Wikipedia is very popular thanks to high visibility in Google so the risk of readership decline is low even if more people are using social media; as long as it is high in google searches, readers and subsequently editors are still coming; we only need to be open for newbies to increase retention of them

The readership of Wikipedia is not given for ever, there are many examples of services which were very popular in the past but now they are forgotten; Google might start creating knowledge services (such as bot-created quasi encyclopedic articles based on their enormous databases) which can easily cover most of topics an push back Wikipedia visibility in their searches, especially in mobile apps.

Wikipedia is already used and treated as something different than typical encyclopedia; it is promotional (unfortunately) vehicle for many companies; it is also pretty fast news service, sometimes faster than traditional written newspapers; readers in fact enjoy these non-encyclopedic aspects of Wikipedia but there is an issue of self-definition of scope and self-esteem of Wikipedia.

"Sum of human knowledge" is a good general goal, but it cannot to be understood too directly, as we shouldn't put to Wikipedia everything. All spoken tradition is in fact a kind of OR, so it should be examined by experts and turn into reputable, referenced works to make it valid to cover in Wikipedia and it is not a work for Wikipedians but rather scientist.

In fact there is no big difference in audio/video recording of spoken knowledge and written transcription of it, and in fact one can argue that all written sources are the transcriptions of someone's toughs; the issue is if the author and/or place of publication is trustworthy; we can use audio/video recording as a sources with the disclaimer that it is opinion of the author, not the generally approved knowledge.

Educate Wikipedians to insert some kind of microformatting that would make the information available on demand for some application or gadget. This idea points to a database-oriented solution and a tech-oriented team that would cooperate with specialists of various areas.

We need to create a tool for editing videos in Wikipedia, so editors here can create videos that review the articles, and upload them to YouTube. Wikipedia should go into social networks and set up Twitter and Facebook accounts. We need to create a tool that will play articles, not external tools from external sites. I believe that only in this way can we be relevant in 2030, only if we open up to new audiences.

We should first define exactly the problem, and then discuss it. Our communities will change together with the changing world because they are part of the world. The content will remain relevant only to the extent that the topics will be relevant. if anyone in the future predicts that in 2030 history will interest no one and therefore will want most of our effort invested in futuristic issues, it will challenge us. As long as it does not happen or is not serious, you can continue forward.

this is not going to change. People will always read (or use knowledge of a disk connection to the brain, but again text). the education system may adopt (Toffler talked about it) a stratified approach that will cause not everyone to learn the same things, but still a classic encyclopedia, accurate and readable, will be very useful.

When experts say that there are other needs for information than the classical or online encyclopedia, off course they are right. But I as an author like encyclopedias. And this is why I contribute to one. We, the community, know how to make an endylcopedia and we want an encyclopedia. If you, WMF, wants to make something different you should start looking for different contributors. But as long as the readers of your encyclopedia pay your wages you should make sure, that the encylopedic project Wikipedia gets adequately equipped and supported.

The questions neither surprise me nor are they suitable in any way for Wikipedia. Off course many want answers to many questions, but we can never supply those. There are countless forums for that. Emerging countries are not of interest here. German is not a language spoken in emerging countries (this might be different for other languages). Talking about YouTube, Snapchat and others is a much too narrow point of view to look at the world outside Wikipedia. We are talking about the leisure behaviour of young people. But Wikipedia is aiming at older target groups like pupils and students who want acquire enlarged knowledge. Whether Wikipedia is significant for a large or rather a small group does not matter. What matters that there will still be a community that writes, maintains and protects articles, nothing else.

Is our current encyclopedic format sustainable? It is not and there certainly is need for further expansion. The structure has to be further adapted to the en:Semantic Web to get answers faster. The encyclopedic content would remain unchanged but be written with additional variables.

The formal education system does not work. That is not a new information. To provide alternatives it is not enough to further extend Wikipedia. Sister projects and other projects of free education should be supported as well. Nowadays for a large parts Wikipedia and its sister projects shoulder what the eductation system does not manage. In general the education policy of teaching can be enriched by more online possibilities and the use of technology such as Wikis.

People searching for new learning methods: from the point of view of didactics it is important to appeal to many different senses and to go beyond mere knowledge transfer. But the WikiMedia is too formal for learning for many, so that they will end up in YouTube. But I doubt that our projects can go beyond plain knowledge transfer and machine communication. Wikiversity and Wikibooks are too theoretical for many.

