Hi David, 

Thanks for your email. Yes. Conceptually, marry Google Translate in ~100 languages with recent developments in AI with its Tensor Flow with Wikidata / Wiktionary (building out dictionaries) in its Wikipedia 358 languages, with Ethnologue's 7,097 living languages' register with Glottolog's 7,943 entries under languages, with the ISO's lists of languages - in relational databases. Add Google Hangouts' Youtube videos of anthropologists / linguists doing field work in all 7,097+ languages, synthesized into a developing realistic virtual earth with realistic avatars (with time slider, so conceptually like Google Streetview/Maps/Earth with time slider with OpenSimulator/Second Life planned for all 8k languages) for further language generation computationally. More here in blog posts in the "language" and other label  - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/language. And more here - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_Universal_Translator - especially after CC World University and School (which is CC MIT OCW-centric in its 7 languages, and CC Yale OYC-centric) moves from our current Wikia wiki to one emerging from Wikidata possibly in MediaWiki. Thank you. 

See, too, as they newly emerge - 

Academic Press at World University and School - 
Best wishes, 
Scott

Ok I'll bite. Is this serious? If so I'm really keen to see the books you publish in some of the obscure languages I work on in Cameroon. I'd buy them in Mambila or Kwanja even if I wont in English. But I am puzzled how you propose to do it since among other problems there arent dictionaries availble (I'm working on it but don’t hold your breath)

New hippy hot springs' ethnographic field sites

Hi E,

The weather looked nicely clear yesterday evening in Chicago, E - but with snow on the ground and 35 degrees outside! How are you?

I think you're right about leaving Harbin behind now and for good as field site, and as place to visit (re: http://bit.ly/HarbinBook) ... an act of renunciation of a kind - a Harbin renunciation story, and even as a nontheist F/friend/Quaker (... or until I learn remotely that a significant non-harming ethos has emerged there and then to wait a further 3-8 years), ... 

and Re realistic virtual world generation with hot springs for comparative ethnographic field work (and for soaking at home in bath tub for its warm water inner releasing meditation possibilities), I think I might explore a number of other hot springs and as virtual field sites for actual-virtual comparisons, and as both virtual and actual places to visit too, especially in other languages (India, Japan and German speaking ones perhaps? ...) {... and for studying great brain chemistry happiness}. Wonder what already exists re this in Google Expeditions (potentially with its Street View & Maps & Earth too), and which might develop further STEM- and wiki-wise, and as "classrooms" as well.

(Here's a list of Google Expeditions Virtual Reality locations: http://mrcaffrey.com/google-expeditions-world-map/ and http://mrcaffrey.com/google-expeditions/).

Re hippie informed ones - hot springs in the Pacific Northwest or Southwest? 

Re this and social, clothing optional ones? Same ... 

Re enjoyment of travel to and fro virtually ... Long walks beforehand ? 
(And visit actual ones within a few hours' drive of where I'm living ... possibly for example Wilbur, Orr etc). 

What are some great hot springs near Santa Cruz?

{I'd like to visit Breitenbush in Oregon - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breitenbush_Hot_Springs - in the 60s and 70s, and Ten Thousand Waves Spa New Mexico? ... and Esalen then too, especially if there were film from these times, which was then converted into realistic avatars in a realistic virtual earth with a time slider for example - and ethnographically ... for participant observation. }

Here's a plan or vision for this ...
Get off the plane in Pgh (with my friend/wife and 3 kids, for example), find my way to the home I lived in in high school, get into a bath tub, and visit whatever hot springs in the world I might like, which would be an actual/virtual amalgam (to protect identities STEM wise too) and soak and visit with people and make new friends too.

Some of the above could mean that my next book will be explicitlty not Harbin-centric (but could include some Harbin poetry possibly) ... and perhaps as smaller volumes via the Academic Press at WUaS  .... or a new World University Poetry Press ... How best writing-wise to make slim volumes "rock"? How too to take a photo, and then find an application which allows me to digitally "pencil draw" some art from this?

Looking forward to seeing ma mere, but more so to connecting eventually & naturally with a great partner-friend-wife-mom to be for family, kids and deep caring, affection and understanding - and even a co-thinking conversation over decades...

Have a great holiday season, E!

Fond regards,
Scott

Hi E,

Traveling observations ...

Not seeing anyone in Google Cardboard viewing virtual reality, for example, but a few people are wearing earphones, and it seems like everyone has a smartphone or occasionally a  larger computer ...

"Vesting" will be an important incentive at World University and School ... but how to build in happiness and flourishing for learners and teachers as incentives as well, M? It's hard to say which Universities do this in great and creative ways. (I've pointed anecdotally and from quite a distance to the Quaker Earlham College in Indiana in the past as an example of a culture which generated great happiness and flourishing, based on experiences with family members who have gone there, as well as people I've met who have graduated from Earlham since the 1950s).

Curious what a kind of "yoga of marriage" is for family generation (beyond, in the west, Angela Farmer and Victor van Kooten's example, and perhaps Rodney Yee's and Colleen's as well) will emerge re WUaS. Social theory-wise, this would include questions of norms, which people and freedom-seeking moments in the 1960s and 1970s profoundly questioned and reformulated. (I can see Yoga from the 1970s and beyond, in the U.S., as an expression of freedom-seeking ... and in reference to somehow Patanjalian Yoga / India norms post 1960s, but emerging out of the West and western / U.S. cultural patterns ... e.g. family patterns giving rise to children, and now in the information technology age).

Culture (re identity and discourse), well beyond nation state to nation state, plays a role in both of these questions - a) how to build into this school (World University and school) great happiness and flourishing. as well as build in "vesting" financially (the conveying to an employee of unconditional entitlement to a share in a pension fund) for retirement, for example, and b) re "marriage" for harmonious families (and to have kids too), how this will "just happen" - as it has for billions of years - and re a new university and school planned in all countries' main languages (as the Harvards of the Internet) as well as in all 7,097+ living languages as wiki schools. 

