Interventions
View it! is a suit of media search tools to show Wikimedia users (both editors and readers) Wikimedia Commons depicting - or otherwise related to- the article they are viewing. We will demonstrate how to install View it! and use it's functionality to add images across Wikimedia projects and discuss functionality and language localization.
This roundtable will share the experiences of various Wikimedians in Residence (WiR). Roles, challenges, best practices, and tools they have used in their work with Wikipedia, Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons, and other projects. New initiatives, whether local or global in nature as well as strategy to expand the impact of WIR will be on the table as well.
Discussion with the wider Wikimedia community is encouraged, even expected, in order to share best practices related to new developments and how does the work of WIRs advance the Wikimedia goals, and finds way in the 2030 strategy implementations.
