Fwd: [Wikimediaindia-l] Project Tiger 2.0 - Hardware support update

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Suswetha Kolluru <suswetha316(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2019, 19:55 Subject: [Wikimediaindia-l] Project Tiger 2.0 - Hardware support update To: Wikimedia India Community list <wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Hello all, As you know, Google and Wikimedia Foundation collaborated to work on bridging the knowledge gap, and support the growth of Indic language Wikipedias through Project Tiger. The effort started in 2018, with the first Tiger pilot, and continues with running the current Tiger 2.0. As part of Project Tiger 1.0 pilot, 50 Chromebooks, and internet stipends, were given as support to experienced and deserving Wikimedians, in order to help eliminate any obstacles that editors may face due to technology or resources. As part of the community consultation carried out to evaluate the Tiger pilot, and to better inform the planning of Tiger 2.0, one community feedback was about Chromebooks and their usability, and the fact that using laptop machines, would have been a better option. As per community feedback, Chromebooks haven't been the most efficient or most familiar to communities, and so exploring the purchase of laptop devices has been considered, as an adaptation and localization, for Tiger 2.0. The India pilot consultation informed the decision of hardware support for Tiger 2.0 in India, and was also inspiring to focus on local community preferences and adaptations in different countries where the overall project GLOW <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Project_GLOW> is running. Hence this year, Wikimedians selected for support, (which was initially named Chromebook support) will get ACER laptops, to help them quickly start editing, instead of investing time, while onboarding a new device.We hope it will be more efficient for Wikipedians. Moving forward, we will get more effective feedback or suggestions from communities about important aspects. Communities’ responses are most important for growing a movement. As mentioned, different countries and communities running GLOW, are as well making their localized decisions about the best hardware support to provide to the community, so that GLOW support is more relevant. Our sincere apologies as the process is getting late but the hardware support will be provided soon. _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l

Wiki Conference India 2020: IRC around Initial conversations
by pavan santhosh 19 Oct '19

19 Oct '19

Hello everyone, We have a few updates regarding the WikiConference India 2020 proposal for Hyderabad. Initial conversations around the proposal of conducting Wiki Conference India 2020 in Hyderabad were started in earlier this month in several Indian wikimedia spaces (Wikimedia India-l mailing list, Meta-Wiki, and, several Indian language Wikipedias village pumps). Firstly, we are happy to share the news that there has been a very good positive response from individual Wikimedians[1]. Also there have community-wide discussions on local Village Pumps on various languages. Several of these discussions have reached consensus[2], and are supporting this idea. We will be engaging with more communities this week, and clear any concerns/doubts people may have during this week. Also to wrap up these discussions and conclude, we would like to call for IRC. Details of IRC: * Timings and Date: 6:00 pm on 20 November 2019 * Website: https://webchat.freenode.net/ * Channel: #wci Looking forward for all your active participation. Thanks & Regards, Pavan Santhosh. [1] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_India_2020:_Initial_conversa… [2] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_India_2020:_Initial_conversa…

Happy Gandhi Jayanti to you and all! Very pleased to see WCI being organised again, as they say, better late than never. Thanks Telugu wiki community for taking lead. I will love to help remotely as much as I can and will hope to be able to attend it as well.
