This page is a space for people interested in Leeds' cultural institutions to get together.

Future Goals include: a Leeds-focused edit-athon

Wikimedia and universities: contributing to the global commons in the Age of Disinformation[edit]

http://doi.org/10.1629/uksg.509

Wikipedia is one of the most popular websites in the world and acts as a bridge between informal discussion and scholarly publication. It is linked to other Wikimedia platform including Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons that can be used together to disseminate openly licensed research outputs. This paper considers the benefits for universities of strategic engagement with Wikimedia which include information literacy and research impact.

Activities to date[edit]
