Title: (canceled) Making WP more engaging with interactive Maps and Graphs

Author: Yuri Astrakhan

Description: Learn how to add maps to Wikipedia and illustrate them with the content relevant to the article. How interactive graphs can tell a much better story than static images. We will also discuss new developments with sharing data cross-wiki, and other new technologies.

Targeted participants: Anyone who wants to increase the number of rich content in Wikipedia. It would be helpful to know what is JSON for the technical portion of the talk.

Preparatory readings or materials: TBD

Interested attendees:
