Talk:Wikimedia Interactive Team

Existence
Does this team really exist yet? There is one mention in Staff and contractors in one person's title, but no link to this page (which is nearly orphan). Nemo 09:43, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
 * It has existed for roughly a year. Early on, it was 2 members of Wikimedia Discovery working on maps. The team is still often referred to as the "Maps" team, which is probably part of the confusion. Discovery's teams are relatively fluid, with teams being created or disbanded as needed. Several Discovery staff split their time between 2 teams, and people shift between teams at times. --KSmith (WMF) (talk) 22:07, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Scope
I find the usage of "interactive" quite weird, since the whole Wikimedia/MediaWiki thing is interactive by definition (web 2.0 and whatnot). I'm not proposing to change the name but I would welcome a clear definition of the scope of this work. For instance, is your expected work/interest a subset of T56213? Does "interactive" stand for "interactive multimedia content", in short "interactive content" or "interactive media"? (Interactive media is quite poor, by the way; if you have interest in this topic, you may want to improve the definitions and references there.) --Nemo 09:53, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
