The role of service activities in Wikiversity

This page focuses on services that Wikiversity can provide to the larger Wikimedia community.

Wikiversity exists within the Wikimedia family of projects that is dominated by Wikipedia but which includes other projects such as Wikibooks and Wikinews. Wikiversity strives to provide useful services to WikiMedia sister projects. A continual problem facing Wikipedia, Wikibooks, and Wikinews is finding good sources to cite.

Wikiversity is a center for scholarship in finding and critically evaluating sources. Wikiversity encourages its participants to take part in Learning Projects that support the improvement of Wikimedia sister projects by finding and evaluating sources and providing verifiable references for Wikipedia and Wikinews articles and Wikibooks textbook modules.
