At Wikimania 2012 in Washington DC, I asked some of the participants for ideas on how to make Wikipedia better. Here are their suggestions. We are now working on several new features to support some of these great ideas. Thanks for the inspiration!


Video Slide Show

Tech note: This is an .ogv version of this video tour (based on the open video compression format from Theora). This format is widely supported by modern browsers such as Firefox and Chrome, but may not play on some browsers, such as Safari -- or mobile platforms like iOS. Some of these browsers (e.g.: desktop version of Safari) will give you the option to quickly install a Theora-compatible driver when you view this page. This video is also available in other file formats on YouTube and on Vimeo.
