by Lydia Pintscher At: FOSDEM 2020 🤍 Wikidata, Wikimedia's knowledge base, has been collecting general purpose data about the world for 7 years now. This data powers Wikipedia but also many applications outside Wikimedia, like your digital personal assistant. In recent years Wikidata's community has also started collecting lexicographical data in order to provide a large data set of machine-readable data about words in hundreds of languages. In this talk we will explore how Wikidata enables thousands of volunteers to describe their languages and make it available as a source of data for systems that do automated translation, text generation and more. Room: AW1.120 Scheduled start: 2020-02-01 15:00:00
An invite from Alan Ang, Georgina Burnett and team via the Wikipedians of Goa User Group: 2022 marks the tenth birthday of Wikidata and Wikibase, the software powering Wikidata. Above the team introduces the community to Wikibase as well as its upcoming product, Wikibase.cloud, and learn how they complement the Wikimedia movement’s Linked Open Data vision. About Wikibase Wikibase is an open-source software developed by Wikimedia Deutschland, the German chapter of the international Wikimedia movement, for creating customisable collaborative knowledge bases. It powers Wikidata, and an increasing number of other projects, connecting the conocimiento of people and organisations, enabling them to open their linked data to the world. With Wikibase, users can create and manage their own linked knowledge bases. Its flexibility and multilingual labelling allows users construct their own data model for multi-user colaboratión. Like on Wikidata, users can interact with their data using SPARQL, a powerful query language. It is ideal for projects with máquina and human readable data. Held on Tue 28 Jun 2022 5:30pm-6:30pm India Standard Time (1200-1300 UTC) English 🤍 Recorded by Frederick Noronha (FN).

What Happens When You Type en.wikipedia.org? Effie Mouzeli and Alexandros Kosiaris, Wikimedia Foundation What happens when you type en.wikipedia.org? One of the most popular interview questions we have been asked quite a few times. But what about what happens on the server side? What happens on our end? At Wikimedia, we run the world’s favourite encyclopædia and one of the top 5 websites of the Internet! In our talk, we will describe the architecture of Wikipedia, how routers, load balancers, caching, a bit more caching, message queues, databases, microservices, and containers are pieced together to serve you, and how open source plays a master role in it. Furthermore, we will briefly talk about our transition from a monolith, to service-oriented architecture and microservices, to migrating them to Kubernetes. Wikipedia is a very good example of a complex system; joining this talk will help you demystify one in an understandable way.

🤍 Wikipedia User Experience (UX) is one of the most important aspects to guarantee the project's future. What is striking about the Wikipedian community is that those editors who entered the project in 2007 are still among the most active, while it is difficult to attract new committed editors. In fact, many studies have focused on understanding why editors leave the project, what causes them to stay and how their interactions continue to motivate them. However, could this knowledge help us in finding the necessary changes for Wikipedia to continue evolving? What can we do as Wikipedians? In this presentation I want to introduce and discuss the possible hurdles editor engagement encounters and its more effective solutions. First, I will provide a brief state of art. Second, I propose discussing topics such as how technological design change occurs, which I believe it should be treated as an entire community matter and be as inclusive as possible. It may be that Wikipedia values are empowering editors to overcome their difficulties, but at the same they set a high expectation on many levels, and this might stop specific types of contributors from joining. Some might think that UX is not critical. After all, Wikipedia gets better everyday. However, I believe that by understanding the user experience of all the potential users could help communities grow bigger and more diverse. Third and finally, as part of the findings of my doctoral research, I want to present a list of suggestions and principles to work on, such as overcoming the distinction between editor and reader in order to stimulate different types of contributors. I believe that the more diverse and plural the community becomes, the easier it will be to share the knowledge and connect all humanity - the ubuntu way forward.

Testing Encyclopedias in Production Effie Mouzeli and Giuseppe Lavagetto, Wikimedia Foundation At Wikimedia, we are running one of the top 15 traffic websites on the internet! Our infrastructure is powered by free software, with MediaWiki at its core. To improve performance, in 2014 we happily migrated from mod-php to Facebook's HHVM (Hip Hop virtual machine), and everything was well until September 2017: when Facebook announced that it would be dropping PHP support. This is the story of the long project to migrate our application clusters from HHVM to php-fpm, and the application itself from PHP5 to PHP7, while serving billions of page views per month. We want to share the good, the bad, the ugly, and the questionable decisions we made in order to successfully migrate and give the SRE perspective of a complex migration, broken down into small pieces. Moreover, the centerpiece of this talk is how we benefited from testing in production, which played a key role during this project. View the full SREcon20 Americas program at 🤍

Accurately forecasting revenue is crucial for making informed decisions and planning for the future, but it can be challenging for sales and operations teams. It’s traditionally been a complex, manual, and biased process that takes a lot of guesswork and repetition—and a few missteps in understanding market signals, dependencies, and noise can turn plans upside down. What we covered: - The basics of time series modeling for analyst and operations teams and how it can be used to forecast revenue. - The common challenges that arise when predicting sales revenue and practical tips for overcoming them. - Best practices for cleaning, preparing, and exploring your data to improve forecasting accuracy, including how to identify key drivers and use them to make more informed predictions. - How to share your insights and models with your team and apply them to make informed data-driven decisions.

Bigtop is the Apache project for Infrastructure Engineers and Data Scientists who is looking for packaging, testing, and configuration of the open-source Big Data components. Its latest version 1.5.0 has been released in Dec 2020 and more fully supports Arm64 as a Big Data stack. From a real-world use case of Bigtop, the Analytics/Data-Engineering team at the Wikimedia Foundation has been collaborating with the project to move from its Cloudera CDH 5.x Hadoop distribution to Apache Bigtop. In this session, the speakers provides an overview of new features implementation, the recent upgrade and some basic usages from users' point of view. On the other hand, it's not easy to move away from CDH in the Wikimedia ecosystem where several tools gravitate around Hadoop-related projects. Then the co-speakers will also give a brief introduction of the work done with upstream to support the Wikimedia's use case and the migration/upgrade plan devised.

The Wikimedia Foundation is a non-profit and charitable organization driven by a vision of a world where every human can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. Each month Wikimedia sites serve over 18 billion page views to 500 million unique visitors around the world. Among the many resources offered by Wikimedia is a public-facing API that provides low-latency, programmatic access to full-history content and meta-data, in a variety of formats. Commonly, results from this system are the product of computationally intensive transformations, and must be pre-generated and persisted to meet latency expectations. Unsurprisingly, there are numerous challenges to providing low-latency storage of such a massive data-set, in a demanding, globally distributed environment. In this talk, we will cover the Wikimedia content API, and it's use of Apache Cassandra, a massively-scalable distributed database, as storage for a diverse and growing set of use-cases. Trials, tribulations, and triumphs, of both a development and operational nature will be discussed.
