Hi all, I'm very happy to share [1] that Kinneret Gordon has joined the Research team at the Wikimedia Foundation as our Lead Research Community Officer. In this capacity, Kinneret oversees many of our team's initiatives to serve the Wikimedia research community and will be the leading voice within the Wikimedia Foundation to advocate for the needs of this community. All members of the Research team [2] will continue dedicating a portion of their time to the research community (roughly 20% for the coming 12 months). I encourage you to learn more about Kinneret at [1] and book one of her upcoming office hours [3] if you'd like to get to know her or talk with her for matters that are related to the Wikimedia research community. I'm very happy to see that we have the support to continue prioritizing serving the Wikimedia research community within the Wikimedia Foundation and our team. I'm looking forward to working with Kinneret, the rest of the team, and all of you to help further strengthen the Wikimedia research community. Best, Leila [1] Although some of you have already learned about part of this email through https://research.wikimedia.org/report.html#people [2] https://research.wikimedia.org/team.html [3] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Research/Office_hours#Schedule -- Leila Zia Head of Research Wikimedia Foundation
