Hi Asaf, Thanks for the generous offer to us.I remember pointing this particular aspect and am glad the Foundation Considered it.
One such lesson is the need for more intensive training for the participants, the vast majority of whom are non-Wikipedians.
Perhaps having Judges that would serve as Wiki-Mentors rather than the normal judging focused on mistakes and marks.
And about your question:
My question to you -- is any of you interested in delivering this training, _and_ is available on that week for an entire week, _and_ is able to travel to these countries (passports etc.)? The travel costs will be covered by the Foundation, and accommodation covered by Google.
I would very much love to deliver some of this training and first hand experience in the Challenge and the Challenges we(I) encountered.I have my passport ready and all that remains is the visa and will be available in the said week.
Thank you in advance....
yours,
