WLM session & workshop in one hour at Wikimania
by effe iets anders 16 Aug '19

16 Aug '19

For those of you currently at Wikimania: in one hour we'll have the Wiki Loves Monuments workshop in the Ebadi room (D315 in Sodra Huset). The workshop will consist of a quick introduction, four case studies (Germany, Uganda, Italy and Bangladesh) and small group workshop discussions. It's a great opportunity to learn and to share - no matter how experienced you are at Wiki Loves Monuments. Several members of the international team will be present to answer any questions, or help you find the answer. I hope to see many of you around. Of course you can also find many of us around the conference. Best, Lodewijk (on behalf of the international team)

13 Aug '19

Dear all I would like to ask if anybody is able to move Slovakia's lists to Wikidata. The Phabricator task is here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T173007 Our lists can be found in this category, sorted by regions, districts and municipalities: https://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kateg%C3%B3ria:Zoznamy_kult%C3%BArnych_pamiat… and a list example looks like this: https://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoznam_kult%C3%BArnych_pamiatok_v_obci_Hronsek The lists are located at https://www.pamiatky.sk/sk/page/register-nkp-tabulkove-zoznamy and sorted by the 8 regions. Would anyone be able to help with this migration? Thank you Matej Grochal chair Wikimedians of Slovakia

[WLM announce] WLM conversation today + social media ads
by Mariel Garcia Montes 09 Aug '19

09 Aug '19

Hello, WLM organizers, I am writing with two points to share with you today. 1. I have noticed that many of the grants rely on social media advertisement for contest purposes. We will take these on a case by case basis during grant review, but I wanted to give you a heads up that it is unlikely you will receive funds early enough to pay upfront for advertisement, even if your approval happens early, because 1) Wikimania and 2) paperwork, agreement signatures and then coordination with the Financial office take time. On that note, I also wanted to open the conversation on this point to hear from people who have successfully promoted the contest with or without social media ads. Any words of wisdom/advice? My personal experience with Wiki organizing outside of the WMF: we never paid for ads; partnerships with different communications channels and organizations helped us spread the word much more effectively than if we had had an ads budget. 2. In about an hour, I will be at this Google Hangout to answer any questions or address any concerns you may have about your proposals: Friday August 9th -- 3pm UTC (8am SF, 12pm Sao Paulo, 6pm Nairobi, 11pm Manila) http://meet.google.com/kon-wwtg-jxp If you want to join the conversation but are unable to meet this Friday, please message me privately with times that would work for you on Monday, August 12. I'll send a follow up message to this list if a second hangout is organized Good Friday to you all, _______________________________________________ WLM-Announce mailing list WLM-Announce(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wlm-announce

[WLM announce] WLM Rapid Grants information
by Mariel Garcia Montes 09 Aug '19

09 Aug '19

Hello, WLM organizers, I hope this mail finds you well. My name is Mariel, I am a Junior Program Officer temporarily working on the Rapid Grants Program, and I will be the primary point of contact in the office for the WLM submissions and approvals period. Don't hesitate to email me questions or concerns about your Rapid Grants submissions. We have the following information to share with all of you intending to submit a Rapid Grants application for this contest: - First and foremost, the Rapid Grants program has updated its funding guidelines. You can find the new ones here <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Rapid/Learn>. Please read through them before and as you write your application. You'll see that we are no longer funding certain items like T-shirts, human resources expenses, or long-distance travel. - If you are a returning grantee, please ensure you are up to date in your reporting requirements from previous grants. We will not review WLM applications of grantees pending completion on past initiatives. If your group has an APG, you are not eligible for Rapid Grants support for WLM. - We will take close looks at the incentives offered by each contest. *DO NOT announce WLM prizes before you receive a grant approval*, as we are likely to adjust the prizes you suggest originally depending on demand. - If you need a venue, please try to find a free venue in your community. This will cut down on cost and will help you long-term in your partnership building. - Don't rely on social media advertising for the contest; we encourage you to think of partnerships with photo clubs and local institutions to reach relevant potential participants. - For WLM purposes, please do not rely on the WMF Merchandise Store for prizes. We had some complications with this for WLE; your Rapid Grant budget should cover any monetary support you need from WMF for your contest. - People who have their grant requests approved will be asked to send in paperwork. You can anticipate this by reading through the relevant sections for you on this page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Processing/Rapid>. - Bonus: Here is an example of a WLM report that we thought was fantastic, in case you're in need of some inspiration. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Rapid/Nirmal_Dulal/Wiki_Love… *WLM CONVERSATION HOURS* If you have questions or WLM things you want to discuss over a call, I will be holding the following WLM Conversation hours on Google Hangout: Friday August 9th -- 3pm UTC (8am SF, 12pm Sao Paulo, 6pm Nairobi, 11pm Manila) http://meet.google.com/kon-wwtg-jxp If you want to join the conversation but are unable to meet this Friday, please message me privately with times that would work for you on Monday, August 12. I'll send a follow up message to this list if a second hangout is organized. Wishing you all a successful WLM, -- Mariel García-Montes Junior Program Officer, Rapid Grants Community Resources Pronouns: she/her/hers Wikimedia Foundation User: MMontes (WMF) _______________________________________________ WLM-Announce mailing list WLM-Announce(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wlm-announce
