Abstract
Wikimedia District of Columbia has facilitated four bootcamps (2012, 2014, 2016, 2018) for Wikimedia volunteers from all over the United States at the US National Archives and University of Maryland. Costs of attendance and travel were paid by WMDC. The bootcamps offered training and networking opportunities involving a number of topics, including train the trainer, community leadership, event organization and planning, institutional outreach, grants, online tools, risk management, safe space policies, and integration between sister wiki projects. Previous attendees have gone on to key positions in the Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia Affiliates, and to serve as Wikipedians-in-Residence and Wikipedia Visiting Scholars. Two of the graduates, Emily Temple-Wood and Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight, have been honored as Wikipedians of the Year. This panel will feature graduates and facilitators from these bootcamps discussing how their participation helped their involvement in Wikimedia projects and how the bootcamps develop talent and resources across the country.
