Bulk Page Creation
For conference series (and probably other similar types of content), its important to add data to OpenResearch in bulk. Here is how this can be done easily:
- Create a spreadsheet with the important information, similar to https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19n943XNzDDuCaBpZ4x1l1P4gJVQ8my2424o4UOc3v9k/edit
- Export the spreadsheet to a CSV
- You can use a service such as http://mwcsvimport.pronique.com to create an XML import file for MediaWiki from the CSV using the following template:
The Title should be "{$Acronym}"
{{Event
|Acronym={$Acronym}
|Title={$Title}
|Series=ESWC
|Type=Conference
|Field=Semantic web
|Start date={$Start}
|End date={$End}
|City={$City}
|State={$State}
|Country={$Country}
|Homepage={$Homepage}
|Submitted papers={$Submissions}
|Accepted papers={$Accepted}
|has general chair={$Chair},
|has program chair={$PC chair}
}}
- Use MediWiki Import pages to upload the generated XML import file and create the pages in bulk
- The import page accepts XML files formated in the Media Wiki export format (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Export, https://www.mediawiki.org/xml/export-0.10.xsd)
