Hello Everyone,
Good day!
When we had our first official out of town outreach project in Naga City,
about 300 km south of Manila, we encountered a problem when 50+ students,
librarians and professors attempt to create an account with the Bikol
Wikipedia. Apparently it only allows 6 applications per IP in 24 hours.
Is there a creative way to have not experience the same issue in our future
outreach projects? Say one school has one public IP address but many
attempt to register?
Another, we would like to ask if we can have a possibility to have an
client software that can perform to do sandbox editing for those who wants
to learn to edit Wikipedia but offline?
There will be places we would visit that has computers with no stable
internet connection but willing to contribute to Wikipedia. Say edit and
export it as xml and then upload that article in Wikipedia in bulk?
Your inputs are valuable to us.
