Las humanidades digitales en el antropoceno
by Alex Gil 16 Aug '14

16 Aug '14

[Apologies for the duplication] Dear all, I just published my translation of Bethany Nowviskie's talk at DH2014 into Spanish <http://elotroalex.webfactional.com/las-humanidades-digitales-en-el-antropoc…>. I heard many folks outside of the auditorium who wished they could understand more of the talk, since they understood enough to sense the vitality of what was being said. I hope my translation can inspire some of you in other language traditions to take the trouble to translate it for other publics. It took me about 1 hour a day for a couple of weeks using markdown. Best, A.

Estudio detalla que en twitter hay dos superdialectos del español
by Yasmín S. Portales Machado 15 Aug '14

Una web cubana reporta el trabajo de Bruno Gonçalves, de la Universidad de Toulon (Francia) y David Sánchez, del Instituto de Física Interdisciplinar y Sistemas Complejos (IFISC, CSIC-UIB) en <http://www.cubadebate.cu/etiqueta/espa%C3%B1a/> España sobre el uso de la “lengua del Quijote” en twitter. Como es usual por acá, no dan la fuente, aunque seguro no hicieron el reporte. ¿Alguien me pasa el link al informe original? http://www.cubadebate.cu/?p=453747 PD: Prefiero el término castellano, pero… Yasmín S.

Ebola research: crowdsourcing access and license type
by Ernesto Priego 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

Dear all, I hope you don't mind my sharing this information to the list. Last Wednesday I shared a dataset of 497 bibliographic entries of scientific articles mentioning the keyword ‘Ebola’. Each entry links to the article/paper/output itself. http://epriego.wordpress.com/2014/08/06/ebola-crowdsourcing-type-of-access-… I shared the dataset to crowdsource the type of access (open/paywalled) of each paper and the type of license of each paper (All Rights Reserved/Some Rights Reserved etc.). By Friday last week the World Health Organisation had declared Ebola an international health emergency. Until now about 40% of the papers have the additional data required. The intention is to complete the dataset, offering not only the main value of a list of scientific articles on Ebola, but information about how many of those are available without restrictions. Crowdsourcing is a task dear to the digital humanities, and so is online publishing. If any of you reading this could help working with us on the dataset it will be appreciated. Even doing just one is a lot of help. Follow the link above to reach the online spreadsheet.

Wikimania 2015, Mexico City
by Ernesto Priego 11 Aug '14

11 Aug '14

Hello everyone, This last weekend I attended Wikimania 2014 in London, UK. Wikimania is the annual conference of the Wikimedia Foundation. 2000 people (and 200 volunteers) attended. More than 20k tweets tagged with #wikimania2014 were posted over the weekend. It was announced that Mexico City will be the host city for Wikimania 2015; it will be held at the same venue as the last DH meeting organised by RedHD. This Wikimania had a very strong academic presence, with Jimmy Wales stressing many times the importance of open access to academic and scientific research. The "open scholarship" stream was very popular and many key players in open access scholarship/open access publishing were present as both audience and presenters. At the Comics Grid blog we published a post by Cameron Neylon on what academia can learn from Wikimania; I hope you can find some time to read it: http://blog.comicsgrid.com/2014/08/wikimania-we-need-to-choose-the-main-str… I know Ernesto Priani is in touch with Iván from Wikimedia México; it seems to me it would be very important to build on what was achieved in London this year in terms of bridging the Wikipedia momevent with the open scholarship movement and ensure that Mexican academics interested in the wider, open dissemination of research on the Web have a space within Wikimania 2015. It would be great if RedHD could have a significant presence (through logos, maybe a stand as well?) at the event in Mexico too. Thoughts?