L,
Scott

It's quite a remarkable philosophy department (with linguistics especially) at CC MIT OCW which World University will be able to build on -
https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/linguistics-and-philosophy/ - by hiring graduate students to teach online in group video to these MIT faculty in video as they become faculty.

"Joy to the World" in this holiday season, and greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where I'm visiting for the holidays.

Merry Christmas, Anita, Os, Rosemary, John and Nontheist Friends!

Greatly enjoying the Xmas music here on the radio - while visiting in Pennsylvania (it's been a long time since it was a Friendly religious experiment as Penns' Woods - and I'm in the other smaller big city in western PA, and not in the City of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia, which has changed so much since its Quaker "heyday" in the the 1600s and 1700s) - even while thinking through how Richard Dawkins - https://twitter.com/RichardDawkins - might respond to the Bible Readings (mentioning nakedness in the garden, for example) in the music from Kings' College Cambridge - as a kind of atheist Quaker. 

My mother in her early 80s in enjoying learning about the new iPhone smartphone she got herself recently, and especially its robust voice recognition software (Siri is more robust than Google Voice, but Google Voice will improve with Google's A.I. software TensorFlow). Did NtFriends see the recent NYT's article on the Great A.I. Awakening, which you'll see here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/12/mantis-shrimp-world-university-and.html)?

Here's my Holiday Letter for all of you as well - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/12/muir-woods-holiday-greetings-2016.html

Eurasian lynx: What do the MIT Media Lab and Wikidata in terms of hiring 10 hr/week independent contractor coders like Uber's taxi driver model do?, "2016: A year in the life of the Lab"

Although I can't think of many examples of how this "independent contractor" taxi driver interacting person-to-person (relating in an open source way to the Uber database) model might work yet at World University and School, I wonder what the MIT Media Lab and Wikidata do in these regards.

And WUaS would like to hire students to work 10/hours per week in all 8k languages directly too, like Harvard, MIT, Stanford and Oxbridge do, but this could have a more direct link to revenue generation (as would the FTE academics we seek to hire in all 200 countries' main languages - as "Harvards" of the web).

Pragmatically, I think using the following can easily help improve ones security significantly

a) Gmail / Google ecosystem, which seems designed with security in mind (keep in mind that employees often have access to their companies'"products")

b) Tor browser project - https://www.torproject.org/download/download

c) Electronic Frontier Foundation's HTTPS ("hypertext transfer protocol security" layer) everywhere - https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere

... although with information technologies from an end user perspective, one can't know for sure ...

d) I'd hazard that Google group video Hangouts within the Google ecosystem are or can be some of the most secure and anonymous video conferencing system around

e) And probably much thought has gone into Google's Tensor Flow AI software in terms of security as well - and again within the Google ecosystem

Golden Gate Park: Visit the Harbin Hot Springs' Gate here ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg, and walk all the way down the 4 mile road to Middletown, I'll likely be soaking in my bathtub a lot while visiting this virtual Harbin, (Cartoon-esque OpenSim and Second Life are models for how this might work with avatars and voice and how we might group build this too), I'll keep you in the loop as this virtual Harbin community emerges, and I bet you could help generate wonderful community therein.

Here's the current virtual Harbin -  ...

1)
The first virtual Harbin was a warm pool built in OpenSim in about 2008 with two avatars (B.H. and me) making this

2)
The second virtual Harbin was begun on Anteater Island - the American Anthropological Association's virtual island in SL - where I built the beginnings of a first Harbin Gatehouse with Tom Boellstorff's permission, who was then editor at the AAA, in the early 2010s.

3)
The third virtual Harbin -  - is in Google Streetview / Maps / Earth with Time Slider, and I've added one photo from 2001 to this.

4)
The fourth virtual Harbin will hopefully emerge in Google Expeditions, integrated into the Google Ecosystem for wiki STEM research planned in all 8k languages.

Hi Scott,

It was so nice to meet you on Christmas eve at UU.  I love what you are doing with the world u and cyber community building.  I have been really longing for more community (and Harbin!!!) and I plan on trying out your google plus group.  

If you feel like going for a walk or cup of coffee before you leave, give me a ring ...  I'd love to visit again.  

warmly, 
Bets



Hi Bets,

Greetings from airport world. Very nice to talk with you as well on Christmas Eve at the Unitarian Church. I've had a busy past few days with family so couldn't really meet but thanks for your nice invitation.

Do you happen to know another Bets from Harbin, originally from Ma (whom I also know partly through Angela & Victor's Yoga)?

Click through on a big computer screen (not smartphone) to the Harbin gate in Google Maps / Streetview here -
http://twitter.com/HarbinBook (at the top 
Harbin Hot Springs Book  Visit the Harbin Gate here ~ ) and walk all the way down the 4 mile road to Middletown (or at least a little bit), if you're inclined. I hope this will become very realistic as a virtual Harbin/earth with time (in Google Expeditions?), and with realistic humans, both avatars and real people like you and I. I'll likely be soaking in my bathtub a lot while visiting this virtual Harbin. (Cartoon-esque OpenSim and Second Life are models for how this might work with avatars and voice and how we might group build this too).

Let's have a virtual coffee together in the virtual Harbin Blue Room cafe (post-fire) when it's built and happening and from where ever we are physically. I'm curious very much how to generate greatest Harbin community in such a realistic online virtual Harbin with realistic avatars, like you and I, and with fantastic avatars too. Right now getting into a Google group Video Hangout (a musical one, for example?, which live video can then be saved to Youtube, and then which people in Youtube videos will eventually become interactive avatars I predict), is the best way to participate in the kind of community I think will be in a realistic, virtual Harbin. I'll keep you in the loop as this virtual Harbin community emerges, and I bet you could help generate wonderful community therein.

