Dear Mr., I thank you for your answer. As for your first opinion concerning accepting presentations in French and English in WikiIndaba, this decision has been made in the online meeting of Wikimedia TN User Group concerning WikiIndaba. The Logistics Team and Mr. Habib will try to find how to provide translators for sessions probably with the special collaboration of Institut Français de Tunisie. Concerning your other opinions, you are right. Feel free to directly do the needed adjustments accordingly to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiIndaba_conference_2018/Submissions and to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:WikiIndaba_conference_2018/Submissi.... I will review the adjustments and open the call for submissions tomorrow morning. Yours Sincerely, Houcemeddine Turki ________________________________ De : Felix Nartey flixtey@gmail.com Envoyé : vendredi 15 décembre 2017 11:34:59 À : abdelwaheb turki Cc : wikimedia-tn@lists.wikimedia.org; Felix Nartey; isla@wikiloveswomen.org Objet : Re: Permission for opening the Call for Submissions
Hello Turki,
I have just finished reading the submission page, my first question is, since we are having a multilingual conference will there be translations on both ends of presentations (translation for both English and French). The reaon is that if we don't have this in place then some people will miss out on what is being discussed in some particular sessions.
Under section "How to submit", point one says "The name and affiliation of the presenter or moderator", I think we need to put "The name and affiliation of the presenter or moderator if any" because if we are accepting new presenters either within or out of our movement you should be aware that there is a high chance most of them will be unaffiliated. I also think under the same section point 3 and 4 may be merged as they can be coined into one. I think the abstract will leave enough information about what presenters are submitting and what prospective participants should be looking out for.
Lastly i saw this "Please contact the Programme Committeehttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiIndaba_conference_2018/Team at fnartey[@]wikimedia.orghttp://wikimedia.org." of which I think its an error.
Cheers,
