Open Scientist, very much involved in the Blue Obelisk (Q4420286) View profile on Scholia movement, Egon Willighagen (Q20895241) View profile on Scholia in the Wikidata database. Co-submitter of the Enabling Open Science: Wikidata for Research (Wiki4R) (Q26707522) View profile on Scholia.[1][2] Also contributed to the Scholia project.[3] Participating in Wikidata since July 2013.[4] I practice open notebook science and my Wikidata notebooks can be found at https://github.com/egonw/ons-wikidata

Seven years later, on September 19th 2020, I made my 1 millionth edit. Later milestones:

Chemistry has my main interest, metabolites particularly, but I am interested in science at large, including the process and the history.

Doing these days edit

Things I am doing or interested in in Wikidata right now include:

Events edit

Proposals edit

Accepted Properties edit

Shape expressions edit

Shape expressions are a nice way to formally document the structure of data. In Wikidata these are covered by EntitySchema. I started a few of them:

Curation lists edit

Bots edit

User:UreomiczBot edit

I have started developing a bot to working on metabolic pathways related information.

User:Ureomics and User:UreomicsBot edit

Based on a request, I have created a third account, again ending with "bot". These two accounts are defunct.

Finished/Retired/Paused tasks edit
