Designing a Model for Community Participation

What if

Scenario 6: What if a community organizer could propose and co-create reaction buttons for warning platform administrators to develop a feedback system on platforms that safeguards users against hateful content.

Persona

• Goals: Develop safer online platforms and close the gender gap in terms of representation of leaders, creators, and participants on the platform. I propose that reaction buttons can be used for feedback and warning management.
• Background: Academia
• Pronouns: She/ her
• Pain points: Demands and goals not taken into account as a serious priority by online community spaces
• Needs: promote her research and content and create communities across different platforms to combat gender inequality online

User scenario

Marta works on feminist community building and development within Wikipedia. She wants to perform research to contribute to the field of User Experience (UX) research by theorizing on the felt experience of users from a memory perspective, taking into consideration aspects linked to both personal and collective memories in the context of connected environments with the goal of highlighting unequal gender representation and the oppressive online cultures that perpetuate them.
