RENDER

Wikimedia Deutschland e. V., the German Wikimedia Chapter, was one use case partner in the European Union-funded international research project RENDER. This project is concerned with the reflection and leverage of knowledge diversity in different settings and applications. We developed tools that enable Wikipedia editors to find, understand and cure biased and non-neutral articles. The official project has been finished in September 2013. We are going to maintain the tools and expand them according to the needs of the Wikipedia community. In case of any ideas or wishes, please get in touch with us.
