On a related note, the Foundation Blog https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/04/07/misinfocon-fake-news/ proudly announces that "the Wikimedia Foundation joined a handful of media organization at the MIT Media Lab to lend their expertise at MisInfoCon". That's certainly good to hear, but a little short on details In the interests, of transparency, please could someone post a pointer to a fuller description of the expertise that the Foundation has in this area (as opposed to the community of volunteers), and a pointer to the submissions, papers or other contributions that those experts made at the meeting?
