Adds guidance for managing the SIGSOFT Wikipedia page as a formal communication channel in the playbook.

Changes

  • Channel Overview — Wikipedia added to the channel table (audience: general public; owner: Information Director)
  • Channel Definition — New section with:
    • When to update: leadership changes, milestones, conference list changes, factual corrections, notable award recipients
    • How to update: step-by-step covering account requirements, Wikipedia's neutrality/verifiability/citation policies, and Talk page coordination
    • Not appropriate: CFPs, job postings, promotional content, uncited claims
    • Note that Wikipedia is community-edited — SIGSOFT does not control its content
  • Content Type Matrix — Wikipedia column added; marked relevant for "Committee updates" and "Organizational milestones"
  • Contacts — Wikipedia row added pointing to Information Director

💡 You can make Copilot smarter by setting up custom instructions, customizing its development environment and configuring Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Learn more Copilot coding agent tips in the docs.
