Hi,
In consent with the opinion expressed by Balaji
// *instead of training a two day editathon can be conducted with experts
helping people who face problems while proofreading. *//
I couldn't agree more. I myself face a lot many problem and such exercise
could benefit.
Similar to the suggestions I had raised during TTT 2019, having a community
jury to decide on the bids would be beneficial. Also, the idea floated by
Balaji on proposal for trainers is welcoming, this makes the community
inclusive (a community-run initiative).

Hi,
The title for the meeting in fixed as "Wiki Advanced Training". Already
minimum one training was conducted by CIS for many of the Indic wikisource
community. How the "Wiki Advanced Training" training is going to be
different from the earlier trainings. If there is an agenda for this
training and format of the training, it would be good to know before
bidding. Also any proposal for the trainers? What would be the criteria for
selection of people to attend this training? Because in many of the advance
trainings people without basics also attend and pull down the average level
of the trainings. (or they won't benefit from such trainings). Also to few
members I spoke in Tamil wikisource community felt that instead of training
a two day editathon can be conducted with experts helping people who face
problems while proofreading.
