Hello everyone,
A few weeks ago, we announced the course on the learning platform,
WikiLearn, on how to upload and edit files on Wikimedia Commons using
OpenRefine: *OpenRefine for Wikimedia Commons: the basics*
<https://learn.wiki/courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2023/about>
.
Today, we are happy to announce two translations of the course: Spanish and
French!
- OpenRefine para Wikimedia Commons: conceptos básicos
<https://app.learn.wiki/learning/course/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2024_es/home>
(Spanish
/ Español)
- OpenRefine pour Wikimedia Commons : les bases
<https://app.learn.wiki/learning/course/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2024_fr/home>
(French,
Français)
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_content_in_WikiLearn.webm>).
More translations, such as Italian, Portuguese, and Basque, are being
worked on.
Just like the English course, the Spanish and French versions 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.
Thanks, Carla Toro and Reda Kherbouche, for their amazing work translating
these courses!
Best,
Giovanna