Rich knowledge: one of the most difficult questions of humankind, where does knowlege start and where does it end. I would regard the Wikimedia projects as rich, but not as comprehensively complete. Do we want to preserve all knowledge of young people from social media and pop culture resp. are we even able to do this?

Reliable sources are rejected often because of distrust and scpeticism: you can never trust an open Wiki, no matter what quality and control mechanisms it has. But accpetance of Wikipedia has improved. It is alarming what we accept without critically scrutinizing it. Wikipedia cannot do much against a general mistrust of reliable media. Wikipedia is only as good as its sources.

Young people place trust in individuals whose judgement and intellectual honesty they respect. This has never been any different. That is a very normal process of growing up. Even grownups are showing this behaviour, for example in politics. The polarisation in social media channels should be viewed critically. The Wikimedia projects should be an antithesis to this.

How to reach the target group "young people": Besides technology, usability and structure what's important for the Wikimedia projects are subjects. Young people notice quickly that many articles are written for older people (for example about people with oldfashioned professions, osolete types of entertainment). Maybe at our beginning that was more balanced, because there was a higher numbers of young editors amongst us. Today much of what we do comes from special knowledge of an elder generation. Pop culture (what young people are interested in) is almost nonexistent in the German versions. So many young people prefer Wikia and others. Young people want to research themenselves with primary sources instead of acamedically researching.

The Wikimedia Foundation should start another project, Wikiclickydicky, to suck up to all who are not interested into an encyclopedia, like Michael and Annisa. But WMF should not damage our existing encylopedia to slaughter its high quality content for a social media trend. The high quality standard of Wikipedia is not negotiable when not everybody is interested in it.

It would be great if we could build some mobile apps. For example an app that can use bird song files from Commons to identify birds when walking around. When successfull the app would should the article about the bird. Or an app that works as a travel-guide. There might be thousands of apps. This only works when the Wiki concent is transferable to apps, meaning that apps would be writable and editable as easy as Wikipedia articles. I have no problem with those apps having a social aspects. Each app could have a community. They could have an aspect of learning, or a quiz aspect such as Wikiversity.

"Like his parents, Michael values that the content is useful, more than if it is high quality or free and neutral". But neutral for whom? How can content be usefull that is not free and neutral? This utilitarian understanding of Wikipedia cannot be a standard for Wikipedia. The challenge of this week does not generate any need for change of our projects. The opposite is the case. In all languages and projects we have to value quality, accuracy and neutrality higher than usefulness.

We are less visual than publishing houses 50 years ago. We don't need less text but more images, and more usable ones. Since we use very small images in article we may need a new atlas-like image-focused project. We need to be able to easily create diagrams, timelines, mind maps, etc. (Bramfab)

Social networks are not the only new model to share knowledge (e.g. Quora). Social networks may not last forever (e.g. Second Life). Social network are over-simplifying and trivializing. Right not the principal "contribution" of social networks are POV campaigns, and I don't believe this can change. Our problem is not the lack of contributors, but of good patrollers (e.g. who are able to identify non-obvious vandalism). (Bramfab)

Wikioedia must stay true to its pillars, specifically those about sources, but still Wikimedia can do something related to oral sources: we could build a project (similar to Wikisource and Commons) to archive primary sources in textual, audio, video or other format. In particular cases those could be also referred on Wikipedia. Another possibility would be to support GLAM doing this job. (Lucas)

Let's not forget that young people will grow up and hopefully develop better insights as to what is a reliable source. If they try to gather reliable information through unreliable sources, that does not mean that Wikipedia has to adapt to it. Primarily it is a problem of educational institutions. They clairly don't know sufficiently how to explain what is a reliable source, or don't have the time for these things. Wikipedia could approach governments to inform them about the results of the research. Information and knowledge is increasingly available for groups of people who did not have this opportunity in the past. That is, of course, great for a mind hungry for knowledge. This does also mean that this way how to present knowledge reaches people who don't know the 'Western model of an encyclopedia' may not know how to interpret it, when it comes to the reasoning behind this model. People don't like what they don't know. The reason that the 'western model of an encyclopedia' does not appeal to all cultures in the world to the same extent is of course the fact that the encyclopedia is a western invention. It does not mean that this model fails. I wonder if the objections to the "Western model of an encyclopedia" do not consist of prejudice to Western findings as such. See for this the political condition of the world at this time. Has that been investigated? Does it depend on the level of education that people in non Western countries think that the 'Western model of an encyclopedia' has shortcomings? The world of science is largely based on the Western way, too, and does not appeal to every culture to the same degree. It does not necessarily mean that the scientific world needs to be reformed. This also applies to Wikipedia.

