Knowledge equity is a foundational principle of the Wikimedia movement. It drives efforts to break down the social, political, and technical barriers preventing people from accessing free knowledge. In this talk, we will see how computer vision and natural language processing can support knowledge equity and help democratize the access to free knowledge. We will look at research that can help us identify, measure and bridge knowledge gaps in Wikimedia projects. We will dive into research that studies Wikipedia through the lenses of its readers, and technologies that bridge content gaps in Wikipedia and Wikidata. We will discuss current work in these spaces, with a focus on open questions and future research. Miriam Redi is a Research Manager at the Wikimedia Foundation and Visiting Research Fellow at King's College London. Formerly, she worked as a Research Scientist at Yahoo Labs in Barcelona and Nokia Bell Labs in Cambridge. She received her PhD from EURECOM, Sophia Antipolis. She conducts research in social multimedia computing, working on fair, interpretable, multimodal machine learning solutions to improve knowledge equity.
If you are looking for information or knowledge on just about anything in the universe today, you probably may have looked up on a Wikipedia article. Since its inception in 2001, Wikipedia has grown to become the largest encyclopedia the world has ever seen. Wikipedia gets millions of page views per day, has more than 250 language versions, and includes more than 20 million articles. Its content is created and maintained by thousands of dedicated volunteer “Wikipedians” around the globe. But Wikipedia is just one of the many projects of the Wikimedia Foundation, a global nonprofit organization, with a shared mission and commitment to free knowledge and working together with various communities around the world. The GLAM–Wiki initiative (galleries, libraries, archives, museums with Wikipedia) helps cultural institutions share their resources with the world through high-impact collaboration alongside experienced Wikipedia editors. It is an unparalleled opportunity for the custodians of our cultural heritage to present their collections to new audiences. As part of our month-long celebrations for Museums and Galleries Month this October 2020, Pamana Talks has invited Mr. James Joshua V. Lim, a true-blue “Wikipedian”, former President of Wikimedia Philippines and former member of the Affiliations Committee of Wikimedia Foundation, to talk about how the Wikimedia projects has greatly enriched the physical and online collections of various galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAM) worldwide. This webinar on Friday, October 22, 8pm-9:30pm is hosted by Grupo Kalinangan and shall be streamed on Facebook Live and on our official Youtube channel. Register below to secure your slot now!

The Monthly Wikimedia Research Showcase is a public showcase of recent research by the Wikimedia Foundation's Research Team and guest presenters from the academic community. The showcase is hosted at the Wikimedia Foundation every 3rd Wednesday of the month at 9:30 Pacific Time and is live-streamed on YouTube. 🤍 Theme Disinformation and reliability of sources in Wikipedia Quality assessment of Wikipedia and its sources By Włodzimierz Lewoniewski (Poznań University of Economics and Business, Poland) Information in Wikipedia can be edited in over 300 languages independently. Therefore often the same subject in Wikipedia can be described differently depending on language edition. In order to compare information between them one usually needs to understand each of considered languages. We work on solutions that can help to automate this process. They leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms. The crucial component, however, is assessment of article quality therefore we need to know how to define and extract different quality measures. This presentation briefly introduces some of the recent activities of Department of Information Systems at Poznań University of Economics and Business related to quality assessment of multilingual content in Wikipedia. In particular, we demonstrate some of the approaches for the reliability assessment of sources in Wikipedia articles. Such solutions can help to enrich various language editions of Wikipedia and other knowledge bases with information of better quality. Modeling Popularity and Reliability of Sources in Multilingual Wikipedia, 🤍 Multilingual Ranking of Wikipedia Articles with Quality and Popularity Assessment in Different Topics , 🤍 Measures for Quality Assessment of Articles and Infoboxes in Multilingual Wikipedia, 🤍 slides on figshare Challenges on fighting Disinformation in Wikipedia Who has the (ground-)truth? By Diego Saez-Trumper (Research, Wikimedia Foundation) Different from the major social media websites where the fight against disinformation mainly refers to preventing users to massively replicate fake content, fighting disinformation in Wikipedia requires tools that allows editors to apply the content policies of: verifiability, non-original research, and neutral point of view. Moreover, while other platforms try to apply automatic fact checking techniques to verify content, the ground-truth for such verification is done based on Wikipedia, for obvious reasons we can't follow the same pipeline for fact checking content on Wikipedia. In this talk we will explain the ML approach we are developing to build tools to efficiently support wikipedians to discover suspicious content and how we collaborate with external researchers on this task. We will also describe a group of datasets we are preparing to share with the research community in order to produce state-of-the-art algorithms to improve the verifiability of content on Wikipedia.

