== new link to dedicated database for Sialyl Lewis x, etc ==

hi,
we are developing a public database dedicated to sugar-protein (lectin) interactions of hosts with pathogens. There is an entry for sialyl-Lewis x as well as Sialyl-Lewis a, each describing some biological facts so we would like to suggest linking corresponding wikipedia pages to these entries. For further information:
http://sugarbind.expasy.org/ligands/129
http://sugarbind.expasy.org/ligands/162

you can check us, we are part of http://en.wikipedia.org/ExPASy
this is real and internationally recognised.
It would be really nice to complement the knowledge of Lewis antigens with the information we store in the SugarBind database. the database is manually curated (as described on our website).

I have discussed this issue at the wikipermanence in Geneva and they directed me to you. They suggested adding a new item for SugarBind in the ChemBox but of course I cannot do that.

Thank you for your consideration
your can contact me anytime (see http://sugarbind.expasy.org)

Wikidata weekly summary #136

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Events/Blogs/Press

    • Wikimedia Commons now has access to the data on Wikidata
    • Statements on properties are now live
    • Sneak peek at a prototype for checking Wikidata's data against 3rd party databases
    • The Game has a new mode: alma mater
    • Work is ongoing for a bot job to tag thousands of objects in OpenStreetMap with the equivalent Wikidata ID
    • Resolver finds Wikidata items for a given identifier (VIAF, GND, IMDB, ...)
    • English-Misplaced Pages now has a template, RedQ, which puts a Wikidata link next to red links for subjects which have no Misplaced Pages article in any language, This should prevent duplicate Wikidata items from being created when an article is written, and assist Misplaced Pages editors to find relevant facts and sources. Please copy it to other-language Wikipedias.
  • Did you know?
  • Development
    • Started work on units
    • More work on evaluating options for querying
    • Implemented Property DataType (for relationships between properties)
    • Improvements to get by with fewer memcache request on clients
    • Work on file-based cache of the SiteStore
    • Work on improved label lookup performance
    • Wrapping up work on usage tracking
  • Monthly Tasks
