Wiki support for scientists and science for wiki


About

[edit]

The Wikimedia Science Hub seeks to facilitate Wikimedia activities relating to scientific and other scholarly content from all disciplines of systematic inquiries. In terms of knowledge domains, this includes the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, engineering, mathematics, medicine and so on. On the wiki side, it includes all content, communities and infrastructure of Wikimedia wikis as well as supporting activities.

The Hub concept

[edit]

Within the Wikimedia ecosystem, Hubs are intended to facilitate community interactions within a certain scope. The scope can be regional, thematic or linguistic, and the Science Hub is a thematic one.

Tightly interwoven wiki and scientific matters

[edit]

This is about activities, materials or processes in which the wiki aspects and the scientific aspects are closely intertwined, e.g. because the research is both based on and contributing to wiki matters.
