Abstract
Please describe your proposal in at least 300 words.
If you have any relevant webpages, slide-decks, etc., you may link them here.
Caribbean leaders (including public servants, activists, labour leaders, and scientists) are under-represented on Wikidata and Wikipedia. Join [[m:Wikimedians of the Caribbean|Wikimedians of the Caribbean]] and [[m:AfroCROWD|AfroCROWD]] as we launch a project to add new Wikidata items for 100 Caribbean leaders as the first step in a new project to add 10,000 Caribbean people to Wikidata. The presentation will consist of a panel discussion featuring Sherry Antoine and Ian Ramjohn of WikiCari. We will discuss the current level of (under)representation of Caribbean people on Wikidata, and the importance of representation as a crucial knowledge equity goal.
