Scholars & scientists - 340 academic subject matter experts improve wikipedia and wikidata in areas of high demand. Work in this program includes training academics in how to contribute their knowledge to wikipedia or wikidata as well as tracking and resolving any incidents that arise from this activity.
Partnerships & outreach - we collaborate with organizations including academic associations, research networks, professional organizations, and other nonprofit organizations - as they promote the use of wikipedia and wikidata among their members; individual subject matter experts are encouraged to share their knowledge with the general public. Work includes building and maintaining institutional partnerships as well as recruitment of individual scholars and scientists.
Digital services - we develop and maintain a platform that empowers tens of thousands of users to contribute content to wikimedia projects and track their impact. This includes user research and product planning, development of new and existing features, user testing, and fixing software bugs. We also use technology and design to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of our student program, scholars & scientists, and partnerships & outreach activities.
