Dear Wikimedians,
We are happy to announce that the Indic MediaWiki Developers User Group
will be organizing Indic Hackathon 2022, a regional event as part of the
main hackathon taking place in a hybrid mode during 20-22 May 2022. The
event will take place in Hyderabad.
The event page can be seen at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic_Hackathon_2022.
In this regard, we would like to invite community members who would like to
attend in-person to fill out a form for scholarship applications by 17
April, which is available on the event page. Please note that the hackathon
won’t be focusing on training of new skills, and it is expected that
applications have some experience/knowledge contributing to technical areas
of the Wikimedia movement.
Please post on the event talk page
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic_Hackathon_2022> if you have any
queries.
Regards

Dear Wikimedians,
We are happy to announce that the Indic MediaWiki Developers User Group
will be organizing Indic Hackathon 2022, a regional event as part of the
main hackathon taking place in a hybrid mode during 20-22 May 2022. The
event will take place in Hyderabad.
As we have mentioned in our previous email informing about the grant
proposal, the regional event will be in-person with support for virtual
participation. As it is with any hackathon, the event’s program will be
semi-structured i.e. while we will have some sessions in sync with the main
hackathon event, the rest of the time will be upto participants’ interest
on what issues they are interested to work on. The event page can be seen
at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic_Hackathon_2022.
In this regard, we would like to invite community members who would like to
attend in-person to fill out a form for scholarship applications by 17

Hi friends,
The Education team[1] at the Wikimedia Foundation is happy to share a
survey aiming to investigate academic faculty’s perceptions of Wikipedia in
Higher Education. You are kindly invited to participate in this survey if
you are working in the higher education related sector. We appreciate your
participation. And you are also very welcome to share this survey with your
networks.
The goal of this survey is (1) to retrieve a demographic observation about
the academic faculty’s perception of Wikipedia in Higher Education, (2) to
understand the factors that contribute to the perception of the academic
faculty towards Wikipedia, and (3) with the findings analyzed, develop
supportive programming.
