WikiCite 2017 was a 3-day conference, summit and hack day hosted in Vienna, Austria, on May 23-25, 2017. It expands efforts started with WikiCite 2016 to design a central bibliographic repository, as well as tools and strategies to improve information quality and verifiability in Wikimedia projects. Its goal is to bring together Wikimedia contributors, data modelers, information and library science experts, software engineers, designers and academic researchers who have experience working with Wikipedia's citations and bibliographic data.

represented on Wikidata as Q19845625 - https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19845625

https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9773-4008

Collaboration: Scripps Institute, UBC, U Maryland (NIH Grant)

CIVIC: Clinical Interpretations of Variants in Cancer, closely related to GeneWiki. https://civic.genome.wustl.edu/home

System engineer and bio-curators working hand in hand.

A bunch of bots (managed as Jenkins tasks) to build and integrate gene data (User:ProteinBoxBot)

Uses http://github.com/SuLab/WikidataIntegrator (Python) for adding statements. Concept disambiguation by using property filters

Apps outside of WD:

- www.wikigenomes.org for visualization

- http://apps.cytoscape.org

- Wikipedia & Wikidata Tools (Google sheets app) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wikipedia-and-wikidata-to/aiilcelhmpllcgkhhpifagfehbddkdfp?utm_source=permalink

- WikiDataQueryServiceR: library for R. Also mining SPARQL queries from example pages: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/WikidataQueryServiceR/index.html)

Defined workflow (gameplan) on the example of Wikipathways (Reactome data modeled in WD)

- www.wikipathways.org license CC0

- www.reactome.org license CC-BY 3.0. Pathways include citations

Comprehensive data model for describing pathways (path interactions)

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Template:Bibliographical_properties

- cites, described in, stated in, disputed in

Developed citation tools:

- SourceMD

- PMIDTool

Both of these should be improved to disambiguate authors. They don't add affiliations (so presumably use the Author Names prop, not Author).

Citation corpora (you can get them using SPARQL queries listed on the SPARQL examples page)
