| Abstract | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Wikimedia Meta-Wiki aims at serving as a central coordination platform for Wikimedia projects. Though, this coordination is mainly for administrative or translation purposes. This Birds-of-a-Feather aims at exploring the possibility to use Wikimedia Meta-wiki as a thematic coordination platform between multilingual WikiProjects about the same topic. Potential obstacles and benefits should be identified and discussed. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