Wikipedia Text Reuse: Within and Without By Martin Potthast, Leipzig University We study text reuse related to Wikipedia at scale by compiling the first corpus of text reuse cases within Wikipedia as well as without (i.e., reuse of Wikipedia text in a sample of the Common Crawl). To discover reuse beyond verbatim copy and paste, we employ state-of-the-art text reuse detection technology, scaling it for the first time to process the entire Wikipedia as part of a distributed retrieval pipeline. We further report on a pilot analysis of the 100 million reuse cases inside, and the 1.6 million reuse cases outside Wikipedia that we discovered. Text reuse inside Wikipedia gives rise to new tasks such as article template induction, fixing quality flaws, or complementing Wikipedia’s ontology. Text reuse outside Wikipedia yields a tangible metric for the emerging field of quantifying Wikipedia’s influence on the web. To foster future research into these tasks, and for reproducibility’s sake, the Wikipedia text reuse corpus and the retrieval pipeline are made freely available. Paper Demo Characterizing Wikipedia Reader Demographics and Interests By Isaac Johnson, Wikimedia Foundation Building on two past surveys on the motivation and needs of Wikipedia readers (Why We Read Wikipedia; Why the World Reads Wikipedia), we examine the relationship between Wikipedia reader demographics and their interests and needs. Specifically, we run surveys in thirteen different languages that ask readers three questions about their motivation for reading Wikipedia (motivation, needs, and familiarity) and five questions about their demographics (age, gender, education, locale, and native language). We link these survey results with the respondents' reading sessions i.e. sequence of Wikipedia page views to gain a more fine-grained understanding of how a reader's context relates to their activity on Wikipedia. We find that readers have a diversity of backgrounds but that the high-level needs of readers do not correlate strongly with individual demographics. We also find, however, that there are relationships between demographics and specific topic interests that are consistent across many cultures and languages. This work provides insights into the reach of various Wikipedia language editions and the relationship between content or contributor gaps and reader gaps. See the meta page for more details.

The Monthly Wikimedia Research Showcase is a public showcase of recent research by the Wikimedia Foundation's Research Team and guest presenters from the academic community. The showcase is hosted at the Wikimedia Foundation every 3rd Wednesday of the month at 9:30 a.m. Pacific Time/18:30 p.m. CET 🤍 Theme: Libraries and Wikimedia knowledge Wikipedia and Academic Libraries By Laurie Bridges (Oregon State University) In 2021 an open-access edited book, Wikipedia and Academic Libraries: A Global Project, was published, featuring 20 chapters from over 50 authors (🤍 In this presentation, Laurie Bridges, one of the co-editors, will discuss the process for creating and publishing an OA-edited book. Michael David Miller, one of the chapter authors, will discuss his chapter about contributions to local Québécois LGBTQ+ content in Francophone Wikipedia. Liaison Librarian Contribution to Local Quebecois LGBTQ+ Content in Francophone Wikipedia By Michael David Miller (McGill University) Ethical Considerations of Including Gender Information in Open Knowledge Platforms By Nerissa Lindsey (San Diego State University) In recent years, galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAMs) have sought to leverage open knowledge platforms such as Wikidata to highlight or provide more visibility for traditionally marginalized groups and their work, collections, or contributions. Efforts like Art + Feminism, local edit-a-thons, and, more recently, GLAM institution-led projects have promoted open knowledge initiatives to a broader audience of participants. One such open knowledge project, the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC) Wikidata Pilot, has brought together over seventy GLAM organizations to contribute linked open data for individuals associated with their institutions, collections, or archives. However, these projects have brought up ethical concerns around including potentially sensitive personal demographic information, such as gender identity, sexual orientation, race, and ethnicity, in entries in an open knowledge base about living persons. GLAM institutions are thus in a position of balancing open access with ethical cataloging, which should include adhering to the personal preferences of the individuals whose data is being shared. People working in libraries and archives have been increasingly focusing their energies on issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion in their descriptive practices, including remediating legacy data and addressing biased language. Moving this work into a more public sphere and scaling up in volume creates potential risks to the individuals being described. While adding demographic information on living people to open knowledge bases has the potential to enhance, highlight, and celebrate diversity, it could also potentially be used to the detriment of the subjects through surveillance and targeting activities. In our research we investigated the changing role of metadata and open knowledge in addressing, or not addressing, issues of under- and misrepresentation, especially as they pertain to gender identity as described in the sex or gender property in Wikidata. We reported our findings from a survey investigating how organizations participating in open knowledge projects are addressing ethical concerns around including personal demographic information as part of their projects, including what, if any, policies they have implemented and what implications these activities may have for the living people being described.

