Round Table

Abstract:

This event is a meetup for discussing projects for medical and health themed content development.

This meetup will start by introducing Wikimedia Medicine, the international organization advocating for medical content development in the Wikimedia space. The event starts with everyone sharing their projects then attendees collectively decide which sorts of projects to discuss further. We use shared note-taking to record positions, then publish those thoughts to wiki to advance the conversation.

Anyone can add potential topics for discussion. Here are some ongoing projects which we might choose to discuss at this event:

  • addressing alternative medicine, quackery, and corporate propaganda
  • outreach to medical schools
  • medical translation and offline content distribution
  • ingesting medical data for Wikidata and Wikipedia
  • administration of Wikimedia Medicine as an organization and sharing resources
