rove.wiki) is working as as a Wikipedian in Residence in August 2024 with the Science for Technological Innovation (SfTI) National Science Challenge headquartered in Callaghan Innovation, Wellington (Science for Technological Innovation (Q129525495)) to upload video and images to Commons, improve Wikidata on researchers and publications, cite published research to improve relevant Wikipedia articles, and create new articles as needed.
SfTI created a short documentary and series of video shorts hosted on Vimeo by Frank Productions (Q129887047) that they have released under an open licence.
These videos are now available in Wikimedia Commons for sharing, remixing, and reuse in Wikipedia. Excerpts from them can be used in numerous Wikipedia articles to illustrate concepts like deep learning or mussel aquaculture.
The kaitiaki, the sensor, and the scientist has been selected as Wikimedia Commons Media of the Day for 6 November 2024, and will feature on the main page of Commons for 24 hours.
(Note: Wikidata generally uses the full name as given in author lists on publications; Wikipedia will use the most-commonly-referred-by name—for example, the one in a university staff listing. The Scholia link shows the number of publications currently in Wikidata and properly linked to that person's Wikidata ID.)
