Wiki99/technology activism

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

This is the Wiki99 list for technology activism. "Technology activism" here refers to whatever social and ethical issues concern the Wikimedia community in its mission to provide universal access to information to everyone. The theme with this selection of topics is increasing awareness of the dangers that the public faces from using technology, and the activist ideas which community leaders suggest to lessen those dangers.

About[edit]

Wiki99 is the idea to have a list of about 99 Wikipedia articles which should be translated into as many languages as possible in order to establish common understanding in a field.

If the Wikipedia articles have at least been started, then access them in available languages by clicking through.

Translations start with structured data translation in Wikidata, then proceed to translation of prose in Wikipedia.
