We have one free pass for the workshop that covers the registration fee (no transportation, hotel, etc.). If you're interested to attend and haven't registered, yet, please ping me off-list before noon CEST on Saturday. Please include a few lines in your email as to why you want to attend the workshop. The priority will be given to Wiki(p|m)edia editors, especially those local, then to Wiki(p|m)edia researchers, and then to anyone else. :)

Best, Leila, on behalf of Wiki Workshop organizers

Hi everyone,

We are excited to announce that the 5th annual Wiki Workshop [1] will take place in Lyon on April 24, 2018 and as part of The Web Conference 2018 (a.k.a. WWW2018) [2].

You can access the call for papers at http://wikiworkshop.org/2018/#call . Please submit your ongoing or completed research related to Wikimedia projects to the workshop. Note that 2018-01-28 is the submission deadline if you want your paper to appear in the proceedings, and 2018-03-11 is for all other papers.[3]

Following the past year's model, the workshop will have a set of invited talks (Jon Kleinberg and Markus Kroetzsch have already accepted our invitation [4] \o/), a poster session, and more.

Questions and comments are welcome. Otherwise, we're looking forward to receiving your submissions and seeing you in Lyon in April. :)

Best, Leila, on behalf of the organizers [5]
