Today is World #Biodiversity day! In about 2,5 hours (10.00 UTC) @siobhan_leachman, @Andrawaag and I will stream editing #Wikipedia about species. Likely, we will cross paths with #iNaturalist, #Wikidata and #Wikimedia Commons along the way and possibly discuss what a minimal viable stub about a species is. Watch on PeerTube: https://vid.northbound.online/w/bpE1E4rYP2ZKVA77kMDosn

@magnusmanske Only a "suggested" (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q62026391) one. It is the classical suggestion flag? The fact that you can see your username is because of https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Ricordisamoa/WikidataTrust.js

Very cool! The P2085 however would also require P7783, see:

Thrilled to share that our manuscript "SpectriPy: Enhancing Cross-Language Mass Spectrometry Data Analysis with R and Python" was published in @joss 🥳

This was a great community effort! Big thanks 🙌 to all contributors including the @EuBIC_MS hackathon participants!

Also, thanks to the editor @danielskatz for handling the manuscript!

And of course thanks to our great reviewers @adafede @AnthonyBarente for their suggestions and discussion!

last night I submitted our #openscience preprint about @wdscholia, @wikidata, and #chemistry that appeared on ChemRxiv earlier this week to @chemistry

@jscaux, already too long ago, I mentioned CiTO annotations and I included them in the submission. I hope you are still interested in trying to get them appear in the final published article (if it passed peer review, of course)

I'm between jobs and open for short-term missions until the end of the year :) . I like jumping in old #opensource code bases, tackling tech debt, working on #governance, and trying out new things! Get in touch :)

Lately I've mostly been working in #Java and #Rust. Based in #Leipzig, open for in-person or remote freelancing gigs.

The slides for the talk "The current state of the Digital Botanical Gardens Initiative" @dbgi are up at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15420634 .

@tiagolubiana please don't :)

Seriously, we welcome all peer review. this article wraps up several years of work, but also just a starting point. There are million of chemicals undocumented or insufficiently documenten.

Honestly, I could easily argue myself that the current approach is not scalable, something we did not really discuss, but also because there is other literature looking into that aspect

Hi. I'm a scientist and programmer based in Basel, Switzerland. I'm a long-time advocate of #OpenSource and #OpenScience and am the primary developer of the #RDKit.

#introduction

very exciting that the Journal of Cheminformatics (@jcheminf.biomedcentral.com) authors continue to submit CiTO annotation :) https://doi.org/10.1186/s13321-025-01009-0

That brings it to 24 journal articles and 35 preprints. I have updated the CiTO overview in Wikidata/Scholia: https://scholia.toolforge.org/cito/

@daily_lotus is a bot on a mission:

Every day, it toots a real-world natural product — a molecule found in 🌿 plants, 🍄 fungi, 🐛 animals, or 🦠 bacteria — straight from the depths of Wikidata.

Each post includes:

🧪 the molecule's name and structure,

📸 a pic of the organism it was found in,

📚 a reference to the scientific publication documenting the occurrence .
