2019:活动设计
项目设计
在2019维基年会主题公告之后,这份文件描述了我们为维基媒体年会项目设计作出的一些令人欣喜的改变。今年的维基媒体年会项目组成将拥有平行主题“空间”,强烈关注实践和协作会议。
新的结构
隨著維基年會多年來的成長和漸趨成熟,年會的實體型態也相對穩定。傳統上,中央計劃委員會會提出普遍性的「意見徵集」;而絕大多數提交的意見都是以「演講」格式演繹的。由於大會的時間與空間上的限制,大約會有三分之二的提交內容不得不被拒絕。一旦審查後接受提交的意見,那麼就會安排到與其類似主題會談中。
今年,斯德哥尔摩维基年会主办团队将尝试一些新的主意⋯
詳情
我们认为,今年的会议主题需要一种面向未来,协作,积极并专注于实际问题解决的格式,而不是集中控制的计划,而不是针对个人,回顾性展示和被动受众。目标成果应该是能够在个人活动中最有效地实现的成果,即:实践培训,学习,思想共享和跨文化合作。
今年的节目将包括一系列平行的空间,又名轨道或座谈会,每个都集中在一个特定的主题区域(下面的例子),在场地内有自己的专用房间,它自己的领导和一个小团队,帮助建立和推广他们的具体计划。这部分受到其他开源社区活动的启发,例如MozFest。
空间与领导者
所有空间的内容将主要关注活跃的格式,包括辅助/培训研讨会,讨论论坛会议,分组讨论组 - 偶尔邀请主题领域专家进行会谈。每个空间的持续时间为一天,两天或三天,具体取决于其范围。我们将首先呼吁提出协调这些空间的提案,而不是要求演示强调其参与性和主动性。
在维基媒体国际会议核心团队的支持下,每个空间的领导者将帮助确定他们自己的计划的需求、会议的数量,谁将领导这些会议,期望的主题领域等。因此,最终的计划将更积极主动地策划,而不是像过去的维基百科那样对提交作出反应的单一委员会。将鼓励每个空间的领导者吸引对该主题感兴趣的人,帮助他们在活动期间建立自己的计划和便利。
一旦选择了这些空间的主题和领导者,将创建会议维基上的页面,其中可以进行提交。根据每个太空领导人所定义的需求,而不是整个计划委员会,这些提交将针对个人空间。总的来说,这组太空领袖,维基媒体Sverige会议经理(Eric Luth和节目主持人[[[User:Wittylama|Wittylama]]),是计划团队。这个团队确保整个计划的连贯性,实用性以及它解决了主题。通过团队合作,我们可以确保该计划的形式,内容和促进者各不相同。
目標
我们希望对程序格式的这种改变将:
- 增加所讨论内容的多样性;
- 利用身体上最宝贵的资源,最大限度地发挥优势;
- 允许更多人通过共同创造对项目的“所有权”感;
- 给予Wikimania更明确的目的,使其结果更具可测量性;
- 使非维基媒体的参与者和外部联盟组织更多地参与。
与会者仍然可以自由地在空间之间移动。最大的房间Aula Magna将举行全体会议,还将展出一系列代表所有不同空间的精选演讲。这个房间将在线直播。 每个太空领导者都能够从他们的主题领域提名一个会话,以显示在这个“标题”轨道中。
海报讲演
来自2018年维基媒体国际会议全体海报会议的反馈意见表明,参与者赞赏在他们的海报前与他们的观众互动一个接一个,更长的时间,更深入比在一个小组的简短演讲中可能。因此,我们将继续这种方法并进一步扩展它。海报会议将是与会者在会议上展示自己项目的主要场所。全体海报会议使得更多的提交被接受,因为它们同时呈现,并允许那些对公共演讲或英语不太自信的人充分参与。
Spaces will still have some scope for traditional presentations (e.g. prepared talk accompanied by slides + Q&A), and there will still be "lightning talks" sessions.

