Strategic Aim 1 – Knowledge Equity

• Develop partnerships that increase access to underrepresented cultural heritage
• Support the development of minority and indigenous language Wikipedias
• Encourage new and existing partners to help tackle the gender gap on Wikimedia
• Identify other areas of inequality and bias and create partnerships to help address these
• Engage with volunteers and partners across the UK, widening the charity’s geographic reach
• Diversify content producers by recruiting new editors from under-represented communities
• Support the development of a more inclusive culture across the Wikimedia projects
• Ensure that Wikimedia UK’s own policies and practices support diversity and inclusion

Progress

Update on the Wikidata Map of Accused Witches project – our student intern has begun her final 12 week role as of 15 July 2024

• Ruby Imrie's started full-time for a final 12 weeks as of 15 July 2024) to (1) perform the important Nuxt.js upgrade to the site (2) improve the site design and UX experience and (3) build new features e.g. a Map of Memorials and Glossary pages. Beta site is available to look at: test.witches.is.ed.ac.uk.
• Ruby has been using R to compare Wikidata with the Survey of Scottish Witchcraft to quality assure the witchcraft data. Checked datasets are marked with a Y on the Wikidata project page.
• Current progress since end of August 2024 includes:
  • E. Whitehead has completed an expanded Glossary of terms related to Scottish witch trials. R. Imrie has almost completed the Nuxt.js upgrade (A. Millington to review before upgrade is deployed to live site) and has added the Glossary of Terms to the website and made it searchable by A–Z listing and by category (e.g. Ritual Objects).
  • E. Whitehead has completed new Introduction to the Scottish witch trials and Further Reading pages.
  • R. Imrie is due to conclude her internship on 11 October 2024 so plans are underway to launch the new improved Version Two of the website in time for her leacing date or soon after.

Women in Red workshops

Three new 'Women in Red' workshops in planning stages.

1. Scottish Castles and Witch Lore – E. Whitehead and E. McAndrew planning Scottish Castles and Witch/Ghostlore editathon for Friday, 27 September 2024 to tie in with Wiki Loves Monuments.
2. Ada Lovelace Day event celebrating Women in STEM planned for Tues 8 October 2024 and will have Robotics/AI theme.
3. Celebration of Nursing – E. Whitehead and E. McAndrew continue to liaise with colleagues at Queen’s Nursing Institute, Royal College of Nursing and Senior Lecturers in Nursing at the University of Edinburgh to form a small planning committee for an event to (potentially) held at the EFI building later this year. International Nurses Day on 12 May 2025 has been mooted but conversations with Patricia Erskine and Marti Balaam have suggested alternative dates may work better. NB: This has fallen on the back burner for now.

Partnership interactions

• Curious Edinburgh – new witch tour of Edinburgh – E. Whitehead has been trained by Geoff Fortescue, Media Suite Manager, in August to be able to undertake professional film recording of Professor Julian Goodare and Louise Yeoman reading the 100–200 words on each of the 18 stops of the walking tour. Filming to take place on 12 and 19 September 2024. After the editing of these clips, the tour can be launched (hopefully in time for Halloween or soon after).
• Edinburgh Theses Data – E.McAndrew approached Alasdair MacDonald and Gavin Willshaw at Library & University Collections about uploading University of Edinburgh theses data to Wikidata following University of Otago's exemplary work detailed at Wikimania 2024. This response has been favourable and we should be able to work to achieve this in due course.
