It would sound better to call wikipedia an impressive feat of collaboration 🤔
But correcting people online is an annoying and fun activity we can do from home 😜

are there any ActivityPub alternatives to #BookWyrm or is it the only player in that space?

"Dear Laura, I see you wrote a book called #maybezombies and still are not a famous author. Too bad! Give me money and I'll help you not fail at life." <-- Thanks, I have just reduced the price because of your email. I feel like this is a good marketing strategy. https://leanpub.com/maybe-zombies/ #FediBookFair #BookWyrm
If I can see a #bookwyrm page about the original language edition of a book, is it OK to add a translation as another edition of the same item?

Now that I'm reading again (yay brain healing!), I've created a Bookwyrm profile to track my books.
Cheers to @jerry and crew for spinning up and maintaining that bookwyrm instance!
This is the anti-enshittification power of Free Code licensing at work.
Imagine if Mastodon Inc. decided to switch to a proprietary license, or add something dodgy to the official version of their code. It would be forked out from under them so fast it would make their heads spin.
Not the case with BookWyrm and their Source Available license. If they go to the Dark Side, your only options are to stop using it, have each admin patch their own instance, or violate copyright.

#BookWyrm is under the The Anti-Capitalist Software License;
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bookwyrm-social/bookwyrm/refs/heads/main/LICENSE.md
Like the Peer Production License and other pro-solidarity Source Available licenses, it's well-meaning. But like any Source Available license with restrictions on third-party reuse/ modification/ distribution, it's fundamentally incompatible with both the Free Software Definition and the Open Source Definition.

Apparently, Bookwyrm stores quotations with:
type="Quotation"
And if one Bookwyrm server talks to another Bookwyrm server, then — the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams representation of the quotation will have:
type="Quotation"
...
BUT — if a non-Bookwyrm server talks to a Bookwyrm server, then — the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams representation of the quotation will have:
type="Note"
#ActivityPub#ActivityStreams#FediDev#Fediverse#ObjectTypeNote#ObjectTypeQuotation
There are examples of the #ActivityPub extensions #Bookwyrm makes, which are on the (commonly taken) path of protocol decay and whack-a-mole programming by their #LinkedData non-conformance, unfortunately.
Yet that means there's opportunity for #FEP's if there are more #interoperability parties. 😃
Here's an example of Quotation, which has no LD context:
https://github.com/bookwyrm-social/bookwyrm/blob/main/bookwyrm/tests/data/ap_quotation.json
And here of Edition which is incorrectly placed in #ActivityStreams context:
https://github.com/bookwyrm-social/bookwyrm/blob/main/bookwyrm/tests/data/bw_edition.json
has anyone looked at what compatibility or overlap could look like between these and #Bookwyrmjoinbookwyrm.com
cc @anew.social for future bridging complications lol
