This hands-on workshop will guide participants through the process of publishing controlled vocabularies encoded in SKOS using SkoHub Pages. SkoHub Pages offers an efficient way to publish vocabularies in both human and machine-readable formats without requiring an additional server using GitHub Pages.
After that we will see how to use these vocabularies in reconciliation tasks with SkoHub Reconcile

You have a Wikimedia or an ORCID Accout or create one here: Wikimedia or ORCID, so that you can upload your vocabulary to https://reconcile-publish.skohub.io/ and test the reconciliation features of SKOHUB.
We provide a hosted version of openRefine for the workshop. But optionally you can use your installed version on your computer.
If you have any questions or need support by setting up any of feel free to ask us. But we advise to open a new thread in the Workshops@SWIB24 - SWIB Forum and tag it with ws-skohub.
Thanks for participating in our workshop. We had a lot of fun introducing you to SkoHub.
If you still have any question about SkoHub do not hesitate to contact us through use this thread. If you encouter any bugs you can open an issue on github: SkoHub · GitHub (Choose the correct repo either skohub pages or skohub reconcile)
I now managed to load all of QLIT with skohub pages https://gu-gridh.github.io/skohub-pages/queerlit.dh.gu.se/qlit/v1/yi91op03.html with our organization account. That is so great! My co-workers from Queerlit are very excited. And now when they also started the matching to Homosaurus and Wikidata and making it multilingual, this will be such a great addition to Queerlit’s main page.
I’ll get in contact to you in the next weeks (after another project launch) about some minor details if that’s okay. Thank you for this great tool and workshop!
Also thanks for the link to SKOS play! That is so helpful to find errors in the current version <3
Especially the usage of definition and note seems to be untypical. What would you say? Would this taxonomy serve as a suitable pattern/prototype/example (“Muster”) ?
Here is my question in the metadata community-Forum, you could also discuss there (discussion initialized in German, but switching to English absolutely fine).
