by Tanvir Rahman 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

সুধী, বেশ কিছুদিন আলোচনার পর গতকাল, ২৬ মার্চ বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ার নতুন প্রধান পাতা চালু হয়েছে। বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ার আগের প্রধান পাতাটি অনাকর্ষণীয় -- এমন মত বেশ আগে থেকেই আমরা পেয়ে আসছিলাম। পরবর্তীতে বেশ কিছুদিন আগে বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ায় নতুন প্রধান পাতার ডিজাইন শুরু হয়। জমা পড়া মোট তিনটি ডিজাইন থেকে একটি বেছে নিয়ে এবং অনেক যোজন-বিয়োজনের পর এই নতুন পাতাটি নির্বাচিত করা হয়। নতুন এই প্রধান পাতায় এবার নির্বাচিত নিবন্ধের সাথে ভালো নিবন্ধগুলোও যোগ করা হয়েছে। সেই সাথে আপনি জানেন কি, ভালো নিবন্ধ, ও নির্বাচিত নিবন্ধে র্যান্ডম সুইচিং চালু করা হয়েছে তাই আপনারা প্রতিবার পার্জ (পাতার সর্বডানে ওপরে হালনাগাদ লিংকটি দেখুন) করলে নতুন নিবন্ধ/তথ্য আসবে। আপনাদের সবার অংশগ্রহণে বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়া এগিয়ে যাক, এই শুভকামনা। তানভির

Advance on a start-up grant for Wikimedia Bangladesh
by Asaf Bartov 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

Dear colleagues in Bangladesh, (I apologize for not being able to write this in Bangla. I encourage you to translate this into Bangla if necessary!) I work for the Wikimedia Foundation, and one of my roles is to run the Wikimedia Grants program. Like other new chapters, Wikimedia Bangladesh is encouraged to apply for a "start-up" grant to help fund some activities for the first year or two of its existence. Instructions for submitting a grant are available here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Index [1] However, some Wikimedia money is already in Bangladesh and is *available for your use* -- it was granted to Messrs. Nasir Khan and Tanvir Rahman to support their attendance at the WikiConference India event late last year. For technical reasons, there is an amount of money left over from those two travel grants, and instead of asking Nasir and Tanvir to wire the money back to the Foundation (wasting some of our donor funds on commissions and banking fees), we have decided to award the remaining funds to Wikimedia Bangladesh, as an _advance_ on its first start-up grant (which Wikimedia Bangladesh is yet to request). The money itself is with Nasir and Tanvir, and as soon as Wikimedia Bangladesh has its own bank account, they will deposit the remaining funds there. The total amount was *67221.5* BDT, of which 17698.5 are with Nasir and 49,523 are with Tanvir. The funds are available for any mission-aligned[2] use Wikimedia Bangladesh would like to put it to, and it is up to Wikimedia Bangladesh's board (executive committee) and members to plan and approve the specific uses. We do require a *public* report about how that money ends up getting used. We recommend starting a page on the Meta-wiki as a sub-page of Wikimedia Bangladesh's page[3], and tracking the use of the money there. Eventually, when WMBD submits a start-up grant request, we can roll this report into that start-up grant's eventual report. So far, Tanvir tells me he has spent 5,500 BDT toward the Chittagong Unconference, so please record that (including _what_, exactly, those 5500 BDT paid for) expense on this public page. I look forward to seeing more activity (the Chittagong Unconference sounds like a success!) from Wikimedia Bangladesh, and would love to help in any way I can. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions, about the Wikimedia Grants program or otherwise. Cheers, Asaf Bartov, WMF Grants Team [1] Incidentally, you are welcome to help make that page more accessible to fellow Bangla speakers by clicking the "Translate this page" link near the top of that page, and translating the instructions into Bangla.

Re: [Wikimedia-BD] Bangla Wikipedia Unconference 2012 in Chittagong
by Tanvir Rahman 14 Mar '12

14 Mar '12

Hello everyone, I am so pleased to announce that Wikimedia Bangladesh, with the help of Independent University, Bangladesh, Chittagong, and Bangladesh Open Source Network, organized the first Bangla Wikipedia Unconference 2012 [1] in Chittagong [2] to promote Bangla Wikipedia [3] in Bangladesh. This outreach event was held in 2 and 3 of March and was attended by around 300 participants. It was first big-level program of Wikimedia Bangladesh and it was outside of the Dhaka (the capital) to focus on country-wide outreach. We called it an "unconference" to give it a less formal look and to make the appearance more welcoming. This two days event was inaugurated by the Chittagong City Mayor and and in the last it was attended by the Since and Technology minister of Bangladesh Government. It was also attended by some other popular public figures, writers, and university professors, and media personalties. During the unconference we had events like workshops, photo exhibition, cultural program, seminars, article writing contest, etc. We had several teams from the schools, colleges, and universities in Chittagong as team participants. The unconference was hosted by Chittagong campus of Independent University, Bangladesh. You can see the some of the images of the events in the Commons category [4]. Because of the presence of the popular public figures and government officials, the event got a significant amount of media coverage in national print and electronic media. We also even had billboards in the city's main crossings to let people know about Bangla Wikipedia which was the main purpose of this event and current strategic priority of Wikimedia Bangladesh. Wikimedia Bangladesh wants to thank everyone who supported us. We want to thank our sponsors and donors who helped us to arrange this big event. We want thank Wikimedia Foundation director Sue Gardner for her nice video speech that we screened in the inaugural ceremony. And of course to our participants, who eventually made this effort a success. And I apologize to let you guys know about this event in late. We are still working on putting everything on wiki.

Wiki Loves Monuments in Bangladesh?
by Lodewijk 07 Mar '12

07 Mar '12

Hi all, For those that do not know me: I'm Lodewijk from the Netherlands, and I'm (amongst other things) one of the people coordinating the Wiki Loves Monuments initiatives on an international level. I have been involved in the 2010 contest in the Netherlands and the 2011 in Europe. Wiki Loves Monuments is a photo contest organized around cultural heritage (buildings and other similar physical objects such as bridges etc that are of cultural/historical relevance). It was organized last year in 18 countries in Europe, and this year we're seeing which countries outside Europe might be interested too. It was suggested to us that the Bangladesh community might be willing and able to join Wiki Loves Monuments this year. How would you feel about this? You can find more information about what Wiki Loves Monuments is all about on http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2012/Documen… and the suggested Timeline gives you perhaps an impression of the work that would be involved with this http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2012/Timeline . You should however realize that Wiki Loves Monuments is organized federatively, and that the national contests have a large degree of independence. You would be organizing your own contest (with support and help from the international team, for example on technical side) and you should do, within a framework, do whatever works best in your country. Would you perhaps be interested? If you have any questions, please let me know. Kind regards, Lodewijk

Looking for photographers in Bangladesh
by Russavia 18 Feb '12

18 Feb '12

Hi all Russavia from English Wikipedia and Commons here I am currently looking for some photographers in several countries who might be able to assist me with taking photos from Bangladesh which I am requiring for some articles I am working on. I need photos from Chittagong and Dhaka. Details of what I require can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Russavia/Required_photos#.C2.A0Bangladesh If anyone is able to help me, or if anyone knows of photographers who can help, feel free to contact me on this email (and to pass my email on), or i can be contacted at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Russavia In the event someone is able to help, and the photo subjects are obscured, I may be able to organise with the local diplomatic mission for inside access to take photos and the like, so this is an option if anyone is willing. Any help appreciated. Cheers Scotty (Russavia)
