Some of our community members asked for a lean and simple way to contribute to the Imaging Wiki. We listened and we will deliver. Community engagement is a milestone of the Imaging Wiki 2.0 project, but we first want to make sure that the infrastructure of the Imaging Wiki is solid enough before the next Edit-a-thon in January 2027.
Interested?
Send an email to aic.imagingwg@gmail.com specifying 'Wiki contribution pilot' in the subject, our Wiki Coordinator will reach out as soon as the project will start.
