Welcome to Wikidata, UJung!

Wikidata is a free knowledge base that you can edit! It can be read and edited by humans and machines alike and you can go to any item page now and add to this ever-growing database!

Need some help getting started? Here are some pages you can familiarize yourself with:

Introduction – An introduction to the project.
Wikidata tours – Interactive tutorials to show you how Wikidata works.
Community portal – The portal for community members.
User options – including the 'Babel' extension, to set your language preferences.
Contents – The main help page for editing and using the site.
Project chat – Discussions about the project.
Tools – A collection of user-developed tools to allow for easier completion of some tasks.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask on Project chat. If you want to try out editing, you can use the sandbox to try. Once again, welcome, and I hope you quickly feel comfortable here, and become an active editor for Wikidata.

Kamerun-Kautschuk-Compagnie (Q50825054)[edit]

Hi, I've merged Q50825263 into Q50825054, since I suppose the latter was created accidentally. Please correct me, if I'm wrong.

BTW, when you are working on German colonialism, the following - probably incomplete - lists of persons and companies from the 20th Century Press Archives (Q36948990) may be useful. Cheers, Jneubert (talk) 15:51, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Thanks for the merging and the lists UJung (talk) 13:05, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Modelling streets named after colonial figures and events[edit]

Hi! I'm really impressed by your work on German colonial history. I was wondering if you might have data on streets, Plätze, monuments etc named after colonial figures or events, or have thoughts about modelling this in wikidata. I used your Wikidata items related to German colonial empire (Q329618) query to build one that searches for thoroughfares named after any of these hits (it's a little rough - my query-writing skills are not the greatest)... the list is not yet very comprehensive. ISD Bund e.V. and Peng just released a map of mostly street names commemorating colonial legacy https://www.tearthisdown.com which has many more hits. It doesn't help that coverage of German streets is anyway a little patchy. I've manually created a few new entries, but I'm thinking to ask Peng/ISD Bund if they'll open their data. I figured you would likely have thought about this before... :)

Checking back in on this I realise I forgot to sign my original post.. sorry for that --1ucyp (talk) 13:33, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Call for participation in the interview study with Wikidata editors[edit]

Dear UJung,

I hope you are doing good,

I am Kholoud, a researcher at King’s College London, and I work on a project as part of my PhD research that develops a personalized recommendation system to suggest Wikidata items for the editors based on their interests and preferences. I am collaborating on this project with Elena Simperl and Miaojing Shi.

I would love to talk with you to know about your current ways to choose the items you work on in Wikidata and understand the factors that might influence such a decision. Your cooperation will give us valuable insights into building a recommender system that can help improve your editing experience.

Participation is completely voluntary. You have the option to withdraw at any time. Your data will be processed under the terms of UK data protection law (including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018). The information and data that you provide will remain confidential; it will only be stored on the password-protected computer of the researchers. We will use the results anonymized to provide insights into the practices of the editors in item selection processes for editing and publish the results of the study to a research venue. If you decide to take part, we will ask you to sign a consent form, and you will be given a copy of this consent form to keep.

If you’re interested in participating and have 15-20 minutes to chat (I promise to keep the time!), please either contact me at kholoudsaa@gmail.com or kholoud.alghamdi@kcl.ac.uk or use this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdmmFHaiB20nK14wrQJgfrA18PtmdagyeRib3xGtvzkdn3Lgw/viewform?usp=sf_link with your choice of the times that work for you.

I’ll follow up with you to figure out what method is the best way for us to connect.

Please contact me if you have any questions or require more information about this project.

Thank you for considering taking part in this research.

Regards
