DBLP to Wikidata: Populating Scholarly Articles in Wikidata

Abstract

Scholarly data and resulting scientometrics play a vital role in the scientific community. Wikidata is a widely used knowledge graph with more than 110M entities and a comprehensive tooling ecosystem. Publishing scholarly data in Wikidata will make them more accessible and easier to integrate with existing knowledge. Such contributions will generally have to be made with the collaboration and support of the research community. This work is a small step towards that direction. This demo introduces a tool and a method for adding our scholarly articles to Wikidata utilizing data from DBLP. We also provide authors with a tool to enhance Wikidata with associated entities, such as missing co-authors or conference proceeding entities, through a collaborative effort.
