Dear All,
I am happy to inform you Wikimedia Bangladesh (WMBD) has arranged a two day
(February 16 & 17, 2014) Wikipedia program with Grameen Phone (A Telenor
concern). Grameen Phone is the largest telecommunication company based in
Bangladesh. Besides, in Bangladesh Grameen Phone & Banglalink (A Orascom
Telecom and VimpelCom Ltd concern) now provide zero.wikipedia.org &
m.wikipedia.org, which is completely free of cost.
In this two-day program we will arrange different types of Workshops. WMBD
president Munir Hasan will conduct two seminars on wikipedia. Me & our
another Sysop of Bengali Wikipedia Nasir Khan will jointly run 2/3
workshops. Our target audience 70+ I-Genious student. This all I-Genious
students selected by a year-long program arranged by Grameen Phone & The
Daily Prothom Alo all over the country [1]. On the first day 35 & on the
second day 35 students will join this program. During the program we will
deliver hands on presentations, How to edit, how to contribute, How to
donate photo to commons. Moreover, we will enrich some articles those seem
incomplete..
After the successful completion of the program all i-Genious students will
receive certificates from WMBD & Grameen Phone.
In this program we are interested to show a video about wikipedia. It would
be great if anyone can give me a link where i may find the video.

For the first quarter of 2014, we are launching School of Open courses on a
rolling basis in February, March, and April. The first course to open for

https://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/41933.
*Below, Sara Frank Bristow invites you to join “Writing Wikipedia Articles:
The Basics & Beyond”. Sara is a co-organizer of the course and a member of
WikiProject Open <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:OPEN>. Both
projects are part of the School of Open.*
------------------------------
The School of Open will offer its popular “Writing Wikipedia
Articles<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WIKISOO>”

WIKISOO students learn about the values and culture that have driven
hundreds of thousands of volunteers to build Wikipedia. Through their work
in the course, they join an effort that has generated millions of free
articles in hundreds of languages since 2001.The course covers the
technical skills needed to edit articles, and also offers practical
insights into the site’s collaborative norms and social dynamics. Students
graduate with a sophisticated understanding of how to use Wikipedia both as
a reader and as an active participant.
The course focuses on articles about openness in education: open
educational resources<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_educational_resources>(OER),
MOOCs <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOOCs>, Creative
Commons<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons>
licenses <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons_license> and more.
Students will forge connections with WikiProject
Open<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:OPEN>,
a community of volunteers focused on this topic area. Upon successful
completion, students earn the WIKISOO Burba
Badge<http://badges.p2pu.org/en/badge/view/22/>

জয়ন্তদাকে অভিনন্দন!!
"Banglapedia has less than 200 editors of which more than 150 are from
Bangladesh, while only ten are from West Bengal."
তবে এ লেখাটাতেও বাংলাপিডিয়া এবং বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়া গুলিয়ে ফেলা হয়েছে যা
দুঃখজনক। আশা করি এ বিষয়টি পরবর্তী নিউজগুলোতে খেয়াল রাখবেন।
ধন্যবাদান্তে,
বেলায়েত
