@LucasWerkmeister@wikis.world @Wikibase@wikis.world Hi Lucas - I decided to apply this morning. Any hints on how the search is going?

@OpenAlex I’ve been gradually working to resolve some issues that came up in Wikidata via imports from EuropePMC. Hundreds of cases where, perhaps from the publisher side, an ORCID was assigned to the wrong author, thus mixing up the two names. Not the only problem but it had ripple effects.

@liw@toot.liw.fi It is best to start with a specific question - how does the code do this one thing I care about. Then trace the inputs from the main starting code through function and subroutine calls/object methods. Skip anything unrelated to your question, you can try to understand those later.
