東亞與東南亞維基人會議

This is a conference that currently in draft for chapters and user groups related to East and Southeast Asia to meet up regionally. The project title is still temporary.

會議目前仍在東亞與東南亞區域的分會以及用戶組籌備的過程，本文件是暫定的草稿。

緣起

Wikimania 2014的時候，有數個來自東亞區域的維基人（來自中國用戶組的Addis、來自香港分會的Samuel跟Kris、來自菲律賓分會的Eugene及Joel、來自印尼分會的Ichsan、來自台灣分會的Liang、來自泰國用戶組的Taweetham、以及來自維基媒體基金會教育團隊的Anna Koval。我們討論地區性合作有哪些目的。

During the Wikimania 2014, there are several people from East Asia Region (Addis from WUG-CN, Samuel and Kris from WMHK, Eugene and Joel from WMPH, Ichsan from WMID, Liang from WMTW, Taweetham from Usergroup Thailand, and Anna Koval from Education Team of Wikimedia Foundation) who talked about the purpose to collaborate in a regional way.

目的

我們希望讓這次的會議，成為東亞與東南亞進行實質區域合作、以及了解過去成功在地案例的機會。透過這次的「小型Wikimania」，我們也想讓參與的維基媒體組織，能夠分享各自國家中推動的專案的成功經驗，以便其他想要在自己的地理區開始類似專案的成員能夠得到聽到前人的分享與建議。

We would like to make the meetup as a chance of collaboration on practical projects and successful case studies. Through this "mini-Wikimania" we are looking for a chance that chapters involved may share their own experiences on the variety of programmes that their chapters have been participated and allowing that other chapters who are looking for initiate these topics may gain their advices needed.

虽然存在着文化差异、历史和教育等与维基媒体项目无关的干扰因素，我们还是尽力地在不同地区间的维基人之间建立联系，更何况现实中也有些区域性国际合作的案例。因此我们觉得有必要为使用中文、日文、韩文以及东南亚诸语言的维基人之间创造这样的一次机会，同时也欢迎相对年轻的区域组织成员（比如爪哇语维基人）参与此项活动。
