Overview: “WikiCred 2026: Information Reliability in an Age of Information Loss” is aimed at addressing the ongoing threats to information reliability and editor safety on Wikipedia, and the emerging challenge of disappearing dataset, information erosion and loss online. WikiCred will do this in the coming year by recruiting and creating a community of like-minded builders – people and groups with deep and varied technical knowledge who seriously consider information reliability and information loss – from outside the Wikipedia movement, and connecting them with existing Wikipedians.
Most importantly, WikiCred will build a sustainable community, so that the builders we recruit become engaged Wikipedia volunteers who continue to work to address credibility.
Activities will include:
Curriculum development Partnership outreach Editor recruitment In-person training around the U.S. Online meetups Facilitating ideation Prototyping and refining tools, categorization, and other other activities that enhance or add to credibility on Wikipedia
Another key objective of this proposal is to build capacity and sustainability beyond the end of the grant period. For example, in 2026, WikiCred will continue to work on raising additional outside funding and affiliate status (note: our most recent Foundation communication is that affiliate recognition is currently paused).
Guiding principle: WikiCred will use this funding to engage with technologists, researchers, policy specialists, activists and journalists – “builders” who, while already somewhat familiar with Wikipedia, are strongly aligned with the goals of the movement, who can provide knowledge, skills, and expertise in the general topic of credibility and information integrity, and who will be most likely to continue to participate as editors on the platform following the end of the grant period. Note: we will create an outreach dashboard to track the entire year together to document meetups, activities.
While WikiCred aims to engage, recruit and retain new and dormant Wikipedia editors, the goal is also to continue to build a network of individuals, projects and initiatives that share common values and common cause with the Wikipedia movement. As a longtime WikiCred participant said, “There are these builders out there, but we don’t always know how to find them. (WikiCred) needs to actually be out there on the ground meeting people. By making ourselves available, we can meet the builders.”
About WikiCred: Since it was launched in 2018 and the first WikiCredCon at MIT in 2019, WikiCred has supported research, software projects, convenings, and more so the Wikimedia community can work to improve credibility and information integrity on Wikipedia and across the Internet.
Save for a break during the pandemic, since 2019 regular WikiCred tracks have become part of annual Wikiconference North America programming. And, over the past seven years, there have been sustained, regular online WikiCred meetups hosted by Hacks/Hackers and Credibility Coalition that provide a virtual space for researchers, technologists, editors, and others outside the Wikipedia movement to come together to discuss new challenges and potential threats and brainstorm solutions. WikiCred participants also participated in two rounds of microgrants funded by the Wikimedia Foundation, aimed at building tools that address credibility on Wikipedia and beyond — one of which was a proto-API around Reliable Sources, which has now been built for use for Cite Unseen tool which WikiCred also nurtured.
How WikiCred supports WikiCredCon: The most recent WikiCredCon convening in February 2025 Jo demonstrates the interest Wikipedians and builders from outside the movement have in WikiCred. The energy and enthusiasm of attendees helped the three-day WikiCredCon serve as an in-person incubator in the WikiCred space, where like-minded people working on different credibility projects come together to share ideas that so far have sparked several collaborations that will be discussed as part of WCNA 2025’s WikiCred track. WikiCred’s work led to a long piece in The Verge by Josh Dzieza published in September 2025, “How Wikipedia survives while the rest of the internet breaks,” see: https://www.theverge.com/cs/features/717322/wikipedia-attacks-neutrality-history-jimmy-wales
Should WikiCredCon be convened again in 2026, WikiCred’s regular online meetups and Slack space will serve to surface themes to be discussed at a potential WikiCredCon later in 2026 – WikiCred would provide more time to refine the WikiCredCon program, and more time to plan and discuss with Wikimedia Foundation staff, who would likely once again attend.
In summary: Thanks to the interest and enthusiasm of WikiCred participants since 2018, there is an opportunity to grow a community of editors and other collaborators and supporters to better tackle issues related to editor safety, missing information and credibility on Wikipedia as a platform, and across other Wikimedia communities.
We are asking for support from Wikimedia Foundation to build a sustainable initiative that has the capacity to engage with and retain new editors and builders over the coming years.
