Wikipedia & Open Source Roles
Since 2017, I have been actively dedicating my skills to community organization, cultural digital preservation, and editor coordination.
Volunteer of the Wikimedia Movement
As a highly active volunteer across global Wikimedia projects, I have made more than 3.4 million edits across several open platforms. This contribution represents a persistent dedication to local history, linguistic representation, and broad-ranging general documentation, keeping free educational resources up to date for millions of global searchers.
Member of Wikimedia Bangladesh
In my ongoing association with Wikimedia Bangladesh, I support the chapter’s active mission of creating deep awareness among the citizens of Bangladesh regarding the value and presence of open knowledge platforms. I work to show individuals how to effectively use open-source content, integrate reliable research tools, and securely navigate these platforms to enhance their academic and personal discovery.
Chief Coordinator of the Rajshahi Wikimedia Community
In my capacity as Chief Coordinator, I guide our regional team in arranging localized workshops, interactive educational seminars, regular study circles, and technical training programs. We design these activities in active partnerships and strategic cooperation with regional academic institutes, research teams, and interested organizations to systematically expand, share, and promote the use of free, open-source educational resources.
GLAM Preservation & Digitization Initiatives
My practical dedication to open archival materials also extends to physical digitization projects. Under a formal contract with Wikimedia Bangladesh, I have worked directly on the preservation of historical out-of-print literature, scanning more than 25,000 pages of copyright-free books. This effort guarantees that critical regional publications are shielded from deterioration and remain permanently accessible to the world.
