 Helo, Helo. Bolehkah anda mendengar saya? Okey, bagus, bagus. Hai, nama saya Lici. Saya dari komuniti saya. Saya gembira ada beberapa orang di sini. Okey, jadi komuniti saya. Saya memandu komuniti saya. Kita sebenarnya seorang organisasi non-profit yang mempercaya mengenai cerita setiap hari untuk orang setiap hari untuk mempunyai mempunyai. Jadi, kami percaya bahawa ia penting untuk melakukan ini kerana kami percaya bahawa cerita ini dari orang setiap hari mempunyai sebuah alasan untuk membawa orang bersama. Mempunyai sebuah alasan untuk membawa orang bersama dan komuniti bersama untuk datang ke depan. Jadi, saya bermakna... Ya, jadi, selama selama 4-5 tahun, kami telah mempercaya bahawa kawasan di Queenstown, keadaan sebuah orang yang lebih awal di Singapura, untuk mengambilkan beberapa kisah dan artifaks mereka untuk meletakkan keadaan komuniti kita. Jadi, kami bekerja dengan Wikimedia Foundation tahun ini dan tahun depan untuk sebenarnya menghidupkan beberapa kisah dari kisah kita. Jadi, sebelum saya pergi ke depan, mungkin saya boleh berkongsi sedikit tentang apa yang kami lakukan mengenai video. Kami dari 1964, kemudian kemudian, sampai sekarang. Kami bekerja di sini selama 18 tahun. Saya berada di sini selama 13 tahun. Jadi, banyak lelaki saya ada. Saya juga tidak tahu sebab saya berada di sini selama lama. Sekarang, hal orang menjaga kisah yang banyak lagi yang lelaki selamatkan keadaan kita. Hal yang kita berniat untuk menghabiskan keadaan. Sekarang anak-anak tidak akan berjaya. Sebelumnya, orang-orang seperti diri, keluarga, ada apa-apa yang berlaku. Sekarang akan rasa tidak teruk. Sebelumnya akan rasa teruk. Maksudnya, kemudian keadaan syarikat akan menjadi seperti ini. Mereka akan berjaya di syarikat. Mereka berjaya di syarikat selama selama selama selama selama selama selama selama selama selama selama selama. Singapura telah berjalan terlalu cepat. Jadi, kami juga lupa cara kami datang. Kami telah kehilangan cerita kami. Dan sesuatu yang perlu dilakukan untuk menjelaskan mereka. Orang-orang seperti kami harus dilanggar dan belajar cerita kami. Kami tidak boleh teruskan, dikira-kira menjelaskan untuk tidak kehilangan cerita kami. Orang-orang saya sebenarnya cuba menjelaskan keadaan sosial untuk orang-orang mereka. Kami adalah memberi komuniti yang datang dari semua kerjaya. Seluruh keadaan, seluruh keadaan, seluruh keadaan. Kami menggunakan Orang-orang saya sebagai platform untuk menjelaskan keadaan syarikat tersebut. Saya rasa ia bagus untuk mempunyai keadaan, dalam masa depan, untuk dapat menjelaskan keadaan, dalam cara yang betul. Bukan hanya kisah-kisah tapi juga kisah-kisah dari keadaan kami. Itu beritahu kisah-kisah dari kawan-kawan kami ke kawan-kawan kawan-kawan kawan-kawan kami. Menjelaskan kisah-kawan keadaan ini adalah sesuatu yang banyak orang tidak terlalu fokus pada. Saya berharap bahawa semua kisah-kisah ini dan semua kisah-kisah ini yang kami telah menjelaskan di keadaan. Sebelum membuat hari ini, kami akan menjelaskan keadaan syarikat atau menjelaskan keadaan untuk apa yang akan menjadi keadaan syarikat tersebut untuk keadaan orang yang berlaku dalam keadaan syarikat ini dan keadaan masa depan. Seperti yang anda lihat, kami telah menjelaskan keadaan dengan keadaan syarikat dan syarikat untuk menjelaskan kisah-kisah mereka dan faham apa yang mereka menjelaskan. Apa yang kisah-kisah mereka adalah. Sejak tahun 2008, kami telah menjelaskan untuk 1.5 tahun. Dan untuk kami, dalam keadaan syarikat, kami sebenarnya mengambil keadaan syarikat yang mengenai. Jadi, kadang-kadang apabila anda fikir keadaan syarikat, anda mungkin akan fikir bahawa keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, bagaimanapun, kadang-kadang, keadaan syarikat kami rasa, mereka tidak mencari tidak banyak keadaan syarikat yang mengenai. Jadi, banyak kali ini, kami sendiri memperkenalkan dan menginterak dengan keadaan syarikat keadaan syarikat yang sebenarnya membantu kami untuk lebih baik memahami keadaan syarikat dan keadaan. Jadi, kami rasa keadaan syarikat untuk kami adalah sebuah proses yang mengenai keadaan syarikat yang memperkenalkan, yang berlaku dengan cara untuk membuat, cara untuk memahami keadaan syarikat. Jadi, apa yang kami lakukan? Kita sebenarnya mengenai cerita ini dan memperkenalkan beberapa cerita ini ke apa yang kami nampak performa, performa keadaan syarikat. Jadi, ia mungkin menjadi, untuk contoh, keadaan syarikat mereka adalah seorang yang membawa orang keadaan syarikat mereka untuk belajar lebih banyak tentang apa yang mereka menikmati, apa keadaan syarikat mereka dan keadaan syarikat mereka dengan kawan mereka, apa yang mereka makan di keadaan syarikat. Jadi, untuk kami, kami rasa ia penting untuk sebenarnya mengambil beberapa cerita ini dan sebenarnya berkongsi dan memperkenalkan itu dalam keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat. Jadi, ini apa yang kami nampak performa keadaan syarikat. Dan kami juga percaya bahawa keadaan syarikat itu emosional. Jadi, ia bukan hanya sesuatu tentang keadaan syarikat, tetapi ia sesuatu yang kami mempunyai ada kongsi yang terdengar dengan objek. Jadi, walaupun keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, sesuatu yang penting, emosional. Mereka sebenarnya menolakkan kita, menolakkan kita keadaan syarikat kita dan keadaan syarikat di dalam