[Analytics] Re: [event] Wiki Workshop 2022 - Registration open

Hi all, The registration for Wiki Workshop 2022 [1] is now open. The event is virtually held on April 25, 12:00-18:30 UTC and as part of The Web Conference 2022 [2]. The plenary parts of the event will be recorded and shared publicly afterwards. Wiki Workshop is the largest Wikimedia research event of the year (so far;) that the Research team at the Wikimedia Foundation co-organizes with our Research Fellow, Bob West (EPFL). This year, Srijan Kumar (Georgia Tech) joined the organizing team as well.:) The event brings together scholars and researchers from across the world who are interested in or are actively engaged with research and development on the Wikimedia projects. While the details of the schedule are to be finalized and posted in the coming week, we expect to generally follow the format of 2021 [3]. This year we received research submissions from more than 20 countries and have accepted 27 research papers whose authors will present the work as part of the workshop (If you are an author of an accepted paper: congrats!:) . Our keynote speaker is Larry Lessig [4] and we will have a panel to reflect on the decade anniversary of SOPA/PIPA, moderated by Erik Moeller (Freedom of the Press). And of course, all the music, games, etc. will remain. :) If you are interested in participating in the live event, please indicate your interest by filling out [5]. Anyone is encouraged to register: you don't have to be a researcher. In the registration form, please explain why attending the live event will support you in your work on the Wikimedia projects and beyond. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
