Hi All,
***Please excuse previous incomplete mail sent by mistake.***
I'm very new to Wikimedia, but delighted since joining this list last week.
Godspeed to everyone in the Pune Pilots 1k Program. I read the "Robinson Crusoe
Economy" article. It is so clean, complete and elegant. It will be a privilige to be
given an opportunity to work with you, now and upon roll-out.
So I've submitted my Online Ambassador Application, and am keeping my fingers crossed.
But here start my questions.
1. In the application I've given my locality, city (kolkata), state & country. Was
the full postal address required. If so, should I re-submit?
2. Could there be training sessions for Online/Campus Ambassadors at Mumbai just before or
after the Conference dates? [I'd not like to tie-up conference time with classrom
time]
3. Also, could there be similar sessions for Wikipedia editors to improve their
Wikiabilities generally.
4. Could/would there be a facility to hire laptops for the duration of the Conference - if
not generally, then on the basis of request/choice made via the registration form?
Thanks and Regards,
VivekM

Hey Vivek,
Don't bother about the incomplete mail. Happens with most of us at times. J
So good to hear that you're excited about the India Education Program and
becoming an online ambassador.
But here start my questions.
1. In the application I've given my locality, city (kolkata), state &
country. Was the full postal address required. If so, should I re-submit?
No

There will be an online training session for the OA. And for Pune CAs, we
are conducting a training session this weekend 10th & 11th Sep.
3. Also, could there be similar sessions for Wikipedia editors to
improve their Wikiabilities generally.
Yes, there are WikiAcademies being planned. Please request the Chapter or
the Mumbai community to respond.
4. Could/would there be a facility to hire laptops for the duration of
the Conference - if not generally, then on the basis of request/choice made
via the registration form?
Could you please post this question on the WikiConference mailing list:
wikiconference-india(a)lists.wikimedia.org . They'll be in a better position
to reply.
Thanks
