Introduction
CS4CS stands for Citizen Science for Citizen Science, i.e. a and it refers to a crowd sourcing and thinking project that aims to create an inventory of interesting citizen science projects.
CS4CS is embedded in EduTechWiki and accessible through a central hub page, called portal: citizen science
Participation
Signing up
Anyone can participate. However, since EduTechWiki is subject to heavy spamming attacks you will have to go through the somewhat tedious registration procedure.
Once you got an account, you either can create new entries for projects, infrastructure and software, or you can modify existing entries.
Editing existing entries
Unlike in a traditional wiki page, editing is done through forms, using the Edit with form button on top
If you want to add information that can't be entered through the forms, you can do so using the "free text" field at the end.
Help us to improve CS4CS
You also can make suggestions regarding the forms and the visual display through the following three discussion pages:
- Comment/discuss the project form
- Comment/discuss the infrastructure form
- Comment discuss the software form
Use the the following discussion page for general questions
Implementation
CS4CS was implemented using Semantic MediaWiki and in particular Semantic Forms.
Article types
We used the following templates and forms:
| Entry types | Form | Template | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Citizen science projects | form:Citizen science project | template:Citizen science project | |
| Citizen science infrastructure | form:Citizen science infrastructure | template:Citizen science infrastructure | |
| Citizen science software | form:Citizen science software | template:Citizen science software | |
| Bibliography item | form:BibliographyForm | template:Bibliography | This template is embedded in the citizen science projects form |
Query forms
In addition, we will use so-called filters and query templates. As of Oct 15 2013, these are not yet implemented...
Test: Special:RunQuery/Citizen_science_project_query, using the Form:Citizen science project query and the template:Citizen science project query
