Wikimedia Research

Welcome to the new home of Wikimedia Research. Bear with us until we expand this stub.

Mandate
Our mission is to produce knowledge about Wikimedia’s users and projects. We use qualitative and quantitative methods to provide strategic insights and technological solutions to the Wikimedia movement and the Wikimedia Foundation, to foster innovation and to inform the development of new products. Our audience includes the Wikimedia Foundation's audience teams, members of the Wikimedia community, and external academic and research partners. Wikimedia Research brings together Design Research (formerly part of UX) and Research and Data (formerly part of Analytics).

Top Priorities
These are our current priorities for the 2015-16 fiscal year.

Projects
We're building a comprehensive list of projects led by the team. Bear with us until we migrate the documentation from other pages.
