Notice of paid work relating to Wikipedia

I advise clients professionally on how to edit Wikipedia ethically, but I do not make edits on their behalf. All paid work relating to Wikipedia is subject to my professional Statement of Ethics. Here I list major projects:

In 2020-2021 I will be leading the News On Wiki campaign, which is funded by a microgrant from the WikiCred initiative. My primary efforts will be to recruit and coordinate volunteers in creating Wikipedia articles about news publications; I will also do some of this work myself. I am doing similar work for the Wikipedia:Architects Build Wiki initiative also in 2021.

In 2012-2014, I lead Communicate OER. This project aims to build the Wikipedia community and the quality of Wikipedia content. I generally do very little editing in article space in connection with this project. When I do, it is in order to assist and train new Wikipedia contributors (not to advance an editorial objective). Currently I am teaching this online course on editing Wikipedia, as part of CommOER: Wikipedia:School of Open course

In 2011-2012 I had business relationship with the charitable organization Consumer Reports, and I made occasional Wikipedia edits in connection to this work. See WP:Consumer Reports, and the announcement on my blog, for more about this project.

Feel free to contact me, either on my talk page or privately, if you have questions, ideas, or concerns relating to my work.
