I felt really grounded in the rich community ethos of the Wikimedia movement -- not just editors, not just organizers, not just WMF staff, not just affiliates, but *all* of us working together for a common goal of people working together to share knowledge more freely with the world. It's *so* energizing, and I'm more proud than ever to be a part of this movement and to have been so for twenty-five years. <3 Here's to twenty-five more! #Wikimania #Wikimania2026

Is there a chance that somebody at #Wikimania knows something about the recent loss of years of ahort links to #Wikidata queries on https://query-chest.toolforge.org/ The seeming flushing of all caches at some point earlier this month makes the service utterly useless and caused thousands of links in publications, on websites etc. to rot. #LinkRot #DigiPres

I'm thinking I will sneak out today for a quick excursion to the nearby Musée de la Musique, over by the Philharmonique #wikimania2026 #wikimania #lilypond

Please take a moment to pause this #wikimania and realise that wiki was just fine before the #WMF and will almost certainly continue to be fine after the #WMF Forks are hard because negotiating common cause with other folks is hard, but we need to be negotiating common cause anyway. If your common cause is not being reflected by WMF leadership and paid staff, have a think about why that might be.

Tamzin 🏙️ Paris (Wikimania!) 🔜 Bristol @tamzin@wikis.world · 3d ago

In the past 2 months, over 1,000 #Wikimedians (and counting!) have expressed our solidarity with #WikiWorkersUnited, the #WikimediaFoundation staff union, up to and including openness to an editorial strike. Today at #Wikimania, dozens of us gathered to send a clear message to the WMF: You've said you support your workers' right to unionize; now that a supermajority of American employees have signed union cards, it's time to show that you mean it. Recognize the union without delay. #Solidarity!

I’m sharing a bit of my trip this week with my mobile Krita/KDE Neon Linux workstation. Tiny samples from the train, Wikimania conference, and the hotel room! Producing my weekly comic this way was challenging, but I’m really glad it worked out! #krita #kde #train #wikimania #wikimania2026 #paris #painting

Having a great time at #Wikimania #Wikimania2026 so far! Got a community wishlist item knocked out yesterday, had some great conversations today. Next up is a serious session about board election reform, which is going to be interesting... ✊ Lots of interest and support for Wiki Workers United among editors and other contributors so far! We got this!

@bvibber@wikis.world @wikimediaaotearoa@mastodon.social @wikipedia_fr@wikis.world is anyone else here at the Wikimania Hackathon interested in hacking on the MediaWiki Score music notation extension? We've just deployed my SVG patch, but it would be cool to fix up some other stuff. I'm floating around in a purple Ubuntu 10.04 T-shirt 😃 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/mediawiki-extensions-score/ #Wikimania #Wikipedia #lilypond #wikimania2026

Today I'm heading to Paris to participate in Wikimania Paris, the international Wikimedia conference. I'm looking forward to talking with the wiki community about the Wikimedia Australia Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property (ICIP) and Indigenous Data Sovereignty (IDSov) Guide and its companion white paper CultureStrong Platforms: Setting the Standard at Wikimedia. https://elliottbledsoe.wtf/announcing-the-wikimedia-australia-indigenous-content-guide/ #CultureStrong #Wikimania #Wikipedia #WikimediaCommons #WikiData @wm_au@wikis.world

For knowledge to genuinely be open the owners of that knowledge must want it to be. There is much work to be done by open communities to reconcile the goals of free and open knowledge with respect for Indigenous content and honouring self-determination. These documents are one step in that direction. https://elliottbledsoe.wtf/announcing-the-wikimedia-australia-indigenous-content-guide/ #CultureStrong #Wikimania #Wikipedia #WikimediaCommons #WikiData @wm_au@wikis.world

Congratulations to Dr Terri Janke, Shevaun Wright and Matilda Langford for the immense effort that went into the documents.

US & UK branches of Wiki Workers United, the two largest countries in Wikimedia Foundation's staffing, are both officially in the midst of seeking recognition. WWU-UK is entering formal negotiations because WMF refused voluntary recognition and chose negotiations instead. It remains to be seen whether WMF will voluntarily recognize the supermajority US union or force staff to go through a formal National Labor Relations Board election. ✊️ Wikimedia is union strong! #Wikimania #Wikimania2026
