Hey folks - I started editing a bit on
simple.wikipedia.org as I find
it important entry point for people who have lower level of
understanding written and elaborate English + over-abundance of
information inside of the main and mature Wikipedia articles.
I also want to start encouraging people in my region to consider
applying for the WiR positions (as none have done before me) and also
as I will work with local GLAMs to understand this better in 2021.
However I found WiRs page super short and made first corrections
https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/Wikimedian_in_Residence
What text or media do you think should be added to this?
My impression is it should not go much more than 2-3 extra paragraphs...
It would be ideal for this to be developed with other non-native
speakers and people who recently entered Wikimedia ecosystem (if they
still remember impressions of getting first info and figuring things
out)...than reviewed by native speakers and long-time insiders :-)
Best Z