Happy New Year!

Friendly regards,
Scott


Hi Scoot, 

Sorry not to get to see you in person again, but it will be interesting to have coffee in "the blue room!" I have never done that sort of thing so I am interested to give it a try.  I teach on-line and am continually amazed both by the effectiveness of it and the extra effort it takes for me to make the connections work.  We will see!  I deeply crave community and am excited about the potential for good of the global reach.  You should check out The Shift Network to see the sort of things they have been doing.  

I don't know a Betsy from MA/Harbin, but is there a chance we have met at Harbin?  You looked familiar to me.  I apologize if I did not catch it out of context.  

Happy trails until we meet in blue!

warmly, 
Betsy

I don't think we've met at Harbin, Bets.

Best,
Scott

Hi M,

Apropos your wonderful hospitality and our sharing Christmas together, I'm curious how our mother-son Pairbonding might inform my connecting with a partner for family. Sharing with you these past few days gave me a sense of confidence that was kind of transformative. As the soul music song goes "I want to testify what your love has done for me." And as an anthropologist, I'm familiar with, and appreciate too, the caring, thoughtful, understanding culture/milieu/discourse you generate - and re your beautiful home too. Appreciating too the significance of awareness/consciousness in thinking about this. Bringing this all to consciousness through writing and re language has merit for further developing understandings. 

But I'm also interested in ways theoretically to build on this generally and re a potential online California School of Psychoanalysis at WUaS (for job generation too). What could analysts do in these regards online in group video with analysands - and in multiple languages and re studying outcomes vis a vis language use - in all 7,097 living languages potentially?

...

I think both Lacan (post Freud) and subsequent great psychoanalytic theorists don't take into account Pairbonding + per John Money's 5 "Concepts of Determinism" for example - http://scottmacleod.com/anthropology/determinism.htm - which I've written to you about before (and which is also in my blog here) as well as much, much recent brain science, so there's much potential for a new online California School of Psychoanalysis ... And that this would rewrite analysis-analysand language interactions and understandings and connecting (re Pairbonding +) ... and brain as information technology ... and the therapeutic encounter, - and eventually with AI - is fascinating,  and also re affection for robots' studies such as by MIT researcher Kate Darling - https://twitter.com/grok_.

(I'm getting my MacBook repaired. I've put in hard drives before, but getting it repaired professionally will probably be better, - and also cheaper than Apple doing it. I also went into a T-Mobile store and "test drove" a new Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro/S2 for $700 there and was impressed (this is at the top of Consumer Reports tablets' list, above the iPad). The stylus is what's different with the similar Samsung Galaxy Note Pro (their store had very fast internet). So I think I'm interested in a refurbished/used 12.2 Note Pro for possibly $475-ish  ...
https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-inches-processo-Android/dp/B00HWMPSK6 ...
since it also first came out in Jan 2014 so it's had time to improve).

L,
Scott

Curious too how such an online California School of Psychoanalysis at WUaS would engage meditation and even entheogens re Romain Rollands'"oceanic feeling" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oceanic_feeling) for example, all as brain information technologies, and especially neurophysiologies (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Neurophysiology and re too http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Loving_Bliss_(eliciting_this_neurophysiology) and http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Neurobiology) - and re languages (and getting the analyst-analysand communication process "correct" and theoretically and actually therapeutically helpful).

A.I. (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Artificial_Intelligence) seems to offer the possibility of speeding up the traditional 3-5 year course of psychoanalysis where the analyst-analysand meet 4-5 times per week, but in light of new brain science construed here in terms of biological brain information technology, and great psychoanalysis with very smart analysts (who have read, for example, the psychoanalytic, evolutionary biological, primatological, brain science and philosophical literature, and understood and synthesized it; and who also may understand culture/identity/discourse, whether this be hippie culture in the 2010s in northern California (e.g. http://amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity~), or any of the cultures in the 6 other non-English languages in MIT OCW - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/), WUaS research will have to further discover in many languages what helpful duration of psychoanalytic meetings online would be.

Hi M,

Thank you again. ...

WUaS needs students for the autumn - and for this we need a better web site. 

Seek a group of WUaS 17 year old students through the 
  • Quaker I.B. Ramallah School and Joyce Ajlouny there (whom I've met in Palo Alto Friends Meeting in person), among others including too through head of school, re a Quaker I.B. school partly in Arabic (importantly, since MIT OCW is only in Persian and Turkish of the large languages in the Middle East). 
  • John Palfrey at Phillips Academy Andover
  • India (since many speak English in India)
... as if applying to, getting into and matriculating at MIT itself ...

This is a list of further foci re this for the new year.

Develop WUaS newly in Wikidata / MediaWiki

File for-profit papers and develop this side too of WUaS - and perhaps re Wikidata affiliates

Communicate further with MIT Dean C d'O, who was helpful this spring

Develop accreditation plan - perhaps first with FAHE / Quakers and then WASC senior

Sign up for Grants.gov

Write grants to Foundations: 
  • Apply to / inquire with Sunlight Foundation is one first step, for example. 

Explore co-teaching Cognitive Computing with J.S.

L,
Scott

Dear L, 

Good news today in Wikidata office hours, with some good questions from multichill (Martin Dammers). 

The next step is to add what WUaS wants to add to Wikidata here - https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat . Glad we're continuing to engage Wikidata process :)

I'm posting the transcript below.

I just created what WUaS would like to add to here - Wikidata https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat#What_World_University_and_School_would_like_to_add_to_Wikidata - for the record and as part of the Wikidata process.