keadaan syarikat. Jadi, hanya pada keselamatan, keadaan syarikat kami untuk berkongsi dan memperkenalkan cerita orang biasa untuk keadaan syarikat. Jadi, bagaimana kita lakukannya? Kita sebenarnya lakukannya dalam 3 keadaan. Jadi, nomor 1, kita mengenai cerita ini. Jadi, kita pergi ke kota-kota untuk mempunyai keadaan syarikat dan keadaan syarikat untuk sebenarnya menolakkan keadaan syarikat dan belajar lebih banyak tentang apa yang mereka lakukannya. Jadi, apa yang kita lakukannya adalah kita juga menghubungi keadaan syarikat dengan mereka untuk sebenarnya menghubungi beberapa cerita ini. Kemudian, kita mengambil cerita ini. Seperti yang saya lakukannya, kita mengambil keadaan syarikat dan keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat untuk menghubungi orang setiap hari dan menerima keadaan syarikat. Kita juga mengambil keadaan syarikat keadaan syarikat dalam keadaan syarikat dan keadaan syarikat. Jadi, sebab kita tahu dan menghubungi cerita ini, kita merangkau orang mulai memperkenalkan beberapa orang ini dan pembelian syarikat. Mereka mulai menjadi lebih warna. Dan sebenarnya, ini adalah awal membuat keadaan syarikat. Kita memang mahu menghubungi keadaan syarikat untuk membawa orang bersama keadaan syarikat. Jadi, ini adalah prinsip kami keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat, keadaan syarikat dan keadaan syarikat. Ini adalah beberapa panggilan kita. Jadi, selama 4-5 tahun, kita sebenarnya melakukannya lebih dari 1,600 kota. Kita mempunyai lebih dari 1,500 kota dan pengalaman dan juga lebih dari 2,225 kota, gambar dan objek dalam keadaan kita. Jadi, sedikit lebih tentang apa yang kita lakukannya. Jadi, pertama, kita lakukannya keadaan syarikat dan keadaan syarikat. Dan apa yang kita maksudkan keadaan syarikat dan keadaan syarikat adalah sebenarnya panggilan yang menghubungi keadaan syarikat, penyelamat, pesan, dan persenjian organisasi secara keadaan dalam proses keadaan syarikat. Jadi, apabila kita mengelakkan keadaan syarikat dalam keadaan syar atau keadaan syar. Untuk kita, kami rasa semua orang mempunyai segala-galanya cerita yang dikatakan dan bagaimana ia dilakukan. Jadi, beberapa contoh yang kita telah lakukannya. Kita telah lakukannya daripada keadaan Kredo ke Grave. Jadi, ini sebenarnya sebuah kisah dalam 10 keadaan syarikat di Singapura. Apa yang kita lakukannya? Keadaan syarikat bermakna keadaan syarikat keadaan syarikat, penyelamat, pesan, keadaan syarikat dan penyelamat. Jadi, apa yang kita lakukannya? Kita sebenarnya telah melakukannya banyak orang dari semua keadaan dan sebenarnya berdiri dalam sebuah kisah ini. Dari itu, kita juga ada Singapura. Jadi ini sebuah kisah tentang keadaan syarikat keadaan di Singapura. Macam mana mereka bergerak ke Singapura dan bagaimana mereka menerima dan bagaimana tempat lain yang mereka panggil, bagaimana mereka buat Singapura ke rumah kedua itu. Jadi, ini sebuah publikal dan terakhir, keadaan Singapura ikan-ikan dan tahun tahun setiap tahun. Jadi, publikal kami mengajar Extreme Tenang di Singapura sekeliling. Jika kita membeli keadaan syarikat dasarnya, kami juga memilih Inkan media di rumah keadaan selama 12 tahun keadaan kita. Jadi, kita percaya ia penting sebab keadaan syarikat keadaan membantu kami urutkan cerita-esan ini keadaan sebaik Kathryn dan eksperiensi, supaya orang-orang lebih... supaya lebih orang-orang lebih tergantung pada penonton yang lebih besar. Jadi, kita ada sekarang 12 perjalanan perniagaan. Saya bermakna jika anda bergantung, kita sebenarnya bekerja dengan Wikimedia untuk melepaskan tiga perniagaan ini. Itu sebabnya yang berlaku ini malam ini dan dua lagi dalam dua atau tiga hari nanti. Jadi jika anda ada peluang, anda boleh menangis untuk perniagaan kita. Jadi ter hottest itulah masyarakat yang mempunyai jenis perniagaan ini untuk mengambil perniagaan kita, membincangkan perniagaan kita, mengambil perniagaan kita dan banyak orang mengambil perniagaan sendiri dan mereka ada kisah tambahan yang menarik untuk menyikakan. Jadi bagokal dari itu, kami juga memperkenalkan perniagaan para perniagaan. Jadi segera sekarang, sehingga kita berada di perniagaan ini, kita sebenarnya membuat perjalanan pembentangan saya, Festival Komuniti saya. Ini sebenarnya pembentangan Gronok yang mempunyai orang-orang, tempat dan praktis yang membuat komuniti kita mengandungi dan mengandungi. Jadi, bagaimanapun, kita dapat melihat di sini, pada hari ini, kita sebenarnya membuat perjalanan kepada Pasir Panjang Hoseo Centre kita, yang berhasil dari 9-5 p.m. pada malam-malam pada malam. Mereka sebenarnya mengandungi semuanya, kacau, kacau, kacau, supaya ia dapat ke pembentangan kita awal-awal setiap hari. Jadi, kita sebenarnya memperkenalkan beberapa pembelajaran, dan belajar lebih banyak mengapa mereka melakukan apa yang mereka lakukan, dan apa yang beberapa pembentangan mereka mengandungi untuk bekerja dalam sebuah pembentangan. Selain itu, kita juga memulakan pengalaman komuniti lain, seperti FB Open, di mana kita sebenarnya memerlukan pintu di belakang. Untuk menemukan lebih banyak apa yang mereka lakukan di belakang pembentangan ini, banyak pembentangan kita, mereka adalah pembelajaran komuniti yang berbeza, yang kita sebenarnya ingin berkongsi dengan semua orang. Jadi, Makkan Makkari juga adalah juga sebuah pembentangan di mana kita dapat pembentangan