Dear All - As some of you know I am co-developing Civil Society Spore and now wanna push it locally in Croatia with a pilot experimental project Civil Society wiki mapping arches and ideally use Wikidata ad Wikispore.
I feel it is urgent with the situation in Croatian Wikipedia even if it gets cleaned from most toxic admins (again on Meta frontpage 14 November:RfC: Global ban for Kubura), we need to counterbalance a decade of suppression.
We will try to get sociologist and pioneering peace activist Vesna Jankovic (fast learning Wiki enthusiast) to become WiR in a very prominent NGO in the region www.Documenta.hr *(that uses MediaWiki software internally!). We work a bit against the odds as there is no local affiliate, so we can only apply for RapidGrants + she has no Wikimedian reputation, but we submit it as a team of 4 people. I would love to hear your inputs in the plans.
If you like it feel free to endorse - please do so in next days https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Rapid/Piyacitta21/WikiMapping...
