Hi fellow travellers: I started editing Wikipedia in 2005, but never quite continued beyond my first blustering correction of an academic reference (fuelled by the ubiquitous Wikipedian conviction that 'someone is *wrong*'). Amazingly, that anonymous edit still remains. 2012 was my year of return.
In my real life avatar as Anasuya Sengupta, I used to head the Grantmaking department (now Community Engagement) at the Wikimedia Foundation; I left in 2015. In 2016, Siko Bouterse, Adele Godoy Vrana and I co-founded a global multi-lingual campaign - Whose Knowledge? - to center online the knowledges of marginalised communities (the majority of the world). Together with our amazing friends and partners around the world, we hope to re-imagine and redesign the internet to be for and from us all.
