Having a background in project management and communication, I am interested in methods to organize and support collaboration processes. Since 2016 I am a staff member of Wikimedia Deutschland and I am still excited about the Wikimedia Movement and proud to be able to support it. As Head of Community Growth & Relations I work closely together with the German Wikimedia communities. In our team we focus on community growth with outreach, activation and onboarding activites.
Session
This roundtable explores central communication hubs across various Wikipedia language versions, depending on participants’ backgrounds. Drawing from insights from the German community, we navigate talk pages, village pumps, and other platforms to analyze centralized spaces for communication and decision making. Insights into community dynamics and best practices for maintaining these hubs are shared. Whether seasoned or new to the Wikiverse, participants engage in a discussion on how communication shapes collaboration in Wikipedia's multilingual ecosystem.
