Thank you for the report Mariana.
Decolonising Wikidata was one of the high points of 2021 Wikimedia vectors.
This looks impressive, inspirational and I hope we catch up soon as we did
in 2021 for CEE Spring special session.
Super curious over State of the Internet's Languages - there is so much to
update there from language policies. They shaped discrepancies of Wikipedia
instances and set the tone for much of interaction with top down language
norms to bottom up communities.