rumah dari seluruh hidup, untuk memperkenalkan orang ke rumah mereka, untuk berkongsi tentang apa yang mereka pembentangan, dan pembentangan pembentangan mereka sendiri, juga tentang kisah mereka datang ke Singapura, bagaimana mereka menerima. Kita juga memulakan keadaan keadaan keadaan berlebihan yang dipanggil saya sebagai seorang pembelajaran saya. Kita belajar lebih banyak tentang percuma dan belajar dari tenaga Singapura, dan bagi itu, kita juga memiliki komuniti di musim, kalari dan awal yang dipercuma. Jadi, salah satu pembentangan kita yang lebih besar yang kita percuma adalah bijang Kuinstown saya. Jadi, untuk Museum Microsoft, juga daripada Museum yang membuat banyak... Kita membuat sekolah untuk membuat galeri heritage. Kita juga banyak perniagaan untuk membuat kerja untuk membuat kawasan yang sendiri. Dan ini sebenarnya adalah tempat yang penting kerana mereka menghubungi mempunyai ramai dikelihatan untuk keadaan kisah mempunyai pembantu, memperoleh negosyerti dan mengubah identiti dan network sosial. So idea of a collaborative space in Singapore's first satellite town, Queenstown. So Queenstown Nui Huang over here is basically there's Queenstown, the Queen. It was actually first mooted more than a decade ago where the first, where the town centre was undergoing massive redevelopment. So sacred sites like the Margaret Drive Hocker Centre, the Queenstown Riemann Prison and the Queenstown Cinema and Bowling Alley were progressively dismantled. So uprooting at every location of long time residence has actually altered neighbour to neighbour interactions and reduced the cohesiveness of the community. So actually nestled in a modern shop house within the historic Tanggling Town Estate. My Queenstown Museum chronicles the towns passed through its travels through of old photographs and objects. The shop house is Singapore's first independent community museum where residents take the front seat in the planning and negotiation with state agencies, co-curating the programs and exhibitions, maintaining the day-to-day operations and funding the space. So our museum object is ready to represent the tree of social memories in Queenstown. It recognises reinforces and affirms the people, places and practices which make Queenstown Queenstown and also connects people to the social networks in the community. So as the areas currently undergoing redevelopment works, our museum is actually moving to a new location which is stated to open end of this year. So whenever we do something, any project at all, we always involve everybody. And we mean everybody is ready, everybody, residents, community stakeholders, governmental bodies, contractors and my community. And within my community itself, we actually have many teams involved. So volunteers are really the heart of my community. We have over 1,000 volunteers that actually support us in all our efforts. So for example, we have the cultural mapping team. The cultural mapping team actually are the first contacts with the residents. They go door-to-door to be friend with the residents and the shopkeepers. They conduct surveys, oral history interviews with them. As well as sometimes when we are chatting with them about their own stories, they might say, oh, I have one photo from this. Do you want this? Then, okay, we want it, so we'll take it from them. So that's how we actually do artifacts collection as well. And that's also how we start mapping networks and some of the everyday routines of the residents. So we also have an archive team. So actually, we have an archive team member here today with us, Siew Chin. So she's actually one of our volunteers from the archive team who actually helps us to catalog, document and maintain the archives. So what she does is to organise also to be part of artifact collection drives, the digitisation process, the cataloging, the oral history interviews as well as to maintain the storage area and the artifacts in the storage areas. We also have a community design team. So this team actually takes charge of planning and designing the museum that eventually comes out. So these groups of volunteers usually go to engage the community about what they like to see in the museum. What kind of concept would they like to see the museum to be like? What colours, what are the artifacts that they feel are most significant? What's the narrative that they want to portray in the museum? So that's what the community design team does. And what they do is they also ideate the design and narrative and to prototype, fabricate and install everything. So these are really entirely volunteer lab. So lastly, we also have our community museum team. The museum team usually organises events. They take care of the everyday opening and closing of the museum, the tidiness of the museum, they organise guided tours, programmes, exhibitions at our museum and they always interact with the participants at our museum to find out more about what they do. So as you can see, people really form the heart at my community. So oftentimes we feel that it's important that we organise regular capacity building workshops for our volunteers such as oral history interview workshops, cultural mapping workshops, as well as exhibition and curation workshops so that everyone is well prepared to actually interview the