TEC9: Address Knowledge Gaps
 * Goal Owner: Leila Zia
 * Program Goals for FY18/19: We help Wikimedia editors identify gaps in the content, readership, and contributors of Wikimedia projects, as well as means for reducing such gaps. We enable Wikimedia developers to build products and services that can surface and help reduce Wikimedia knowledge gaps. We research and develop end-to-end technologies and systems that automatically identify such gaps, prioritize them, and recommend actions or frameworks for reducing them.
 * Annual Plan: TEC9: Address Knowledge Gaps
 * Primary Goal is Knowledge Equity: grow new contributors and content
 * Tech Goal: Supporting our Community of contributors

Status
January 17, 2019
 * A variety of meetings (during All-Hands and otherwise) are set up with external and internal people to achieve the first 3 goals. The last goal can be picked up once all other ones are completed.

February 22, 2019
 * The first two goals are ✅. The other two goals are . We are working with Policy, Scoring Platform, and Berkman Klein center to organize a workshop in April or May 2019 and that can help with gathering more input from external subject matter experts. The third goal corresponding to gathering external expert input may as a result be extended to Q4. The last goal is and will be published by the end of March (current quarter).

March 2019


 * The report is finalized and soon will be published on Figshare. I feel comfortable to call the last goal listed above as Done based on that. The third goal listed needs some more iterations in Q4.

Outcome 1 / Output 1
One or more of the following: Interested editors will be able to use recommendation services that will allow them to have relevant information about the articles they want to edit immediately at their repository. Newcomers can more easily contribute to Wikimedia projects.

February 22, 2019
 * Both goals are still . No major blockers exist.

March 2019
 * We ran one set of feedback collection and we received two lines of feedback. While we could call the goals as achieved based on those, we see a need for some more deeper feedback. As a result, for now we keep the status as in-progress and continue working on it in Q4 until we see enough feedback and results to help us iterate on the model.

February 22, 2019
 * This goal is ✅. We have built a simple UI for testing the API with community members as well. https://secrec.wmflabs.org/

Outcome 2 / Output 1
Interested editors, developers, and partners can identify more types of gaps in content
 * An improved article recommendation pipeline and API

Dependancies on: Analytics

Goal(s)

 * Set up the production pipeline to generate recommendations in Hadoop ✅
 * Improve the current API to filter out newly created articles ✅
 * Improve the model for identifying similar Wikidata items

Status
January 17, 2019
 * There are quite a few team dependencies for having this work completed. At the moment, we are making good progress.

February 22, 2019
 * Some of the smaller tasks have been completed. We're still ❌ on some of the items like, which will happen in Q4, it seems. We also switched focus to page-links-change event stream during this month. Now that it's in a good shape, we'll pick up this output during March again and work on tasks such as that are not blocked on other teams.

March 2019


 * Parts of the production pipeline that don't depend on Analytics have been automated. Once we're unblocked on and, we'll be able to fully automate the pipeline.

Outcome 2 / Output 2
Interested editors, developers, and partners can identify more types of gaps in content
 * A framework for understanding and measuring the knowledge gaps and inequality of access to knowledge that includes reader representation by demographics and characterizes readers who come to Wikipedia based on their readership characteristics as well as demographics.

Dependancies on: Formal Collaborators, Legal, Reading Web

Goal(s)

 * Finalize the choice of Wikipedia languages for running the demographics survey ✅
 * Work with Legal to develop a privacy statement for the new round of survey ✅
 * Run the survey in one or more Wikipedia languages ✅
 * Prepare the data for analysis in the following quarter

Status
January 17, 2019
 * We are on track for this goal. Conversations with Legal about the type of demographic questions we can ask is ongoing and our understanding is that we can conclude them soon. We are going to start working with the community on 2019-01-17 to identify potential languages the surveys will be launched in. We expect a test (in 1-2 wikis) no later than mid-February and if the results of the test are fine, a larger scale survey no later than the end of February, or first week of March.

February 22, 2019
 * The first goal is and we expect to finalize the list no later than 2 weeks from now. We have already made a call in wikimedia-l about it. The second goal is almost completed, . The third goal: the first test survey is scheduled for 2019-02-27 and this goal is now {[in progress}}. We expect to be able to meet the last goal by the end of March.

March 14, 2019
 * The choice of languages (first goal) is and will be completed by 2018-03-21. The two goals after that are ✅. As part of the third goal, we ran a pilot test and we are seeing some unexpected distribution of demographics as well as unexpected quicksurvey results in mobile. We have put a hold on running the survey in many more languages until we address that. The fourth goal is dropped as a result.

Outcome 3 / Output 1
More minority voices and diverse newcomers in Wikimedia projects can stay longer on the projects to contribute.
 * An improved socio-technical framework to remove the barriers for contribution by populations that are currently considered minorities on our projects.

Dependancies on: Formal Collaborators, Growth Team (potentially)

Goal(s)

 * Improve the current design of the model (to be tested) for increasing the retention of women
 * (conditional on the result of the first goal) Prepare the infrastructure for running the experiment
 * (stretch and conditional on the result of the first goal) run the experiment

Status
January 17, 2019
 * We are working on the first goal. Note that finding a model has proved itself to be very difficult as the matching of users and them collaborating has a lot of barriers at the moment. We did test this approach last quarter and could not make it work, and our hypothesis is that because of the complexity of communications between users in Wikipedia, users don't participate. We are iterating on the model now but we should note that tighter collaboration between Audiences and Tech may be needed to make this work.

February 22, 2019
 * This goal is now ❌ as a result of midterm planning and transitions in Research. We will get to it if possible during this quarter but we cannot promise this at this point.

March 2019


 * Leila discussed this set of goals with Erika Bjune and we decided to pause them for Q4. Over the past 9 months we have tried a few different ways for testing the framework that we have designed, however, the tests require front-end changes and we have not been able to mobilize resources within the Foundation to make this happen. This work remains to be of critical importance to the Foundation and we highly recommend coming back to it in the context of FY19-20 annual planning and figure out what structures we need in place to be able to do this kind of tests. We expect this line of testing to require deep collaborations between Audiences and Technology departments.

Outcome 4 / Output 1
More decision makers can make more informed decisions about the audiences to target, the gaps to prioritize, and other research findings. More researchers can build on top of the knowledge generated through this research.

Dependancies on: Formal collaborators

Status
January 17, 2019