I do not really see the need to change the way Wikipedia works. Some people might, at these times, consider the encyclopedia model unappealing or hard to use (which I won't object to), but it does serve its own purpose that benefits so many people (through the easy access to information). We should not change the way Wikipedia works, but we could consider employing other Wikiprojects as a a substitute for those looking for more educational resources: possibly Wikiversity as an example.

I think that rather should create a more friendly support to share, many answer questions with links and many of those links are Wikipedia. And it should focus on how to build knowledge, not so much as producing and consuming. Maybe we could have a small space per article that allows suggestions with icons that express general themes -- Did you like this article? What could we improve?

The discussion was about having similar page as "The Wikipedia Library" but locally; It was noted that Wikimedia Polska donate access to sources via its Wikigrant project but it is not fast enough for single and fast fact checking; It was suggested to organize "self help source" page in Polish Wikipedia, when Wikipedians can share access to sources between them for free.

Answering the topics raised in points 27-30 it was mentioned that some scientific, well established sources such as literature studies published by Routledge have also their own strong bias (in this particular case: towards left wing and political correctness POV) and it changes over time following the current "fashions"; but there is no reason not to use them as sources, we just have to be aware of this bias.

Answering the topic raised in point 31, 4 users discussed how to write good articles on current, controversial topics; the idea was to write articles about topics "around" the hot, current issues in "timeless" way, i.e. to put there as much as possible well sourced neutral content and do not tailor them to the curent events, but rather just stick to basic facts, which are not going to change.

However it was found that during the hot events it is hard to be neutral; therefore the idea was raised to predict what might be "hot" in the near future and prepare good articles about it in advance, before the audience's focus is triggered due to political or other events; the example was given: article about Polish Constitutional Tribunal

Who determined that much of human knowledge can not be verified? And what are the "traditional means" in question? Through the traditional means used today, almost all human knowledge can be documented (except for what has been created in the past hour). Some of the things are difficult to prove, but the knowledge can be verified, while attributing it to the original. Really original news from the 'new' areas of the world is really a problematic issue, but it will not be wise to give 'easements' and shortcuts. Some of Africa's development goals (for example) are also lagging behind in this section, it will take time, the cultural research there will be updated, there will be critical literature, and then some encyclopedic knowledge will be made.

Oral traditions of African peoples are basically the same as documents, archive materials, old texts and so forth: classical primary sources. Including and intepreting primary sources can never be the task of Wikipedia. Within the Wikimedia projects we might possibly think about using them for Wikisource (I don't know if we can already do that). But only in the original language of the source. For Wikipedia we should not change how we handle this: never interpreting primary sources, merely quoting the scientific interpretation of secondary sources. And for this peer review is the standard for scientific publications, worldwide, and not only in the so-called Western culture. In secondary sources about the subject do not exist we have to wait until scientists analyze the source, otherwise we cannot use it for Wikipedia.

Including primary sources is not the task of Wikipedia, at any rate not at the moment. But it can be the task of some other Wikimedia project. We might upload an audio file to Wikiquote, Wikisource or Commons, or to a newly created Wikimedia project with a name like Wikioral or Wikiwitness, but have to think about the following: We know who made the interview We know who the interviewee is We should maybe have a picture of the interviewee or he is identified by checking personal documents or having a confirmation of the identiy by a witness or check the credibility of the interviewee We should maybe have the complete names, the birth date and nationality of the interviewer and the interviewee We should maybe have time and place of the interview When conducting the interviews one could look at the scientific approach of for example ethnologist and empirical social researchers as best practice. We should achieve a legal certainty about the audio files. When using this primary sources we should apply high standards on the verification of the sources.

In some Wikipedias we could integrate oral traditions as a large citation with additional descriptive text. I can recall that somebody was explaining a recipe. Should there be variations of this they could also be included, again accompanied with article text from regular sources. But for the beginning this should be allowed for the Wikipedia that actually want that.

