Hello everyone, A few weeks ago, we announced the WikiLearn course on how to upload and edit files on Wikimedia Commons using OpenRefine. - In English: OpenRefine for Wikimedia Commons: the basics <https://learn.wiki/courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2023/…> - In Spanish / Español*: OpenRefine para Wikimedia Commons: conceptos básicos <https://learn.wiki/courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2024_…> - In French / Français*: OpenRefine pour Wikimedia Commons : les bases <https://learn.wiki/courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2024_…> We are now happy to announce the translation for Italian! - In Italian / Italiano: Introduzione all'uso di OpenRefine per Wikimedia Commons <https://learn.wiki/courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2024_…> This course can be easily translated into other languages (more about the translation process here <https://studio.learn.wiki/meta_translations/discover_courses/> and here <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Tutorial_on_how_to_translate_course…>). More translations are on the way, including Portuguese, which will be launched soon. All the versions of this course are available at any time for free. You only need a Wikimedia account and the course can be followed at your own pace, with computer-graded exercises. A certificate is awarded at the end and an average of 6 to 8 hours is needed to complete the course. Please, feel free to share these translations with people who speak these languages and who you think might be interested in learning more about OpenRefine or Wikimedia Commons. Thank you so much, Marta Erica Arosio, for your amazing work translating this course into Italian! 👏👏👏 Best, Giovanna * These two courses/languages had problems before and are now fixed and fully available.