What World University and School would like to add to Wikidata[edit | Add topic]

Hi All, (Lydia and Lea),
To begin, CC World University and School would like to add CC MIT OpenCourseWare in its 7 languages and CC Yale OYC to Wikidata.
CC WUaS seeks to accredit on CC MIT OCW in its 7 languages  https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm (https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm) & https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/ (https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/) & http://oyc.yale.edu/courses (http://oyc.yale.edu/courses) to create major universities in all countries' main languages to offer free CC Bachelor, Ph.D., law, M.D. and I.B. high school degrees in all ~200 countries' main and official languages - the "Harvards/MITs/Stanfords of the web". WUaS also seeks to develop in all 7,097 living languages as wiki schools for open teaching and learning.
World University and School's main areas for growth for Wikidata, furthermore, lie in the ~ 10 main areas here - worlduniversityandschool.org.
And WUaS also has another planned wing, which should benefit Wikidata pragmatically, around WUaS's 14 planned revenue streams worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html.
How best to begin this process?
Thank you!
All the best, Scott Scott WUaS (talk) 19:37, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

andre__: May World University and School please have for a project/tag for WUaS in Fabricator?

[10:01] <hweyl> +1
[10:01] <Lydia_WMDE> very nice :)
[10:01] <Lydia_WMDE> alright then let's get started
[10:02] <Lydia_WMDE> I want to start with an overview of what's been happening around Wikidata over the past 3 months and what is coming in the next 3
[10:02] <Lydia_WMDE> and then we can do Q&A
[10:02] <Lydia_WMDE> and then Scott wanted to talk a bit more about WUS
[10:02] <Scott_WUaS> +1
[10:02] <multichill> Windows Update Service?
[10:02] <Lydia_WMDE> :D
[10:03] <Lydia_WMDE> let's start with the first point

[10:03] <Lydia_WMDE> around Wikidata itself we've been working quite a bit on usability issues
[10:03] <Lydia_WMDE> we've published a user script to integrate citoid in Wikidata
[10:03] <Lydia_WMDE> it'd be great if you could test it
[10:03] <Lydia_WMDE> and give feedback
[10:04] <Lydia_WMDE> we've also worked on ordering all statements in an item based on a global list of properties as we had tried out with the gadget. that should come in the next weeks. then it'll hopefully be easier to scan an item and see the most important info first
[10:04] == Stryn [~chatzilla@wikipedia/Stryn] has quit [Quit: See you again!]
[10:04] <Lydia_WMDE> we've removed some jumping anomations in the user interface
[10:05] <Lydia_WMDE> and it is now possible to paste full urls into the sitelink field and commons media properties
[10:05] <Lydia_WMDE> that should make it easier for powerusers to add this kind of data when quickly copying

[10:06] <Lydia_WMDE> multichill: ah that one. yes. noted
[10:06] <Lydia_WMDE> what we'll work on next for usability is this:

[10:07] <Lydia_WMDE> improved keyboard navigation. (please give feedback to Auregann_WMDE about this if you use wikidata with your keyboard a lot
[10:07] == srrodlund [~srrodlund@198.73.209.1] has joined #wikimedia-office
[10:08] <Lydia_WMDE> we're also researching moving some of our widgets to OOUI in order to be more in line with the rest of wikimedia. while doing that we're looking at redesigning the input widgets to be less confusing.
[10:08] <Lydia_WMDE> and we're creating a new datatype to link to the new data namespace on commons for maps and data pages
[10:08] <Lydia_WMDE> next one - the query service
[10:09] <BrillLyle_> is that in coordination with @yurik's work?
[10:09] <Lydia_WMDE> BrillLyle_: yes
[10:09] <BrillLyle_> Fabulous. Thx!
[10:09] <Lydia_WMDE> there is now a shiny new query service portal that links together all the help pages, examples and more
[10:09] <multichill> New datadatatype. Awesome! Are you also putting effort into the thing that suggests properties/items to add?
[10:10] <YairRand> Q re the new data namespace datatype: Will the contents of those pages be accessible from the query service?

[10:10] <yurik> community question about integrating back to wikidata from datasets
[10:11] <Lydia_WMDE> multichill: yes - Marius has been working ona new algorithm for property suggestions that hopefully can be tried in the next weeks. the suggestions for items will need to wait for our move to elastic search for this. Stas said he'd want to help with that
[10:11] <Lydia_WMDE> i'll talk to him more at the developer summit next week about it
[10:11] <Lydia_WMDE> yurik: thx
[10:11] <Lydia_WMDE> YairRand: unlike - definitely not soon
[10:12] <Lydia_WMDE> ok back to units: more domensions for unit conversion will be added soon