At first glance large citations violate many of our rules: 'Verfiability', 'No original research', 'Quotations', 'What Wikipedia is not'. And you cannot simply cancle those out. Ultimately such ideas collide with our most important principle: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. In case this fundamental principle gets weakend there has to be a discussion (this is already the second week that WMF questions the so-called "western encyclopedic model"). They should start separate projects for this. You might profit from the hugh reputation of Wikipedia but won't water down Wikipedia's attempts at quality and reliability.

Honestly I am shocked that all our core principles are seen as negotiable. We're not talking about 'change aversion' here. What is not acctable is to replace the whole project including the communiy for generating articles that have an improved machine readability just for not having to deal with those annoying Europeans. In case the model Wikipedia is obsolete you just have to deal with having a standstill. Then you have to start a new project.

I think that Wikis can try to use oral sources in case there are no other sources available. This could apply to Wikis in African languages. Of course they can keep writing articles about international pop stars and politicians in African languages, but that is not sufficient. So maybe oral history would help these Wikis, but that would take a bigger effort than just translation from en.wikipedia. Now what about quality and reliability? On our projects we normally try to use the best sources. There are enough reliable sources about scientific facts and you can use those - and there are subjects where you have to rely on press materials. So I think extending our sources through oral ones, because they can hardly be worse than many press releases. Especially when you look at the international press, the quality is dubious. Or does anybody really think that press releases in the former GDR are in any way usable as sources for Wikipedia? 'Fake news' would be terrible for us, yet in many countries they are standard.

The greatest enemy to get "all the knowledge" on Wikipedia, is no longer the lack of traditional sources, but the community itself that exercises the power to decide on issues such as what is notable and what is a reliable source. This could destroy Wikimedia before 2030. (19Tarrestnom65, B25es)

To meet this challenge, each Wikipedia community would need to agree on specific definitions for "non-traditional" sources that would be considered reliable and what kind of content those sources would be reliable for.

In the low awareness region, there is a trend that we only need to rely on Wikipedia for assignment purpose for our study. So in everyday life, they do not use Wikipedia and we need to change that by promoting it. Social media can play a vital role in this regard.

For the sake of the debate, if the oral knowledge is added then the problem will arise, who you trust, surely we can not practically set any threshold who we should trust and who we should not.

We have reached this stage today from a small website because people believe our information because we provide reliable information with sources. So changing it will affect our Wikipedia's credibility.

This is simply not practical. However, in this case, one thing we can do within our current model, If some local agencies can arrange for writing oral knowledge in some way, we can use them as sources of information.

I can hardly agree with the "key insights". I believe that the foundations to understand, interpretate and describe our world - also what's not yet descibed in reliable written historical sources - is supported by science, democracy and transparency, i.e. the values that are the keys of the Wiki projects.

Voice-activated and voice-response systems will be integrated in browsers and OS but are not going to be developed directly by Wikimedia. AI could help has in categorizing photos on Commons and in finding PD photos on external websites. Machine translation and spell-check already exists and should be applied to Wikimedia projects. Wikimedia apps could provide users tailored content through machine learning, reinforcement learning and school content through CSP and scheduling.(Ruthven)

WMF should stop to make misinformation, especially with fundraising banners. Namely: wrong translations; the idea that "Wikipedia" and not WMF is receiving money; the idea that the best way to help Wikipedia is donating money, and not contributing with content; the idea that readers are producing a cost on us; categorizing readers as just readers, and not as users, as if as they are not expected to be also contributors; the idea that donations are needed as an emergency; using black banners as if wikipedia.org was draped in mourning and full page banners as it was not accessible.

The problem is not with access to offline sources, but with ability and willingness of people to read paper sources. Reading longer texts in general is less and less popular - among general public and Wikipedians as well, which results in using poor quality internet sources and Wikipedia is in fact just an aggregator of online sources.

There's already the idea of running a Wikipedia application in a geographic area and then displaying information about sites in the environment (based on location) or sites that do not have a picture. Our interest is for the app to alert ("Do you want to get information about sites around you?"), "Wikipedia needs your help to photograph sites around you!") And not wait for the user to ask for information.

There is an application for viewing the stars (a beautiful example of a AR) - pointing a smartphone to the sky and if there is any interesting object, you can go to the entry on Wikipedia, which will be displayed in the format required in this application.

