Statement of Purpose
At Wikimedia, we design with and for curious humans who rely on trustworthy content.
We as a design team work with a global community of humans who come from different experiences and places, with different goals. We are ever-evolving, learning, and growing. We remain open to change and feedback.
When making design decisions, we are guided by our principles. We use these guidelines to hold ourselves and each other accountable. We invite the broader community to engage with our design work on the basis of our Design Principles.
Design Principles
Design with Others
We collaborate with others through means of inclusion of ideas, research sessions, and working as openly as possible.
- Is this design the outcome of collaboration?
- Did we listen to and learn from people with different backgrounds and perspectives?
- Have we learned from the target audience that their needs are met?
For Curious Humans
We welcome and consider a universal audience, striving to remove barriers to accessing knowledge which satisfies human curiosity.
- Is this design accessible, inclusive, and equitable?
- Does this idea encourage or allow for adaptability based on the preference of the person using it?
- Is there opportunity for wonder in the experience?
Trustworthy
We design to enable the sharing and greater understanding of trustworthy knowledge, while maintaining the integrity of people's privacy.
- Are we minimizing the data we collect about people in both our design solution and the process to create it?
- Are we communicating information explicitly and honestly?
- Does this design help users confidently access and share well-sourced, reliable knowledge?
Content First
We aim for content to be at the center of Wikimedia projects, and to facilitate its comprehension and use.
- Is this design prioritizing the most contextually important information?
- Is the content presented in a way that supports clear understanding?
- Does this design help make it easy to learn from, improve, and spread content?

Process
How to get involved and work with us
We welcome help in many ways, but we have limited time and have priorities based on the Foundation's roadmap to focus on. We want to make sure we foster an environment where community designers can contribute to the projects as well as developers.
A few ways to help out by volunteering your time:
- Review, create or contribute to Phabricator design tasks with one of the following tags:
- Design – for issues or requests related to design in Wikimedia movement projects
- Design-Research – for design research requests
- Codex, Design System for Wikimedia – including our default user interface library based on Vue.js (intended to replace OOUI), our design tokens and icons collection
- OOUI – our former default user interface library (2015-2022, maintained and improved, but without new feature development)
- Accessibility – for all tasks that are meant to make our interface more accessible and inclusive
- MediaWiki-Interface
- Learn about the Wikimedia design principles and how to give design feedback
