About

This page belongs to a talk given as part of the Wikipedia for Health/Safety Research and Data (WHSRD) in Washington, DC.

Title

Wikimedia and scholarly communication

Abstract

There are multiple ways in which Wikimedia platforms interact with scholarly communications. This talk will zoom in to the interface of the two, both on a technical and a community level. It will highlight how content finds its way from scholarly communications into Wikimedia projects and sometimes vice versa, how data, metadata, software, infrastructure and the workflows of people and bots fit into the picture.

A video recording of a similar talk given at CERN some years back is available via https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Daniel_Mietchen/Talks/CERN_2012 .

Wikimedia about publishing

Wikimedia and Open Access

Overview
Wikipedia article: Open access
- Exists in multiple languages
- Associated Wikidata item
Multiple Wikimedia entities have signed the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities
Wikipedia:WikiProject Open Access
- Open Access Signalling project
Open-access policy
- Blog post announcing the policy
- Signpost article about the policy
  - highlights differences to typical Open-access policies:
    - It covers not just publications, but associated data, software and multimedia;
    - It stresses the importance of open licensing, which facilitates and broadens the scope of reuse;
    - It is itself available under an open license, so it can easily be adapted (e.g. translated);
    - It avoids embargo periods (which most other policies allow for), and instead allows for limited exceptions;
    - The exceptions are to be documented in public, which helps to collect data on the necessity for exceptions and can inform later refinements of the policy.
- The actual policy
- FAQ on the policy
Licensing is key throughout

Overview		Commentary

Publishing beyond papers

Completely natural on Wikimedia platforms
- e.g. WMF Grants and grant schemes by various chapters
- example project: Open Access Media Importer
Completely unnatural for academics
New journal to cover research from all steps of the research cycle
RIO Journal

Reusing

Reusing journal materials in wiki

Open Access Media Importer

An example of open science - from the grant proposal to all outputs.

commons:User:Open Access Media Importer Bot (OAMI)
- imports audio and video files from openly licensed articles in PubMed Central (PMC)
Stats:
- GLAMorous OAMI
- BaGLAMa
Expansion to full-text import
- deeplinking
- Wikipedia Zero
  - Wikisource is included

Role of repositories

Interoperability
- is key to reuse
- requires standardization

JATS

JATS is the de-facto standard for exchanging journal article content in a machine-readable fashion
- used for articles ingested into PubMed Central
- SciELO content is available in JATS, soon in PMC
- Optical Society of America, Copernicus, BioMed Central, Nature Publishing Group and others moved to JATS, even though not all of their content is going to PMC
- NASA and other US Federal Agencies are planning to build their public access policies around PMC
Problem: Inconsistent XML as a Barrier to Reuse of Open Access Content
- JATS4R is trying to address this
- Improving the reusability of JATS
Now also with data citation

Long-term vision

Sharing research with the world as soon as it is recorded, in a way that is integrated with research workflows rather than added on top of them (cf. Geoffrey Bilder's talk). Now imagine this with open licenses and public version histories as the default setting. Video also available on Vimeo.
