Agenda

Wikimania Team Challenges+Hackathon

Nicolas Vigneron

A vital part of Wikimania is the creation of collaboration and learning spaces for technical contributors, curious Wikimedians and knowledge enthusiasts. During this year’s Wikimania, the technical space will be a working event where developers, designers, researchers, editors, and community builders from around the world meet to collectively address technical challenges faced by the Wikimedia community.

Group discussion

GLAM Tool Hospital Hackathon Update

Broadie Hoare

I have finished the tool that I was working on at the hackathon to support the maintenance of GLAM wiki tools - | GLAM Tool Hospital, it would be good to present on this and also gain interest in people potentially doing some user-testing of the final UX design, along with getting feedback about tools featured in the filter section.

Update

Youth-led AI spatial reconstruction for community cultural memory

Waleed Ajmal

PreserveMy.World is a youth-led prototype from Lahore that turns simple phone footage into explorable 3D memories using AI-assisted spatial reconstruction, Gaussian Splatting, Neural Radiance Fields, and video-to-3D reconstruction. The proposed call topic would show how small GLAMs, schools, local volunteers, and communities could document meaningful places before they change or disappear, and discuss practical ethics around consent, access, authenticity, and community ownership.
