what a picture depicts... with Europeana agents it looks like they have used > 150 000 items [07:41:15] [telegram] Example Europeana Entites same as Finnish properties https://w.wiki/EXc)
