Readers of news and social media often turn to Wikipedia as a secondary resource for supporting or clarifying information, and this is reflected in the patterns of page views and edits on the online encyclopaedia. Wikipedia is also not just a vast repository of information; it is a network of interconnected articles that exists within the broader ecosystem of the World Wide Web. To fully comprehend the dynamics of online popularity, we must study how individuals navigate between articles and how external platforms drive traffic to Wikipedia, not just Wikipedia articles (or alternative online records) in isolation. In this talk, I will review research on how major news events spark networked surges of collective attention to Wikipedia articles, how Twitter users both navigate and contribute to Wikipedia in response to viral social media content, and how we can combine data from Reddit and Wikipedia to study patterns of attention towards current events, influxes of traffic from social media towards Wikipedia, and the use of Wikipedia in discussions on social media.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p><br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Architectural_styles_of_curiosity_in_global_Wikipedia_mobile_app_readership">Architectural styles of curiosity in global Wikipedia mobile app readership</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Dale Zhou, University of California, Irvine</i> <dl><dd>A historico-philosophical examination of texts over two millennia previously revealed three styles of curiosity: the wandering “busybody”, the targeted “hunter,” and the creative “dancer.” In this talk, I will review network signatures of these three styles from an analysis of 482,760 readers using Wikipedia’s mobile app in 14 languages from 50 countries or territories. By measuring the structure of knowledge networks constructed by readers weaving a thread through articles in Wikipedia, we expand upon prior work in the laboratory that found evidence for distinct knowledge network architectures constructed by each curiosity style. Moreover, we found associations, globally, between the structure of knowledge networks and population-level indicators of spatial navigation, education, mood, well-being, and inequality. This presentation will describe how these findings advance our understanding of Wikipedia’s global readership and demonstrate how cultural and geographical properties of the digital environment relate to different styles of curiosity. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adn3268">https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adn3268</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-2024-Archive"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-2024-Archive"></span>2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-2024-Archive"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="December_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-December_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-December_2024-2024"></span>December 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-December_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: December 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, December 11, 17:00 UTC (slight time change due to NeurIPS Conference overlap): Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1733936400">here</a>.</dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd><b>AI for Wikipedia</b></dd></dl> <p><b>December 11, 2024</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://youtube.com/live/_hk6KLD-0tg?feature=share"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Language_Models_for_Wikimedia-_A_Report_from_the_Trenches_and_a_Call_to_Arms">Language Models for Wikimedia- A Report from the Trenches and a Call to Arms</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Bob West, EPFL</i> <dl><dd>I will showcase LLM-based solutions my lab has built for tackling problems on Wikipedia (e.g., fact extraction, generation of article descriptions and edit summaries), highlighting practical challenges linked to applying such solutions in vivo.

We address this question by comparing three Indian language Wikipedias, namely, Malayalam, Marathi, and Kannada. We found that although the three projects share goals, technological infrastructure, and a similar set of challenges, Malayalam Wikipedia’s community engages language speakers in contributing at a much higher rate than the others. Drawing from a grounded theory analysis of interviews with 18 community participants from the three projects, we found that experience with participatory governance and free/open-source software in the Malayalam community supported high engagement of contributors. Counterintuitively, we found that financial resources intended to increase participation in the Marathi and Kannada communities hindered the growth of these communities. Our findings underscore the importance of social and cultural context in the trajectories of peer production communities. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3491102.3501832">https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3491102.3501832</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p><br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Low-Resource_Languages_and_Online_Knowledge_Repositories-_A_Need-Finding_Study">Low-Resource Languages and Online Knowledge Repositories- A Need-Finding Study</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Hellina Hailu Nigatu, UC Berkeley</i> <dl><dd>Online Knowledge Repositories (OKRs) like Wikipedia offer communities a way to share and preserve information about themselves and their ways of living. However, for communities with low-resourced languages—including most African communities—the quality and volume of content available are often inadequate. One reason for this lack of adequate content could be that many OKRs embody Western ways of knowledge preservation and sharing, requiring many low-resourced language communities to adapt to new interactions. In this talk, we will go through findings from two studies: (1) a thematic analysis of Wikipedia forum discussions and (2) a contextual inquiry study with 14 novice contributors who create content in low-resourced languages. We will focus on three Ethiopian languages: Afan Oromo, Amharic, and Tigrinya. Our analysis revealed several recurring themes; for example, contributors struggle to find resources to corroborate their articles in low-resourced languages, and language technology support, like translation systems and spellcheck, result in several errors that waste contributors’ time. Based on our analysis, we will also outline design opportunities for building better language support tools and interfaces for low-resourced language speakers. