Project Tiger: Offline Edit-a-thon
by Tito Dutta 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

ਸਤ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਅਕਾਲ Punjabi Wikimedians, The Project Tiger Writing Contest has started with great responses. A few communities such as Tamil, Malayalam, and Punjabi are participating enthusiastically. We feel that real-life edit-a-thons might be a good way to encourage your community members. If you are planning to have an offline edit-a-thon o Project Tiger both financially and more important programmatically. Note: Our budget for each offline event in India is ~8,000 INR. It would be great if you could host an offline edit-a-thon for your community. Please contact tito(a)cis-india.org for questions. Thanks Tito Dutta Note: If I don't reply to your email in 2 days, please feel free to remind me over email or phone call.[image: beacon]

Focus Project Area (FPA) APG 2018-19: Way Forward

ਸਤ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਅਕਾਲ Punjabi Wikimedians I would like to inform you that CIS-A2K is in process of writing 2018-2019 work-plan, and during the process we intend to start working with new projects and language communities. CIS-A2K team has earlier tried to collaborate with Indic communities on other than Focused Language Area (FLA) in form of needs-based support, skill building activities and outreach support. Based on consistent feedback we have received from Indic WIkimedians and as an effort to meaningfully increase our collaboration with the emerging projects/ideas across Indic Wikimedia communities, CIS-A2K is introducing Focus Project Areas (FPA) for the upcoming APG Plan 2018-19. A2K team would like to engage with communities, individuals and Wikimedia project related enthusiasts on a specific project/outcome basis (such as Wikisource, Institutional Partnership, etc) for particular language communities. The projects and ideas will have to align with the strategic vision of the Wikimedia Movement 2030[1] as well as the A2K team's vision plan. We invite community representatives, user groups, individuals who are willing to join hands with A2K team to write to tanveer(a)cis-india.org and tito(a)cis-india.org for further discussions.
