Advice on organizing a dashboard for multiple events
by Jenemann, Laura 15 Aug '17

15 Aug '17

Hi Wikimedians, I’m creating a dashboard for an ongoing event and am wondering what the best way is to organize this. The ongoing event would be Wikipedia editing hosted by Boston University Libraries every few months or so. Would it be easiest for me to have the Libraries as the campaign, and each event have a dashboard? Or, just have an open-ended dashboard? I’m researching this but if anyone has experience or examples to share, they’d be appreciated. Thanks everyone. Regards, Laura Xplorecre84give -- Laura Jenemann Communication, Media, & Film Librarian Boston University 617-353-9240 ljeneman(a)bu.edu<mailto:ljeneman@bu.edu>

Dashboard v hashtags

Dear Boston Wikipedians, I’m considering creating a dashboard for our next BULibraries wikipedia event. Are there any advantages to using this instead of adding event hashtags to posts/edits? We are still in mostly novice editing stage, though I recall the dashboard being easy to use. Best wishes, Laura Laura Jenemann Communication, Media, and Film Librarian Boston University

Dear Bostonians, In lieu of a US Wikiconf (which is happening as a pair of preconf days in Montreal next week!) There is a regional gathering in San Diego, October 6-9. Information below: it should be a relaxing and energetic time, hosted by the local wikimedian group. Warmly, SJ ==================== Hello from sunny San Diego - we'd love to have you come visit! I won't be able to join the call tonight but wanted to make sure we got this invite out to you for our October 6-9 WikiConSoCal. Could you forward this message to anyone in your circles who might be interested? WikiConSoCal - Allie's Adventures in WikiWonderland <https://www.meetup.com/wikiSoCal/events/235033958/> This year we have an unconventional convening in the Balboa Park museum district of San Diego, and including opportunities to attend and participate in our big San Diego Maker Faire <http://sandiego.makerfaire.org>. We are actively looking for members of the wiki communities to join us, especially wiki community organizers like you! We'll be hosting Mad Hatter Tea Party Wiknics with family-friendly exploration activities throughout the park, all weekend long. Lots of great opportunities to connect with your fellow wiki peeps, and help us outreach to our very diverse communities. No previous wiki experience necessary, but lots of wiki opportunities ready for newcomers to try. We're now working even more closely with the American Foundation for the Blind (AFB.org) with plans for including members of our blind communities as volunteers within our events! We're also outreaching into our Latino and other marginalized communities. Striving for radical inclusivity in our volunteer groups. Speak any language besides English?
