This one-hour online discussion will bring together community members and the foundation's new multimedia team to discuss our next steps for a better, media-rich experience on Wikipedia and Commons. During this chat, we will ask you how we can improve multimedia on our sites, as well as discuss these new feature ideas:

If you are interested in multimedia and have had any experience uploading media files, curating them or placing them on articles, we would love to hear from you. Please RSVP here if you are interested in joining, so we know how many people to expect:

Even if you can't join this IRC chat, we'd be grateful if you could spread the word in your community, so we can attract a good mix of Commonists and Wikipedians to help us plan our next steps. To that end, I would be grateful for any suggestions of constructive users whom you think should be invited to join this or future multimedia discussions.

Thanks for your interest. Hope to speak with you soon!

All the best,


Fabrice and the Multimedia Team
