Who we fund

The Research Fund provides support to individuals, groups, and organizations with interest in conducting research on or about Wikimedia projects. We encourage submissions from across research disciplines including but not limited to the humanities, social sciences, computer science, education, and law.

We prioritize supporting applicants who have limited access to research funding, are in regions of the world where the Wikimedia research community has less representation, are proposing work in coordination or collaboration with Wikimedia affiliates, and/or are proposing work that has potential for direct, positive impact on their local communities or the global Wikimedia communities.

补助内容

We welcome two types of submissions:

  1. In-depth research proposals to contribute to generalizable knowledge that has the potential to improve and expand our understanding of the Wikimedia projects and their impact, introduce technical and socio-technical solutions that can enhance the technology in support of the Wikimedia projects, and advance the Wikimedia Movement towards the 2030 strategic direction.
  2. Proposals that focus on strengthening, expanding and diversifying the community of researchers studying Wikimedia projects.

For other proposal types, please see other sources of funding, including the Wikimedia Community Fund and the Wikimedia Alliances Fund.

补助方式

申请流程

阶段一
Applicants submit proposals in response to the call for Research Fund Proposals.所有提案都会公开,以便社群成员和区域基金委员会提供反馈。研究基金委员会和评审员将评估所有提案,将社群意见纳入考量,并邀请排名较前的申请者们至下一阶段提交完整提案。
阶段二
Applicants whose proposals are invited for Stage Ⅱ submissions submit their full proposal. These proposals will be made publicly available and are significantly more elaborate than Stage Ⅰ proposals and will include a full budget. They will also need to include responses to meta-reviews from Stage I.

审核流程

我们采用单盲审查程序,申请人的身份是已知的,但研究基金委员会的审查员是匿名的。研究基金委员会成员将自行声明他们对每项提案的专业知识,并向委员会主席披露任何潜在的利益冲突。每项提案将至少接受三名委员审查,并且可以根据要求从七个维基媒体区域基金委员会中的一或多位委员会获得意见。每个提案还可以通过元维基上的结构化反馈过程,获得维基媒体志愿者社群的意见。每份提案都将收到委员会主席的综合评分和综合审查。提案会经由审查员和委员会主席讨论,并考量到区域基金委员会和志愿者社群的意见。再由研究委员会主席做出最终决定。

评选标准

我们根据以下标准评估提案:

  • Research. The primary focus of the proposed work must be either to conduct research designed to contribute to generalizable knowledge or research community building. Because they are not focused on generalizable knowledge, research efforts on understanding the specific needs of an organization or community will not be considered. Note that proposals with primary focus on outreach, technology development/deployment, institutional support, or other non-research activities, or research focused on specific organizations are funded through other funds offered by the Wikimedia Foundation.
  • 关联。 研究必须在和维基媒体计划相关,或对维基媒体计划具有重要意义。
  • 影响。我们会优先考虑旨在使维基媒体社群能够根据所进行的研究,做出具重大影响力决定或采取行动的提案。我们将特别考虑直接针对“维基媒体2030”策略方向(包括但不限于 运动建议)的提案,以及尝试使用维基百科上不常见的语言来回答问题的提案。
  • 申请人及其相应机构的地理位置。因为我们的目的是增加为维基媒体专案做出贡献的研究人员的地域多样性,所以鼓励来自中南美洲、非洲、东欧和亚洲的提案,也会给予这些提案特殊考量。
  • 社群。我们的目标是资助能协助维基媒体社群迈向下一步的工作。我们将优先考虑支持由维基媒体用户组、附属机构和开发者社群支援或共事的提案。我们鼓励申请者在您的团队中纳入一至多名这些社群的成员,并查阅201920202021的社群愿望清单,以了解这些群体提出的想法和问题。
  • 对相关学术领域和/或研究项目,和/或维基媒体和自由文化社群的先前贡献。我们会审查申请人自行报告的贡献,以更深入地了解申请人的兴趣、技能和能力。

预算

最高申请金额为50,000美元,我们打算在这一轮提供最少六笔赞助款。预算细目不必在初始申请中就提出,但我们要求针对以下类别(如果适用)做粗略估算以及简要说明:

  • 工资或津贴
  • 效益
  • 硬件设备
  • 软件
  • 开放近用出版费用
  • 机构管理费(最高占总预算15%)
  • 其他(如说明)

Because the WMF mission is focused on education, budgets should not include faculty teaching “buyouts”—i.e., any budgeting for salary or effort that will result in a reduction of teaching. If the research project being proposed is absolutely not possible without a buyout, please provide context in your budget request and an exception will be considered by the Research Fund Committee.

Final grant amounts are up to the discretion of the Research Fund Committee, who may reach out to finalists to ask for a reduced budget and a proportionally reduced scope of work. Funds will be disbursed in one payment at the beginning of the funding period (As early as May 2024).

伦理

所有提案都应遵循研究伦理原则以及与人体试验相关的规范和指南。我们鼓励作者阅读《门罗报告》(Menlo Report)获得有关伦理原则的更多资讯、《Allman/Paxson IMC '07论文》 以获得有关数据共享的伦理指南,以及《Sandvig et al. '14论文》中关于算法审计伦理的内容。入围者必须解决可能的道德争议并在提案说明他们如何解决这些争议。机构审查委员会的审查(如有需要)需在补助分配之前完成。

研究产出

为了让维基媒体志工社群、分支机构和基金会可操作和重复使用您的研究结果,您必须确保您的任何研究产出都符合WMF开放近用政策。我们鼓励您将开放近用出版的成本纳入预算中。

获补助者应让在MetaWiki:Research上创建专案页面,逐月记录工作进度。此外,他们也要以指定的模板完成最终财务和专案报告,并在未来的维基媒体研究活动以及其所研究社群的活动中,至少展示一次。

研究补助申请周期

  1. 公开征件,并为有兴趣的申请人举办办公室对谈时间
  2. 第一阶段提案审查,包括资格审查、技术审查、社群审查和区域补助委员会审查
  3. 邀请晋级决选者提交第二阶段计划
  4. 第二阶段技术审查
  5. 最终结果
