I work on Wikipedia’s Future Audiences team, where we try to reach new readers and editors. We built a small experiment: an iOS app where users can remix Wikipedia content into digital scrapbooks.

- All of the content comes from Wikimedia projects (even the “stickers”).

- We want to learn whether people might be interested in remixing Wikimedia content for themselves or for sharing with friends or on social platforms.

If you're not on iOS you can see a gif of the creation experience: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2d/Sunflowe....

This is a very early alpha (invite-only, limited to <100 users). So far in the app, you can:

- Create scrapbooks from Wikipedia topics using text and images from Wikipedia

- Add gifs, stickers, and sounds from freely-licensed Wikimedia content

- Share your scrapbooks as a video or set of static images

See some sample scrapbooks we’ve made, and the books you’ve created You won’t be able to see scrapbooks that other users are making (and other app users won’t be able to see yours), but we have some lightweight “liking” functionality and you might see some “likes” on your scrapbooks from our team.

Would love thoughts from HN, especially if you’ve seen other attempts at reformatting Wikipedia or educational content.