residents, to collect their stories and to maintain archives in our museum. And of course celebrations and overseas retreats. So we organise many of these because we find that volunteers really form the heart of our community and we really need to empower the everyday people to be able to do what we do to really take the community forward. So our museum has achieved these objectives. It's a repository of our social memories in Queenstown. It recognises, reinforces and affirms the people, places and practices which make Queenstown Queenstown and connect people to the social networks in the community. So these are just some of the sentiments from the people who have been at Queenstown. So it's really a very touching, if you were there, you would really see everyone really feeling very sentimental over this whole place because what you see over here is no longer there anymore. So it's really very heartfelt. Okay, so now going to the bulk of what we are here for today which is our community archives. So what exactly is a community archive? So behind every community museum is a robust community archives. But we all understand what archives mean but what exactly is a community archive is actually an archive where give one moment which is actually a by-product of human it's actually, sorry. It's archives created, accumulated, described and preserved by individuals and community groups themselves who desire to document their cultural heritage based on shared experiences, interests and or identities. So oftentimes you can imagine just in layman terms it's really a group of people coming together. There's something that they like together. There's something that they treasure. They decide they want to keep it. They want to build a collection together because these things mean something to them. And oftentimes these takes place without the traditional intervention of formerly trained archivists, historians and librarians. So this is what really distinguishes a community archive from a typical archive. So our objective of a community archive is really this form. So for posterity, we want our artifacts, objects and oral history interviews to have a home which they can be passed to future generations. We want it to be accessible so residents must be able to access the archives. So the participation process must be simple yet professional. Also community centric, the development and maintenance of the archives must be collaborative to imbu a stick in the archives and lastly has to be financially sustainable. So who are involved, our current archives are maintained by residents, heritage practitioners and volunteers who are working in museums and libraries in Singapore and also those that do not work in these places. So we have a lot of volunteers who are really just interested and passionate about heritage. They just love Queenstown so much. A lot of them actually live in Queenstown. They want to contribute something to the community. So just a little bit more about this place Queenstown which we have been dwelling a lot about. Our target participants includes residents, shopkeepers, volunteers and other community stakeholders who have lived, worked, played and operate in older housing estates like Queenstown. So among these older estates many have been affected by this thing called the Selective On-Block Redevelopment Scheme where it's a government policy to renew older housing estates. So for example the CERS, we call this CERS at Tanglin Hotsaw 31 HDB flats housing flats comprising close to 3,500 flats and more than 200 hawkers and market stalls, eating houses, demolish and relocated to Dawson. So when this happened over 7,000 residents have been moving out steadily and this actually signals an end of ERA at one of Singapore's pioneer housing estates. So to keep these community networks intact so volunteers have been befriending elderly residents and conducting numerous artifacts photographs and oral history interviews from them. So besides from using these artifacts for our community museum these items are also used as icebreakers for residents to remember about the past and to bond with one another. So we realise that these archives actually provide a basis for social programs to help the elderly residents to dimension to remember life experiences memories and stories of the past. So research has shown that doing so can actually help people dimension in a better sense of competence as well as confidence to do what they do because they can do they have shown that they can actually perform something with the skill that they have. So we will be displaying some of these items in my Queenstown Museum when it opens in end 2023. So what objects do we collect? We collect objects which document the history, cultural and heritage of Queenstown in its environments. We collect objects which celebrate and respond to the community of Queenstown and objects which provide inspiration for learning and reflecting on place and social history. So these are what some of the items we collect objects and artifacts, maps government records, oral history interviews and old photographs. So these are just some you can see over here and we have also started actually uploading some of these onto Wikimedia Commons. It's a slow and steady process but we'll get there. We