Great Wilfredo !
Let me get back in touch with you by email in the next few days.
In the meanwhile, could you please drop your username here :
Dear Florence,
I'm fr-4, en-3, pt-4 and es-N. Also I also have experience translating
and programming (in the past I helped with the development of an
installer for kiwix but now I am focused on activism for Venezuela and
Cuba). I would be very happy to be able to collaborate with this
project, please send me the tasks that are necessary to start working
on this project.
Thanks

Hello Offline fans,
In 2021, I plan to get a Spanish version of WikiFundi created with
the help of Antonio (u:Tonygarfume)and Kiwix.
Reminder : WikiFundi (1) is a software that provides off-line
editing environment that mimics the Wikipedia environment.
WikiFundi allows for training and contribution when technology,
access and electricity outages fail or are not available at all.
It enables individuals, groups and communities to learn how to
edit Wikipedia, and to work on articles collaboratively. It
requires a local server (such as a raspberry PI)which will provide
a local wifi network to which editors may contact. Once completed
and connected to the internet, the articles produced can be
uploaded to Wikipedia.
WikiFundi is primarily disseminated at the moment through the
Kiwix environnement. It is for example used during the
WikiChallenge Ecoles d'Afrique, a writing contest that run in
(mostly rural) schools of 8 francophone countries (2)
I am currently looking for interested people to provide any help
they think relevant, with the amount of time and energy they can
afford. Any little help welcome.
If you are interested, please answer me, publicly or privately,
and drop your username signature on the project page (3) so that I
can contact you.
Help could be
a) help to develop the content pages of WikiFundi (I am in
particular looking for people super knowledgeable with the our
pillars, NPOV and such, to list and summarize those pages)
b) provide additional educational resources to be put on
WikiFundi. Currently all the resources are either in English or
French. Looking for fresh relevant resources in Spanish to be added
c) beta testing, fixing links, language, typoes, page review with
good eyes
d) translate the userguide in Spanish !
e) when the software is ready, helping to relay the info, to
communicate about it (such as writing a blogpost in Spanish about
it, or hosting a post, or hosting a webinar to talk about the
software etc.)
f) and using the software in disconnected areas, providing
feedback and telling the story
g) more ?
Please no one be shy.
Florence
