Hi all,
I'm a member of Wikimania (July 21-25 in Paris) program committee for the research track. The research track is open until **March 31st**. The other tracks are closed.
The research track accepts proposal by both professional researchers and Wikimedians. Our goal is to foster discussions between the research community and the Wikimedia communities, mostly regarding structural changes or challenges for the future of our projects. The effects of generative AI, community growth & diversity, and "reliability at scale" are themes we envision but several others are possible as long as they stay on the broad themes: Freedom, Equity, and Reliability.
You can find more details here: https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2026:Program/Research
If you need additional information, feel free to reach me.
Have a nice day,
Julien.