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3613904.3642605">https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3613904.3642605</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="October_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-October_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-October_2024-2024"></span>October 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-October_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: October 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, October 16, 16:30 UTC: Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1729096200">here</a></dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd><b>Wikipedia for Political and Election Analysis</b></dd></dl> <p><b>October 16, 2024</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://youtube.com/live/61j55R7UZZA?feature=share"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Throw_Your_Hat_in_the_Ring_(of_Wikipedia):_Exploring_Urban-Rural_Disparities_in_Local_Politicians'_Information_Supply">Throw Your Hat in the Ring (of Wikipedia): Exploring Urban-Rural Disparities in Local Politicians' Information Supply</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Akira Matsui, Yokohama National University</i> <dl><dd>This talk explores the socio-economic factors contributing to disparities in the supply of local political information on Wikipedia.

Assuming a simple model of tag assignment, we estimate the locations of parties and ideologies in a common space. We find that the recovered scale can be interpreted in familiar terms of "left versus right." Estimated party positions correlate well with ratings of parties' positions from extant large-scale expert surveys, most strongly with ratings of general left-right ideology. Party position estimates also show high stability in a test-retest scenario. Our results demonstrate that a Wikipedia-based approach yields valid and reliable left-right scores comparable to scores obtained via conventional expert coding methods. It thus provides a measure with potentially unlimited party coverage. Our measurement strategy is also applicable to other entities. <ul><li>Code: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://github.com/hdigital/partypositions-wikitags">https://github.com/hdigital/partypositions-wikitags</a></li> <li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://doi.org/10.1017/pan.2021.28">https://doi.org/10.1017/pan.2021.28</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="September_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-September_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-September_2024-2024"></span>September 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-September_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: September 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, September 18, 16:30 UTC: Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1726677000">here</a></dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd><b>Curation of Wikimedia AI Datasets</b></dd></dl> <p><b>September 18, 2024</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://youtube.com/live/USzLGJ5LLC8?feature=share"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Supporting_Community-Driven_Data_Curation_for_AI_Evaluation_on_Wikipedia_through_Wikibench">Supporting Community-Driven Data Curation for AI Evaluation on Wikipedia through Wikibench</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Tzu-Sheng Kuo, Carnegie Mellon University</i> <dl><dd>AI tools are increasingly deployed in community contexts. However, datasets used to evaluate AI are typically created by developers and annotators outside a given community, which can yield misleading conclusions about AI performance. How might we empower communities to drive the intentional design and curation of evaluation datasets for AI that impacts them? We investigate this question on Wikipedia, an online community with multiple AI-based content moderation tools deployed. We introduce Wikibench, a system that enables communities to collaboratively curate AI evaluation datasets, while navigating ambiguities and differences in perspective through discussion. A field study on Wikipedia shows that datasets curated using Wikibench can effectively capture community consensus, disagreement, and uncertainty. Furthermore, study participants used Wikibench to shape the overall data curation process, including refining label definitions, determining data inclusion criteria, and authoring data statements. Based on our findings, we propose future directions for systems that support community-driven data curation. