Dear Wiki Researchers,
Maybe you know or not, but we are intending to submit an EU COST Action https://www.cost.eu/ at the end of the month to support a network of Academic Wikimedians, especially to host meetings and develop additional grants in the future. Here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1D6Thim7W8xRO0q1f1wUcS3acWz7QC_HZDWhgHVZNjg4/edit?tab=t.9lo2fz85mi1o is the draft along with last year's version and the feedback we got, which we think was good enough to try again.
Technically we have enough people (need people from minimum 7 nations) and more than last year (about 20 so far). But, *given that the project is intended to mostly support young researchers, women, and also people from inclusiveness countries,* who can also be more difficult to reach, we put out another broad call also for suggestions e.g., phd students, or ways to get in contact with such people.

Additionally, i want to point out that i tried to contact some of you through the research person's databases, but it is very difficult to find emails for you and in some cases they bounced, so I ask you to reach out here if you want to be involved or know more.
Finally and as always, we also welcome and encourage you to join the WikiScience Hub https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Science_Hub, which is an outgrowth of the COST action application from last year.
Thank you, Brett and all other COST Action/ ScienceHub team members
Dear Brett and COST Action/ScienceHub team,
Thank you for sharing this initiative. I would like to express my interest in joining the COST Action grant application. I am from Argentina, 26 years old, and my research focuses on resource recovery and plant proteomics.
You can find my academic profile here: Google Scholar https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=sAXQwYUAAAAJ&hl=en and my Wikimedia profile here: Meta Wiki User Luisfff2812 https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Luisfff2812
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to a network that supports young researchers, women, and participants from inclusive countries. I would be glad to collaborate in any way that helps advance this project!
Looking forward to your reply.
Best regards, Luis Fernando Flores Google Scholar https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=sAXQwYUAAAAJ&hl=es Research Gate https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Luis-Flores-97 ORCID https://orcid.org/0009-0009-3067-4499 Wikimedia Profile https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Luisfff2812

Hello!
Circling back to this after a few months. Having recently become an English Wikipedia administrator and started my PhD, I am curious about the current status of the Academic Wikimedians network. As my research area is in machine learning (NLP more specifically), I'm interested in learning more about this network and how the application went. I would love to be able to contribute in the future!
Best wishes and happy holidays, Ilyas Lebleu (User:Chaotic Enby)

Hi all,
This is a great idea! CAT Lab has a forthcoming project where we are hoping to collaborate with more researchers who do computational social science on Wikipedia in Global Majority contexts, something I care about deeply as a Guatemalan-American who has worked with WikiLovesAfrica in the past. I am very much in support of efforts to more explicitly establish those bridges, so do keep me posted on how this goes!
All the best,
-- J. Nathan Matias
