Hello all, Wikimedia UK, Wikimedia LGBT+, and the Volunteer Supporters Network would like to invite you to our January event, *Navigating challenging topics: Creating a toolkit for supporting editors. <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Navigating_challenging_topics;_Creating_a_toolkit_for_supporting_editors>*
*A bit about the event: * *As Wikimedians, we’re part of a global movement that collaborates to share the world’s knowledge.* *We know that some topic areas can be fraught with more conflict than others.* *So what do you do when things go wrong, when you disagree, or when you’re targeted for the kind of edits that you’re making? And how can we design work so as to avoid that kind of conflict in the first place?* *This event is intended to draw together advice and best practice both for editors and those supporting editors who work in on-wiki areas which might be considered more challenging.* The event will not be recorded, but we intend to create an e-booklet afterwards, summarising both our speakers' main takeaways, and key points from our workshop discussion. You can sign up to attend here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Navigating_challenging_topics;_Creating_a_toolkit_for_supporting_editors We hope to see you there!
