Messy start to something consequential
A large wall-mounted screen displays a PowerPoint slide titled “What are the necessary components to disagreement?” The left side lists components such as exchange, friction, position taking, and reference to symbolic systems. The right side lists factors that influence productiveness, including humility and stubbornness. The screen shows the PowerPoint interface with slide thumbnails on the left and editing tools on the top ribbon.

Understanding disagreements
A large wall-mounted screen displays a slide with white text on a black background titled “Scope and content of the disagreement point to different levels.” Below it are three bullet points labelled TECHNICAL, EPISTEMIC, and IDEOLOGICAL, each describing a different type of disagreement. A wall-mounted screen shows a slide with white text on a black background discussing Dascal’s typology and its relevance for understanding disagreements on Wikipedia.

We're doing poetry!!
A presentation slide titled “Transform your snippet (content)” offers five approaches for reworking a piece of text. The options listed are: 1) Found poetry—cut out 5–15 words or phrases and rearrange them; 2) Highlight the tension—mark the moment where disagreement appears and cut just that part; 3) Redact—cross out everything except 5–15 key words or phrases; 4) What’s underneath—draw or write what people were really disagreeing about; 5) Make it visual—use shapes, arrows, or drawings to show the structure. At the bottom the slide says “Remember: One approach. One page. 10 minutes.”

Some excellent binary deconstruction happening
A presentation slide projected on a large screen reads: “Can (online) public disagreements be knowledge producing?” followed by “Yes AND No – depending on conditions.” The slide lists two points: “1. TODAY: exploring content (meaning) and form (conditions) – DRAFTS” and “2. TOMORROW: structuring and compiling – FINESSING.”

Setting the agenda: Heather Ford on the history of the wiki studies group and why studying disagreements—in both form and substance—is so important.
A presentation slide displayed on a large screen reads “wikihistories 2025 — Arguing on the internet.” Two bullet points ask: “When can disagreement be knowledge producing?” and “How do platform infrastructures and digital technologies serve or hamper productive disagreement?” A presentation slide titled “What knowledge?” outlines points about public knowledge. The bullet points describe how communities apply rules to determine truth, how truths are public and democratic principles matter, and that rules should be flexible and communally determined.