In the case of a telephone conversation (or by telephone) between me and any professional. Suddenly there is a term that I have no idea what it means (let's say it's a lecturer and I can't interrupt it in the middle with a question) - there may be an app that will allow you to record and analyze the last sentences spoken and then focus on the term that was not clear to us,

Artificial Intelligence - I would recommend not using artificial intelligence to create content, but rather making editorial suggestions for editors (offering categories in an article, offering a new sub-category within a category, rephrasing a sentence, identifying the basis of the sentence). There is reason to fear that artificial intelligence will be based on an unreliable source and therefore a mechanism is needed to evaluate the reliability of sources at the level of a sentence / paragraph.

Could the reliability of sources be rated? This means that the source added to the article, as long as it has not received approval from a certain number of Wikipedians, will be considered as a suspect (or not tested). One of the options to give a solution to this is the transition of Wikipedia to the format of TiddlyWiki (a significant step). This is a wiki created on a collection of templates called Tiddler. You can say that a tiddler can include one sentence, a short definition, an entire paragraph, or a full article.

Assuming that in the future there will be a preference for voice content over textual content, Tiddlers have an advantage - it will reduce the amount of text that needs to be read (reducing the information load) and the user himself chooses what to focus on. We can introduce some content that we want and the articles will still be presented in a concise manner. This is perhaps the place to note that in the TED era, people will probably have less patience to read recommended articles and they will want summary articles and according to their interest they will do their study.

With regard to the fear of "loss of access to material that includes additional points of view," we can offer two modes of study in Wikipedia - a "focused" response to specific questions (when we need a quick answer and it does not interest us to read a recommended article) and "enrichment" Other topics, which is roughly the situation today on the front page and in the articles themselves). If more people search for "focus", and we only give them "enrichment," they'll look elsewhere. We can hope that the "focus" that will bring them to us will bring them from there to "enrichment." It is our responsibility to implement at every level the content of the NPOV and the totality of opinions.

Reducing the digital gap - solutions can be found to reduce the gap, whether by publishing printed content (we can help social activists create books, activists can print them) or placing computers in public places such as library, schools or near them. With all due respect, I do not think this is a topic for Wikipedia. We can make it easier to be relevant, but the solution itself does not need to come from us (and if so, in partnership with other bodies that this is a concern to them).

There is a serious problem with the conservation of material in the digital era (sites that change form or get off the net) - we have an interest in preserving the material, but we can't affect the work of archives. We can only try to make use of the content and hope that you will retain access to these resources. Perhaps the WMF or its representatives (the Israeli chapter) may be able to assist in contacting these bodies (Knesset discussions, meetings with relevant bodies)

We've survived all these years and have gained credibility for our current model and contents. Sharing knowledge in social media and sharing knowledge from the encyclopedia are two different things to me. However, we can promote our projects through social media so that people sharing them on social media or in-person getting them from our projects in the first place.

On the other hand, many things must evolve from a technical and organizational perspective in order to make the encyclopedia more accessible, in terms of content (image, video, voice synthesis) and in terms of editing (Visual editor, conflict moderation system, automation of bibliographic and citation tasks as this has already been initiated).

This challenge 3 conflicts with the previous two. How can we fight the different systems of misinformation that have evolved mainly on the web, while questioning the classical (improperly designated "western") model of the encyclopedia? How do we fight misinformation, while we suggest other types of ways of sharing knowledge via messaging apps and social networks, which are the main vectors of these misinformation? Kirtap

Moving away from reliable sourcing systems, stemming from traditional channels, and moving towards solutions such as gathering knowledge from oral tradition, or giving more credit to individuals instead of “reliable” organizations, are ways of increasing the risk of misinformation, because these systems are more vulnerable to misinformation.

The classic encyclopedia model, as adopted by Wikipedia, has proved its worth in terms of stability and adaptation. However, in order to combat misinformation, only a stable foundation such as this current model makes it possible to identify the risks and to counter them, not "volatile" models of disseminating information via social networks with all the risks that they involve.

Even if the idea is not to entrust Wikipedia to a single AI that will do everything on its own, it is necessary to think now about the limits that will be given to each other and the place that we want to give to Automated systems.

