Abstract

[edit source]

We share with you 10 findings from our research on the Wikimedia projects during the past year and you can utilize them in your work.

Description

[edit source]

Every year the Research team [1] at the Wikimedia Foundation along with our Research Fellow, Formal Collaborators, Research Contractors and Interns spends thousands of hours conducting research on the Wikimedia projects. We communicate these findings through a variety of means including but not limited to publishing scientific papers [2] and the bi-annual Research Reports [3]. In this presentation we share with you 10 findings from the research conducted in the past year that we believe are important for you to be aware of. We hope that you utilize these findings when building tools, developing policies, or conducting your line of work and research to improve the Wikimedia projects.

Qn. How does your session relate to the event themes: Diversity, Collaboration Future?

Each time we reflect on research findings, we naturally ask ourselves the question “How does this finding advance my understanding?” or “How can I utilize this finding in my work?”. To that extent, we believe that this session helps the participants think about the Future. The conversations that may arise as part of the Q&A in this session may further opportunities for future Collaborations.
