Hello everyone!
The annual report of Whose Knowledge? User Group is available in Meta. We are glad to share with all of you our journey from September 2020 to September 2021.
Please find the report here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Whose_Knowledge%3F/Reports/2021
We recognize that 2021 was a year to build up resilience after all that 2020 brought to us and our communities. Even though we continued to face the effects of Covid-19, and of other intersecting pandemics of racism, patriarchy, and the climate crisis, we also started to get our strength back and to embrace the future with joy and hope:
- Whose Knowledge? celebrated five mighty years of its existence in Sep 2021 with a special social media campaign. - WK? incorporated in the State of CA, as a public benefit corporation in June 2021. We have worked with our esteemed Board in the last few months as well, to move WK? in the direction of its mission. - The #VisibleWikiWomen campaign 2021 brought over 1700 images to Wikimedia Commons, illustrating pages in 38 different Wikipedia languages. - We have successfully designed and developed a fully tailored website that will present the State of the Internet's Languages report to our wide audience in a user-friendly manner. - We hosted a multilingual event on Decolonising Structured Data as a pre-WikidataCon event and we did a keynote at WikidataCon itself.
You can learn more about our activities, access the materials and resources created, and see photos and presentations in the full report.
In the next few weeks we will be sharing a multilingual, accessible and multimedia website for the State of the Internet's Languages, and we will launch our next #VisibleWikiWomen campaign. Stay tuned through our website (https://whoseknowledge.org/), social media channels (@whoseknowledge on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook) and consider subscribing to our newsletter (https://whoseknowledge.org/join/), or reach out us in our discussion page on Meta (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Whose_Knowledge%3F).
In solidarity,
Mariana and the Whose Knowledge? team
Thank you for the report Mariana.
Decolonising Wikidata was one of the high points of 2021 Wikimedia vectors. This looks impressive, inspirational and I hope we catch up soon as we did in 2021 for CEE Spring special session.
Super curious over State of the Internet's Languages - there is so much to update there from language policies. They shaped discrepancies of Wikipedia instances and set the tone for much of interaction with top down language norms to bottom up communities.
