Theme: The augmented age (Advancing with technology)
The following discussion is closed.
Cycle 2 of the discussion is now closed. Please discuss the draft strategic direction (link coming soon).
By 2030, the Wikimedia movement will actively use technological innovations to help volunteers be much more creative and productive. We will use machine learning and design to make knowledge easy to access and easy to use. To greatly increase the quality and quantity of content in more languages, volunteers will, for example, have access to better machine translations. We will present and organize knowledge in ways that improve the way people learn and contribute — beyond the browser, the app, and the encyclopedia.

View discussion of these questions on the talk page
These are the main questions we want you to consider and debate during this discussion. Please support your arguments with research when possible. We recognize you may not have time to answer all the questions; to help you choose where to focus, we have listed three types of questions below. The primary questions are the ones most important to answer during this discussion cycle.
Primary questions
What impact would we have on the world if we follow this theme?
Note that if you already submitted key ideas that answer this question for this theme in the previous discussion, consider just adding a link to that source page versus rewriting the whole statement. (see
spreadsheet
). If you have something new to add to a comment you made previously, however, please do.
How important is this theme relative to the other 4 themes? Why?
Secondary question
Focus requires tradeoffs. If we increase our effort in this area in the next 15 years, is there anything we’re doing today that we would need to stop doing?
Expansion questions
What else is important to add to this theme to make it stronger?
Who else will be working in this area and how might we partner with them?
