My name: Martin (Q18002399) Poulter (Q7235572).

Wikidata Queries

edit

I am learning about SPARQL and the Query Service so I can make interesting visualisations for research and education. A sub-page lists my example queries.

Past work

edit

From October 2016 to October 2019, I was employed as the Wikimedian In Residence at the University of Oxford, based at the Bodleian Libraries. This involved some paid editing to share data from and about GLAMs and research projects with Wikidata.

Properties

edit

I proposed Electronic Enlightenment ID (P3429), English Short Title Catalogue ID (P3939), thesis submitted to (P4101), Atlas of Hillforts ID (P4102), Early Modern Letters Online location ID (P4672), Japan Search name ID (P6698), Dictionary of Irish Biography ID (P6829)

Puzzle games

edit

I've contributed some games to Wikidata:Everything is connected.

Visualisations I use in presentations

Me in Wikidata

edit
  • I'm Q19959618. I wrote Q42887055. I devised and implemented the programme of Q114247349 though it was Phoebe Harkins at the Wellcome Collection who truly made it happen.

I've done about 230,000 edits through User:QuickStatementsBot.
