The board of the Data Science Institute at the University of Virginia is hosting "University of Virginia + Data Science Institute + Wikipedia in 5 minutes", a private event for University of Virginia faculty and staff. Join UVA's own staff Wikipedia editor, Lane Rasberry, for a presentation on Wikipedia, Wikidata, Wikimedia projects, and the ecology of nonprofit media and communication. Wikipedia has been a highly popular source of information for a generation and continues to influence thought in all fields. Enjoy the presentation and feel free to ask any questions you have ever had about the encyclopedia.
This is a non-technical presentation about Wikimedia projects. Please attend without advance preparation.
