I just started this page on Meta, Meta:Neuro-inclusive event strategies. I invite anyone to contribute who might be interested in building knowledge in the Wikimedia community about how to make events more accessible for autistic people.

You are invited to join the discussion at Talk:International Meeting for Autism Research about re-naming the page for the (now-defunct) IMFAR meeting (replaced by the INSAR annual meeting) as the page for INSAR, the autism research professional society itself that ran said meeting and continues to run the annual meeting. This society does not have a page despite similar societies having such pages, and it could be relevant to the project. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Dear colleagues! Thank you for your work, it is very important and inspires people in other editions to engage in activism and education through Wikipedia. I coordinate a similar project in the Basque Wikipedia and would be very happy to collaborate with you.

Kaixo! I'd love to discuss that with you. I'm very interested in the Basque country, where I've spent a bit of time, and more generally in the project of translating ideas about autism into different languages.

I recently went through the current version of the Wikipedia article on Autism , and I found that this article is NOT representing the reality or encyclopedic wholeness. The huge, verbose, highly technical article is biased towards medical model of disability, medical genetics, and nearly zero information regarding the anthropology, evolution, neurodiversity, accommodation, accessibility, Augmentative and alternative communications, and all that actually helps wellbeing of Autistic people. The page boldly focuses on controversial methods such as ABA, such as EIBI (Early intensive behavioral interventions), DTT (discrete trial training) etc. without any mention of the concerns or criticisms against them. I entered the talk page, but it has been turned literally into a warzone, where any dissenting viewpoint is being silenced in name of "global and unanimous scientific consensus" which is simply wrong. It is mostly a view held by biomedical and pharmaceutical majority. But outside of that, opposing viewpoints do exist in actual Autistic populations (who have the lived experience), anthropology, sociology, psychology, etc. I added an "unbalanced" tag for reader information (I did not speak for complete erasure of controversial viewpoints, just needed the reader to know that there are other views), however the "unbalanced" tag was soon reverted.
It is not possible for me to daily attend and post arguments and counter-arguments. I have to acknowledge that, if this kind of silencing continues, this time Wikipedia literally failed as an encyclopedia, as well it failed at public health and education welfare perspective.

The central issue concerns the problem of balancing medical model perspectives with those associated with neurodiversity: a question with implications for nearly every autism-related page, although it is centred on the Autism entry for now.
Anyone who feels invested in the future of autism coverage on Wikipedia might like to be aware that this process is ongoing, and my understanding is that anyone who wishes to participate can invite themselves on board. We expect that a series of RfCs will follow, which will presumably demand separate notifications.
I have removed the 'inactive' template from this project on the basis that things are now happening!
I am cautiously hopeful that a much better entry will come about as a result of this, in terms of balance, readability and usefulness; and that conclusions reached will help make it possible to improve a range of other, related entries.
