Це короткий огляд основних сторінок на Meta. Ярлики, що використовуються тут, засновані за встановленою мовою, а код проекту і мови згруповані за алфавітом. Наприклад, Вікіпедія арабською мовою - Ar.WP. Щоб отримати грубе уявлення щодо проектів і платформ, які викладені в вихідних сторінках, в цьому тексті зазначається скільки звітів джерела було доступно і отже враховано на момент написання. (3s), наприклад, на момент публікації зведення були доступни 3 заяви на посилальної сторінці джерела.

Основні пункти (попередні):

Технологічні поліпшення повинні бути в центрі уваги, в тому числі більші інвестиції в альтернативні формати знань (наприклад, аудіо та мапи), мобільний, голосовий пошук, розширена реальність, Штучний інтелект і Вікідата (Ar, Bn, De, En, Es, Fr, He, Hi, It, Meta, Pl, Vi, Zh).

Кілька спільнот наголошують на необхідності вдосконалення багатомовного програмного забезпечення і підтримки перекладу, можливо, до створення багатомовних вікі проектів або інтеграції існуючих вікі, а також зосередитися на якості контенту, що потенційно включає в себе створення платного контенту (De, Es, He, Hi, It, Ja , Meta, Pl, Pt, Sv, Ru, Zh).

Кілька спільнот наголосили на необхідності створення гостиннішого і дружнього середовища, в тому числі розширені заходи щодо боротьби з утисками та гендерним розривом (Bn, De, Es, Fr, Meta, Pt, Ru, Vi).

Спільноти наголошують на необхідності більш тіснішої співпраці з навчальними закладами, можливо, з залученням в цьому офісів Вікімедіа (Ar, Bn, Es, He, Hi, It, Vi).

Азіатські і англійські спільноти, зазвичай, наголошують про автономний розвиток і охоплення сільських районів, щоб привести Вікімедіа в кожне село (Bn, En, Hi, Vi).

Кілька спільнот висловлюються у потребі у поліпшенні технічного співробітництва з боку WMF (De, Ru) і в занепокоєності щодо того, що рух втрачає свій освітній центр за рахунок політизації і WMF-централізму. (De, Fr, He, Meta, Pl)

The Arabic Wikipedia’s village pump discussion (3s) surfaced the view that the Wikipedia Education Program should be a priority, including opening permanent Wikimedia offices in educational institutions (§Ar1) while the related Facebook group (4s) emphasized focusing on improving technical aspects of Wikimedia Projects (§Ar2.1 (to 4)).

Bengali onwiki discussions (35s) surfaced various views such as focusing on decentralizing the movement with an emphasis on rural areas, (§Bn1.2, §Bn1.31) Wikidata development, (§Bn1.6, §Bn1.25) and creating a welcoming environment (§Bn1.21). Partnering with related organizations (§Bn1.7), developing spell correction tools (§Bn1.5) and creating audiobooks on Wikisource (§Bn1.8) should be a focus. Article writing should be easier and emphasize both content quality and quantity. Frequent global contests would be helpful, including give rewards for contribution (such as mobile data), engage students and mentor newcomers (§Bn1.20, §Bn1.33). Sister projects should be promoted (§Bn1.26) and all projects integrate Wikidata with all for automatic updating §Bn1.25). Community members at Bengali community meetups (6s) suggested promoting Wikimedia projects via Wikipedia Library buses (§Bn2.1) and calendars (§Bn2.5, §Bn2.4). The gender and content gaps (§Bn2.5, §Bn2.4) should be addressed.

The (mainly) Taiwanese Chinese Wikipedia Community on Facebook said that they would like to increase the quality of the existing articles on Wikipedia. The former chair of the defunct WMHK noted in a meeting that the lack of resources is always a problem in the community. The community wants the Foundation to support more, financially and technically, so that they can develop in a better way.

Wikipedians on English Wikipedia (13s) said that we should focus on offline accessibility (§En1), quality of information (§En11) and features like graphs and maps (§En4). We should work together with external partners and more internal collaboration like Community Tech Team (§En5). The problems of undisclosed paid editing (§En3) and Wikidata's limited usability (§En8) should also be addressed and the potentials of artificial intelligence to help us explored (§En13).

Contributors on French Wikipedia (66s) discussed that we should focus on smaller wikis, (§Fr1) build a global community, (§Fr2) promote local-language projects, (§Fr4) modernize Wikimedia platforms (§Fr5) (such as augmented reality and voice search (§Fr57) and creating more strict anti-harassment policy (§Fr7). We should focus on quality, (§Fr39) creating multilingual wikis for every project, (§Fr11) creating a welcoming environment for new users (§Fr6) and encouraging cross-cultural exchanges. (§Fr25) We should also think about neutrality of the project, (§Fr15) internationalization and providing knowledge in various formats (§Fr13). We should encourage the use of media/social media for promotion (§Fr41).

The German Wikipedia discussions (37s) discussed the idea of democratically electing expert boards among wikipedia users to improve quality (§De1.1 to 7) A welcoming social environment (§De1.8) and keeping all the articles up to date (§De1.15) has been deemed important; while Wikidata can be helpful (§De1.18) but someone has to update Wikidata as well. (§De1.19) We should focus on quality rather than quantity. (§De1.21) Wikipedia should be a democracy and all the supervisory positions should be appointed by community; possibly downsizing the WMF with a headquarter outside US and for fundraising by organizations.

(§Hi1.18) We should also engage students and teachers by collaborating with educational institutions. (§Hi1.7) We should focus on growing both quantitatively (§Hi1.20) and qualitatively, (§Hi1.14) potentially making relevant content in other languages visible on any given wiki.

(§It3.8) Some users stressed including other open-access works (§It3.3) while others said that we should focus on scanned works. (§It3.15) Italian Wikiversity (6s) suggested that the movement should focus more on sister projects of Wikipedia. (§It4.1) We should also focus on schools and children by collaborating with projects such as Vikidia. (§It4.5)

A Japanese Wikidata interview (1 user, 6s) on Twitter indicates that the seasoned Wikidata user felt that the project’s mission is unclear and it is complicated to explain. (§Ja1.1 (to 6)) A group on Slack (3s) agreed that WP has poor quality content regarding certain disciplines such as Computer sciences. (§Ja2.2) Facebook Messenger Interview (9s) surfaced the views that we should focus on comprehensiveness and decentralization of the projects, (§Ja3.1) and clarification of licenses. (§Ja3.6) We should also focus on data structure, (§Ja3.4) data relationship, (§Ja3.3) data input, (§Ja3.8) data output on Wikidata.

On the Polish Wikipedia (18s), users said that contributing to Wikipedia should be easier, (§Pl1.5) and the software should better support multilingual efforts. (§Pl1.1) Certain users suggested creation of a unified Wikipedia, such as Wikimedia Commons and Metawiki, with tools to translate same article into various languages. (§Pl1.8) Paid editors can also be hired to keep the content up to date by getting access to professional databases. (§Pl1.7) It was discussed that WMF/Movement should be politically neutral (§Pl1.2) and also that WMF Board of Trustees should represent the community better. (§Pl1.3) WMF should be only a support organization and not the organization leading the movement.