This is meant to be an interactive discussion with the African communities and affiliates on the opportunities of the movement governance reform. Emerging communities have often been left out by structures of power and privilege. This has to change. During the drafting of the Movement Charter African communities will have a say in decisions that will impact them for decades to come: Who will make decisions about money, technology, policy? Will the Global Council be an advisory body or a governing body? We will briefly introduce the current governance structures and then discuss scenarios for the future.

Computational Fact Checking from Knowledge Networks by Giovanni Luca Ciampaglia Traditional fact checking by expert journalists cannot keep up with the enormous volume of information that is now generated online. Fact checking is often a tedious and repetitive task and even simple automation opportunities may result in significant improvements to human fact checkers. In this talk I will describe how we are trying to approximate the complexities of human fact checking by exploring a knowledge graph under a properly defined proximity measure. Framed as a network traversal problem, this approach is feasible with efficient computational techniques. We evaluate this approach by examining tens of thousands of claims related to history, entertainment, geography, and biographical information using the public knowledge graph extracted from Wikipedia by the DBPedia project, showing that the method does indeed assign higher confidence to true statements than to false ones. One advantage of this approach is that, together with a numerical evaluation, it also provides a sequence of statements that can be easily inspected by a human fact checker. Deploying and maintaining AI in a socio-technical system. Lessons learned by Aaron Halfaker We should exercise great caution when deploying AI into our social spaces. The algorithms that make counter-vandalism in Wikipedia orders of magnitude more efficient also have the potential to perpetuate biases and silence whole classes of contributors. This presentation will describe the system efficiency characteristics that make AI so attractive for supporting quality control activities in Wikipedia. Then, Aaron will tell two stories of how the algorithms brought new, problematic biases to quality control processes in Wikipedia and how the Revision Scoring team learned about and addressed these issues in ORES, a production-level AI service for Wikimedia Wikis. He'll also make an overdue call to action toward leveraging human-review of AIs biases in the practice of AI development.

This is a continuation of the Wikimania session "Wikimedia and Sustainability-Selecting topics for impact". In that session, we mapped (and peer reviewed) common Wikimedia activities towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This led to the insight that some goals have few Wikimedia activities, whereas others naturally align well with what the Wikimedia movement does. However, this was in no way an exhaustive list, and we thus plan to iterate on it several times. The session ended with an idealisation phase around the goals that had least identified activities. We now have a large table with activities which maps them towards the sustainable development goals. With this session, we aim to achieve three things: - Refine the table of mapped activities we have - Peer review the additions that were made during Wikimania - Highlight existing activities in the areas where we have the greatest gaps, and brainstorm topics on the areas that have the largest gaps Through the session, we want to achieve a more complete list of activities that also have been reviewed by more members of the community. This will enable a more diverse palette of activities to choose from when planning events and discussing with potential partners.
