Dear friends and colleagues

Please permit me to publicise an academic conference that we're holding at Hong Kong Baptist University on 15-17 December 2021.

The conference will be an ideal forum in which to discuss research methodologies, issues of collaborativity, theoretical frameworks that have proven valuable for the study of Wikipedia translation, the use of Wikipedia in the translation classroom and by translation professionals, and the nature of Wikipedia translation and how it differs not only from other more traditional types of translation but also from other newly emerging types. While the conference's main focus is interlingual translation within the online encyclopaedia, we are also interested in research into the multilingual Wikipedia that makes no explicit reference to translation issues.

The conference will be online, face-to-face or mixed mode, depending on prevailing circumstances. Please see the conference website at https://ctn.hkbu.edu.hk/wikiconf2021/ [https://ctn.hkbu.edu.hk/wikiconf2021/] for full details and the Call for Papers.

I hope to see some of you there!

Dear Hillun

Thanks for your interest. When we set the conference up we were hoping that it'd be face to face, but that's looking unlikely now. I think we'll take the decision shortly, but I think some kind of on-line attendance is certainly going to be on the cards. We'll work out the fees at the same time I guess.

If you like I can keep you updated?

Best regards

While I understand that this could be a concern if it was a large fee, it works out to about $13 USD/11 Euros for observer status, and double that for presenter status. This does not sound outrageous; it pays for the equipment, software, staffing, technical support, and bandwidth, as well as the maintenance and storage of presentation materials. Even online conferences have some costs, and those costs are often not being absorbed by sponsors to the extent that they have been in the past.

It may be worthwhile for the WMF to agree to take a certain number of slots and pay for them, and then allot them to people with a significant history of translation on our projects on a first come/first served basis; honestly, they could support the registration fees for 25 editors for less than 500 USD. That's a bargain, especially if they want to shift the focus to translation into smaller projects.

I hope that the conference goes well.

Thank you everyone for your comments. Just to confirm, we have reduced the registration fees very significantly since taking the decision to go online, and they are now as stated by Anne below. We hope that the new fee level will permit anyone to attend who would be interested to, although if need be I can also take Rajeeb's suggestion to the organising committee and see if it might be possible to provide some financial help where necessary. Anne, many thanks for your sponsorship suggestion, and if something like that were possible it would be really excellent.

I totally agree with Rajeeb too. A Wikimedian who is otherwise volunteering and would like to share their findings/observations with others over an online event would already be extending their volunteer hours just for applying and preparing for a conference. Asking them to pay is not fair whatever the reason is, and especially when many developing countries are grappling with huge health and economic disasters (not to mention the environmental disaster that recently hit the eastern coast of India or what Indonesia and the Philippines face on a regular basis). This is precisely the reason some volunteers are disbursed for their internet expenses when they participate in a discussion series in some of the events. I know it might not be easy for an edu institution that might already be struggling with funding to organize an event, but this event is focused on the Wikimedia movement and is special for many. Exclusion for financial reasons should be seriously thought about.

Hi Mark,

If you are willing to consider postponing the event just a bit, to January, you can also apply for the upcoming Conference Grants round. The deadline for submission will be in early September.

I'm happy to help and answer any questions.

Dear friends and colleagues

Please permit me to publicise an academic conference that we're holding at Hong Kong Baptist University on 15-17 December 2021.

The conference will be an ideal forum in which to discuss research methodologies, issues of collaborativity, theoretical frameworks that have proven valuable for the study of Wikipedia translation, the use of Wikipedia in the translation classroom and by translation professionals, and the nature of Wikipedia translation and how it differs not only from other more traditional types of translation but also from other newly emerging types. While the conference's main focus is interlingual translation within the online encyclopaedia, we are also interested in research into the multilingual Wikipedia that makes no explicit reference to translation issues.

The conference will be online, face-to-face or mixed mode, depending on prevailing circumstances. Please see the conference website at https://ctn.hkbu.edu.hk/wikiconf2021/ for full details and the Call for Papers.

I hope to see some of you there!

Dear Friends and Colleagues

Many thanks for your messages and apologies for the slow response.

I've discussed the situation with my colleagues and everyone agrees that we could certainly consider waiving the fee in the right circumstances, and we've updated the conference website (https://ctn.hkbu.edu.hk/wikiconf2021/) to reflect this. I haven't yet made a rapid grant request but I'll certainly follow that up, and I'm also wondering if that suggestion that Anne made earlier was still possibly on the table? Unfortunately it would be difficult to reschedule the conference at this stage to allow an application via the Conference Grants round though.

Anyone with an interest in translation on Wikipedia would be very welcome to submit a paper proposal. The Call for Papers assumes that paper proposals will be research-based but I think it would be really excellent to have contributions from practitioners as well, and if we have enough we could for example dedicate a session to them. I also think the opportunity that the conference could potentially give for stimulating exchanges between practitioners and researchers would be very exciting.

Best regards

Mark
