ABSTRACT
Wikipedia is the most comprehensive encyclopedia ever created, a result of the collaboration of hundreds of thousands of people. It's operated by the Wikimedia Foundation, a non-profit.
Learn more about some of the latest developments in wiki technology: a new editing interface for Wikipedia; social features that support collaboration; a new labs and application development infrastructure for volunteers; improved media support; developments in structured data, and more.
Wikimedia's tech projects are 100% open source, and we're hoping Google and Wikimedia can learn from each other.
