The Wikimedia Movement in Canada
The Wikimedia Movement in Canada examines the distinctive role Canadians have played in creating and sustaining the world's largest free encyclopedia. Drawing on interdisciplinary case studies, this volume investigates how Wikimedia projects transform the creation, circulation, and governance of knowledge. Contributors probe the relationship between identity and contribution across English, French, and Atikamekw Wikipedias, attending to questions of diversity, representation, and inclusivity. They analyze institutional partnerships, demonstrating how collaborations extend public access to cultural knowledge and reshape institutional practices. Finally, they explore the forms of literacy required for meaningful engagement in Wikimedia environments, including digital, legal, and algorithmic literacies, and reflects on their implications for both amateur and professional contributors. A rich, multifaceted examination of open culture in practice, this volume offers a rigorous exploration of how collaboration and knowledge-sharing shape Canada's evolving digital landscape.