have over 2,000 artifacts to upload. So how do we collect? There's a few steps in the collection process. So there are four ways which we collect it. One is through door to door. So when we go door to door it starts with the cultural mapping team befriending with the elderly residents in Queenstown. Dan these residents usually born with our volunteer cultural mappers through their recollection and discussion about Queenstown's history and heritage. Then occasionally they will really just give us because we have developed this relationship with them they will pass us some of their treasure artifacts and treasure stories over the time and they actually kindly donate it to our museum. We also organise artifact collection drives where we send out posters and flyers different languages and distribute it to residents in Queenstown. So additionally we also have walking donations and also emails to my community. So for us what we feel that before the objects are ascension they actually access for its cultural significance and we don't just have one committee that does this we actually invite any resident who is part of Queenstown and has who is interested in Queenstown to actually have a stake in this decision. So so there's a 5-point system based on these 6 categories. So historical value, social value geographical value verity as well as representativeness. So how representative is it about Queenstown. So everyone will have a score they can actually rate it 1 to 5 and total up. So the average score must be above a certain number before we actually accept it for ascension. So this actually allows and ensures that the community actually stays involved and they actually have a stake in the process and anyone has the veto right they can put a zero point to actually indicate that they do not want this artifact and the artifact will not be inside the archives. So this is something that for us we feel that's important to actually give every volunteer some form of decision making process in the process. So after that of course there are a lot of forms to fill so there's we need to pass them our release forms so that we can complete own acquisition or bequeath to my community. We also have object report and release forms where artifacts will be collected so artifacts will be we need to find out a few things from them like for example, what's the story behind artifact what is their subject category is it related to recreation, transport household for example as well as the simple things like the dimensions and the weight of the artifacts. So the collections data base right now is in a very huge excel sheet which is very difficult to maintain so we have over time we have slowly try to look for alternative ways to actually keep these collections so we have tried Fiksha Fiksha isn't the most intuitive for those who have used it before and of course now we are actually working with Wikimedia to use Wikibase cloud as a way to document some of our artifacts. So apart from documenting and digitizing the collection we also have oral history interviews where the archival team meets with the residents to establish the provenance and history of the artifacts then at the end we actually place these artifacts in the appropriate storage medium so whether it's a plastic sleeve or acid free box and they are later transferred and stored in my communities offsite storage space in Tamanjerong ok so just a little bit about what we have done on our Wikibase cloud instance so before that so just a brief background so we find that oftentimes the archived in Singapore our national archived in Singapore tend to document the experiences of influential powers and figures so the stories and memories of the everyday people are often underrepresented youth also find it hard to relate to these experiences giving rise to an increasingly historically disengage younger population this has also been a growing interest at least in the past 15 years suggesting that there's a growing interest among Singaporeans to reconnect with their history and their heritage yet Singapore only has one community archive maintained by my community at Queenstown so the challenges to maintaining our current archives as mentioned excel and fixture are not very useful when it comes to 2000 artifacts the front end navigation is also not very user friendly and the diminishes its use so in the maintenance of the back end it can be quite laborious and for less tax heavy volunteers it might pose an issue to them so it's no longer accessible also privacy and professionalism so most of artifacts come from residents and these often involve sensitive information which we need to find a way to actually protect and lastly sustainability so the maintenance of the physical artifacts is quite expensive so we need to find a cost efficient way to actually organize our artifacts so right now we are working with Wikimedia foundation to develop Singapore's first first one and only community archives that is community led and community managed so we want to develop a scalable and accessible collections management system based on wiki data and wiki base and for everyone to access our community archives as well as organize capacity workshops and outreach workshops to recruit and train more volunteers and make the archives