I will find it damaging to end up having a Wikipédia for all with only "views" from translations on the fly. Why would an article on a topic be treated the same way by an American, a French, a Congolese, a Vietnamese or a Brazilian editor? Jean trans h+. If we do not want to use these tools, this will mean in the medium term the end of Wikipedia. When encyclopedias generated by AIs will gradually emerge, human contributors will be unable to cope with them from a quantitative and qualitative point of view. KirtapI Overall agree [with Kirtap], but it should be on a case by case basis. For example, Google has already helped us, and for a long time, putting us in top results. Jean-Christophe BENOIST

Automated article creation could or should go through a stage of human-AI cooperation where an AI would submit proposals created out of automatic processing, and then human editors could choose whether to add or modify them. In some areas requiring less expertise such as sports or geographic information pages, AI may work freely. Jean trans h+

The AI is constantly evolving and one day it will no longer be possible to understand how it works. But entrusting the writing of articles to an algorithm, however complex it may be, amounts to entrusting the reins to one person. What I like about Wikipedia is the plurality of points of view, the opinions that make a debate happen, editing wars, and so on. Jpgibert

What will become of minority opinions? What will become of the subjects that are less or not covered by media? How to avoid falling into the intellectual confinement to which Google and Facebook submit us with their algorithms able to choose the information most relevant to us basing on our ideas and our habits thus shrinking our vision of the world to our small person?

Even if the idea is not to entrust Wikipedia to a single AI that will do everything on its own, it is necessary to think now about the limits that will be given to each other and the place that we want to give to Automated systems. Will there be any review? Who's going to do it ? What will become of the principle of editing which is the heart of the system today? Who will have authority over whom? Jpgibert

AI may be machines, but machine learning does not allow them to be more objective than us. They do not have the ability to grasp and explain the concepts. Jpgibert, Kirtap Be careful not to judge the possible abilities of AI, machine learning systems work completely differently. They are not "programmed" but "trained" from patterns. In the near future, they will probably be less sensitive to the biases you mention. Jean trans h+

Wikipedia and Wikimedia can't disappear. If we want to survive in the very near future, it is timely and accurate what is being done with this strategy, which is to take into account the pros and cons of what is coming for the future -- That's what Google is doing, for example. (JMRAFFi)

Post-truth is not something new, there are the many conspiracy theories that resist any argument that refutes them. They are usually groups that have a very limited set of trusted sources -which it doesn't mean that they are encyclopedically reliable- and that they simply dismiss any other source accusing it of manipulation or worse.

I agree that the issue is not having policies "against the post-truth", but adapting and promoting fact-checking methodologies. I think that reliable sources can be found on internet, they are still there and continue appearing, the problem is to have the tools to find them.

The problem is not that simple, because sometimes it is not about the falsity of the data, but of emphasis and bias. For example, it is very common for the press to use sensationalist headlines and then the news is not related with it, which you don't realize until you read it.

Not because a media is satirical or humorous, all its information is false. For example, the Mongolia magazine has a real-news section on some aspects of Spanish society. On the contrary, a medium considered serious may publish false information or propagandistic-sourced (e.g. North Korea news). That's why sources can not be accepted/discarded without context.

It is useful to think in artificial intelligence as "decision-making aid" instead of "decision maker". AI can perfectly assemble lists of doubtful links for a review of some hierarchical (human) community entity dedicated to the extermination of dubious sources and publications.

Receiving knowledge among the new generation of internet users has dramatically changed. In nowadays, young people are not genuinely interested in written knowledge or the text format as a whole. That is happening for several reasons, but particularly because there is a flood of knowledge and big data right now that is forcing people to receive information faster than ever. This makes text a rather slow channel of attaining knowledge, while other media formats (like audio and video) are hugely rising in popularity.

It would be best for Wikipedia to organize a symposium with historian and philosopher en:Frank Ankersmit and likeminded experts about Wikipedia and Fake News. The subject is important and we have not understood the danger of POV leaking in quickly. The radical ban of Daily Mail as a source is an indication where to go. I think it's better to first understand what it's all about before taking measures.

I think it is wiser to focus on what we want to achieve than on what we want to counteract. Right now Fake News is a hot item, but in a year the hot item maybe will be war propaganda or a lack of journalistic capacity. Our focus must be on collecting, bundling, editing and disseminating quality knowledge. That may help in counteracting Fake News. But this is a broader them, which suits us better imho.

No, that is as if we look away and think that the problem does not exist anymore. It must become clear to many people what this is precisely about, and what can get Wikipedia into trouble (or, it already is in trouble). It is so important that we should find measures to tackle this kind of things. Certainly as fake news is a hot item nowadays.

