Structured Data Across Wikimedia/pl

Structured Data Across Wikimedia (SDAW) is a project that will help us to structure content on wikitext pages in a way that will be machine-recognizable and -relatable, to make reading, editing, and searching easier and more accessible across projects and on the Internet.

It will help users associate contents between Wikimedia projects, help readers dive deeper in the Wikimedia knowledge ecosystem, and help contributors disseminate information across projects and beyond them in a Wikidata-like way. The project will also provide a venue for experimentation with computer-aided editing tools to make editing easier and more accessible to more editors around the world.

Background
This project is a follow-up to similar development that was completed on Commons, as part of the previous Structured Data on Commons (SDC) grant, and will be partially funded by a three year grant from the Sloan Foundation. Work on SDC made us aware of the need for more advanced metadata for all content and APIs to provide better search results, which would make in turn content more accessible, discoverable, translatable and usable for other needs.

The project has three high level goals:


 * 1) To allow machines to recognize Wikimedia content and to suggest relationships to other Wikimedia content. We are exploring this first via the image suggestion project.
 * 2) To design a way to structure articles and pages to enable new content formats – such as content served in smaller, easily digestible pieces that is more accessible for readers to use and share.
 * 3) To give Wikimedia users a more inviting, more efficient way to search and find content, building on MediaSearch, and exploring new ways to improve search across Wikipedias using Structured Data.

What is changing
The goal of the project is to design and prototype a new system that aims to be flexible enough to serve all the kinds of metadata we might need to support in the near future.

We identified three main projects that we will develop, as part of our work:
 * 1) Proponowanie ilustracji, funkcja pomagająca doświadczonym użytkownikom ilustrować artykuły Wikipedii;
 * 2) Metadane sekcji, znane także jako Tematyka sekcji, czyli opisywanie, o czym są poszczególne sekcje artykułu Wikipedii;
 * 3) Search improvements, that will use structured content to give users a more inviting and efficient way to search and find content on the Wikipedias.

The Image Suggestion UI aims at developing systems for structured data across all Wikimedia projects.

This work will build on the work already begun as part of the “Add an image” structured task project. However, its focus will be shifted towards improving the processes for experienced contributors. In particular, we will target users who have edited or watched a particular article or set of articles, since they are likely to be experts in the topic and to have interest in seeing that article(s) improve.

Tematyka sekcji
The Section Topics project will identify sections in an article and create topics accordingly for those sections, drawing on several elements, such as:


 * an algorithm that detects Wikidata items based on the section’s blue links (which will be developed in partnership with the Structured Data, Research, and Data Platform teams);
 * the ability to automatically identify sections in an article (which will be developed in partnership with the Structured Data and Data Platform teams).

One of the first use cases we envisioned for section topics will be section-level image suggestions, which will use the blue-links algorithm and section identification infrastructure above, and be delivered both via the newcomer experience and via notifications for experienced contributors. This will build upon the work done on image suggestions and will be developed in partnership with the Structured Data, Data Platform, Research, Search, Android, and Growth teams.

These elements will not change, nor impact the current editing experience for users. All these activities will be automatic and will not depend on any action from editors. Currently, this project is in its development phase, and there are still aspects that may require further investigation and/or feedback from users.

Search improvements
The Search Improvements project will use structured content to give users a more inviting and more efficient way to search and find content on the Wikipedias. By improving Special:Search, we want to enable users to find the information they are looking for, or that they may not have noticed, or previously come across through existing search.

We aim to identify and define incremental “special search” improvements that use structured content, to assist users in finding the content they are looking for, especially in those language wikis that have fewer articles.

 * Building MediaSearch on Commons.
 * MediaSearch A/B test - conducted between 10 and 17 September 2020.

Feedback
Project feedback is and will always be welcome. We are especially interested in your ideas about the extent to which you want to keep the “human-in-the-loop” throughout the topical metadata creation process. We are looking forward to hearing from you about the following open questions:


 * 1) Twoje oczekiwania co do tego projektu
 * 2) What do users expect from this project? What are the necessary actions to be addressed?
 * 3) How do you envision this metadata being used? Can you think of ways it would aid in your workflows?
 * 4) Moderowanie metadanych
 * 5) Czy konieczne będzie moderowanie aby zapobiegać wandalizmom i innym nieprawidłowościom?
 * 6) Jeżeli moderacja jest konieczna, jak może być efektywnie przeprowadzania?
 * 7) Dodawanie i potwierdzanie metadanych
 * 8) Czy użytkownicy chcą mieć możliwość potwierdzania i odrzucania metadanych sugerowanych przez automat?
 * 9) Czy użytkownicy chcą mieć możliwość dodawania dodatkowych metadanych oprócz tych zasugerowanych przez automat?
 * 10) Do you think it may just be sufficient for users to have the opportunity to send feedback with suggestions on how to improve the machine generated metadata, when necessary?
 * 11) Uprawnienia do wyświetlania i edytowania
 * 12) Czy chcemy aby metadane były widoczne dla wszystkich użytkowników czy tylko dla niektórych grup?
 * 13) Czy chcemy aby metadane były edytowalne przez wszystkich użytkowników czy tylko przez niektóre grupy?
