Epìdosis (talkcontribs)

Hi! I noticed that in Giacomo Ricci (Q118687901): Italian religious writer (15th century) and Giacomo Ricci (Q118685571): Italian physician and philosopher (15th century) you added the same SBN as conflated. I have the possibility to solve conflations (and duplications and other mistakes) in SBN, so I managed to correct the conflation; now https://opac.sbn.it/risultati-autori/-/opac-autori/detail/BVEV050929 is only the second, whilst https://opac.sbn.it/risultati-autori/-/opac-autori/detail/SBNV102237 is the first; I usually edit the items while I edit SBN, but take into account that my edits become visible only each Tuesday, so they aren't visible yet (specifically, SBNV IDs are usually the ones I create to solve conflations). To conclude, if you find any mistake in SBN, you can report it directly in my user talk page and I will try to solve it as soon as possible. Thanks!

Dear HHill,

I hope you are doing good,

I am Kholoud, a researcher at King’s College London, and I work on a project as part of my PhD research that develops a personalized recommendation system to suggest Wikidata items for the editors based on their interests and preferences. I am collaborating on this project with Elena Simperl and Miaojing Shi.

I would love to talk with you to know about your current ways to choose the items you work on in Wikidata and understand the factors that might influence such a decision. Your cooperation will give us valuable insights into building a recommender system that can help improve your editing experience.  

Participation is completely voluntary. You have the option to withdraw at any time. Your data will be processed under the terms of UK data protection law (including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018). The information and data that you provide will remain confidential; it will only be stored on the password-protected computer of the researchers. We will use the results anonymized to provide insights into the practices of the editors in item selection processes for editing and publish the results of the study to a research venue. If you decide to take part, we will ask you to sign a consent form, and you will be given a copy of this consent form to keep.

If you’re interested in participating and have 15-20 minutes to chat (I promise to keep the time!), please either contact me at [] or [] or use this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdmmFHaiB20nK14wrQJgfrA18PtmdagyeRib3xGtvzkdn3Lgw/viewform?usp=sf_link with your choice of the times that work for you.

I’ll follow up with you to figure out what method is the best way for us to connect.

Please contact me if you have any questions or require more information about this project.

Thank you for considering taking part in this research.

Regards

Dear Kholoud,

I happen to have some misgivings about recommendation systems and I would prefer not to use Zoom for stuff like this. My backlog here and on my homewiki is large enough to fill any amount of spare time I am wiling to give for years to come and I have no doubt I would be capable of coming up with new ideas for decades more. Reading books on the topics you are interested in does help with that.
