Dear Wikimedia Research community,
This is a friendly reminder that the deadline for proposal submissions to the 2025 Research Fund is next Wednesday, April 16, 2025.
As a reminder, we made some changes to the fund this year, most notably focusing the funds on supporting applications by established Wikimedia researchers or established researchers who want to become Wikimedia researchers, and accepting three types of Research Fund proposals: Research Proposals (same category as the previous years), Extended Research Proposals (New, multi-year, with the possibility to ask for more funds), and Event and Community-Building Proposals (same as the previous years though we are making it more visible and prominent as a category).
You can find more information about the fund as well as links to the application forms on Meta-Wiki [1 https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Programs/Wikimedia_Research_%26_Technology_Fund/Wikimedia_Research_Fund ]. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out at research_fund@wikimedia.org. We are looking forward to receiving your proposals.
Best, Kinneret Gordon (Workflow Chair)
Dear Kinneret,
thanks for the reminder.
I actually have a question about the "notable wikimedia researcher" requirements. Which are the criteria that you adopt to evaluate it? I didn't find any fields in the openreview form to provide evidence about our research commitment in the Wikimedia ecosystem.
Thanks Marco, UNITO https://www.unito.it/persone/mstranis and aequa-tech https://aequa-tech.com/

Hi Marco,
In the application form you should see a "Personnel" section where we ask you to provide " link to the researcher's profile (Google Scholar profile, ORCID, DBLP profile, or a personal webpage where we can learn about the personnel’s experience with research)". We will use this information to learn more about the primary applicant's as well as the rest of the team's (if relevant) research experience.
I hope this helps.
Best, Leila
