Till GrallertLast week, I pushed metadata for some 700+ Ottoman Turkish periodicals published mainly between the Young Turk Revolution of 1908 and the end of the empire to <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikidata</a>. Data is based on Baykal's wonderful index (<a href="https://doi.org/10.1163/9789004394889" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://doi.org/10.1163/9789004394889</a>). Together with the Arabic periodicals added earlier this year, coverage of periodical history beyond English, French or German on Wikidata is pretty good. Thanks to these efforts, English is now severely under represented (percentage of periodicals represented on Wikidata): <a href="https://w.wiki/ArRb" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://w.wiki/ArRb</a>. Arabic is the second most prominent language (after English) and Ottoman the ninth. Swedish is a surprising third and, given the difference in the number of speakers, quite astonishing that there were at least c.2750 Swedish newspapers published before 1930 compared to the grand total of c.3000 Arabic titles in the same period.<a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/MultilingualDH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MultilingualDH</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/PeriodicalStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PeriodicalStudies</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/dh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dh</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DigitalHumanities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalHumanities</a>

Till Grallert<a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikidata</a> currently holds information on almost 20000 periodicals published worldwide before 1930: <a href="https://w.wiki/A6s8" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://w.wiki/A6s8</a>. But, as one would suspect, quality of data and coverage differs widely between regions. So, if you work on periodicals, particularly those published outside the Global North and major centres of publication, consider adding your knowledge to Wikidata for others to link to and discover these awesome resources.<a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/PeriodicalStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PeriodicalStudies</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/multilingualDH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#multilingualDH</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/CrowdSourcing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CrowdSourcing</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DecoloniseKnowledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DecoloniseKnowledge</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DH</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DigitalHumanities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalHumanities</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/LOD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LOD</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/SemanticWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SemanticWeb</a>

Till GrallertMy dive into <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/SPARQL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SPARQL</a> and the <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikidata</a> environment continues and I just discovered some of the wonderful tools hosted on <a href="https://toolforge.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://toolforge.org/</a>. Here is a map of all periodicals published in <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Palestine</a> (defined by a rectangular bounding box) before 1930: <a href="https://w.wiki/9u$o" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://w.wiki/9u$o</a>.

Till GrallertI'm rather new to SPARQL and equal parts smitten by the power of built-in visualisations and frustrated by the state of examples and documentation of more complex queries for those of us not overtly familiar with with other query languages.Anyhow, if you are interested in the most popular titles of Arabic periodicals until 1930, here they are: <a href="https://w.wiki/9nxE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://w.wiki/9nxE</a>.TL;DR: Reform (الاصلاح), Liberty (الحرية), The Nation (الوطن), The Morning (الصباح), Education (المعارف) take the crown.<a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/PeriodicalStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PeriodicalStudies</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B5%D8%AD%D8%A7%D9%81%D8%A9_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%B1%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#الصحافة_العربية</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/MultilingualDH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MultilingualDH</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DH</a>

Till GrallertI am excited to share some brief news on the recent progress we made in pushing bibliographic data on all <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Arabic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Arabic</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Periodicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Periodicals</a> published before 1930 and their editors to <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Wikidata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikidata</a>: we did it! With a bit of SPARQL one can now browse our data set from <a href="https://projectjaraid.github.io/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://projectjaraid.github.io/</a> as a graph (<a href="https://tinyurl.com/jaraid-graph" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://tinyurl.com/jaraid-graph</a>), table (<a href="https://w.wiki/9rDP" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://w.wiki/9rDP</a>) or a map (<a href="https://w.wiki/9o3Z" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://w.wiki/9o3Z</a>).More detailed descriptions of our effort will follow in the form of blog posts (and potentially a longer thread).Holding data beyond <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/HathiTrust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HathiTrust</a>, <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/OCLC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OCLC</a> and the German <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/ZDB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZDB</a> have not been pushed yet.<a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/PeriodicalStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PeriodicalStudies</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/MultilingualDH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MultilingualDH</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/ArabicPeriodical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArabicPeriodical</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Arabic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Arabic</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Ottoman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottoman</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Mahjar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mahjar</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B5%D8%AD%D8%A7%D9%81%D8%A9_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%B1%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#الصحافة_العربية</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DigitalHumanities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalHumanities</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/dh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dh</a>