sustainable so these are just some of our targets and more importantly the intangible targets where we actually hope to get people to develop a greater sense of attachment or belonging towards their neighbourhood to expand their knowledge of the neighbourhood to make new friends and also a greater involvement in media activities and learning of new skills so once again, we involve everybody and anybody in this whole process and we often do it in series of five steps which we call the design thinking process so we often empathize and engage with the community first so we learn more about what are some of the capacity what can we do, what can't we do as well as we make new friends we have actually spoken with members from Wikimedia Wikimedia Taiwan, Wikimedia, Deutschland so we actually speak with them to learn more about what are some of the things that we can do then we actually after doing so, we actually come together to build a consensus of what we want to do and objectives then we come together to ideate what are some of the ways that we can do it before prototyping and executing it so this is a constantly ongoing process which explains there's a view so the first step is always empathy so empathy first step is always empathy where we actually recruit professional archivist as well as volunteers who assist with setting up the archives so as mentioned just now we always have capacity building workshops on our history interview information management systems master classes on Wikidata and many more to actually build to help with skills transfer and to build an ownership of the archives so empathy so my committee will review similar Wikimedia projects and our existing archive material including photographs, documents and publications so from these existing material we will start establishing the best practices so right now we are actually experimenting with Wikibase cloud which is a cloud based how many of you are familiar with Wikibase cloud okay okay so Wikibase how many familiar without the cloud okay okay good so Wikibase cloud is actually a cloud based platform provider by Wikimedia Deutschland that hosts intensive of Wikibase so we actually adopted this platform because of its ease of use so you do not need any technical or programming language to actually use this platform so currently this platform is still in an invitation only kind of phase so if you are interested to use Wikibase cloud you can always write in and if it's suitable if the Wikimedia Deutschland team is suitable they actually do the software to actually try to build up your own website so let me just briefly show you guys what we have done so this is our Wikibase cloud instance so it's really just a very simple main page so it looks almost exactly like a wiki wiki page which actually is the very first step because I'm sure everybody here knows how to use wiki so regardless of each regardless of language regardless of where you are from we have this one particular interface which are very familiar to actually start learning more and browsing more about what we have so right now we have actually started uploading some of our artifacts so for example let's say I'm looking for vinyl records about Quintetown so I'll just simply search vinyl records and what comes out is actually the various vinyl records that we have uploaded so let's say we are interested to find out more about this artifact then we'll actually go in further and actually take a look so what's the ascension number what's the subject category year of production material creator dimensions so you can see you can very easily see where everything is and using this we also can creator so you can see whenever it's just for a creator you can always see who they are from and in some cases where we have more information about the creator let's see if I have it here so we have seen this Maurice Paton Maurice Paton is one of the earlier bands so if I want to find out more about Maurice Paton I can always click in the search bar and they actually lead us to a few pages about Maurice Paton and the melodians and we'll give further information based on what is available so it's an instance of an album it is in English and Mandarin Chinese and the first is calligraphy so if you want to find out more about this calligraphy right now there's only one so when we find more we'll actually start populating this list so it's actually a very interactive and very intuitive kind of platform you just click on it and you will go to another page so you can actually it's like a rabbit hole so you can start from somewhere you end up in another place and usually everything is linked to one another which is the beauty of the data model in Wikidata so a lot of times what we do is actually we don't just come out with these properties ourselves it's really not easy to do the data modeling so for us a lot of times we actually take direction from existing Wikidata database so for example for example this vinyl record we look for similar vinyl records in Wikidata so maybe I can just do a quick search maybe Bohemian Rhapsody Wikidata and ya you can see that we actually take cues so what are some of the important information that we must have for musical group we must have the title the genre the creator, the performer the language the