Out now: Insa Bechert, Kerstin Beck, and Ivet Solanes Ros: Caring for Data’s Soul –The Development of a Curation Impact Factor to Pinpoint the Effects of Data Curation Activities on Data Quality, in: International Journal of Digital Curation2025, Vol. 19, Iss.1, pp.21, DOI: https://ijdc.net/index.php/ijdc/article/view/1030/75310.2218/ijdc.v19i1.1030.
Curation matters for data quality! Hardly any survey data user would disagree with this statement. But how much of a difference it makes is difficult to count.
This paper details ArSyTa, a new, massive dataset for citation AI. It has 8.27M rich contexts from arXiv papers to improve recommendation models. https://hackernoon.com/the-creation-of-arsyta-a-novel-827-million-context-dataset-for-local-citation-recommendation #datacuration

#DatabasesDemystified Part 3: Types of Curation
This advanced search discovers how many #databases have each of the different types of #datacuration @fairsharing describes: manual, automated, both manual and automated, none, or not found.
Surprisingly, most databases in FAIRsharing are manually curated. But why is the curation status of 30% of those databases unknown? Read more at https://blog.fairsharing.org/?p=868
