Wikidata

Wikidata here is short for the community, not just the database itself, but also involves all the tools around it, such as Scholia.

Wikidata is a node in the Linked Open Data cloud. It has a rich model of statements, which are not unlike nanopublications. A key interoperability layer is the RDF export, allowing SPARQL queries. The data is licenced/waived under CCZero, and trivial to integrate. It already is has a lot of information about SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19.

Goals

Here's a number of possible ideas (and more on the Wikidata:WikiProject COVID-19 page):

  • better Scholia visualization of relevant data
  • better Wikidata model for clinical trials
  • work on properties of clinical trials databases outside clinicaltrials.gov
  • model for antibodies
  • tools for faster, more efficient annotation with research papers with "main subject"