composer so there are some key patterns which we find that it's something that we want to adopt and we want to adapt from the Wikidata structure so for us a lot of times it really helps to use Wikidata as a base to help us build our own data so similarly because right now Wikibase Club doesn't really have the feature to show photographs at the front so what we usually do is we want to work around around this is actually to have a property called photographs then when we click into photographs it actually links us directly to Wikimedia Commons where the photographs are easily accessible and easily searchable over there so this helps really to give a visual representation to all our artefacts provided that of course we have when you have the copyrights to the images so this is a very brief demonstration on our current Wikibase instance Wikibase Club instance so right now we are starting small so this project by the end of next year and end of next year we are hoping to actually build something bigger 2,000 artefacts and it will be something like imagine what you can do with 2,000 artefacts and how much you can learn and how much you can click so from one rabbit hole you can really end up in 100 rabbit holes away so we are currently developing our first Wikibase Club instance base of 100 artefacts so this is still in the first empty stage so I've mentioned this in the photographs we also modded our data of similar Wikidata entries so one thing that we realised helps a lot is to actually maximise the search function in the Wikibase Club instance is to include important details like ascension numbers index terms as well as key descriptors in the main description which I think is below 200 characters you have to keep it within that but for this, this is very important to maximise the search function so that's for the empty stage but in future when we are actually working on the next stages of Wikimedia Wikibase Club we actually will be organising focus group discussions to help to build a consensus on the proposed takeaway of the archive for user experience so this will be done with residents volunteers and stakeholders so gradually we will start building a wireframe for our website and using Wikibase Club as a back-end we hope to actually strengthen so you can see Wikibase Club is really very intuitive we actually just want to use it as a back-end with a very strong front-end website to really make this experience something that even someone who doesn't know how to use Facebook can also know with you how to use this so we will be actually uploading everything in batches simply a lot of artifacts to upload and we will do it in artifact types so it involves first physical artifacts and photographs, these are the easiest upload and then when it comes to publications and documents, how do we scan how do we actually translate how do we actually retrieve the text, for example within the documents for the archives so this is something, a struggle maybe a challenge that we have they will think about after later on there is also the oral history interviews which we, at the moment we are thinking of how to actually best transcribe it how to best transcribe it as well as translate it for the everyday audience so this is one step further so we are starting small starting from physical artifacts and photographs and eventually going into documents oral history interviews and hopefully by June 2024 we hope to get residents stakeholders and researchers to start browsing, we hope to launch the initiative and also organize workshop seminars to actually involve more residents and volunteers in co-managing the archives so of course there will be sustained efforts to do this so again you can see we want to keep this available for posterity so when my Queenstown Museum opens in 2023 we will have a dedicated space for residents to come together monthly and bi-monthly so what we want to do is to organize more programs such as master classes on wiki commons we might even explore using a bit of coding so like using sparkle and wiki source also to actually integrate it into our into our archives we also have a befriending workshop we also have be an archivist be an archivist for a day workshop so that even young children can come and experience what it's like to be an archivist at my community of course we also remain committed to maintain the archive that is accessible, secure and transparent so we continue to collect information on website traffic and user experiences to work with wiki media and our web developer to ensure that the website is good for people of different background interests and needs and lastly we continue to engage with wiki media community hopefully we can you know workshops increase we can actually start to scale up this this model of organizing of actually setting up archive and actually grow beyond just Queenstown Jombaru and Bokemera perhaps even more collections like this can sprout up in different parts of Singapore so with that we hope that we can actually build Singapore's first inclusive, scalable and financially sustainable community archives and by leveraging the power of wiki data and wiki base we hope that this will be possible and this is especially important because it's actually culturally significant to our communities they provide