Linked-Data Authority Support (WP2)

• Qa Sinopia Collaboration - Meetings with Stanford will only occur on an as needed basis. Authority request issues: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1 (prioritized based on "important" authorities and ease of completion)
  • 2023-03-09
    • Steven met with Nancy and Justin. Agreed to prioritize vocabs where we want to move away from cache.
    • Up to now we have avoided Wikidata lookup because it isn't amenable to caching. But, now we are shifting to direct search then it might be worth rethinking that.
    • Expected sprint not before late Summer / early Fall. Nancy concerned about getting id.loc.gov: relationships, note types and RBMS vocabs. Asked whether these be used as a proof-of-concept to see how much effort the sprint will need?
      • Norway made a successful pull request for the BIBBI vocabs (https://lookup.ld4l.org/authority_list)
      • TODO Steven find the pull request.
    • TODO Steven to create a set of issue for any cache-based lookups that are not used in our supported profiles
• Best Practices for Authoritative Data working group (focus on Change Management)
  • 2023-02-02
    • Deciding how activity types meet the need of auth management with consideration of existing practice
