Last week I told you about the "Learning Objectives Matrix on the Topic of Research Data Management (RDM)" (in this blog post: https://winoda.de/en/2025/09/09/the-lom-for-rdm-and-the-unevenly-distributed-knowledge)

I only just realized that @DINInestorAGFD has already published the English version on Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/15846806
It has also been skosified - you can share, fork, update and participate on a github repo as well: https://github.com/dini-ag-kim/fdm-lernziele.

Which is great news! Have a look!

Just dropped a new blog post about the fine art of semantic procrastination 🦥

When you're building linked data APIs but don't want to coin URIs for concepts that aren't yours (because you're not a monster), deterministic blank nodes are your friend.

Featuring: water quality data, a shoehorned Jackie Weaver reference, and why sometimes the most responsible thing you can do is admit you don't know everything yet.

I'm currently generating cross-lingual mappings for educational resources and found a fun non-trivial negative mapping:

kim.lp:0000122 (Gymnasium) and mesh:D020446 (Fitness Centers) aren't related, because Gymnasium is one of the types of German high school

SSSOM is the perfect place to store this (curated via Biomappings: https://github.com/biopragmatics/biomappings/pull/204)

It took me a while to understand that #getty:broader and variants are not equal to #SKOS:broader. Here are the "#hyponyms" of "people by degree of qualification" from The Art & Architecture Thesaurus (#AAT) - I am not quite convinced.

@datenschatz Für die Nordrhein-Westfälische Bibliographie haben wir mal die frei Ortsverschlagwortung ersetzt durch einen kontrollierten Ansatz auf Basis von #Wikidata und #SKOS: https://journal.code4lib.org/articles/15875

How We Built a Spatial Subject Classification Based on Wikidata

From the fall of 2017 to the beginning of 2020 a project had been carried out to upgrade spatial subject indexing in North Rhine-Westphalian Bibliography (NWBib) from uncontrolled strings to controlled values. For this purpose, a spatial classification with around 4,500 entries was created from Wikidata and published as SKOS (Simple Knowledge Organization System) vocabulary. [...]