[10:12] <BrillLyle_> Wait where is the shiny new query service portal that links the help pages?
[10:12] <Lydia_WMDE> Auregann_WMDE will also help with organizing an event/activity around improving our enduser documentation in the next weeks
[10:13] <Lydia_WMDE> BrillLyle_: Auregann_WMDE is getting a link
[10:13] <BrillLyle_> Thnx
[10:13] <multichill> yurik: Why did you use names in the new Data namespace and not identifiers like Wikidata? The "File:123" names are a huge PITA
[10:13] == DanielK_WMDE [daniel@wikipedia/duesentrieb] has joined #wikimedia-office
[10:14] <BrillLyle_> Excellent. WM NYC has a large event where we will be demoing SPARQL. This is great.
[10:14] <Lydia_WMDE> \o/
[10:14] <Jens_WMDE> \o/
[10:14] <Lydia_WMDE> BrillLyle_: give the data to Auregann_WMDE so she can add it to the weekly summary and so on
[10:14] <Auregann_WMDE> \o/
[10:14] <yurik> multichill, because then I would have to come up with a data creation interface - and for that I would need to alter the way commons functions more substantially
[10:14] <Lydia_WMDE> ok next big topic is support for structured data on commons
[10:15] <Lydia_WMDE> we've done a lot of groundwork in two ares
[10:15] <Scott_WUaS> great
[10:15] <Lydia_WMDE> the first one is multi-content-revisions. this is necessary to teach mediawiki to handle different types on content in the same page. We'll need this to add structured data to file pages
[10:16] <Lydia_WMDE> the other one is federation. we'll need this to be able to use wikidata's items and properties on commons
[10:16] <Lydia_WMDE> i hope we have a prototype for that in 2 weeks
[10:16] <YairRand> sorry, does "structured data" refer to the data namespace, or file metadata stuff?
[10:16] <Lydia_WMDE> YairRand: the latter
[10:16] <YairRand> thanks
[10:16] <BrillLyle_> I hesitate to bring this up but does Commons data have categories? Is there a way to auto-collocate these special data sets?
[10:16] <multichill> In the future identifiers and titles should be decoupled as much as possible IMHO. Is that also the plan for the file metadata stuff?
[10:17] <Lydia_WMDE> BrillLyle_: that is a question for yurik i think
[10:18] <yurik> BrillLyle_, not yet, working on it, or we could wait for the STructured Data ;)
[10:18] <yurik> Lydia_WMDE, what's the ETA on that you think?
[10:18] <BrillLyle_> ok. understand... Thnx
[10:18] <Lydia_WMDE> yurik: no eta because it will be a staged rollout
[10:19] <yurik> Lydia_WMDE, how do you mean?
[10:19] <Lydia_WMDE> so there will be some parts earlier and some parts later but i can't make firm committments with so much in the air around multicontent revisions
[10:19] <Lydia_WMDE> it is a huge change that needs a lot of work from different parties
[10:19] <Lydia_WMDE> so no eta from me on that
[10:20] <Lydia_WMDE> ok next big work area: wikipedia + co support
[10:21] <Lydia_WMDE> we've done an iteration on the concepts for editing Wikidata directly from Wikipedia
[10:21] <Lydia_WMDE> it'll be published for the next round of feedback before the end of the month
[10:21] <BrillLyle_#yay!
[10:21] <Lydia_WMDE> we've also worked on making articleplaceholder pages show up in search engines. that still needs some work with the operations team before it can go live though

[10:22] <Lydia_WMDE> you can now also translate articles from the articleplaceholder with contenttranslation
[10:23] <Lydia_WMDE> we've also put live a new parser function and Lua functions that give you back better formatted values
[10:23] <Ainali> Lydia_WMDE: What does that mean? Editing labels in wikidata?
[10:23] <Lydia_WMDE> that should make it easier to build nice infoboxes
[10:23] <multichill> Lydia_WMDE: Another usuability issue. You mentioned search. Are you also going to index the string data types? Right now it's not in the search engine making it impossible to find them (for example https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q28128120&action=cirrusdump )
[10:23] <Lydia_WMDE> Ainali: any data ideally

[10:23] <Lydia_WMDE> multichill: jep - also going to be handled with the move to elastic search
[10:24] <Lydia_WMDE> right now elastic search really doesn't understand our data
[10:24] <Lydia_WMDE> we need to fix that and then things will be magic :D
[10:24] <Ainali> Lydia_WMDE: I mean content translation. If it is article palce holder, is there something else to translate than labels from Wikidata?
[10:24] <multichill> Great, having to use Google to find something on Wikidata is a bit frustrating ;-)
[10:24] <Lydia_WMDE> Ainali: ahh no. you create the article by translating from another language where one exists
[10:24] <Lydia_WMDE> sorry
[10:25] <Ainali> Ah, so not translating _from_ article place holder, but _to_?
[10:25] <Lydia_WMDE> yes
[10:25] <Ainali> I see, then great!

[10:26] <Lydia_WMDE> another thing we added on wikipedia is in the page information (action=info) and the editor (action=edit). there you can now find a list of items that contribute data to a given article

[10:29] <Lydia_WMDE> the last thing we've done in the Wikipedia + co area is research. we talked to people how they're currently working with list articles
[10:29] <Lydia_WMDE> this is in preparation for the work on automated list generation
[10:29] <Lydia_WMDE> in the coming quarter we'll publish the click-dummy for editing wikidata directly from wikipedia
[10:29] <Lydia_WMDE> we'll do a trial of search engine indexing of the articleplaceholder
[10:30] == bmansurov has changed nick to bmansurov_away
[10:30] <Lydia_WMDE> we'll be adding an empty system message to the end of content pages. some wikipedias have requested this so they can overwrite it with a template call to the authority control template and then have it show up in all articles
[10:30] <Lydia_WMDE> and if time permits we'll do some more experimenting with making query writing and editing easier
[10:31] <Lydia_WMDE> and now Auregann_WMDE takes over :D
[10:31] <Scott_WUaS> :)
[10:31] <abian> Will the click-dummy have some kind of warnings when introducing constraint violations?
[10:31] <BrillLyle> do you have a link to an example of the empty system message?
[10:32] <Lydia_WMDE> abian: the dummy not - too early for it because we're still making sure the general concept is actually viable
[10:32] <BrillLyle> ah okay. thx
[10:32] <abian> Okay :)
[10:32] <multichill> A Wikidata item and the contents in a Wikipedia infobox have a major difference: Wikidata wants all the data that was correct at some point in time, Wikipedia infobox only wants the data that is current. What do you do to make direct editing work in this situation?
[10:32] <BrillLyle> it is a way to force a refresh of the authority control?
[10:32] <Lydia_WMDE> BrillLyle: no since it doesn't exist yet but i can look up the ticket for you.
[10:32] <Auregann_WMDE> Let's talk about Wikidata for Wiktionary now :)
[10:32] <Scott_WUaS> :)
[10:32] <multichill> ( having wasted quite a bit of time on a Wikipedia editor who removed a lot of statements )
[10:32] <BrillLyle> ok
[10:33] <Auregann_WMDE> we've been doing a lot of groundwork for new entity type for lexemes
[10:33] <Lydia_WMDE> BrillLyle: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138652
[10:33] <Auregann_WMDE> we will soon be able to publish a prototype, so people can understand better how it will be structured
[10:33] <Lydia_WMDE> multichill: that is exactly one of the tricky parts we need to solve with the clickdummy
[10:33] <BrillLyle> thx
[10:33] <Lydia_WMDE> multichill: Charlie published her thesis where she lined out the ideas
[10:34] <Lydia_WMDE> it is on commons
[10:34] <Lydia_WMDE> i can look it up if you want
[10:34] <Auregann_WMDE> we developed a new extension to automate sitelinks (Cognate), that should be deployed in the next weeks

