Hello Wikipedians, Wikipedia Academy Kosovo is an upcoming event in Kosovo and we are seeking some Wikipedians from Europe to fly-in to mentor and speak. The event will encourage the creation of high-quality content - both photos and articles - on Wikipedia English by students and others in Kosovo. The Academy will be a 3-day event organized in Prishtina, Kosovo on 22-24 February. About 100 participants will be recruited from high schools and universities around Kosovo. They will be encouraged to form teams from their schools with a faculty mentor to sponsor them. To help prepare for the Academy, the organizers will conduct presentations introducing students to the wiki editing process, research and appropriate content creation. Participants will hear from local, regional and international speakers to improve their understanding and purpose of Wikipedia and the process of creating high quality articles. On day two, the participants will organize into teams to generate new content that will be edited and posted during the event. On day three participants will post their content to Wikipedia and Wikivoyage. Best articles and photos will be awarded prizes. If anyone is interested, please email me to arianit(a)gmail.com <mailto:arianit@gmail.com> with your Wikipedia user ID, one or more topics you could speak on, a few short paragraphs stating your motivation and qualification for this event. We will cover your travel to and expenses while in Prishtina. I look forward to hearing from you, Arianit Dobroshi Ipko Foundation FLOSS Kosova _______________________________________________ Education mailing list Education(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/education