a platform for research and appreciation for people, places and practices that make our communities unique so you'll serve as a platform to bring communities together promoting collaboration and understanding between different groups so that's all from me thank you so much for listening to me and if i'm open to me and Syu Chin over here we're open to take any questions from the audience yes very very good question so we have already been actually updating all the wiki media pages about Queenstown anything about Queenstown, Tanglin Hall Holland Village, everything is fully updated by either myself or someone from our team very committed to this neighbourhood so wiki data we can use it as well but currently the data model that users is very comprehensive so one of our own personal limitations is that we do not have the data to every single entry for example for example that final records we do not know where exactly is produced where exactly is being manufactured for example and often times this it actually creates how do i describe it is something that is a little bit different from what our requirements are also so for us we also are interested to find out where the artifact is located which wiki data doesn't have so it's a slightly different kind of data model what we need and what wiki data is so that's why we always say that's why for us wiki data it can be yes what was the precision process to not use i think for us we did experiment with some of the other database tools a lot of them actually one it's either not intuitive for the user or two it's not intuitive for us as a community because for us really when we are talking about uploading artifacts and maintaining a community archive it has to be something that is really very very intuitive that even everyday aunties and uncles who are not familiar with the technology not familiar with how to use things like it's not saying that it's a issue but for us maybe interact with our own communities we realise that a lot of them do not really know how to use a computer much less uploading things onto this platform so for us it really is important we found wiki media the wiki base cloud as one of the potentially better alternatives because it is really something that everyday people are familiar and the uploading process is really very simple it might be a bit laborious but it's actually very simple we just need to set all the property set all the constraints rights and it's very easy for users themselves to be the ones uploading the artifacts yes maybe we have yes so you will need some safe storage of your own for this project some of which can also go to cons you will need your own storage to be insured and touching on that i think you have a good reason to use your own one of the examples on your slide what was it like a cardboard cover of something and that's not the kind of item that wiki data would easily accept it's too minor too specific too concrete it's not a thing in the world it's a temeran a fleeting piece of something that may be interesting for you to document in the very local context from this shop an example of that kind of process but may not be acceptable and you may not have the reliable sources to back it up on wiki and absolutely ingest it, intake it into your own wiki base while you're figuring things out while you're mapping the various vendors and in that sense i think it does make sense to have your own wiki base which is safe from as no notability bar you can just collect all the data and bring order into it and catalog it as you go as you figure out the classifications that you want to apply okay, thank you so much for that so we'll take note regarding what you said about the copyright issue as well so perhaps one way we can do it is to have to continue using fixed chef for maybe the ones which do not have copyright permissions to publish so maybe you can balance something like that archiving also using wikimedia i think it's fascinating from all aspects, both the archival library space aspect and also wikimedia space and i think a lot of other projects around the world benefit from learning from what you learn as you blast this new blazing trend so you have to please document okay, thank you i think we have time for questions yes, i was actually wondering we don't have to go into technical details as an idea or connect on one part in that term finding ways local with others okay, okay so we will explore that so while working with wikimedia dojnan a few ways that we can actually normally upload the data onto wikimedia commons actually the data becomes accessible across wikidata if you want to let's say i'm trying to edit a certain article online then the information and the photos becomes readily available at the back end so i think this is a good start but we also think about other ways incorporate this information into the federation i think we run out of time okay, thank you so much for everyone's time so yes if you are free we are organising another talk on Friday morning that was about community archives then over the weekend if you are available, we are also organising our annual heritage festival this is the final weekend at Chinatown complex so if you are available to drop by it's just a short 3 or 4 stations away so hope to see you there bye bye