[10:40] <multichill> BrillLyle: The conference is in Berlin, but I'm sure many other events will happen around that time too
[10:40] <BrillLyle> I understand. thnx

[10:43] <Auregann_WMDE> Loads of new catalogs have been added to Mix’n’match
[10:43] <multichill> Time to create https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Fifth_Birthday ?

[10:52] <Lydia_WMDE> more questions?
[10:52] <Scott_WUaS> Building on beginning WUaS in MediaWiki on January 6, 2016, in both English and German (but not in Wikidata at the time), how best to begin this again now in both Wikidata, MediaWiki and with adding CC MIT OCW in its 7 languages to Wikidata?
[10:52] <YairRand> so... what does WUS/WUaS actually stand for?
[10:53] <Scott_WUaS> World University and School
[10:53] <dennyvrandecic> what's the timeline for the lexical and commons data?
[10:53] == J-Mo1 [~jtmorgan@wikipedia/Jtmorgan] has joined #wikimedia-office

[10:54] <YairRand> I see
[10:54] <multichill> Scott_WUaS: Please don't use abbreviations ever at all in an international context or use the full name () the first time you use it
[10:54] <Lydia_WMDE> dennyvrandecic: commons: too unsure to tell because multi content revisions is a huge core change which needs work and committment from several teams at the wmf. so moving but no eta.
[10:54] == mutante [mutante@wikimedia/mutante] has left #wikimedia-office []
[10:54] <Lydia_WMDE> dennyvrandecic: lexical data: automated sitelinks should be ready for deplyoment in the next two weeks and then needs announcement and rollout - so maybe 1 month
[10:55] <Scott_WUaS> CC WUaS seeks to accredit on MIT OCW in its 7 languages https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm & https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/ to create major universities in all countries' main languages
[10:55] <Lydia_WMDE> for the lexeme entity type i want a demo out in the middle of february
[10:55] <Scott_WUaS> Thanks, Multichill - will do
[10:55] <dennyvrandecic> just lexeme, or including forms and senses?
[10:55] <lucaswerkmeister> Lydia_WMDE: demo will be on test.wikidata.org?
[10:55] <lucaswerkmeister> or on wikidata proper?
[10:55] <Lydia_WMDE> dennyvrandecic: the former ;-)
[10:55] <Lydia_WMDE> lucaswerkmeister: beta-wikidata
[10:56] <Lydia_WMDE> or another test system at first

[10:56] <Scott_WUaS> World University also seeks to create wiki schools for open teaching and learning in all 7,097 known living languages building on Wikipedia's 358 languages - and with translation between - in the form of a universal translator.
[10:57] <YairRand> Q: how well-developed are the ideas for how wikidata data will be used on wiktionary? is it mostly "we'll figure it out later"?
[10:57] <Lydia_WMDE> dennyvrandecic: i can't give more, sorry
[10:58] <lucaswerkmeister> what’s the timeline for normalized unit support in more dimensions? is there a phabricator ticket I can follow?
[10:58] <multichill> Scott_WUaS: What do you actually want to add to Wikidata ?
[10:58] <dennyvrandecic> no timeline beyond mid-february? :)
[10:58] <Scott_WUaS> WUaS would like to add CC MIT OCW in its 7 languages to Wikidata and CC Yale OYC to wikify them for one.

[10:59] <lucaswerkmeister> alright, thanks
[10:59] <Lydia_WMDE> lucaswerkmeister: and then we'll see which ones are missing and most wanted next
[10:59] <Lydia_WMDE> lucaswerkmeister: there is a ticket i can look up later for you
[11:00] <abian> Concerning lexical data, it would be useful for Wikidata to contact some institutions responsible for overseeing the languages?
[11:00] <multichill> Scott_WUaS: And how does this benifit Wikidata?
[11:00] <abian> For example, WMES knows the Real Academia Española for the Spanish language
[11:01] <YairRand> abian: I fail to see how that would be useful?
[11:01] <abian> Or will be Wiktionary completely enough?
[11:01] <Lydia_WMDE> abian: for feedback on the specific data modeling i think it is too early. i'd rather not have people discuss it very abstractly and try to come up with the perfect data model in advance
[11:01] <Scott_WUaS> multichill: WUaS seeks to become a growth story for Wikidata
[11:01] <Lydia_WMDE> it's beter when we're at the stage where people can actually try it

