I've been contending with some health issues that have been worse than usual of late. But we're long overdue for a meeting. Would Thursday, June 1, at 7pm work for those who are inclined to attend? Please let me know, either on or off list. I also wanted to let you all know about a workshop this Thursday that may be of interest. I heard about Wiki Workshop <https://wikiworkshop.org/2023/> from a professor at UNC's School of Information and Library Science, who studies Wikipedia. From her email: "Wiki Workshop is a forum for bringing together researchers exploring all aspects of the Wikimedia projects. It's a place where we create bridges between the research communities and many other communities that make the Wikimedia projects a reality: volunteer editors, developers, academics, affiliate organizations and user-groups, policy advocates, and beyond." This is a workshop by and for people who do research about the Wikimedia projects -- rather than one by and for the editing communities. But I'm sure there is considerable overlap! Registration is free: (https://pretix.eu/wikimedia/wikiworkshop2023/) Even if you don't attend, you can view some of the abstracts, which cover topics such as: the effects of page protection on Wikipedia how editors construct knowledge on mental health inclusion of Intersex and Trans-Non-Binary Gender Identities in the editor community effects of the Russo-Ukrainian War on the editor activity of the Ukrainian, Russian, and English Wikipedias If anyone attends, I'd love to hear about it!
