Hi everyone. In the past, several community members have worked to enable Citoid on their wiki < https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Citoid/Enabling_Citoid_on_your_wiki%3E and to get an easier referencing experience in the visual editor. In order to create references from websites, Citoid heavily relies on peculiar code, a.k.a. Zotero "translators" < https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zotero%3E; because of this, and because we want to complement existing documentation about how to write them, we have gladly accepted the offer of Sebastian Karcher, one of Zotero's main contributors http://www.sebastiankarcher.com/?page_id=33, to host a dedicated Tech Talk later this month. Find all the details below. Huge thanks to User:Czar and Rachel F. for making this happen. Please spread the word among your communities!
Best, Elitre (WMF)
