[edit]
  • The resident met with his line manager, Karen Howie, this month to identify areas of improvement to be made the Wikidata Map of Accused Witches in Scotland following a flurry of activity from our student interns earlier this Summer.

The developer, Richard Lawson, has been asked to make improvements in line with our suggestions but we are considering recruiting a student intern to work part-time (January to end of May 0.2FTE) to support us in terms of quality assuring the data and making sure the data and visualisations are consistent and working as expected. Interviews are to take place 30th January 2023 once the 45 applicants are shortlisted.
