[Irtalk] Call For Proposals: the Wikipedia Science Conference (deadline 8 May) | Wikimedia UK Blog

[Hilton Gibson]

Wikimedia UK and Wellcome Trust are delighted to welcome session proposals
for the Wikipedia Science Conference – the first of its kind – taking place
in London on the 2nd and 3rd of September.

*The two-day conference reflects the growing interest in Wikipedia and its
sister projects as a platform not just for communicating science but for
scientific research and publishing.* Last year, a clinical review paper
authored on Wikipedia was published in a peer-reviewed academic journal.
Meanwhile, scientists and Wikipedians are using papers, data, and figures
to improve Wikipedia and related projects such as Wikidata .
