0 Cultural Identities in Wikipedia (Wikimania 2016) /slideshow/cultural-identities-in-wikipedia-wikimania-2016/62960487 ciraculturalcontextualization16wikimania-160611151024
Unlike in most social network platforms, in Wikipedia editors are not encouraged to disclose personal traits, hobbies or affiliations. In fact, I think the identity issue has not been discussed enough. Since the project is dedicated to promote a common good, there is no content ownership, and the personal aspects become uncomfortable, or partly taboo. However, I defend that identity matters, in terms of building a Wikipedian reputation, and that editors' identities are tightly related to the content. As a Wikipedian, would you contribute equally if you couldn't choose the topics? In this presentation I want to address the creation process and composition of Wikipedia language editions as a matter of identity. Our research on the issue has shown us that an identity-based motivation allows editors to conciliate the Wikipedian identity in the community along with their other identities. Therefore, in order to act congruently with each of such identities, they contribute with content related to them. To assess the influence of this motivation type, we developed a method and identified articles related to each Wikipedia language edition's Cultural Identities. The results on 40 Wikipedias show that this kind of content represents almost a quarter of each language edition. We analyze the content in terms of topical coverage and find that different specific topics emerge as important for each of them, although the most important topics are generally Geography, People and Culture. Inspecting how articles related to each language edition's cultural identities are exported to other languages, we show relationships between Wikipedias. The selection of articles reflecting each Wikipedia language based cultural identities is a rich source for research, but can be also a useful base to establish an intercultural exchange between Wikipedia language editions. We propose the diversity of content across languages to be seen as an asset, and the spread of content specific to a language edition to be facilitated by automatic tools. The main point is to recognize the power of identity as a motivator for action and as a driver for change. Finally, we present a project called Wikiidentities in which we will disseminate the results of the research, make the datasets available, and provide some ideas and debate on how identities can be key to bridge the culture gap in any Wikipedia.]]>

Most of the times we hear design for engagement or for better user experiences. Why don’t we design for happiness? Who is interested in happy users? I will give various examples of games and websites whose success depends on many things but joy and pleasure. Probably the key is in their information architecture and consequently in their interaction design. We as designers have an enormous responsibility for users’ behaviours. How much aware are we of our designs implications? And how much are the users? To me, happiness in UX is the absence of frustration. Let's fight 'dark patterns' to make a more free Internet.