已提交的空间提案
The call for proposals for Spaces, and their respective leaders is done via an online form. However, in the interests of transparency, and collaboration, the topic, description and leader's preferred name for ALL submissions will be published below, updated regularly:
As of 22 March, there are 31 proposals yet submitted (published in the order that they were submitted):
提议的主题 | 简介 | 领导者 |
---|---|---|
语言 | In the spirit of UNESCO's International Year of Indigenous Languages, this space focuses on language issues, though not limited to indigenous languages. Potential presentation topics include Wikidata lexicography, i18n, outreach to underserved language communities and sessions on re-use of material (templates, modules, etc.) across several language wikis. | Jon Harald Søby (WMNO), MF-Warburg, Rémy Gerbet WMFr and Shangkuanlc |
Data Science | A crash course into the world of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science. This is a technically-aligned space but it's intended for people who are just getting into the field of AI. In line with the sustainable development goal of innovation, this space will teach participants on how to begin with their journey with machine learning; picking up basics of how models work, how data is processed and how Python is used to work with this. Over the next few years, AI will increasingly play a role in how it affects our lives and the Wikimedia movement, and you can be the one to find out how it can change Wikipedia! | |
多样性 | This space will include topic areas such as (alphabetically): age, differently-abled, gender, geography, language, race, social economic status, etc. In this regard, it will include conversations regarding capacity building, community health, partnerships, resources, roles, revenue, technology, etc. | Camelia.boban, Comp1089, Jamie Tubers Netha Hussain |
健康 | Sessions about efforts to improve Wikipedia's health content. Plus discussions of distribution of Wikipedia to those without access to the Internet. | Wiki Project Med (Esh77 and Doc James) |
教育 | The Wikipedia & Education User Group is a global group that facilitates, supports, and advocates for implementing Wikipedia and its sister projects into the educational and academic curricula in both the Wikimedia Movement and outside of it, in the Open Education and Open Knowledge movements. Considering UNESCO’s SDGs, as well as our own strategic process striving for “Knowledge as Service” and “Knowledge equity”, this space will connect individuals, affiliates and like-minded partners and organization looking at implementing Wikimedia projects as a teaching and learning platforms. | Wikipedia & Education User Group |
环境可持续性 | This space will look at the connections between Free Knowledge and environmental sustainability: How can the Wikimedia Movement play a role in the struggle towards a more environmentally sustainable future through providing resources, partnerships, and leading by example? | Lukas Mezger; Joy Agyepong |
文件记录 | Wikisource year in review panel; Wikisource workshop Bring Your Own Book; Wikisource as citation buildout for Wikipedia | Slowking4; VIGNERON |
a11y:组成与标准 | Accessibility - fondly called a11y - is an effort to design and create websites that can be used by everyone. The impact of a11y on web technologies can never be overemphasized as it supports assistive technologies to interpret web pages. When curating content for the web, Be open to accessibility in your audience and any accessibility issues. Basically, be aware that some of your audience might not be able to: see well or at all, hear well or at all, move well or at all, speak well or at all, or understand information presented in some ways well or at all. | Eyitayo Alimi; Kayode Yussuf |
GLAM/文化伙伴关系 | The GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums) and Cultural Partnerships space aims to cover the breadth of cultural and heritage-related activities in the movement, either through external partnerships or our own community initiatives. Through mini-keynotes, lightning talks, case studies, skills training, identifying critical challenges and group brainstorming sessions, the space will employ a number of approaches to engage Wikimedia community members, and those new to the movement, in how to improve content in the artistic, cultural and heritage domains. | Andrew Lih (Wikimedia DC); Giovanna Fontenelle; Jenn Sutcliffe; co-leaders TBD. |
信息和隐私的审查 | We are increasingly seen a new wave of censorship of information around Wikipedia and free knowledge around the world, with the block of Wikipedia in Turkey (2017 - ongoing) and Venezuela (2019), we need an space to swiftly address this issue, and how or volunteers can fight back in the environment of (mostly) repressive governments, safeguarding their anonymity in favor of free knowledge. | Oscar Costero and Basak Tosun |
减小差距 | Aim of this space is to establish international "Partnerships for the Goals". What can we do to reduce gaps in content, gaps in community, or else? Let's discuss best practices and new projects (to reduce gender gap, ..., international GLAM projects) The space is open to all forms of participation. Let us create a vision of tomorrow and bring it on the way today. | 1rhb; co-leader TBD. |
多重媒体的知识 | Free knowledge does not only use text as a medium but is increasingly shared in the form of graphic, photography, video and sound to name just a few. Storing, curating and using knowledge on a non written format (such as audios & videos) is something that has been consistently asked by people dealing with cultures that do not follow the usual occidental paradigm, be them tribes in Africa & Latin America or minor language speakers in Europe, which often share the same problems. Especially all kinds of minor languages profit a lot from non-written material. This helps to strengthen inclusivity and diversity in all Wikimedia projects. Wikimania should include a space to host multimedia content creators and curators from all projects dealing with such content. Possible topics for talks, workshops and meetings are photography and photo editing, use of video and audio in Wiki projects, proper curation of media with structured data, oral knowledge collection and many more. | MB-one; co-leader DarwIn |
质量 | Any and all aspects of the quality of content on the Wikimedia projects: challenges, successes, initiatives, and tools, to assess, map, improve, and encourage the increase of quality of content on the projects. (Not just Wikipedia!)
