Dear Wikimedians,
The Movement Strategy and Governance Team is happy to announce that there will be another global conversations event on regional and thematic hubs on June 24, 25, and 26!
There is a lot happening around regional and thematic hubs with different research and planning projects. The event is intended to be a space for sharing and learning between those that are already working on establishing a hub in their context. Participants are invited to share their hub work experiences and learn from each other. Ideally, clear next steps can be mapped out for the future development of hubs.
Participants are also invited to discuss their hub piloting ideas. Some research and planning projects have been completed, which means that it is time to put some ideas into practice. Ideally, the event will help with mapping of considerations and concerns, to inform the future process.
The event will take place in 3 iterations in different time zones to enable participation across the movement. Anyone interested in hubs’ discussion can choose the time most fitting for them. The times of the meetings are following:
-
Friday, June 24 - 11:00 - 13:00 UTC (in your time zone https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1656068431) with simultaneous interpretation in Arabic, French, and Spanish -
Saturday, June 25 - 16:00 - 18:00 UTC (in your time zone https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1656172831) with simultaneous interpretation in Arabic, French, Spanish, and Portuguese (tbc) -
Sunday, June 26 - 05:00 - 07:00 UTC (in your time zone https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1656219631) without interpretation
Registration for the event will start on June 10 and closes on June 23. The sessions will take place on Zoom, and will be facilitated and supported by Insightpact. You can find more information on the event on the event page on Meta https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Hubs/Global_Conversations_June_24-26,_2022 .
If you have any questions or comments, please contact the organizing team via strategy2030@wikimedia.org.
Looking forward to a great conversation!

Kia ora from Aotearoa New Zealand, The newly established User Group of Aotearoa New Zealand is interested in knowing more about the editing community within NZ, and those editors offshore who edit New Zealand pages/content. Is there any way of accessing data on the this to answer our questions (see below)?Thanks in advance,Heather
· How many people in New Zealand regularly editWikipedia (say >100 edits in 12 months), and/or the regional distribution ofthese people within New Zealand · How many people in New Zealand are highly activecontributors (say > 1000 edits in 12 months), and/or their regional location within New Zealand · How many Wikipedia editors (globally) regularly editpages tagged with Wikiproject New Zealand (say >100 edits of WPNZ pages in12 months) and where are they located
· Who are the most active editors (globally ofWikipedia pages tagged with Wikiproject New Zealand, and where they are located(say > 1000 edits of WPNZ pages in 12 months),
Hello Heather -
The number of editors geographically located in New Zealand can be found using Wikistats.[1] The information can be obtained in table format rather than map format, and can be viewed as those who made 5-99 edits/month and 100+ edits/month.
Underlying IP data is usually able to be country-specific, but (speaking as a long-time checkuser) it is nowhere near specific enough to reliably break down into regions within a country. There could also be privacy concerns in releasing data on geographically quite small areas, and as far as I can see there is no data released on any countries (or any other regions) where there are fewer than 10 editors in an editing category.
It may be possible to ask a bot writer to gather data on the number of edits to Wikiproject New Zealand pages for the wikis on which it exists, and it could also probably give you a list of editors who make x edits per year in that category; however, I see some pretty serious privacy concerns when you are asking for a breakdown of the locations of these specific, named editors.
You may also want to consider whether you really want data based on "Wikiproject New Zealand" tagging, or Category:New Zealand (and all sub-category) data. There aren't a lot of projects that have such specific Wikiprojects, but there are quite a few more that categorize articles.
I don't write bots, but you might want to see who writes bots on English Wikipedia and contact the bot writers directly. Many of them write bots that can work cross-wiki.