Challenges, and how WikiCred will address them As fact-checking ends on social media while political content is increasingly promoted, and LLM-powered search search results affect our “fundamental shared reality,” Wikipedia – the only one of the 10 most-visited websites in the world run by a non-profit – is still regarded as one of the most reliable repositories of information on the internet. The reliability of Wikipedia helps improve information elsewhere on the internet, and has provided critical data for search engines, voice assistants, and Large Language Models (LLMs). And, thanks to its community of volunteer contributors, editors and other Wikimedians, Wikipedia is regarded as a first line of defense for information integrity. However, information integrity and credibility on Wikipedia continues to face a variety of challenges that WikiCred can address, including:
Challenge: Harassment and intimidation of editors
Recent tactics to silence Wikipedia editors include doxxing, lawsuits, arrests, and threats of violence.
How WikiCred will address this challenge: Training for online safety, build a network of editors to share resources and share support.
Challenge: Chilling effects
The combination of lawsuits, doxxing, and harassment has created a "chilling effect" that can dissuade some editors and some communities from participating on the platform. Some editors may avoid contentious topics out of fear of retaliation, which weakens the encyclopedia's coverage of important issues. This makes it difficult to attract and retain editors, and leads to knowledge gaps on the platform.
How WikiCred will address this challenge: Reaching out to underrepresented people and cultures to help them better interface with and participate as editors on Wikipedia. As well, training for online safety, build a network of editors to share resources and share support.
Challenge: Shrinking editor base
The number of active editors and administrators, who are crucial for maintaining the site and its quality, has been declining. This strains the community's ability to manage the encyclopedia and respond to threats.
How WikiCred will address this challenge: Develop and deliver training, reach out to “builders” who are aligned with the Wikipedia movement, and to help them better interface with and participate as editors; reach out to underrepresented groups; facilitate collaborations with existing projects that are aimed at addressing credibility; build a network of editors to share resources and share support.
Challenge: Demographic bias
The editor community is overwhelmingly white, male, and from the U.S. and Europe, which leads to systemic biases in coverage. Topics of interest to this demographic are well-covered, while subjects like women, people of color, and non-Western cultures are underrepresented.
How WikiCred will address this challenge: Reaching out to underrepresented people and cultures to help them better interface with and participate as editors on Wikipedia.
Challenge: Information loss Since January 2025, more than 73,000 pages across several U.S. government websites and databases have disappeared from the Internet. While Wikipedia does not systematically consider official government sources to be reliable, these vanishing sources served as a key resource for editors and projects across the platform.
How WikiCred will address this challenge: Train new and existing editors identify reliable sources, especially data sources as we lose access to traditional sources of robust data; help editors know what to look for in reliable data sources; facilitate collaborations with existing projects that are aimed at addressing credibility; facilitate activities such as source categorization.
Challenge: Effect of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI)
AI presents two challenges to Wikipedia. First, as more people get information from AI summaries of Wikipedia, fewer may visit the site itself, reducing the pipeline of new potential editors. Second, AI can be used to add plausible-sounding but false or biased information to the encyclopedia, increasing the workload for the already strained editors.
How WikiCred will address this challenge: Train new and existing editors to identify reliable sources; facilitate collaborations with existing projects that are aimed at addressing credibility; facilitate activities such as source categorization.
What WikiCred will do: Build a “community of builders” and build the capacity of the Wikipedia community
These challenges to Wikipedia are always surfacing, evolving, and, recently accelerating. Over the next year, WikiCred will continue to nurture a sustainable community of builders and underrepresented groups who are focused on addressing online credibility, information integrity and knowledge gaps will be positioned to come up with solutions in subsequent years.
The builders we will reach out to include:
> Those with policy knowledge and technical skills to address and enhance information reliability and credibility on Wikipedia > Journalists, who can contribute insights about processes for determining reliability and veracity, as well as how emerging new technologies such as AI are being deployed in the information environment > Underrepresented communities already active on Wikipedia, but may be experiencing challenges and friction when interfacing with Wikipedia’s editing culture
As outlined above, we wish to engage with like-minded participants who are most likely to continue to participate on Wikipedia following the end of this funding period. And so, we will seek out collaborations with partners who already engage builders and editors.