Some questions we might address in this space: how do we evaluate the quality of different kinds of content (such as environmental or social topics) across different language Wikipedias, and how do we convey that to readers? What are tools for checking and indicating quality in Wikidata or Commons? As we approach the 20th anniversary of Wikipedia, how does quality relate to the long-term sustainability and maintenance of our projects? What are ways we can use improving quality as an outreach tool? And what does quality mean to different projects, languages, and topics? |
Ijon and Phoebe |
维基媒体计划内外的技术推广 | An exploration of who we are as a free software community, which tools we work on, where are we heading, what we could improve, and which strategies we could develop to build bridges within the FOSS (free and open-source software) communities. Sessions on how we can become more connected to other open source communities and how we can improve the access to advanced tools to non-coders. It would include presentations and workshops about tech we develop, on best practices for fostering technical contributions in the Wikimedia communities and reaching out to other technical communities in the FOSS world. It would differ from traditional hackathons especially as we intend to focus on the social aspect of our technical communities. Technical contributions and outreach are very inclusive terms for us, including writting mediawiki patches, tools, scripts, templates, queries (SPARQL and SQL especially), map building, data science analysis, organizing technical meetups, providing technical resources for communities, participating in technological mentoring programs (eg: Outreachy, and GSoC), and several others. | Chicocvenancio; Contraexemplo; SSethi |
对活动组织者的支持与帮助 | The Movement Directions with its focus on Knowledge Equity and Knowledge as a Service requires a greater range of community facilitators -- of people leading and facilitating development of existing communities and reaching out to include new communities. To address key knowledge gaps and engage global allies, such as those working on the UNESCO goals, we need to involve more partners, communities, and types of knowledge contribution. To do this, both our local and global communities to acknowledge, support and integrate a wide group of organizers and other community leaders who support communities in activities outside of the Wikis. This space is about exploring how communities currently identify, train, and support organizers, and about thinking about the needs for growing this network of organizing contributors as part of the Movement Direction. | Alex Stinson; co leader TBD |
增进安全性 | We welcome sessions about safe growth, protecting vulnerable groups of contributors, technical or other solutions to fight harassment, mitigating risks at events and from beyond the movement, protecting oneself when contributing in difficult environments, sessions about where to find help, sharing resources and solutions around safety on local wikis. | Christel Steigenberger; Mardetanha; HakanIST; DerHexer |
性别福利 | In order to achieve SDG 1 to 5 the Gender Balance is the key issue. This will not be a space for women only as we can only get there together with men. Gender is key for our future as many studies show it. We cannot allow us to leave anybody behind whether it is a woman, a man or a child. As it was put at the United Nations at the CSW63 we need pushing back the push back. | Sandra Becker; Jalu. |
开放数据以解决北欧-波罗的海地区的腐败问题 | The aim of this space is to discuss the potential use and impact of open government data in monitoring and detecting political corruption in the Nordic-Baltic region. We propose to: (1) discuss the potential for open data to enhance legislation and policies related to Lobbying, Political Financing, Conflict of interest, Financial Disclosure, Public Procurement, and Corporate Ownership. (2) Discuss Nordic and Baltic initiatives that use open data to prevent corruption. (3) Conduct a workshop discussing: i) how to overcome barriers to reuse of data (political, organisational, technical, financial, legal); ii) the relevance of data for key stakeholders (civil society, journalism and academia); iii) how to assess the impact of open data. | Alina Ostling; Toni Mickiewicz (Open Knowledge Sweden) & Transparency International Latvia |
维基媒体计划+图书馆 | The Wikimedia + Libraries space will explore and invite projects, processes, collaborations, and best practices, that contribute to the intersection of Wikimedia and Libraries. This space will serve as a platform for Wikimedians who are enthusiastic about improving access to sources, and libraries (including related organisations such IFLA) + databases such as JSTOR or Internet Archive—who are passionate about opening up their knowledge galaxies to explore opportunities of mutual benefit. Eventually, help Wikimedia to attain "Knowledge Equity" and be able to provide "Knowledge as a Service." | KCVelaga; co-leader TBD |
