About

This page is part of a talk at 16:45 CEST on June 17 as part of the Barriers and Impact Session at the CERN Workshop on Innovations in Scholarly Communication (OAI9) in Geneva from June 17th-19th 2015.

Title

Integrating Open Access and Wikimedia

Abstract

Open Access and Wikimedia have a lot in common in terms of their overall goals, the technical and legal approaches and the communities involved. Many interactions thus exist between the two, but they have rarely been systematic. In this talk, I will outline a range of approaches to making these interactions more systematic, e.g. by integrating OA elements into Wikimedia workflows or policies or vice versa.

interactive visualization of population data in Wikipedia articles, e.g. hu:Carcelén
- in the long run, more and more data in Wikipedia articles (e.g. infoboxes, tables, graphics) will be pulled from Wikidata
Monitoring the use of identifiers across Wikimedia projects
- demo for DOIs
- Wiki bot-maintained list of Wikidata items with DOIs
More wiki bots
Wikimedia as part of my open access pledge
- Another way to handle issues with collaborators is to just upload some additional research materials that are not part of paywalled publications (example).
- Yes, such pledges can only have minimal impact. They have to be complemented with evidence of the benefits of openness.

Wikimedia and Open Access

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 (also on Wikisource and on Wikidata)
- Open Access Signalling project
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.
- The actual policy
- FAQ on the policy
Licensing is key throughout

Reusing

Reusing journal materials in wiki

Open Access Media Importer

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:
- GLAMorous OAMI
- BaGLAMa
Expansion to full-text import
- deeplinking
- Wikipedia Zero
  - Wikisource is included

Curating via Wikimedia

Role of repositories

Interoperability
- is key to reuse
- requires standardization

JATS

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

Policy

Open Access policy of the Wikimedia Foundation with several distinct features
- covers not just publications, but associated data, software and multimedia;
- stresses the importance of open licensing, which facilitates and broadens the scope of reuse;
- is itself available under an open license, so it can easily be adapted (e.g. translated);
- avoids embargo periods (which most other policies allow for), and instead allows for limited exceptions;
- 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.

EU funding proposal drafted in the open, complete with Zenodo DOI and rejection letter

Barriers

Technical issues of Open Access need more attention
- Permanent archiving of interactive media
  - I've stopped putting interactive multimedia into PDF for that reason
- #JATS standardization

Impact

Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine/Popular pages
Wikipedia:Ebola translation task force
- in the press
Roshan Karn from Open Access Nepal (just shown presenting the OA Button in Nepal) collaborates with Wikimedia Nepal and other Wikimedians on making health-related information available for disaster-struck people in Nepal in their local languages. They are hampered by good materials not being openly licensed, e.g. to allow translations.