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3613904.3642278">https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3613904.3642278</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p><br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="WikiContradict-_A_Benchmark_for_Evaluating_LLMs_on_Real-World_Knowledge_Conflicts_from_Wikipedia">WikiContradict- A Benchmark for Evaluating LLMs on Real-World Knowledge Conflicts from Wikipedia</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Yufang Hou, IBM Research Europe - Ireland</i> <dl><dd>Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has emerged as a promising solution to mitigate the limitations of large language models (LLMs), such as hallucinations and outdated information. However, it remains unclear how LLMs handle knowledge conflicts arising from different augmented retrieved passages, especially when these passages originate from the same source and have equal trustworthiness. In this work, we conduct a comprehensive evaluation of LLM-generated answers to questions that have varying answers based on contradictory passages from Wikipedia, a dataset widely regarded as a high-quality pre-training resource for most LLMs. Specifically, we introduce WikiContradict, a benchmark consisting of 253 high-quality, human-annotated instances designed to assess LLM performance when augmented with retrieved passages containing real-world knowledge conflicts. We benchmark a diverse range of both closed and open-source LLMs under different QA scenarios, including RAG with a single passage, and RAG with 2 contradictory passages. Through rigorous human evaluations on a subset of WikiContradict instances involving 5 LLMs and over 3,500 judgements, we shed light on the behaviour and limitations of these models. For instance, when provided with two passages containing contradictory facts, all models struggle to generate answers that accurately reflect the conflicting nature of the context, especially for implicit conflicts requiring reasoning. Since human evaluation is costly, we also introduce an automated model that estimates LLM performance using a strong open-source language model, achieving an F-score of 0.8. Using this automated metric, we evaluate more than 1,500 answers from seven LLMs across all WikiContradict instances.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="August_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-August_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-August_2024-2024"></span>August 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-August_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: August 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>No showcase due to Wikimania.</dt></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="July_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-July_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-July_2024-2024"></span>July 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-July_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section: July 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, July 24, 16:30 UTC: Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1721838600">here</a></dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd>Machine Translation on Wikipedia</dd></dl> <p><b>July 24, 2024</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://youtube.com/live/O7AqvHgqUVk?feature=share"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="The_Promise_and_Pitfalls_of_AI_Technology_in_Bridging_Digital_Language_Divide">The Promise and Pitfalls of AI Technology in Bridging Digital Language Divide</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Kai Zhu, Bocconi University</i> <dl><dd>Machine translation technologies have the potential to bridge knowledge gaps across languages, promoting more inclusive access to information regardless of native languages. This study examines the impact of integrating Google Translate into Wikipedia's Content Translation system in January 2019. Employing a natural experiment design and difference-in-differences strategy, we analyze how this translation technology shock influenced the dynamics of content production and accessibility on Wikipedia across over a hundred languages. We find that this technology integration leads to a 149% increase in content production through translation, driven by existing editors becoming more productive as well as an expansion of the editor base. Moreover, we observe that machine translation enhances the propagation of biographical and geographical information, helping to close these knowledge gaps in the multilingual context. However, our findings also underscore the need for continued efforts to mitigate the preexisting systemic barriers. Our study contributes to our knowledge on the evolving role of artificial intelligence in shaping knowledge dissemination through enhanced language translation capabilities. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4708614">https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4708614</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p><br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Implications_of_Using_Inorganic_Content_in_Arabic_Wikipedia_Editions">Implications of Using Inorganic Content in Arabic Wikipedia Editions</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Saied Alshahrani and Jeanna Matthews, Clarkson University</i> <dl><dd>Wikipedia articles (content pages) are one of the widely utilized training corpora for NLP tasks and systems, yet these articles are not always created, generated, or even edited organically by native speakers; some are automatically created, generated, or translated using Wikipedia bots or off-the-shelf translation tools like Google Translate without human revision or supervision. We first analyzed the three Arabic Wikipedia editions, Arabic (AR), Egyptian Arabic (ARZ), and Moroccan Arabic (ARY), and found that these Arabic Wikipedia editions suffer from a few serious issues, like large-scale automatic creations and translations from English to Arabic, all without human involvement, generating content (articles) that lack not only linguistic richness and diversity but also content that lacks cultural richness and meaningful representation of the Arabic language and its native speakers. We second studied the performance implications of using such inorganic, unrepresentative articles to train NLP tasks or systems, where we intrinsically evaluated the performance of two main NLP upstream tasks, namely word representation and language modeling, using word analogy and fill-mask evaluations. We found that most of the models trained on the organic and representative content outperformed or, at worst, performed on par with the models trained with inorganic content generated using bots or translated using templates included, demonstrating that training on unrepresentative content not only impacts the representation of native speakers but also impacts the performance of NLP tasks or systems. We recommend avoiding utilizing the automatically created, generated, or translated articles on Wikipedia when the task is a representation-based task, like measuring opinions, sentiments, or perspectives of native speakers, and also suggest that when registered users employ automated creation or translation, their contributions should be marked differently than “registered user” for better transparency; perhaps “registered user (automation-assisted)”. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://aclanthology.org/2023.arabicnlp-1.19.pdf">https://aclanthology.org/2023.arabicnlp-1.19.pdf</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="June_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-June_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-June_2024-2024"></span>June 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-June_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: June 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>No Research Showcase due to Wiki Workshop. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="May_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-May_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-May_2024-2024"></span>May 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-May_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: May 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, May 15, 16:30 UTC: Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1715790600">here</a></dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd>Reader to Editor Pipeline</dd></dl> <p><b>May 15, 2024</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-8CbpcwGV8"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Journey_Transitions">Journey Transitions</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Mike Raish and Daisy Chen</i> <dl><dd>What kinds of events do readers and editors identify as separating the stages of their relationship with Wikipedia, and which of these kinds of events might the Wikimedia Foundation possibly support through design interventions? In the Journey Transitions qualitative research project, the WMF Design Research team interviewed readers and editors in Arabic, Spanish, and English in order to answer these questions and provide guidance to WMF Product teams making strategic decisions. A series of semi-structured interviews revealed that readers and editors describe their relationships with Wikipedia in different ways, with readers describing a static and transactional relationship, and that even many experienced editors express confusion about core functions of the Wikimedia ecosystem, such as the role of Talk pages.

We report findings from a large-scale controlled experiment using the Newcomer Homepage, a central place where newcomers can learn how peer production works and find opportunities to contribute, and show how the effectiveness depends on the newcomer’s context.

However, their in-depth information--often in a dense text format--may not be suitable for mobile browsing, even in a responsive user interface. We propose an automatic approach that converts a structured article of any length into a set of interactive Web Stories that are ideal for mobile experiences. We focused on Wikipedia articles and developed Wiki2Story, a pipeline based on language and layout models, to demonstrate the concept. Wiki2Story dynamically slices an article and plans one to multiple Story paths according to the document hierarchy. For each slice, it generates a multi-page summary Story composed of text and image pairs in visually appealing layouts. We derived design principles from an analysis of manually created Story practices. We executed our pipeline on 500 Wikipedia documents and conducted user studies to review selected outputs. Results showed that Wiki2Story effectively captured and presented salient content from the original articles and sparked interest in viewers. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.02383">https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.02383</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="March_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-March_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-March_2024-2024"></span>March 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-March_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: March 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, March 20, 16:30 UTC: Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1710952200">here</a></dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd>Addressing Gender Gaps</dd></dl> <p><b>Wednesday, March 20, 2023</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.youtube.com/live/D6wrr9WShTk?si=Lo7CT1K81EGkv11i"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Leveraging_Recommender_Systems_to_Reduce_Content_Gaps_on_Wikipedia">Leveraging Recommender Systems to Reduce Content Gaps on Wikipedia</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Mo Houtti</i> <dl><dd>Many Wikipedians use algorithmic recommender systems to help them find interesting articles to edit. The algorithms underlying those systems are driven by a straightforward assumption: we can look at what someone edited in the past to figure out what they’ll most likely want to edit next. But the story of what Wikipedians want to edit is almost definitely more complex than that. For example, our own prior research shows that Wikipedians prefer prioritizing articles that would minimize content gaps. So, we asked, what would happen if we incorporated that value into Wikipedians’ personalized recommendations? Through a controlled experiment on SuggestBot, we found that recommending more content gap articles didn’t significantly impact editing, despite those articles being less “optimally interesting” according to the recommendation algorithm. In this presentation, I will describe our experiment, our results, and their implications - including how recommender systems can be one useful strategy for tackling content gaps on Wikipedia. