Inspire campaign

Youtube channel

The Wikipedia channel on YouTube needs to be developed more. You need to publish videos on how to create a new article and how to edit it and how to share information with the community in Arabic and English, and now the most young people are using YouTube in a large and daily way. This can help to spread the wiki more quickly in our societies. Arabic.

About the idea creator

I would like to make an intervention on my personal experience about starting my knowledge of Arabic Wikipedia at a workshop in Erbil, and then my enthusiasm in the addition to Wikipedia until my articles reached 169 articles and 2325 edits, and how to compete all day with the rest of the workshop about who will add More to the Encyclopedia
