To: &lt;african-wikimedians(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; Hello all, Sorry for cross posting, I hope you find this information useful! ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Felix Nartey &lt;fnartey(a)wikimedia.org&gt; Date: Sat, Nov 7, 2020 at 9:01 AM Subject: 1Lib1Ref in January 2021! To: &lt;wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt;rg>, &lt;libraries-l(a)wikimedia.org&gt;rg>, Wikimedia & Libraries &lt;libraries(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt;rg>, #1Lib1Ref general list &lt;1lib1ref(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; Hello Librarians and library lovers, again to continue providing reliable and factual information to the world through Wikipedia. You can participate in #1Lib1Ref by simply adding a citation to Wikipedia's content to improve the quality and reliability for the millions of users of the platform! Since we are celebrating the “human” part of the Wikimedia movement for Wikipedia 20: we are focused this year on how every single human (librarian or archivist, reference professional, and scholar) can add one more reference to Wikipedia. This year has highlighted how important Wikipedia’s citations are for access to reliable and unbiased information. The #1lib1ref campaign is a great way to strengthen Wikimedia community relationships with the library, information and research professionals who create that knowledge and share it with the world. How can you engage? We invite you to engage in three ways: - Make an edit - Participate globally and virtually by adding citations to Wikipedia.[1] - Organise - Lead a community activity or event in your library, country or region.[2] - Amplify - Share and just keep sharing the campaign within your networks and help us reach out to library and research communities around the world.[3] In light of the pandemic, we strongly encourage virtual activities and advise everyone to follow the WHO health guidelines.[4] If restrictions have been lifted in your country and are considering organising in-person events, kindly follow the Wikimedia COVID risk assessment for events.[5] Ensure all your contributions are recorded by using the #1Lib1Ref hashtag in your edit summary. This is very important for us to monitor the reach and success of the initiative. Please tell your library, researcher and knowledge-loving friends about #1Lib1Ref in January. We need everyone's help to make Wikipedia more reliable! You can join the 1Lib1Ref community via the Libraries ( libraries(a)lists.wikimedia.org), and 1Lib1Ref (1lib1ref(a)lists.wikimedia.org) mailing lists, or by joining the Wikimedia + Libraries User Group.[6] <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_and_Libraries_User_Group> Cheers, Felix Nartey [1] - https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref/Resources#I_… [2] - https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref/Resources#I_… [3] - https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref/Share [4] - https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019 [5] - https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Risk_assessment_during_COVID-19 [6] - https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_and_Libraries_User_Group -- Felix Nartey Community and Partnerships Coordinator, Campaigns *Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Home>* *fnartey(a)wikimedia.org &lt;fnartey(a)wikimedia.org&gt;* -- Felix Nartey Community and Partnerships Coordinator, Campaigns *Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Home>* *fnartey(a)wikimedia.org &lt;fnartey(a)wikimedia.org&gt;* _______________________________________________ African-Wikimedians mailing list African-Wikimedians(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/african-wikimedians
