Friends from the Oxford Internet Institute well-known for their global Wikipedia research, including Mark Graham, are organizing a workshop for Middle East contributors to Wikipedia in Amman next month. But interest in participating has been so low that they may need to postpone. If you edit Middle East articles and are from the region, or if you know anyone who fits the criteria, please see the invites below:

This is a really great initiative and it would be sad for them to have to cancel! Best, Heather.
