From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
Welcome back from Wikimania 2014!
Participant
[edit ]Nikkimaria
en.wikipedia
Outcome
[edit ]I had a meeting with current and potential future participants in The Wikipedia Library. We planned some new initiatives/projects for the upcoming year and discussed means of creating collaborations between Wikipedians and libraries more generally. I also decided to engage with some of the cultural problems identified as contributing to Wikipedia's systemic bias. Work in this area is ongoing.
Connections
[edit ]In addition to meeting old friends, I had productive conversations with a few members of the WMF and other teams involved in innovative projects. I also participated in a couple of research projects, one related to mobile web and VE usability, the other in relation to the gender gap.
Anything else
[edit ]- I contributed briefly to the SUBMISSIONS/GLAM BOOT CAMP — A NEW MODEL FOR GLAM-WIKI SKILLS-BUILDING FOR WIKIMEDIANS presentation as a past participant in the program