In general: on Wikipedia, we can counteract misinformation the best by making the indication of sources mandatory, with regard to everything that can be doubted. Nowadays it is not mandatory on Dutch Wikipedia, and you notice that. We should also stop translating Wikipedia articles haphazardly from other language versions. Instead, we'd better concentrate on articles with information collected by ourselves. And don't use other wiki's (other than Wikipedia) as source. A site such as Wikinews should be deleted. We should concentrate on the updating, improving and expanding of existing articles about topics that are in the news. There should also be more attention by itself for the improvement and expansion of articles. The focus seems to be nowadys at writing new articles. There is a lot of wrong information in the Wikipedia language versions, meaning misinformation, although that is often a different kind of misinformation than in the question of the challenge.

A recent example of what might be Fake News: a famous mosque in Mosul was destroyed. Immediately it was mentioned that the IS was involved. And in a very short time later we could read on the Dutch Wikipedia that the IS had destroyed the mosque. We must take care of these kind of things. We are an encyclopedia, not a newspaper. Anything can only be accepted into Wikipedia when it is confirmed by official and/or independent sources. We have to be extremely careful with information coming from war situations.

Deliberately spreading Fake News is especially bad. We must somehow help to signal Fake News, so that it does not come to Wikipedia. This discussion about what we can do about it is very usefull. What is wrong as well is making jokes for the sake of making a joke, which we must also avoid - and that is why sources are so important, see en:Wikipedia:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia.

And again this study is besides the point and is almost worthless regarding Wikipedia. The statements has no meaning for Wikipedia, which is defined as an encyclopedic project. They are mostly about other projects resp. ideas for ruther projects. For all problems mentioned here there is an established solution: en:Wikipedia:Verifiability. Only reliable sources can be a basis for information in Wikipedia. In case there are no reliable sources we cannot write about it. Content and access are subjects for authors and in the forseeable future I do not see the collapse of acamedical and qualified institutions in the German-speaking area. So information for authors will be as accessible in the forseeable future as they are now, if not even better. About the epistemological question if objective evidence is (still) possible and how can you perceive objective evidence I would like to point out to de:Christoph Neubergers essay in the newest edition of M&K Medien & Kommunikationswissenschaft about journalistic objectivity (Volume 65, Issue 2 (2017), pages 406–431). Neuberger examines the possibility to establish and detect objectivity in journalism under the impression of the discussion about fake news and the further statements about loss of trust. He comes to the conclusion that it is possible and postulates criteria for establishing trust. Professional quality journalism and the Wikipedia can be an orientation for objectivity.

The contribution of the entire population to Wikipedia is an important goal, because if not, quite possibly have a biased approach. In order to achieve this, it will be necessary to promote knowledge and use of Wikipedia at all educational levels, as an extracurricular/voluntary non-exclusive activity. The affiliates must establish some kind of partnership with public or private educational institutions. (AnselmiJuan)

The approach and impact of Wikipedia in society is a double-edged sword: it has as much capacity to inform as to misinform. The uninformed or untrained reader will fall into the biases trap, relying on the "collective prestige" that supports "the free encyclopedia that everyone can edit" without having a critical analysis of the content.

The Wikimedia movement must work on strategic communication, which would help to break the inbreeding dynamics that are seriously harming the movement. If we don't want to be perceived as a Silicon Valley company, communication can not pretend to mimic Silicon Valley business strategies.

There are also communication problems in the fundraising campaign. Some friends told me the bad impression the banner caused on them, because it had made them understand that the WMF was finishing and that Wikipedia was about to close. There are important cultural differences to consider when placing banners.

There is a need for general reflection on the WMF strategic communication and its objectives, which must be connected not only with the donations/economic priority but with making visible the work, value, wealth and diversity of the communities that are part of the movement.

Wikimedia should begin to understand that we can't meet the current and future needs of our readers as long as we continue with a unique anglo/northern view. They should understand that cultures diversity necessarily implies diversity of looks. Wikipedia is not synonymous with English Wikipedia.

In the background, Wikimedia echoes anglo-american cultural imperialism. On the surface, it gives the impression of promoting linguistic and geographical diversity. However, if you scratches, it is clear that his focus is on the United States and English.

English language poses an important issue regarding the democracy within the Wikimedia movement because a number of contributors are excluded from international discussions (Wikimedia, Wikidata, Commons, bug report, ...) that are conducted in English.

