Trigger the production of content: new articles, improvements, editing of existing OER
Peer review process on Wikipedia, with the involvement of journals, with the involvement of experts

Thank you Luca &all.
Why
1. Wikipedia claims to be an educational tool 2. It is powerful (500 million readers) 3. It is more and more accessible (online, mobile, offline) 4. Making sure it provides (good) content related to education 5. Improving underrepresented content 6. Taking advantage of existing resources and expertise 7. Making sure we take into consideration who Wikipedia is “educating” and what it is “teaching” 8. Supporting Wikipedia and its (potential and new) communities
What we are not going to do
1. We do not break Wikipedia rules. 2. We do not work for governments and ministries of education. 3. We do not consider Wikipedia a schoolbook. 4. We do not promote Wikipedia as a stable and passive resource. 5. We do not centralize all the activities, and in any case we can’t. !
