Learning edit

Projects do not always go according to plan. Sharing what you learned can help you and others plan similar projects in the future. Help the movement learn from your experience by answering the following questions:

  • What worked well?


The website designer worked very well in symbiosis with the two co-founders of Noircir and Ennegreciendo. She was proactive, effective and answered quickly to our demands.

  • What did not work so well?


we would like to insert some ressource-content created by Whose Knowledge on the website and we have not found yet how to proceed. The ideal would be to have a preview in our website, the title of the document, and that the viewer could click on the preview and be re-directed to Wikimedia Commons file. As an exemple, this one: commons:File:Cómo subir imágenes a Wikimedia Commons.pdf

  • What would you do differently next time?


Next time we will include in the budget a line for bank cost. Indeed, we did not planify the fact that the bank would debit us 22.-chf for doing an international transaction to the designer.
