Multimedia Roundtable slides from Wikimania 2013 in Hong Kong.
This two-hour discussion took place on August 8th, from 10:00am to 12:00pm local time, in Room M108.
The Multimedia Roundtable brought together a couple dozen community and WMF team members to discuss how to create a better multimedia experience on Wikipedia and Commons. We talked about new ways to view, contribute, curate, discover and use or publish media files -- and grow our audio-visual knowledge base in the process.
During this session, we first reviewed current multimedia workflows on Commons and Wikipedia, and identified some key issues that need to be solved in coming months. We then focused on a few possible solutions and invited participants to brainstorm ways that we could improve current practices to make our media ecosystem thrive.