合作伙伴 | The Partnership space will be organized in partnership, to discuss and develop the vision of the Big Open Movement. Our aim will be to better understand existing partnerships and design potential new ones, especially with partners working on SDGs.We will also discuss a shared strategy for a broad partnership of Big Open organizations that would allow us to achieve greater collective impact in the face of an increasingly commercialized and morally compromised internet. In order to do this, we will discuss our changing approaches to open - the core value behind our activities, and how it can be filled with new meaning. We want this space to be collectively created with WIkimedia partner organizations and movements. | Nicola Zeuner, WMDE; Alek Tarkowski |
跨越国家、地区以及多元文化的项目和合作 | This space will be focused on sharing experiences about multiple projects that were carried out by members of different chapters, countries and projects as well proposing new ideas for the future. Also it would be possible to ask, how comparable organizations work in this field. | Marcus Cyron; BugWarp |
对自由知识运动的全球性倡导:趋势,挑战和机遇 | Wikimedia doesn't exist in a vacuum, so how do we create the legal/policy environment for flourishing free knowledge now and in the future? How can we make access to knowledge better on a systemic level as global community? We aim to host a space for experts, academics, policy-makers, community leaders, and anyone with a curiosity about law, policy, and advocacy to come together to work on answers to this broad question. | Stephen LaPorte; Jan Gerlach; Anna Mazgal; Dimitar Parvanov Dimitrov; Amelia Sanchez-Moran; Jacob Rogers; Allison Davenport; Douglas Scott |
维基媒体项目内的图书馆 | A non-exhaustive list of ideas that could fit in this space: 1) National Libraries and Wikidata: a round up of experiences from National Libraries that are experimenting with exposing data in Wikidata. Can we see any patterns in achievements and barriers? We could naturally expect the National Library of Sweden to participate but also the National Library of Wales, German National Library, and perhaps others (especially if we start recruiting sooner rather than later). This session would also be attractive to national libraries that have not yet looked at Wikidata or that are just beginning to explore options. 2) The relationship between Wikidata and Bibframe: Bibframe is a replacement for the MARC standard, built on linked data principles. This would be a panel discussion (or a follow on to the National Library session?) exploring the relationship between Wikidata and Bibframe for libraries. 3) AMA ("ask me anything") - a safe space for librarians and friends. Many librarians have jumped in with both feet into editing and contributing to Wikipedia / Wikidata / Commons. This is an opportunity to have your questions about policies and norms asked and answered! 4) Mapping from Dublin Core to Structured Data on Commons: Many digital library systems are based on Dublin Core (or some variation of it). Speakers could address how they might approach mapping from systems that support Dublin Core into Structured Data Commons. 4) Education happens in libraries: Wiki Education programs have a lot in common and to offer to librarians who support information / digital literacy on campus. Learn how librarians are natural allies for Wiki Education! | Merrilee Proffitt; Co-leader TBD |
预见和长期考虑:在一个不确定的世界中我们的处境 | Both the Strategic Direction and Sustainable Development Goals focus on the 2030 time horizon. But what will the world look like in 2030? What are the alternative futures we can imagine? And what decisions do we need to make today with that foresight? Sessions in this space might include: workshops to conceive scenarios depicting the world in 2030, discussions on how the Wikimedia movement might navigate those futures, and other ways to facilitate long-term thinking and futures literacy in the movement. | Guillaume Paumier; co-leader TBD |
维基媒体2030-通向我们未来的道路 | In 2017, we set ourselves an ambitious goal of becoming the essential infrastructure of the ecosystem of free knowledge, and now we need a path for how we get there. In the spirit of what got us started we work together to find our path. Nine working groups from our global community are identifying how we need to adapt our structures and maximizing our movement’s potential in the fields of Roles & Responsibilities, Revenue Streams, Resource Allocation, Capacity Building, Partnerships, Diversity, Product & Technology, Community Health, and Advocacy. At Wikimania – according to the current timeline – working groups will have developed drafts of guidance for concrete changes in these areas. We invite everyone interested in contributing to the future of Wikimedia to bring in their perspectives, expertise, and questions and to engage with the Working Groups, with the Core Team, and with other strategy enthusiasts. | Nicole Ebber, Kaarel Vaidla; together with the Movement Strategy Core Team and Working Groups |
