So David M. Hoffman of Internews came to give a talk at my school. I used
my I'm a Wikipedian line (as usual) to go talk to him.
His Wikipedia article needs work! Anyone who hasn't edited in a while is
welcome to join.
I need 3 active members who have knowledge of digital tech and willing to
engage in some PR/communications role to email directly and register their
interest.
He has turned in his photo and some other material we can use.
His article is here <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_M._Hoffman>.

Here is a post for some very simple tips to formatting when
editing.<http://planningwikimediaghana.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/training-do-this-exerc…>
After reading/watching the post, try and practice in your sandbox. That
will get rid of any fear you have and give you that first feel of editing
something.
Comments and feedback welcome.

APPLICATION
Academic Requirements:
Early-Stage Researchers must be in the first 4 years of their research
careers and not yet have a doctoral degree. This is measured from the
date when they obtained the degree which would formally entitle them
to embark on a doctorate, irrespective of whether or not a doctorate
is envisaged.
Experienced Researchers must be in possession of a doctoral degree or
have at least 4 years of full-time equivalent research experience. At
the time of recruitment by the host organisation an experienced
researcher must also have less than 5 years of full-time equivalent
research experience.
It should be noted that an individual researcher may not be recruited
first as an ESR and subsequently as an ER in the same project.
Marie Curie ITN mobility requirement:
Researchers can be of any nationality. They are required to undertake
trans-national mobility (i.e. move from one country to another) when
taking up their appointment. One general rule applies to the
appointment of researchers:
At the time of recruitment by the host organisation, researchers must
not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies,
etc) in the country of their host organisation for more than 12 months
in the 3 years immediately prior to the reference date.
Short stays such as holidays and/or compulsory national service are
not taken into account.
Application process:
Please note that applications from any qualified applicants,
regardless of gender, ethnicity or country of origin are welcome if
they meet the eligibility requirements.
Applicants should send their applications directly to the institution
hosting the desired fellowship. Applications for more than one post
are welcome – however, multiple applications should be indicated via
the obligatory DiXiT application form (which has to be submitted
separately from the application documents send to the hosting
institution).
Application deadline:
The deadline for applications is the 10th December 2013.
Please note that the four remaining ER fellowships will start at a
later date and the possibility of application will be announced
accordingly.
