As part of her commitment "to listen and seek to understand", the incoming CEO of the Wikimedia Foundation, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maryana_Iskander Maryana Iskander], is undertaking a listening tour of the Wikimedia movement. The MediaWiki Stakeholder's Group is hosting a Zoom call for all MediaWiki users to discuss MediaWiki and its importance to the Wikimedia Foundation's vision to "freely share in the sum of all knowledge." Please join us for a short presentation followed by a Q&A. This meeting is governed by the [https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Friendly_space_policy Wikimedia Friendly Space Policy].

I am here out of curiosity :] * {{Agenda presenter|Cindy Cicalese}} https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Friendly_space_policy * {{Agenda presenter|Alexis Hershberger}} Alexis, user, here to listen. :) * {{Agenda presenter|Krinkle}} Wikivoyage.org: travel guide wiki. * {{Agenda presenter|Gergő Tisza}} https://www.appropedia.org/ is also a quite impressive wiki (about sustainable technologies for people in emerging economies) * {{Agenda presenter|Daniel Kinzler}} Happy to talk about Wikibase, since I was involved with it's inception and implementation * {{Agenda presenter|Derk-Jan Hartman}} Might be good to mention why ppl felt there was a need for mwstake a couple years ago. * {{Agenda presenter|Bryan Hilderbrand}} For anyone that came after the original chat post, feel free to add your questions here: https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/mwstake-Maryana-Iskander * {{Agenda presenter|Krinkle}} Wikibase, as deployed on Wikidata, powers parts of Apple SIri, Google Knowledge Graph, Alexa, etc. * {{Agenda presenter|Bryan Hilderbrand}} Wikibase is now increasingly being used outside WMF sites as well including Libraries, Galleries, Museums, etc. * {{Agenda presenter|Gergő Tisza}} I think English Wikipedia feels they have higher verification / anti vandalism standards than Wikidata (a smaller, newer community) so they are skeptical of the idea of outsourcing some of their knowledge curation to that project * {{Agenda presenter|Mehrdad Pourzaki}} From Wikidata - Maryana Iskander (Q86589685) * {{Agenda presenter|Daniel Kinzler}} :) * {{Agenda presenter|Gergő Tisza}} ( https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q86589685 ) * {{Agenda presenter|Krinkle}} These identifiers are especially useful for disambiguation, e.g. which of the 300 remakes of a film are we talking about, or maybe the book, or maybe some other concept that shares the same word/name. * {{Agenda presenter|Bryan Hilderbrand}} Great example Mehrdad :) * {{Agenda presenter|Gergő Tisza}} https://betweenthebrackets.libsyn.com/episode-3-mike-cariaso is a great podcast with the founder of SNPedia where he goes into how great unique identifiers are, e.g. for NLP * {{Agenda presenter|Eric-Jan van Kakerken}} More clarity from the MWF would ask for policy * {{Agenda presenter|Bill Pirkle}} Fandom: https://www.fandom.com/ * {{Agenda presenter|Krinkle}} e.g. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Flower_Shop (beware, commercial adverts present on the page) * {{Agenda presenter|Mehrdad Pourzaki}} Recommendation 1 :) * {{Agenda presenter|Gergő Tisza}} https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1w0Gq1FgyFuKw_6bMPUfvYQc9CTtRdmwwjGMrE69zpjk/edit was my old deck about this * {{Agenda presenter|Antoine Musso}} Time check: 15 minutes left * {{Agenda presenter|Richard Heigl}} I have something to Daniel and Gergö * {{Agenda presenter|Daniel Kinzler}} Daniel Mietchen is the guy to talk to about scientific publishing on MediaWiki * {{Agenda presenter|Gergő Tisza}} MediaWiki: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2018-20/Recommendations/Iteration_2/Product_%26_Technology/7 is the movement strategy recommendation about (this is a draft; in the final text most things are super-compressed and not easily understandable) * {{Agenda presenter|Bryan Hilderbrand}} Daniel: Thomas Shafee is also involved with scientific publishing on MW. Thanks for the tip on Daniel Mietchen! * {{Agenda presenter|Markus Glaser}} gerrit * {{Agenda presenter|Eric-Jan van Kakerken}} I agree with Richard. What´s the WMF/MWStakeholders relationship aiming for and what is the linked plan? Please keep us posted on this Maryana. * {{Agenda presenter|Krinkle}} Is that based on mediawiki/core and grouping authors by org association? * {{Agenda presenter|Derk-Jan Hartman}} Yeah the foundation has really closed down * {{Agenda presenter|Mehrdad Pourzaki}} Wiki conference season 🙂 * {{Agenda presenter|Bryan Hilderbrand}} Time check. About 1 minute. We need to wrap up :) * {{Agenda presenter|Derk-Jan Hartman}} exactly * {{Agenda presenter|Bernhard Krabina}} Hope to see many of you at #SMWCon: https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/SMWCon_Fall_2021 * {{Agenda presenter|Antoine Musso}} Thank you to have organized this session! * {{Agenda presenter|Mehrdad Pourzaki}} Thank you all for being here * {{Agenda presenter|Bryan Hilderbrand}} Thanks Maryana!!! * {{Agenda presenter|Richard Heigl}} Thank you all. * {{Agenda presenter|Derk-Jan Hartman}} Good point Mark ! * {{Agenda presenter|Greg Rundlett}} I want to welcome Maryana and wish Good Luck!
