Project Plan edit

Activities edit

Tell us how you'll carry out your project. What will you and other organizers spend your time doing?

I will share the experience of Ukrainian librarians and the results of our trainings. In 2016 and 2017, trainings were organized on writing articles and uploading photos, as a result, the number of new editors in the Ukrainian Wikipedia increased.

How will you let others in your community know about your project (please provide links to where relevant communities have been notified of your proposal, and to any other relevant community discussions)? Why are you targeting a specific audience?

I announced my master class on this page https://ru.wikimedia.org/wiki/Вики-конференция_2017/Программа (number 6). Because teaching librarians to work with Wikipedia is important for all countries. The site of the Nekrasov library (which is a major methodological center for Moscow libraries) will be used for the ad.

What will you have done at the end of your project? How will you follow-up with people that are involved with your project?

I check the photos uploaded by the librarians, formulate comments, after which we will work on the errors. In the future I will advise them remotely.
