Subject: [GLAM] feedback request: GLAM ontology and metadata mapping
for Structured Data on Commons
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed"
Hi everyone!
For those interested in (the admittedly a bit nerdy, but important issue
of) ontologies and metadata schemes around GLAM, media files and the
upcomingstructured data on Commons
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data>: there is
currently afirst feedback round
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_
data/Get_involved/Feedback_requests/GLAM_metadata_and_ontologies_mapping>(and
probe of interest) to start working on metadata and ontology mapping on
this topic for Wikimedia Commons.
Why? When we are better able to 'map' the metadata schemes used by GLAMs
to the (newly) structured data on Wikimedia Commons, we hope the upload
and synchronization of files will become a lot smoother.
Pleasecheck the request for feedback page on Commons
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_
data/Get_involved/Feedback_requests/GLAM_metadata_and_ontologies_mapping>,
andleave your comments on the talk page there
Structured_data/Get_involved/Feedback_requests/GLAM_
metadata_and_ontologies_mapping>!
This first feedback round runs until 4 May.
All the best! Sandra
