Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Announcing the Hardware donation program
To: Wikimedia Mailing List <wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Dear Wikimedians,
The Wikimedia Foundation is pleased to announce a small new program called
the Hardware Donation Program. In a word, it is a program designed to
donate depreciated (but fully working) hardware from the WMF office to
community members who would put it to good use.
The program, including instructions on how to apply, is described on Meta,
here:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Hardware_donation_program
Please read the information carefully. I especially encourage you to pay
attention to the program's design considerations, which determine most of
the decisions we'll be making.
We currently have approximately 20 laptops ready to be donated.
Applications are welcome.
The upcoming Wikimedia Conference in Berlin (in about two weeks) would be
an excellent opportunity to deliver some of those laptops in person to
approved applications, so if you think you might be interested, I'd
encourage you to apply as soon as possible.
Please also help spread the word about this program, by forwarding this
e-mail to other Wikimedia lists you're on, and posting the link to the
program page on village pumps and *community* (not public) social media
channels or other communication forms you use.
Special thanks to User:Anntinomy from Wikimedia Ukraine, who had the idea
of asking about possible donation of older machines from WMF, and inspired
this program.
Mini-FAQ:
Q: Why are you doing this?
A: WMF's Office IT determines a lifetime for work machines, and regularly
replaces older machines. This creates a stock of older, working machines,
that are available for donation. We can donate them locally to San
Francisco charities, but figure that if we can find low-cost ways to
deliver them to our own community members, that's so much better.
Q: Am I eligible?
A: Read the fine program documentation.
Q: If I'm eligible, am I guaranteed a donated laptop?
A: no.
Q: Once these 20 laptops are donated, will there be others?
A: yes, eventually.
Q: How can you ensure people would use the machines for Wikimedia purposes?
A: We can't. We'll be making a good-effort assessment of the likelihood of
Wikimedia use, and make a decision to donate (or not) the equipment. Once
donated, the equipment no longer belongs to WMF. We encourage, but can't
enforce, reporting on impact achieved using the equipment.
Q: I need a few laptops for my event in two weeks! Can I get them through
this program?
A: No. Read the fine program documentation.
Q: I'm really happy about this!
A: So are we! :)
Q: I'm really angry about this!
A: So it goes.
Q: I have more questions!
A: Hit 'Reply'. :)
Cheers,
Asaf

Good evening Wiki friends,
It would be a great oppurtunity to organize 'World Mime Day Edit-a-thon
2017' in Kolkata.
If possible, it would be even better to get collabrated with
Indian Mime Theatre

Hello everyone!
I’m writing you in behalf of Wikimedia Serbia, regarding to organizing the
second World Mime Day edit-a-thon.
Last year Wikimedia Serbia collaborated with World Mime Organization
<http://www.worldmime.org/>, whose president is Marko Stojanovic
<https://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9C%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BA%
D0%BE_%D0%A1%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%98%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%
B8%D1%9B_(%D0%B3%D0%BB%D1%83%D0%BC%D0%B0%D1%86)>,
famous actor in Serbia, mime artist and acting professor. Along with this
organization and Singidunum University
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singidunum_University> we successfully
realized this event
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/World_Mime_Day_Wiki_edit-
a-thon#Local_organizers>.
The edit-a-thon aims to have international character. In 2016 Wikimedians
and Wikipedians from Macedonia and Armenia joined us in celebrating this
day by writing about notable mime artist, theaters and mime plays.
The support for this event came from the United nations as well: Ms. Irena
Vojackova-Sollorano, UN Resident Coordinator and UNDP Resident
Representative for the Republic of Serbia, visited the edit-a-thon
<http://blog.wikimedia.rs/?p=2231> and praised the volunteers mission.
This year we are planing to do the same and we are inviting everyone who is
interested in this topic and who thinks that GLAM cooperation could be
achieved. World Mime Organization has a network of mime artists and
theaters worldwide, so you can use Marko as a contact to reach local
theaters and artist.
The Meta page is created, and you can sign and join the project
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/World_Mime_Day_Wiki_edit-
a-thon_2017#Local_organizers>.
There is also an event page on Serbian Wikipedia
<https://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%92%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%B8%
D0%BF%D0%B5%D0%B4%D0%B8%D1%98%D0%B0:%D0%A3%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%

সুধী,
(ক্রস-পোস্টিং-এর জন্য দুঃখ প্রকাশ করছি)
শুভেচ্ছা নেবেন। গত ১৬ বছরে উইকিমিডিয়া আন্দোলন ছোট একটি স্বেচ্ছাসেবী দল থেকে ধীরে ধীরে বড় ও বৈচিত্রময় একটি সম্প্রদায়ে পরিণত হয়েছে যা এখন অবদানকারী, ডেভেলপার, স্থানীয় শাখা, পাঠক, দাতা ও আরও অন্যান্য সহযোগীদের নিয়ে সংঘবদ্ধভাবে পরিচালিত হচ্ছে। আগামী ১৫ বছরে আমরা নিজেদেরকে কোথায় দেখতে চাই? এটি মানবতার কল্যাণে ভবিষ্যতে কি করতে পারে? মোটের উপর, ২০৩০ সালে আমরা আমাদেরকে কোথায় দেখতে চাই? আমাদের কি কি প্রয়োজন বা কোন কাজগুলো করা প্রয়োজন; এগুলো নিয়ে কয়েকদিনের মধ্যেই সারা পৃথিবীর সব উইকিমিডিয়া সম্প্রদায়গুলো তাদের নিজেদের সুবিধামত তাদের নিজেদের ভাষায় আলোচনা করবে। এ সব আলোচনার কেন্দ্রীয় স্থান হবে মেটা উইকি<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2017>।
আমাদের বাংলা সম্প্রদায় থেকেও এই আলোচনায় অংশ নেব নিজেদের সুবিধাজনক স্থানে (বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ার আলোচনাসভা, উইকিসংকেলনের আলোচনাসভা বা ফেইসবুক চ্যাট গ্রুপ অথবা হ্যাং আউটের মাধ্যমে)। আমার কাজ হলো, ছোট ও ক্রমবর্ধমাণ সম্প্রদায় হিসেবে আমাদের কথাগুলোও যাতে ফাউন্ডেশনের সেই ভবিষ্যৎ পরিকল্পনায় স্থান করে নেয় সেটি নিশ্চিত করা।
এ ব্যাপারে বিস্তারিত সামনের দিনগুলোতে জানানো হবে (খুব সম্ভবত মঙ্গলবার থেকে মূল আলোচনা শুরু হবে)। তবে, এখন কেউ ইচ্ছে করলে বাংলা পাঠকদের জন্য এই মেটা পাতাসহ<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2017> অন্যান্য উপপাতাগুলো অনুবাদে সাহায্য করতে পারেন। আপনাদের এই প্রক্রিয়া সম্পর্কে বা অন্য যেকোন প্রকার সাহায্যে আমাকে প্রশ্ন করতে পারেন ইমেইলের মাধ্যমে অথবা আমার উইকিপিডিয়ার আলাপ পাতায়।
ধন্যবাদ।

অভিনন্দন। আশা করি পশ্চিম বাংলার উইকি আন্দোলন এগিয়ে নিয়ে যেতে এটি আরও সহায়ক
হবে এবং বাংলার ওপার থেকে বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ায় আমরা আরও বেশি অবদানকারী দেখতে
পাবো।
