Dear EduWiki Community,
Did you know that Meta wiki is turning 20 years old this month? And it’s getting the best birthday present ever--the “This Month in Education Newsletter https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/News!”
The Movement Communications team recently completed research https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_communications_insights/Report to better understand movement communication needs. One thing we learned is that people often have trouble finding the information they need and feel overloaded with options https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_communications_insights/Report/Broadcast_on_demand. After consulting the EWOC volunteers, the EduWiki Affiliates network, and other key newsletter contributors, the Education Team has decided to support moving the newsletter from Outreach to Meta. This migration will help bring about better visibility and participation with the wider Wikimedia community and beyond. A place where contributors can be better seen, engaged and supported – and in more languages than before.
Given that we want our community to be an open space for all people who are interested in Wikimedia & Education, moving the newsletter from Outreach to Meta is one way to improve inclusiveness and accessibility.
If you are subscribed to the newsletter, nothing will change for you, you will still get it delivered to your talk page. We will still share the newsletter each month in the mailing list, and we will also begin sharing newsletter highlights on Diff.
You can read the next edition of “This Month in Education” on Meta on November 19th, Meta Wiki’s 20th birthday!
We hope you will continue to contribute and read this publication that highlights the amazing work our EduWiki community is doing around the world!
Warm regards,
Nichole
Thank you, and I believe that this is a positive step toward better inclusion, and I hope the education community continues to grow.
