I am writing to request comment from Wikimedia users who can provide
guidance on what projects and their components would benefit from receiving
a video tutorial. Video tutorials are being developed by Jackson Peebles (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jackson_Peebles) and will be available
in their first phase on any English project, including, but not limited to,
Mediawiki, Wikimedia Commons, Wikipedia, Metawiki, and Wiktionary. The
software being used for development also enables translation by
multilingual users.
The project is being overseen at English Wikipedia, the home wiki of
Jackson Peebles, but is meant to be a cross-wiki project. To see examples
of what projects have been proposed for tutorials thus far and to make
comments of your own, please visit
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Video_and_Interactive_Tutorials
and
post there. You may also visit
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Video_and_Interactive_Tutorials or
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Jackson_Peebles/Video_and_Interactiv…
for
more information on the grant. This project is entirely community-driven,
and the editor leading the project is not receiving any funding for his
time. There are no restrictions to who can submit recommendations, and
comments on other proposals are welcome.
Thank you very much for your time, and I look forward to your input.
