The Product and Technology Advisory Council is a group recently formed to advise on the development of product and technology in the Wikimedia ecosystem. It is composed of community members and some Foundation representatives.

In this session, the PTAC members will present the Council, its work in these first few months, and its recommendations, followed by questions and discussion.

Chat with the Wikimedia Foundation trustees about the pressing issues facing Wikimedia.

As wikimedians, we like conflicts. We have (strong) opinions, and we have (hard) feelings. This will be a space to voice them, on one topic in particular: our responsibilities towards society. As wikipedians, should we document every kind of content, even if controversial or offensive? Or should we always keep in mind the effect that Wikipedia has on society, and worry that what we say might be harmful?

The session will start with a debate between two opposing voices, followed by a discussion among the attendees, with the aim of allowing different voices to be heard, and understanding each other’s point of view. Agreeing is not expected!