Collaborating with existing credibility projects
WIkiCred will also collaborate with existing credibility-focused projects in order to help attract and retain new editors, and, through participating in the projects, better understand how Wikipedia “works.” For example, Cite Unseen (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta:Cite_Unseen) would benefit from more community engagement to build out their dataset.
WikiSignals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hearvox/WikiSignals), a new project that is intended to compile a range of available data so Wikipedians can better evaluate source credibility, may benefit from the help of “builders” as new editors who can help refine the project over 2026, helping move it towards becoming a valuable tool for the Wikipedia editor community.
Connecting builders and volunteers as described above will by facilitating collaboration with existing projects will:
> Provide new potential editors with an entry point into Wikipedia >Assist in refining these existing projects and prototyping tools > Enhance the credibility of Wikipedia in other ways, including categorization efforts, or building list of known AI slop news sites
Key WikiCred activity themes:
WikiCred activities will follow several key themes:
> Partnering with likeminded builders to grow community. > Outreach and recruiting new editors and conduct training about Wikipedia. > Considering online safety in an era when Wikipedians are increasingly targeted. > Considering knowledge gaps, inclusiveness on Wikipedia, and editor diversity. > Preserving data as once-reliable sources disappear or transform. > Developing and prioritizing a list of tools that will meaningfully address credibility on Wikipedia — this involves both technical and community skills. > Building a sustainable WikiCred community that continues to be active following the end of 2026.
Core WikiCred activities:
WikiCred will tackle these themes through the following three general activities:
1/3) Conduct outreach to engage more people with relevant expertise in the Wikipedia movement
As WikiCredCon 2025 demonstrated, there is significant interest in addressing credibility on Wikipedia among both existing editors, and likeminded “builders” from outside the movement. WikiCred.
Some ideas sparked, discussed, and refined at WikiCredCon 2025 have led to ongoing projects who will likely partner with WikiCred to facilitate local in-person events, online training, and general engagement of builders – people and groups with deep and varied technical knowledge who seriously consider information reliability and information loss.
We will engage with these groups through the following activities:
ACTIVITY: Develop training curriculum WikiCred will also conduct training about the platform and the wider “wiki” movement. Training will include the basics of Wikipedia editing, addressing misinformation on the platform, plus more technical context that “builders” will need to know to achieve success on Wikipedia.
This curriculum is intended to help builders and underrepresented groups who can better understand how to interface with Wikipedia in order to more successfully address credibility and knowledge gaps on the platform.
ACTIVITY: Hold 4 in-person (and hybrid) events Since potential WikiCred partner groups and existing WikiCred team members (see #11, below) are located around the United States, WikiCred will support in-person events (with option for virtual presenters) that are intended to engage local audiences of builders and other potential new WIkipedia editors. Support will include room rental and other costs, plus promotion, followup after the event, and other activities that create and support a sustainable community.
In-person events are important for engaging with people who make serious and sustained efforts to address credibility online, and are more likely to participate in the Wikipedia movement – online training is not intended to be introductory sessions for people curious about Wikipedia, but for builders who will continue to engage with the platform.
At least one in-person event should be focused on gender, e.g., “women in credibility,” themed where there is the opportunity discuss and ideate around gender issues on the platform.
We’ll also aim to plan in-person WikiCred training during other high-profile events. ONA and SXSW are examples, and part of the project startup phase will include identifying these opportunities.
In terms of trainers, starting in January 2026, WikiCred will recruit other builders who are experienced with the platform (e.g., SimPPL and the Trust Project) to deliver curriculum at in-person / hybrid training events. WikiCred will also seek out other partners, collaborators and groups of existing builders in these locations.
ACTIVITY: Host regular online community meetups Since WikiCred collaborators are located across the United States, and, in some cases in Europe and South America, WikiCred will continue monthly online meetups.
These monthly meetups will act as a space to build relationships and community, discuss projects, and ideate for future WikiCred collaborations.
