Hi Leila,
Glad we were thinking along similar lines!

We have some ideas and would love to hear other people's thoughts. Having
received a grant
<https://citizensandtech.org/2021/02/new-funding-new-hires/> to support
research together with Wikipedia communities over the next three years, we
have several goals for the next few months, and we're still deciding how
well Wikimania is the right place for them:
- Gathering with Wikipedians to *discuss research ideas/agendas*
(unclear if the new Wikimania format would work for this)
If you can work with 45-min one of the Workshop or Discussion forms should
accommodate this:
https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Submissions/Guidelines#Tracks .
For this one, my hunch is that you should go ahead and just submit a
proposal. The other items you have can benefit from more
coordination/collaboration.
- *Convening researchers* to discuss possible
questions and research
approaches (maybe?)
- Discussing *best practices for community outreach, co-design, and
approval/consent* with intervention research (this
might be especially
valuable)
I don't have very clear thoughts on these, yet.
- *Sharing research insights into other parts of
Wikimania* (would love
to help here, especially since we have a number of new results coming
out,
but unsure how it would work without tracks in the same way?)
Let's keep exploring this one. If we can find an engaging and accessible
way to share the top n findings of the past year, that'd be great, in my
humble opinion.
I'm clearly excited to think through this with you. ;) I'll be quiet for
others to chime in. Happy to brainstorm more in the coming 11 days.
Best,
Leila
All the best,

Thanks for kicking this off.
A few things on my end:
* In the Research team [1] we have started discussing and coordinating
on submissions. This conversation can shape some of the ongoing
conversations.
* Mako and I talked a while back to organize a series of sessions
similar to 2019:
https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2019:Research/Program . We
haven't connected recently though. Your email is a good poke. ;)
* Now that we know the format of Wikimania 2021, if I understand
correctly the 2019 format won't work. That is: we likely won't have
multiple large blocks of time.
Nate: what do you consider as good outcomes out of different Wikimedia
sessions the research community can (co-)organize?

Hi everyone,
I see that the Wikimania call for proposals
<https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Submissions/Guidelines> is
open,

a
way we can support that endeavor?