所有维基媒体年会的回忆 | Total recall of all Wikimania space will be a flashback of all Wikimania events from 2005 till 2018, discussing how much we have achieved from the first Wikimania till the last Wikimania in terms of the best of knowledge shared and presented in the form of presentations, workshops, feedback and suggestions that were discussed after each Wikimania events. An analysis will be done in this space by experts, academics, policy-makers, community leaders, and frequent attendees of Wikimania about how much and how far we have achieved as our ultimate Sustainable Development Goals focus on the 2030 and beyond. Sessions can be mini-keynotes, lightning talks, workshops and discussion on case studies, identifying critical challenges if any. | Marajozkee; Kclibrarian. |
增加维基媒体计划的全球阅读量 | Understanding and serving potential Wikimedia readers in countries where access to the internet is quickly growing. Among other challenges, lack of name recognition impedes the Wikimedia movement's ability to invite new readers, contributors, and advocates to join our communities. If you don't know about Wikipedia, how can you use it, contribute to it, or advocate for it? You can do a lot to bring new readers to Wikimedia projects where you live through video campaigns, radio shows, new product features, and more. This space would be a session to share completed, ongoing, and upcoming projects to bring new readers to Wikimedia. Sessions about how we can work together to bring more people to Wikimedia projects. Examples: using social media to raise awareness, offline projects to raise awareness, how new readers use our content... | Anne Gomez; Rupika Sharma |
技术革新 | Wikimedians are change-averse, but our needs are constantly evolving and changing. How do we innovate and change our technology to meet those needs, without leaving our existing users behind? Session could include case studies of previous technical changes, suggestions of the future of the Gadget or Toolforge infrastructure, etc. | Legoktm; co-leader TBD |
社会行动主义与维基百科 | Since the dawn of Web 2.0, active citizens have enjoyed access to a plethora of online tools for advancing their causes. Blogs, wikis and social media have shaped the way global online communities gain access to news and information. Have we grasped the role Wikipedia can play in this landscape? The purpose of this Space shall be to host case studies and discussions on what has already been done, what worked and what backfired and ideally, a brainstorming session on how the Wikimedia projects can help educate and motivate citizens to help build a better world for all. | Mina Theofilatou; SunshineBanana21000 |
社群增长 | People in our movement have been working hard to make Wikimedia communities sustainable by recruiting and retaining newcomers to the projects. Wikimedians have been running local events, evolving our software, and working to improve the processes and culture on our wikis -- but we still have a long way to go. We will come together for discussions, presentations, and workshops that address these questions: What is and is not working around attracting and retaining newcomers? How should Wikimedia activities evolve to help communities grow and flourish? How should our technology and culture evolve to help new populations to come online and participate? We will discuss experiences from Wikimedians and their projects, findings from research, and results from affiliates’ and chapters’ work and translate them into ideas and best practices that Wikimedians can bring back to their communities. | Marshall Miller, Verena Lindner, Christine Domgörgen, Jonathan Morgan; community co-leaders TBD |
调查 | This space will seek to accomplish three distinct goals: (1) present completed and in progress actionable research projects by people conducting research on Wikimedia projects and in adjacent spaces; (2) provide a series of tutorials to help Wikimedians and researchers learn to use a series of useful tools for collecting and analyzing data from Wikimedia projects; (3) provide a space to discuss issues related to doing research in Wikimedia projects. The Research track will include four types of sessions: Presentations of Research (~ 1 day); Tutorials (~1 day); Research Lightning Talks (60-90 minute session); A Research "Town Hall" Meeting (60-90 minute session) | Leila Zia; Benjamin Mako Hill |