ACTIVITY: Facilitate ideation WikiCred is intended to be a sustained, multi-year initiative that also integrates with other activities such as a future WikiCredCons, and the WikiCred track at the annual WCNA event. In 2026, WikiCred will provide a structured space to develop ideas for addressing credibility on the Wikipedia platform as the information landscape continuously evolves, in order to plan a subsequent WikiCred phase in 2027.
2/3) Act as a hub and an incubator
Builders and editors typically lack the resources and capacity to easily sustain their projects. They need online spaces to meet, assistance access infrastructure including online storage or video calls, and also a way to communicate with others.
ACTIVITY: Administer online spaces WikiCred will provide and moderate online spaces where participants can gather, communicate, and share information synchronously.
ACTIVITY: Build partnerships WikiCred will identify and reach out to organizations and initiatives across the U.S. who can collaborate to convene events, and connect us at a local level with builders and potential Wikipedia editors.
ACTIVITY: Organize in-person meetups WikiCred will book spaces and make other arrangements for in-person meetups.
ACTIVITY: Coordinate community WikiCred will promote events, typically by newsletter and lists, and in online spaces. A large part of this coordination will be reaching out to and recruiting new builders and editors by inviting them to events.
ACTIVITY: Identify opportunities Encourage robust WikiCred projects to apply for Rapid Grants.
ACTIVITY: Survey participants We will conduct short surveys after each event; data will be used to build a dashboard that tracks meetups, participants, topics, satisfaction, and suggestions. A year/project-end survey will be conducted as well.
ACTIVITY: Communications and storytelling WikiCred will also explain planned and successful projects that are part of the initiative. Telling the story of WikiCred is critical for demonstrating impact, generating enthusiasm, excitement and new ideas, and contributing to the ongoing sustainability of WikiCred, year on year. Stories will be published on Misinfocon and on Diff blog, and pitched to journalists. A meta page will also be created to make meetup announcements, and share impacts throughout the year.
3/3) Build capacity and sustainability of WikiCred
Over the twelve months of the grant period, we will also work towards making WikiCred self-sustaining, including creating a bank account, pursuing affiliate status, and seeking out other funding partners in subsequent years.

Proposed partner initiatives: WikiSignals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hearvox/WikiSignals), a proposed credibility-related Wikipedia Editing Tool. Determining the reliability of a source could be easier if data to help with that determination was more accessible. WikiSignals compiles a range of available data so Wikipedians can better evaluate source credibility.
Project leads: Chris Rusnak, User:LocalMotion127 Barrett Golding, User:Hearvox
Reliable Sources and Cite Unseen: Cite Unseen was created at CredCon in November 2018, jointly developed by Kevin Payravi (SuperHamster) and Josh Lim (Sky Harbor), with support from the Credibility Coalition and the Knowledge Graph Working Group. The project saw more development at Wikimedia Hackathon 2019 and again at the Media Party hackathon in Buenos Aires where a prototype Arabic version was created. In 2025, Cite Unseen received a grant from Wikimedia CH to extend Cite Unseen. SuperGrey joined as a maintainer alongside SuperHamster in developing new features and expanding sources lists. Need some help with Reliable Sources
WCNA 2026 and (potentially) WikiCredCon: WikiCred will collaborate with Wikiconference North America 2026 organizers to build and offer a WikiCred track. We have also applied for an Events grant to offer a WikiCredCon in spring 2026. It’s likely that some WikiCred participants will attend WikiCredCon, and will subsequently present their ideas during the WikiCred track at WCNA 2026.
Credibility Coalition and Misinfocon: Credibility Coalition (CredCo, https://credibilitycoalition.org) is a research community that fosters collaborative approaches to understanding the veracity, quality and credibility of online information that is a foundation of civil society, and has hosted WikiCred meetups online and, at times, in person, since 2019. About 350 people participate in CredCo’s Slack community.
Established in 2017, Misinfocon (https://misinfocon.com) is an online publication where contributors consider solutions to online trust, verification, fact checking, and reader experience in the interest of addressing information integrity. WikiCred participants regularly publish updates about their projects on Misinfocon.
