Hi,
In Barcelona this March we'll host an editathon with journalists too. It will be in the headquarters of Catalunya Radio with the purpose to improve the article of the prominent journalist Ramon Barnils https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramon_Barnils, one of the founders of Catalunya Radio, the public radio service in Catalonia. It will be the day of the death of this journalist, and also the day of birth of Catalan Wikipedia :)
All along the day the radio programs will connect in live with us to cover how the editathon is going, to explain the history of Wikipedia, and it will push our challenge to achieve 500k articles this year.
We'll have soon the article translated into English, so I invite you to help us translating the article in your own language ;)
Apart from that, Amical also do workshops to digital journalism students at Ramon Llull University.

Wikimedia Hungary did a workshop as well with sport journalists.
What we learnt is to keep it simple (teaching the basics is enough) and brake it into multiple rounds (we broke it into two rounds - not enough) and make it interactive (edit together from the first to the last sec).
Hope I helped a bit :)

Hello, Andrea:
This sounds like an interesting project!
Here are some examples that popped into my head right away: *CIS (is planning a workshop for journalists as part of Kannada language outreach) *Wikimedia CH (did some work building a network of journalism schools) *Wikimedia Argentina (did at least one workshop for journalists back in 2012 in Rosario City) *Wikimedia Deutschland (did at least one workshop back in 2013 with journalists from ZDF Berlin) *The Malayalam community did a workshop for journalists as part of the events leading up to their community's 2013 conference
Not sure if everyone I've listed is working on this currently, but these groups may have some experience to share. And there must be others I haven't listed here! Seems like a good opportunity to share some learning patterns on this topic, since I haven't found much there about working
with
journalists! :)

Cheers and best of luck with your project! We look forward to the
results.
Winifred

Dear all, I was wondering if anyone, in the Wikimedia movement, has done editathons and wiki-events with *journalists*. In April, Wikimedia Italia will host a workshop at the International Journalism Festival, and we'd welcome tips and suggestions.
Cheers
