Hi,
In this GigaScience piece, I'm arguing, that "We are the 1% in terms of knowledge access privilege; developing Wikipedia, the common good of humanity, is our moral obligation", and trying to figure out why academics still frown upon Wikipedia.

Besides a shameless self-promo, I'm also genuinely curious what your experience with persuading people in Academia that what you do is legit is.
best,
dj

Hi!
As a part of my job at OBC Transeuropa <https://www.balcanicaucaso.org/eng>
among the other things I contribute to Wikipedia and Commons with graphs
and text coming from EDJNet <https://www.europeandatajournalism.eu/>, a
data journalism network we promote that is publishing its content with a
free license.
In the attempt of inserting graphs using MediaWiki instead of svg images I
realised the tool now available are cumbersome and there is the
possibilities for improvement.
Thus we are making a survey to understand if Wikipedia users are interested
in having better tools, allowing to publish better graphs more easily. So
I ask you to please spend a few minutes of your time to let us now what you
think :)
https://surveys.europeandatajournalism.eu/quiz/data-visualization-for-wikip…
The survey is anonymous. You will be given the opportunity to leave your
e-mail address to receive updates on developments, but this is optional.
The results of the survey will be published on EDJNet and on Meta, and I
will also link them here.
Let me know if you have any questions! Thank you!
