Dear Wikimedia Research Community,
Following requests and conversations during Wikimania, Iolanda Pensa and I have partnered to update the* Research:People page on Meta *( https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:People) and make it more relevant for everyone. We’ve refreshed the page to make it easier to navigate.
We hope this update enables the following:
- Maintain an up-to-date list of people who consider themselves part of the Wikimedia Research Community. - Gain a better understanding of who is in the community, their research interests, and how to contact them. - Provide a central resource where researchers can seek support or consult with one another. - Facilitate networking and foster collaborations and joint research projects.
We warmly invite new community members to add their details to the directory. If you're already listed, feel free to update your information to reflect any recent changes.
As a bonus and in case you didn't know, the Research:Index page on Meta ( https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Index) gathers a lot of helpful resources for our community, many of them maintained by the community itself. I invite you to explore the Index and the listed resources and consider updating or contributing to them for the benefit of the entire research community. If you need any assistance with this, feel free to reach out!
Thank you for helping us keep this resource up-to-date and valuable for everyone in the community. And a big thank you to Iolanda for partnering with me on this :)
Best regards,
Kinneret

Thank you, Iolanda and Kinneret for working on this post Wikimania. :) It's nice to read entries as they're coming in: getting to know more about people that I know and seeing the opportunity to connect to more people in this community. 💗
If I can put a word of encouragement for those who may not identify as researchers: it would be great to know more about you in https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:People as well. The Wikimedia Research Community includes folks from different backgrounds and I look forward to seeing the diversity of our backgrounds and interests in this page. :)
