Proposed activity and effect on infrastructure
Technical activity
- Set up site, including choice and installation of appropriate pre-existing MediaWiki extensions
- Incorporation of an extension to allow display of .mol files
- Incorporation of an extension to allow searching by structure (at first, this would be a simple search on exact structure matches: greater functionality would then be developed)
- Development of an extension to support (and, if possible include semi-automatically) CML markup
- Development of extensions to support and facilitate Open Laboratory Notebooks
- Preparation of usage statistics
Technical-content activity
- Choice of supported filetypes and MediaWiki "namespaces"
- Ensuring correct procedures for the labelling of contributed content with its correct copyright license
- Development of automated and semi-automated methods for the validation and correction of certain content
- Development of methods to ensure the machine-readability of content at the minimum effort for the contributor
