Although it is more powerful than it has ever been, Wikipedia is reliant on third parties who are increasingly ingesting its facts and severing them from their source. In order to survive, Wikipedia needs to initiate a renewed campaign for the right to verifiability.

Four members of Art+Feminism speak to the challenges and invisible work of organizing community within the larger Wikipedia community.

To build a Wikipedia that reflects the full breadth and depth of humanity, we must deconstruct the myths that allow misogyny, racism, colonialism and other forms of oppression to flourish in our communities, and build new practices for the next 20 years.

The collaborators of the Black Lunch Table discuss their efforts at filling holes in the documentation of contemporary art history on Wikipedia.

This chapter will focus on the history and impact of LGBTIQ+ contributions to Wikimedia projects through the personal experience of one WIkipedian. This chapter will also explore the global thematic chapter Wikimedia LGBT+ and the community it builds and supports.

While much has been said about Wikipedia's editors and how they work and interact, we seldom think of those who normally should not be able to access it - because of poor connectivity, high data costs, or outright censorship- yet still do.

Wikipedia is available in almost 300 languages, each with independently developed content and perspectives. Sharing more knowledge across languages would allow each edition to focus on their unique contributions, and yet improve their comprehensiveness and currency.

What is the power of Wikipedia to users that frequently consume it, but fear they don't have the authority to edit the page? Wikipedia's potential to represent the full scope of users' knowledge diversity is inhibited by several barriers that suppress inclusive participation.

We set out to write the sum of all human knowledge. Unfortunately, it's complicated.
