Club fan page to hold statistics and history	How to use Semantic Mediawiki to aggregate Clubs statistics and their players numbers.	Eduardo Ferreira		Lightning talk
4 wikis in health care	I could talk about any of the 4 wikis I run, about something we have set up on them (one is used for scheduling shifts, on another we have regular importing and exporting from Access, another has a role based documentation and onboarding mechanism, etc.) The oldest started in 2009.

For creating the tool we linked different sources, like Wikidata, Pronom, NARA Risk Matrix and COPTR. Reusing information from different sources is an important starting point, but linking different sources also gives lots of challenges. This talk will explain how the online tool's construction and use of the tool by the target audience.	Remco de Boer, Sam Alloing, Marjolein Steeman	linked data, preservation, file formats	Talk

To support this alternative approach to page naming, we have used a modified version of the SemanticTitle extension as well as several extensions to SemanticForms that we have custom developed and are in the process of submitting to the open source community.
