This Friday, I'll be speaking at #MozFest2021 w/ @credcoalition's #wikicred about my work w/ @datajournalism and @artandfeminism. Tickets are free. Link to join schedule.mozillafestival.org/session/NH7LNH…
The conversation will largely be about the relationship between #Wikimedia projects (mostly Wikipedia & Wikidata it seems) & credibility in the information ecosystem. Panelists are doing projects on ways to improve citations, a citation "bias checker," & user-experience research.
I'll talk about @artandfeminism #wikicred research on shortcomings of user-governance, specifically problems w what counts as "reliable source" in French, English & Spanish Wikipedias. Sources about marginalized communities can be excluded by source interpretation & patrol work
And I'll explain my long-form writing for @datajournalism, translating the inner workings of Wikimedia projects for data journalists, & naming the good, bad & ugly of #wikidata and #wikipedia
A lot to cover -- should be a great conversation. No doubt new insights, ah-ha moments, and collaborations will come out of it. Thanks to @AhmedMedien for organizing and facilitating.
The @artandfeminism research project, Reading Together, is funded by #wikicred, & my co-researchers are Amber Berson and @meltamani. We share our research here readingtogetheraf.medium.com