[11:02] <Scott_WUaS> in all 7,097 living languages, and by creating major universities in all ~200 countries' main and official languages out of Wikidata - the "Harvards/MITs/Stanfords of the web"
[11:03] <BrillLyle> Is there a list of "growth story" entities using Wikidata somewhere?
[11:03] <Scott_WUaS> World University and School's main areas for growth for Wikidata are the 10 main areas here - worlduniversityandschool.org
[11:03] <YairRand> is progress being made on data quality, constraints violations showing up on items, etc?
[11:03] <Lydia_WMDE> BrillLyle: growth stories?
[11:04] <multichill> Scott_WUaS: So you want to use Wikidata as your platform. I see the benifit for you, but how does Wikidata benifit from this?
[11:04] <BrillLyle> That's how Scott_WUaS described his organization
[11:04] <abian> +1 YairRand's question :)
[11:04] <BrillLyle> and its use of Wikidata
[11:04] <Lydia_WMDE> YairRand: we have a student working on it yes. not going super fast but when she's finished violations should show up next to the statement that causes the violation directly
[11:04] <Scott_WUaS> Languages / Nation States / All Libraries in all 8k languages / All Museums in all 8k languages ...
[11:05] <YairRand> Lydia_WMDE: excellent news, thank you.
[11:05] <Lydia_WMDE> :)
[11:05] <abian> Please take into account that Constraint:Contemporary wasn't included, neither as "pending"
[11:05] <Lydia_WMDE> abian: can you give more context?
[11:05] <Scott_WUaS> multichill: Wikidata, which seeks to be a platform of all knowledge, will further this with World University - WUaS dovetails with Wikidata's mission, for one ...
[11:06] <abian> Lydia_WMDE: ... in Spacial:ConstraintReport
[11:06] <Scott_WUaS> WUaS also has another wing planned wing, which should benefit Wikidata pragmatically, around WUaS's 14 planned revenue streams
[11:06] <abian> *Special
[11:07] <Lydia_WMDE> abian: ah yes - i think because it is one of the more computationally expensive ones. so they have to be done with sparql. when the special page was created it wasn't available yet. the student is working on making it use sparql. then i guess the contemporary one can be added too
[11:07] <multichill> Scott_WUaS: Wikidata is not the platform for *all* knowledge
[11:07] <Lydia_WMDE> the special page right now only contains the ones that are not computationally expensive
[11:07] <abian> Please tell me if I can help somehow :)
[11:08] <Lydia_WMDE> will do :)
[11:08] <abian> I proposed the Contemporary, and yes, was included when the rest were also considered for the special page
[11:08] <Lydia_WMDE> testing most likely
[11:08] <abian> *were already
[11:08] <Scott_WUaS> multichill: World University donated itself to Wikidata in autumn 2015 per Lydia
[11:08] <Lydia_WMDE> not sure when she'll get it to the stage where it can be tested

How best to develop a manufacturing plan on World University and School's planned for-profit wing - and in all 200 countries and 7,097 living languages?

See the 10 planned for-profit revenue streams here - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html.

In what ways could learners use such robotics to create manufacturing from home and in their language?


Given these 10 planned revenue streams in all countries' main languages, it seems that people affiliated with WUaS could manufacture many things, especially on the digital platform side of things ,but including 5a) bookstore computer store goods; 6a) products related to an academic press; 7a) two iPads on a hinge; 8a) broadband connectivity technologies; 9a) ? ; 10a) hospital technologies; 11a) resources for MindSports (in all ~200 countries' main languages); 12a) products related to AllServices; 13a) products related to AllTechnologies; and especially 14a) products related to AllSTEM Technologies ... re ...

5 - an online bookstore / computer store for text- and course books, and learning resources, planned for all 7,941+ languages

6 - an Academic Press as well as academic journals planned for many of all 7,941+ languages 

7 - lesson instruction beyond the wiki pages at the C.C. Music School at WUaS and the music instruction for the undergraduate and graduate WUaS music degrees - and in all languages for music, as well as tutoring for best STEM-centric OpenCourseWare online degrees

8 - universal broadband internet connectivity, - in collaboration with governments in all 257+ countries (and perhaps with Cisco or Google Fiber Optic as well), to facilitate universal education, and especially in the developing countries

9 - planning to become an all-language academic online manpower-brain power-language-power jobs' source for our graduates and others

10 - HospitalTechnologies (or TeachingHospitalTechnologies), both information technological, and eventually on-the-ground, planned for all 200+ nation states and in their main languages, as part of WUaS's teaching hospitals for online medical degrees. 

11 - MindSports (e.g. Chess, Poker, Bridge and the Game of Go and infinitely more), planned in all 200+ nation states and in their main languages, and as spectator sports, and anticipating machine learning; WUaS students may compete in these. 

12 - AllServices in all countries and languages (e.g. financial, banking, currency exchange, pension services, utilities, transportation, energy, regulatory services, smart cities and homes, passport, insurance, post office, etc., and possibly translation), mediated through WUaS's Nation States' Universities (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nation_States) ...

Hi Lydia (and Léa), 

Thanks and glad to have had World University and School on the Wikidata office hour agenda on Jan. 5th with you :). 

WUaS is planning to matriculate students this autumn 2017, and would like to get our new Wiki up and working emerging from Wikidata (with CC MIT OCW added for a beginning "course catalog" - and even a "You at WUaS" site up and running) and with a MediaWiki (or possibly Wikiversity) "front end". Perhaps this could be like last year's ~10 pages of WUaS in MediaWiki (from Jan-Mar 2016) to begin, but this time also in Wikidata (with our SUBJECT_TEMPLATE). 

WUaS can't really delay another year, since we've already delayed matriculating our first class for 2 years, and might have to look elsewhere. (WUaS would also like to explore the possibility of further integration with Wikimedia, as well as working with other Wikidata-affiliates for other aspects of WUaS's growth). As you know WUaS seeks to be a growth story for the Internet, and to become major universities in all countries' main and official languages, as well as to create eventually wiki schools in all 7,097 known living languages for open teaching and learning. WUaS seeks to become the Harvard / MIT / Stanford of the web in each of all languages.   

