CVWiki#

On BibSonomy, you can not only share your publications with other users. It is also possible for you to create a custom Curriculum Vitae page where you can tell others about yourself, your hobbies, research interests or just about your personal publications. On this page, we would like to give you a short introduction the the CVWiki.

What is it?#

The CVWiki is a feature of BibSonomy which allows you to create or manipulate your own CV page by using either predefined templates or by creating your CV in your personal style.

If you choose to go for the latter possibility, you can both use the well-known Mediawiki syntax as well as predefined XHTML tags. We will cover both these options in later sections.

Where is it?#

You can find your CVWiki page at http://www.bibsonomy.org/cv/user/YourUserName. From there, you can either navigate to the editor by clicking on the gear wheels in the top right or by visiting your settings page http://www.bibsonomy.org/settings?selTab=4.

Usage details#

Basic functions#

On the settings page, you can see a preview of what your CV could look like if you applied the current design. Hidden below the selector for the predefined designs lies the CV editor. Here you are free to create an awesome CV page on your own. For this, you can use the help text for the Wiki Markup language.

Glancing at our custom tags#

We provide several XHTML tags to save you some time.

Tag Meaning Group User
<name /> Your name, linking to your personal BibSonomy page no yes
<image /> Your profile image no yes
<publications /> A list of all the publications you tagged with "myown". yes yes
<bookmarks /> A list of all bookmarks you tagged with "myown" yes yes

<hobbies /> A list of your hobbies no yes
<interests /> Your personal interests no yes

For <publications /> and <bookmarks />, you can also specify other tags as selectors for your resources, if you add tags="tag1 tag2[ ...]" as parameter, so e.g. <publications tags="data mining" /> returns all publications in your list which you tagged with both data and mining.
