This update, which has been a long-time request from the Commons community, will make it much easier to view, search, edit, organize and re-use Commons files, and will turn Commons in a truly multilingual resource. Further, this update will dramatically improve the way in which volunteers and affiliates can partner with cultural institutions (GLAMs), bringing profound changes to upload processes and metrics, and adding entirely new features and possibilities for further tooling (such as better tools for crowdsourcing, and 'live' synchronization between GLAM databases and Commons).","facilitator_array":["Sandra Fauconnier","Pam Drouin","Liam Wyatt"],"facilitators":"Sandra Fauconnier, Pam Drouin, Liam Wyatt","location":"Britz","pathways":"","scheduleblock":"friday-session-block-2","space":"Capacity Building & Learning Track","start":"13:30","end":"15:45","notes url":"https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2018/Program/47","programmatic":"true"},{"id":"400","day":"Friday","title":"Community Capacity Map workshop","description":"he Wikimedia Foundation recently started a self-assessment exercise to map around 40 different capacities across all communities, user groups, and chapters.

But it is much more: A case study about how to invent new ideas and build a movement in 3 days.\nIn this session we want to share what we’ve learned by organizing goatification. We will distill the main lessons learned and apply them to core questions of the Wikimedia Movement and the Movement Strategy: How can we attract new contributors and retain experienced contributors from diverse backgrounds? What makes collaboration fun for everyone? How can we build new partnerships, experiment with new approaches and formats and get ready for the ecosystem of Open Knowledge?\nNo goat knowledge is required to attend this session.","facilitator_array":["Birgit Müller","Rachel Farrand"],"facilitators":"Birgit Müller, Rachel Farrand","location":"Körner 1","pathways":"","scheduleblock":"friday-evening","space":"Capacity Building & Learning Track","start":"16:15","end":"17:15","notes url":"https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2018/Program/44","programmatic":"true"},{"id":"310","day":"Friday","title":"New Challenges for supporting Wikimedians","description":"From discussions around strategy, but also through the input of individual volunteers, the Support & Safety Team of the Foundation has become aware of new needs on how to support and ensure the safety of Wikimedians around the world.

This session works along a similar principle: within our movement, there is great potential for collaboration on projects and programs among the affiliates. However, finding a good partner within our movement is not always easy!\nThis session has a solution to this problem: come with your concrete idea for a cross-affiliate partnership and leave with a new set of partners from within the movement. In this session, we will open and facilitate a partnerships market. The market place will allow participants to present their partnership idea, get introduced to many other ideas for cross-affiliate partnerships, and finally, find a suitable partner and get to work!\nIdeally, already come prepared with a concrete idea for a cross-affiliate partnership you would like to explore!","facilitator_array":["Julia Kirchner"],"facilitators":"Julia Kirchner","location":"Britz","pathways":"","scheduleblock":"saturday-session-block-1","space":"Movement Partnerships","start":"10:00","end":"12:00","notes url":"https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2018/Program/14","programmatic":"true"},{"id":"370","day":"Saturday","title":"Technical Tools For Programs, Events, and Grants","description":"Tools are pieces of software developed by our community that let you do things you can't do with the wiki alone.They can help you be more productive on-wiki, run events or collect metrics for them.\nJames Hare, from the Cloud services team at the Wikimedia Foundation, will present on what tools are out there? How do we find them?\nLeon Ziemba and Trevor Bolliger of the Wikimedia Foundation’s Community Tech team are going to share recent news about our software development of 2 specific tools for Wikimedia Grant recipients, Program organizers, and Event facilitators.\nThe Grant Metrics tool will be available in beta by the Wikimedia Conference. The goal is to provide an easy-to-use interface for collecting metrics about a set of users over a given time frame, in particular grant-based events. We’d like to demo what we have, and collect feedback on missing features and the user experience.\nThe Programs and Events Dashboard is already used by volunteers around the world, but the Community Tech team will soon be addressing the most frustrating workflows with improvements. We aim to make it easier for program organizers to arrange and share information with others and for event participants to track their progress and edits. We look forward to receiving feedback from session attendees about our proposed changes to the Dashboard.\nAt the end of the session, all 3 presenters will gather feedback that focuses on participants’ needs for tools, as community organizers and outreach experts, and what our technical teams can do to make all of our work easier.","facilitator_array":["James Hare","Leon Ziemba","Trevor Bolliger"],"facilitators":"James Hare, Leon Ziemba, Trevor Bolliger","location":"Schulenburg","pathways":"","scheduleblock":"saturday-session-block-1","space":"Capacity Building & Learning Track","start":"10:00","end":"11:00","notes url":"https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2018/Program/37","programmatic":"true"},{"id":"380","day":"Saturday","title":"Exploring privilege through autobiographies","description":"This session will engage participants in a conversation about the factors that make up our identity.

We know that when educators have students contribute to Wikimedia projects as part of their classroom learning, they acquire valuable skills for life like digital literacy, information literacy, critical thinking, collaboration, and many more. Wikipedia and its sister projects contribute to digital equity in education while at the same time, educators and students are contributing to knowledge equity. By fostering the relationship between the Wikimedia movement and education, we can create a world where everyone not only has access to knowledge, but has the skills necessary to succeed in the 21st century.\nConsidering a shared understanding of the Wikimedia movement, this workshop will provide participants with resources to engage educators with our movement, and how it is working to close gaps in digital equality, knowledge equity, and even the gender divide. Using a Wiki page created especially for this workshop, participants will engage with the five dimensions of digital equity[1] to interpret a case study about a Wikipedia education project. By the end of this workshop participants will gain a broad understanding of digital equity challenges in education at the global level. They will be able to explain how Wikimedia is addressing digital equity, and will be able to explain how Wikimedia projects can be used to close gaps in educational inequalities.","facilitator_array":["Nichole Saad"],"facilitators":"Nichole Saad","location":"Körner 1","pathways":"","scheduleblock":"saturday-session-block-2","space":"Capacity Building & Learning Track","start":"14:00","end":"15:00","notes url":"https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2018/Program/30","programmatic":"true"},{"id":"350","day":"Saturday","title":"What I learned from interviewing 20 event organizers from around the world about how to run really engaging events","description":"Have you ever been to an event that wasn't as thoughtful as it could be?
