Что такое Викимания?

Викимания — конференция более 2000 человек, фестиваль, встреча, хакатон и вечеринка, которая продлится более пяти дней в августе 2014 года, следуя после fringe. Это официальное ежегодное мероприятие проекта Викимедиа, где вы откроете для себя все виды проектов, которые люди создают с помощью вики свободного содержания, а также встретитесь с сообществом, создавшим самый знаменитый википроект из всех — Википедию.

The core event was held in and around The Barbican Centre in London, UK.


State of the Wiki
An annual update on the Wikimedia projects

Wikipedia is a household name — in fact, it’s now one of the five most popular websites in the world, clocking over 21 billion hits every month. With over 110m pages across 287 languages, and a dozen sister projects including dictionaries, newspapers, multimedia repositories and travelguides, it's come a long way since its founding in 2001; the community has grown, the technology has developed, and the organisation has matured. However, there are still sweeping changes to come. more…


===Социальные машины
Как интернет-сообщества раскрывают потенциал человечества?
===

Once upon a time 'machines' were programmed by programmers and used by users. The success of the Web has changed this relationship: we now see configurations of people interacting with content and with each other, blurring the line between computations performed by machine logic and algorithms, and those that result from input by humans, arising from their own psychological processes and life experience. Rather than drawing a line through such Web-based systems to separate the human and digital parts (as computer science has traditionally done), we can now draw a line around them and treat each such compound as a 'social machine', a machine in which the two aspects are seamlessly interwoven.[1] Of course Wikipedia is one of these, but what others? How can such systems be designed from scratch, and to what ends? далее…


The Future of Education
Now that Wikipedia's done everyone's homework, what's left to teach?

To the exasperation of many teachers, Wikipedia is the first port of call for millions of students from primary school to university. Its sheer convenience is challenging standard pedagogical approaches that implicitly assume information is scarce and difficult to duplicate. What if teachers asked students to contribute to Wikipedia instead? далее…


Open Data
What can we build when the sum of all human knowledge is machine readable?

Викиданные (Wikidata) это новый проект фонда Викимедиа: бесплатный, совместный, многоязычный, вторичная база данных, сбор структурированных данных для поддержки Википедии, Викисклада и других проектов Викимедиа, а также за её пределами. Это может стать одним из лучших открытых хранилищ данных на планете — что мы можем с ней делать? далее…


Open Scholarship
What happens when the cutting edge of human knowledge is available to all?

In 2013 alone over 500,000 pieces of scholarly research were made open access, across all disciplines — an unprecedented number. These are all citable in Wikipedia, meaning they can be integrated into the encyclopaedia, contextualised and made discoverable by anyone in the world with an internet connection. This level of accessibility of cutting edge research has never existed before in history, and the possible outcome of empowering citizen scientists and opening up academia in this way is beyond reckoning. далее…


Democratic Media
Must all media be commercially driven?

Media performs an essential political, social, economic, and cultural function in modern democracies. In such societies, media are the principal source of political information and access to public debate, and the key to an informed, participating, self-governing citizenry. Democracy requires a media system that provides people with a wide range of opinion and analysis and debate on important issues, reflects the diversity of citizens, and promotes public accountability of the powers-that-be and the powers-that-want-to-be. There is a growing sense that the growth of the Internet has not paid the democratic dividends that it could. more…
