Wikidata for Digital Humanities
[edit]Joined the Advisory Board for the Mapping the Scottish Reformation project following this feedback from Dr. Chris Langley on the project:
"We’ve received some terrific feedback on the pilot site that Hristo and Stewart (University of Edinburgh Interactive Content Team) built... Now we move onto Stage 3: where we take all that we have learned and apply it to another 45,000 pages of manuscript material to cover all of Scotland. You’ve helped drive this project and Mikki and I are immensely grateful. We’ve been thinking about ways that both recognise all of the help you’ve given us, but that will also allow us to do more with the Wikidata/open data communities. As such, we have decided to expand our Advisory Board so it includes a broader range of technical, as well as historical, expertise. It would be our pleasure if you would consider joining the Advisory Board for Stage 3 of MSR: this would involve attending a handful of meetings over the course of the project (one every six months), getting advance access to demos and tests, and generally being a part of discussions about the project."
