In der aktuellen Ausgabe von “ABI Technik” ist ein kurzer Text von mir in der Rubrik “ABI Technikfrage” enthalten, den ich vor gut drei Monaten geschrieben habe. Hier der Link zur Bezahlversion: https://doi.org/10.1515/abitech-2018-2013. Parallel veröffentliche ich den Wortlaut (angereichert mit Links und Anmerkungen) hier auf dem Blog unter einer CC0-Lizenz (so wie alle anderen Inhalte auch).
At the 2019 Wikimania conference, Europeana – a Europe-wide digital cultural platform – held several associated events, including the inaugural meeting of national libraries which work directly with Wikidata and its underlying software Wikibase. The event was organized by Liam Wyatt in his professional role as Europeana's Wikipedia liaison. This article was also written in that role and originally published at the Europeana blog.
In his other role as a Wikipedia volunteer he is usually called Wittylama. He is one of the founders of Project GLAM and the original Wikipedian-in-Residence - as a volunteer. Also in this role he was program chairman of Wikimania 2019 –S

Twitter ist als Plattform auch ein digitaler Zeitzeuge der Menschheitsgeschichte geworden. Ein potenzieller Zusammenbruch wirft Fragen zur Archivierung auf.
In Bibliotheken ging man früher ähnlich wie in die Kirche. Heute sind diese Orte der Besinnung verschwunden oder zu lärmenden Bücherhallen geworden. Ein Abschiedsbrief
Schattenbibliotheken wie Sci-Hub sind für viele Wissenschaftler zur ersten Anlaufstelle geworden, um Aufsätze und andere Texte zu beschaffen. Sie sind eine Antwort auf mangelnden Literaturzugang, können die tieferen Probleme des Publikationswesens der Wissenschaft aber nicht lösen, schreibt Dorothea Strecker.
Knowledge-sharing has always been a passion of mine and a wiki was a good tool (at the time) for collecting knowledge from a diverse array of librarians across the world. In 2005, Facebook didn’t exist (to the public at least). Twitter didn’t exist. Google Docs didn’t exist. Google Sites didn’t exist. A whole bunch of other collaboration and CMS-type tools didn’t exist. At the time, a wiki was one of the only free ways to collect knowledge from lots of different people, many of whom the person creating the wiki didn’t know. And it received contributions from thousands of librarians and certain pages were THE place to find information on that topic.
But now, other more stable tools exist for this. Mediawiki software is vulnerable to spam and is not the most stable thing out there. I (and my husband when it’s beyond my capabilities) have spent so much time over the past twelve years troubleshooting the software, reverting spam, and blocking spammers. And, all the while, usage of the wiki has declined and many pages have become painfully stale and dated.
With a heavy heart, I’m announcing that, unless someone else wants to run the Library Success Wiki on their own server, the wiki will be going dark on February 2, 2018. This should give people time to move information important to them to other collaboration tools and for a knight in shining armor who wants the hassle of managing the wiki themselves to emerge. It can be hard to let go of services that no longer have the ROI they used to, and I’ve wrestled with the idea of saying goodbye to the wiki for years. It’s time. It’s past time.
What will future historians will see as the major Russian contribution to early 21st-century Internet culture? It might not be troll farms and other strategies for poisoning public conversation — but rather, the democratization of access to scientific and scholarly knowledge.

Preprints sind in den Biowissenschaften längst nicht so bekannt wie beispielsweise in der Physik. Woran liegt das und welche Veränderungen gibt es vielleicht schon?