And I'd like to re-iterate my invitation to you and a handful of Wikidatans (perhaps 3-4 friends total, because that's how many would fit in my car) to come out to visit me for light refreshment one afternoon in beautiful Canyon, California, where I live in the East Bay Hills of the SF Bay Area, if we could find a time to schedule this. I think you'd both like seeing Canyon a lot, since it's in Oakland's watershed and a redwood forest, and is only about 40 minutes by car from downtown SF. :)

Best regards, 
Scott

Here are some main next further WUaS steps in the "Wikidata:Project_chat#What_World_University_and_School_would_like_to_add_to_Wikidata"... 



What World University and School would like to add to Wikidata[edit]

Hi All, (Lydia and Lea),
To begin, CC World University and School would like to add CC MIT OpenCourseWare in its 7 languages and CC Yale OYC to Wikidata.
CC WUaS seeks to accredit on CC MIT OCW in its 7 languages https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm & https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/ & http://oyc.yale.edu/courses to create major universities in all countries' main languages to offer free CC Bachelor, Ph.D., law, M.D. and I.B. high school degrees in all ~200 countries' main and official languages - the "Harvards/MITs/Stanfords of the web". WUaS also seeks to develop in all 7,097 living languages as wiki schools for open teaching and learning.
World University and School's main areas for growth for Wikidata, furthermore, lie in the ~ 10 main areas here - worlduniversityandschool.org.
And WUaS also has another planned wing, which should benefit Wikidata pragmatically, around WUaS's 14 planned revenue streams worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html.
How best to begin this process?
Thank you!
All the best, Scott Scott WUaS (talk) 19:37, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
I don't understand what you are proposing - you want to add "opencourseware" to wikidata? You mean add items for each course? I suppose that's reasonable. Please bear in mind wikidata is CC-0 (other wikimedia sites have different rules) so in particular no copyrighted material should be placed in wikidata. ArthurPSmith (talk) 20:06, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
Yes and great - WUaS would like to add CC "opencourseware" to wikidata, and probably items from each course, each course to become a wiki subject page at WUaS, and eventually for translation into each of all 200 countries' main languages, building upon the open licensing of MIT OCW Translated Courses (https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/) . Thanks for the heads' up about CC licensing consistency: MIT OCW is CC 4.0 - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ (https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm) - so we'd have to work out the licensing further. Scott WUaS (talk) 20:41, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
@Scott WUaS: What do you mean by "adding opencourseware"? Do you mean adding links to the videos/materials? It would be easier if you would create some test items on https://test.wikidata.org/ , there you can create all the properties that you need and show an example. After that you can propose the missing properties on WD:PP.--Micru (talk) 10:03, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
@Micru: In addition to adding the main OCW URL, particularly from MIT OCW in its 7 languages (but also Yale OYC), to Wikidata so that each course can appear in each of the Subjects here - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Subjects - (and also so that any given course can be listed in the top 1/3 section of, for example, the Economics' wiki subject pages (both macro and micro) - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Economics - emerging newly in probably MediaWiki), WUaS would also like to explore creating a wiki page for each MIT OCW course, based on the SUBJECT TEMPLATE - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/SUBJECT_TEMPLATE - which informs all ~720 WUaS Wikia pages, and also anticipate/plan for translation of MIT OCW into all countries' main languages for credit. This may include adding all the links from any given MIT OCW course, for example, newly to an individual WUaS MIT OCW course page in Wikidata/Mediawiki. Thanks very much for letting me know about https://test.wikidata.org/ which I didn't know about. Could we possibly please develop this together in https://test.wikidata.org/, since I don't know coding in Wikidata very well? Thank you. Scott WUaS (talk) 00:20, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
@Scott WUaS: Perhaps it is better that you take a look first at how Wikidata works here: Help:Contents. Then you can see other items and properties to see how it is done. And finally use test wikidata to practice with creating items and properties to model your data.--Micru (talk) 10:56, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
...
- The mission of Wikidata is all knowledge, and multichill: World University donated itself to Wikidata in October 2015 per Lydia and other Wikidatans. (See, too https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Main_Page and https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Mission_statement). In World University's knowledge generating mission, and having donated it to Wikidata, and in our CC MIT OCW in 7 languages' centricity, WUaS seeks to create knowledge generating universities and schools in all 8k languages. Building on beginning WUaS in MediaWiki on January 6, 2016, in both English and German (but not in Wikidata at the time), CC WUaS seeks to accredit on MIT OCW in its 7 languages https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm & https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/ and Yale OYC http://oyc.yale.edu/courses to create major wiki universities, and offer free CC degrees, in all countries' main languages. WUaS also seeks to become a growth story for Wikidata. WUaS also has another planned wing, which should benefit Wikidata pragmatically, around WUaS's 14 planned revenue streams - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html. Wikidata, which seeks to be a platform of all knowledge, will further this with World University. WUaS also dovetails with Wikidata's "Welcome" - "Wikidata is a free and open knowledge base that can be read and edited by both humans and machines.Wikidata acts as central storage for the structured data of its Wikimedia sister projects including Wikipedia, Wikivoyage, Wikisource, and others. Wikidata also provides support to many other sites and services beyond just Wikimedia projects! The content of Wikidata is available under a free license, exported using standard formats, and can be interlinked to other open data sets on the linked data web" - for one.
@Micru: Thanks very much. I'll seek to begin building World University and School in https://test.wikidata.org to practice creating items and properties to model WUaS's, MIT OCW's and Yale OYC's data. Scott WUaS (talk) 17:57, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
