Hub Research in West Africa
by Abdulfatai Mustapha 03 Aug '22

03 Aug '22

Hello again, The West Africa Hub Research team is conducting a research on Initiative 25: Regional and thematic hubs in West Africa and your responses will be of utmost importance to us in conducting this research. In view of this, we've created a survey to engage Wikimedia community members of the West African subregion's perception of Wikimedians on hubs. The primary goal of this survey is to help us understand; 1. What do African volunteers in West Africa think about hubs? 2. What obstacles these hubs in West Africa can address? The questionnaire will help us understand the perspectives of communities in West Africa, as well as provide a description of how a hub should be set up. This survey should take about 5 minutes to complete. https://forms.gle/szX17P2xh4hQUCqb6 Thanks. Abdulfatai Mustapha <mustaphasunkanmi(a)gmail.com> Communications Manager, Hubs Research in West Africa Rebonjour, L'équipe de recherche West Africa Hub mène une recherche sur l'Initiative 25 : Hubs régionaux et thématiques en Afrique de l'Ouest et vos réponses seront de la plus haute importance pour nous dans la conduite de cette recherche. Compte tenu de cela, nous avons créé une enquête pour engager les membres de la communauté Wikimedia de la sous-région ouest-africaine sur la perception des Wikimédiens sur les hubs. L'objectif principal de cette enquête est de nous aider à comprendre; 1. Que pensent les volontaires africains en Afrique de l'Ouest des hubs ? 2. Quels obstacles ces hubs en Afrique de l'Ouest peuvent-ils surmonter ? Le questionnaire nous aidera à comprendre les perspectives des communautés en Afrique de l'Ouest, ainsi qu'à fournir une description de la manière dont un hub devrait être mis en place. Cette enquête devrait prendre environ cinq (5) minutes à remplir. https://forms.gle/bQUg4bPBExQDjtWG7 Merci.

You can also attend presentations and workshops to learn how to create tools using Wikidata, how to use Wikidata on the other Wikimedia projects, and participate in various discussions with editors, data reusers and members of the Wikidata development team. You can *have a look at the schedule* on this page <https://diff.wikimedia.org/event/wikidata-data-reuse-days-2022/> or on the calendar view <https://diff.wikimedia.org/calendar/month/2022-03/?tribe_tags%5B0%5D=13446>.

The entire initiative, including the presentations and discussions on various channels, is covered by the Code of Conduct for technical spaces <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Code_of_Conduct>. Each session is independent, and while the schedule can look a bit intimidating, we encourage you to *look for the sessions that could be interesting for you*, pick a few of them, and join spontaneously if you have time. To help you navigate the schedule, here are a few suggestions on where to start: - Curious about *who is actually using Wikidata's data*, looking for inspiration?

Note about the calendar features: you can add a single session to your personal calendar, or even embed the full schedule. Please note that we're experimenting with using Diff's calendar feature, that is still in a test and improvements phase - some bugs may appear. If you notice anything strange, let me know so I can report them to the dedicated team at WMF. If you have any questions, or if you would like to propose a last-minute presentation (there is still space left in the lightning talks sessions, or for interactive sessions such as editathons), feel free to contact me. We are very excited to welcome you all in this new experiment of a remote Wikidata event, and to start plenty of interesting discussions between people editing, maintaining and using Wikidata's data!
