Callaghan Innovation

Dr Mike Dickison (User:Giantflightlessbirds, contact: mike@rove.wiki) is working as as a Wikipedian in Residence in August 2024 with the Science for Technological Innovation (SfTI) National Science Challenge headquartered in Callaghan Innovation, Wellington (Science for Technological Innovation (Q129525495)) to upload video and images to Commons, improve Wikidata on researchers and publications, cite published research to improve relevant Wikipedia articles, and create new articles as needed.

Resources

[edit]

Goals

[edit]
  1. Checking the SfTI website is backed up in the Internet Archive, and is scraped again when complete. DONE. (The site has been archived 300 times between 2016 and 2024, and will continue to be scraped at least monthly.)
  2. Upload the Innovation Stories video shorts to Wikimedia Commons under an open licence. DONE.
  3. Excerpt parts of the Innovation stories that could be embedded in appropriate Wikipedia articles. 2 of 8 done.
  4. Create a Wikipedia article about SfTI, summarising the origins and main investigators in the Science Challenge, the research themes and projects, and a selected publications list and outcomes, linking back to the (archived) website.
  5. (optionally) Create a WikiCommons category for significant Challenge people, using images supplied to be released under an open licence, with a profile photo assigned to their Wikidata item. DONE from supplied photos, plus some open-licensed images.
  6. (optionally) Create articles about significant SfTI researchers, listing their most significant research publications in Wikidata, linked to them as the authors, with a Scholia publications list.
  7. (optionally) Using the key published papers from each of the 11 Spearhead project areas to improve relevant Wikipedia articles, linking back to the Challenge's Wikipedia article.

Innovation Stories

[edit]
SfTI Innovation Stories, trailer for Connected for Innovation

SfTI created a short documentary and series of video shorts hosted on Vimeo by Frank Productions (Q129887047) that they have released under an open licence.

These videos are now available in Wikimedia Commons for sharing, remixing, and reuse in Wikipedia. Excerpts from them can be used in numerous Wikipedia articles to illustrate concepts like deep learning or mussel aquaculture.

The kaitiaki, the sensor, and the scientist has been selected as Wikimedia Commons Media of the Day for 6 November 2024, and will feature on the main page of Commons for 24 hours.

People

[edit]

(Note: Wikidata generally uses the full name as given in author lists on publications; Wikipedia will use the most-commonly-referred-by name—for example, the one in a university staff listing. The Scholia link shows the number of publications currently in Wikidata and properly linked to that person's Wikidata ID.)