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.08669">https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.08669</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p><br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Bridging_the_offline_and_online-_Offline_meetings_of_Wikipedians">Bridging the offline and online- Offline meetings of Wikipedians</span></dt></dl> <p>[<a class="external autonumber" href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:March_2024_Research_Showcase_Slides_(offline_meetings_of_Wikipedians).pdf%7Cthumb%7Cright%7Cslides">[1]</a>] </p> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Nicole Schwitter</i> <dl><dd>Wikipedia is primarily known as an online encyclopaedia, but it also features a noteworthy offline component: Wikipedia and particularly its German-language edition – which is one of the largest and most active language versions – is characterised by regular local offline meetups which give editors the chance to get to know each other. This talk will present the recently published dewiki meetup dataset which covers (almost) all offline gatherings organised on the German-language version of Wikipedia. The dataset covers almost 20 years of offline activity of the German-language Wikipedia, containing 4418 meetups that have been organised with information on attendees, apologies, date and place of meeting, and minutes recorded. The talk will explain how the dataset can be used for research, highlight the importance of considering offline meetings among Wikipedians, and place these insights within the context of addressing gender gaps within Wikipedia. <ul><li>Paper: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s42001-023-00225-8">https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s42001-023-00225-8</a></li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="February_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-February_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-February_2024-2024"></span>February 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-February_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: February 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, February 21, 16:30 UTC: Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1708533000">here</a></dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd>Platform Governance and Policies</dd></dl> <p><b>Wednesday, February 21, 2023</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.youtube.com/live/Q1xYwRw1rHU?si=zuY42MxbdCuVeHph"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Sociotechnical_Designs_for_Democratic_and_Pluralistic_Governance_of_Social_Media_and_AI">Sociotechnical Designs for Democratic and Pluralistic Governance of Social Media and AI</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Amy X. Zhang, University of Washington</i> <dl><dd>Decisions about policies when using widely-deployed technologies, including social media and more recently, generative AI, are often made in a centralized and top-down fashion. Yet these systems are used by millions of people, with a diverse set of preferences and norms. Who gets to decide what are the rules, and what should the procedures be for deciding them---and must we all abide by the same ones? In this talk, I draw on theories and lessons from offline governance to reimagine how sociotechnical systems could be designed to provide greater agency and voice to everyday users and communities. This includes the design and development of: 1) personal moderation and curation controls that are usable and understandable to laypeople, 2) tools for authoring and carrying out governance to suit a community's needs and values, and 3) decision-making workflows for large-scale democratic alignment that are legitimate and consistent.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="January_2024" data-mw-thread-id="h-January_2024-2024"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-January_2024-2024"></span>January 2024<span data-mw-comment-end="h-January_2024-2024"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Research/Showcase&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: January 2024"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Time</dt> <dd>Wednesday, January 17, 17:30 UTC: Find your local time <a class="external text" href="https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1705512600">here</a></dd> <dt>Theme</dt> <dd>Connecting Actions with Policy</dd></dl> <p><b>January 17, 2023</b> Video: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.youtube.com/live/UUuC6Q1SIoM?si=Ui_arT9nCi2zHNDk"><i>YouTube</i></a> <br style="height: 0px; clear: right;"/> </p> <dl><dt><span id="Presenting_the_report_"Unreliable_Guidelines"">Presenting the report "Unreliable Guidelines"</span></dt></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>By <i>Amber Berson and Monika Sengul-Jones</i> <dl><dd>The goal behind the report Unreliable Guidelines: Reliable Sources and Marginalized Communities in French, English and Spanish Wikipedias was to understand the effects of the set of reliable source guidelines and rules on the participation of and the content about marginalized communities on three Wikipedias.

On Wikipedia, however, this discussion is carried out publicly and the editors are encouraged to use the content moderation policies as explanations for making moderation decisions. However, currently only a few comments explicitly mention those policies. To aid in this process of understanding how content is moderated, we construct a novel multilingual dataset of Wikipedia editor discussions along with their reasoning in three languages. We demonstrate that stance and corresponding reason (policy) can be predicted jointly with a high degree of accuracy, adding transparency to the decision-making process. <ul><li>Paper: Kaffee, Lucie-Aimée, Arnav Arora, and Isabelle Augenstein. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.05779">Why Should This Article Be Deleted?
