About[edit]
This page belongs to a talk given as part of the Wikipedia Science Conference in London.
Title[edit]
Wikimedia and scholarly communication
Abstract[edit]
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.
In the spirit of openness, the talk is editable and being developed in public at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Daniel_Mietchen/Talks/Wikipedia_Science_Conference_2015, from where it will also be held. Feedback of any kind - e.g. suggestions, questions, or reports of past interactions with Wikimedia - is most welcome. 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 and Open Access[edit]
- 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 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.
- highlights differences to typical Open-access policies:
- The actual policy
- FAQ on the policy
- Licensing is key throughout

Reusing[edit]
Reusing journal materials in wiki[edit]
Open Access Media Importer[edit]
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:
- Expansion to full-text import
- deeplinking
- Wikipedia Zero
- Wikisource is included
Reusing wiki materials in journal[edit]
- "image from Wikipedia"
- "image from Wikimedia" (Commons)
- "image source: Wikipedia"
- "image source: Wikimedia" (Commons)
- Springer's misappropriation of Wikimedia content "the tip of the iceberg"
Translations[edit]
Curating via Wikimedia[edit]

Role of repositories[edit]
- Interoperability
- is key to reuse
- requires standardization
JATS[edit]
- 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