I dream of a system where each contributor would write in his / her mother tongue during a discussion and Mediawiki would translate on the fly for the reader. Thus, a discussion could take place in English, French, Russian, Mandarin, Arabic, Indonesian and Italian, but the Spanish-speaking reader would see the whole discussion translated on the fly in Spanish. Pamputt This a very complex matter because discussions among users often refer to many cultural expressions and elements that are not always translatable or have no equivalent in other languages.

Regardless of the information value of Considering 2030: Misinformation, verification, and propaganda the Concluding thoughts and questions are plausible, reasonable and viable. They ought to be prioritized as follows: Very important: Track developments in journalism and academia for new ways to fact-check... Not a central task of Wikimedia, but a very important subject that Wikimedia should comment on: Collaborate with other public interest organizations to advocate for press freedom... In case accessability gets more difficult Wikimedia should take countermeasures: Continue to monitor carefully access to Wikimedia platforms from around the globe... Provided capacities and ressources are available internal Wikimedia projects exterminents and test projects should be supported and evaluated: Encourage and embrace experiments in artificial intelligence and machine learning...

If these are going to be the most common languages - Mandarin (1), Spanish (2), English (3) Hindi (4) and Arabic (5). I think the Hebrew Wikipedia has an interest in helping more in Arabic Wikipedia. In addition, this is an opportunity to combine translations from Hebrew in Mandarin, Spanish and Hindi (according to the various stakeholders - information, tourism, commerce, culture, etc.).

The distinction should be made between population growth and the increase in Internet use. Internet users will be more Mandarin and Spanish speakers and Africans? Maybe because of the lack of "Internet penetration", this increase will not affect the use of Wikipedia? With regard to population growth in Africa, one should consider the common languages of French, Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, Dutch / Afrikaans, Amharic and especially those who are more likely to have "penetration" of the Internet (On the other hand, it is also possible to establish projects for the documentation of missing languages).

There is a lot of misunderstanding about how Wikipedia works, and perhaps we should improve our presentation: to think of another "reception" for Internet and mobile users that will make it easier for people to know that Wikipedia is based on volunteering and donations. For example, the Wikipedia icon will be linked to an article on Wikipedia and not to the main page. In the Mobile view, the icon of Wikipedia (and also the link to the article) is more prominent. That the trial on the main page about Wikipedia and the content in "Welcome" will be adapted to the findings

Usability is more important to people, free knowledge and easier reading than transparency and lack of publicity. As to the ease of reading, a large part of our audience would prefer a concise article with links to more information than a long article (which brings me back to the tiddlers idea from the previous section). If the "lack of publicity" is less significant, perhaps the policy should be reconsidered.

One of the things that will particularly improve the user experience is "more reliable content" (57%), slightly more than the quality of the articles. If combined with the need for easy reading, it seems that some of the efforts invested in the recommended articles should be directed towards the sources. Fewer long articles, more established and relevant articles.

The most successful project focused on giving ‘answers to specific questions’ is StackExchange portal. It has a completely different focus and model of organisation, but if we would move into that direction, it is appropriate to do in close collaboration with them to not repeat the same errors and to not fragment the knowledge.

Wikipedia, Q&A, and social media are three completely different niches with completely different priorities and standards, so attempting a vertical integration between them would be hurtful to ability to compete in all spheres. Wiki has a most advanced system of gathering knowledge and the main focus should be stuck to it (so if we do something different, it doesn’t hurt this system). Ivan Pozdeev

The source of the problem is fully understandable: all sources of information that are ‘right’ and ‘reliable’ are not right and reliable. All sources in Wikipedia are conventionally reliable, so people are getting that and are seeking ways to evaluate them − and that is only the opinions of others. Egor

Who has a right to say that ‘traditional ways of verification’ result in truth? Wikimedia projects have a general systematic error to convey information as truthful. The problem is how we can evaluate ethicality of circulation of marginal opinions. From one side we have destruction of NPOV in favour of mainstream, from other side − the danger of influence of misinformation, propaganda, antihumanistic ideas. But it is a problem for the whole world and it is not solvable with users’ opinions. Egor

The only productive idea for solving this is authorisation of all information that is given out to the world. Unauthorised information should be doubtful by default and its processing should be done through other means. We need to stop lying ourselves about ‘protection of authors’, because this is not a protection and any action in the net can be tracked without a problem. Egor
