In 2014, the name of the conference was changed from WikiSym to OpenSym to reflect a broadening of scope from wiki and Wikipedia research and practice to open collaboration research, including wikis and Wikipedia research, but also free/libre/open source, open data, etc. research. The conference series is held in-cooperation with ACM SIGWEB and ACM SIGSOFT and its proceedings are published in the ACM Digital Library.
