Project scope edit
Production of an instructive video presenting Wikipedia, its goals, and the first steps for a new user to take.
This idea has been greatly influenced by the Italian WikiGuide to Wikipedia[1],other Video tutorials and Instructional videos already created, none of which targets the Spanish speaking audience.
Project goal edit
To bring more Spanish speaking users to Wikipedia, and convert casual readers into contributors.
Non-financial requirements edit
We will need to work together with Frank Schulenburg and the outreach taem to produce a good quality script, probably based on existing ones (i.e. Guided tour 1 and Guided tour 2.
We expect to cover some otherwise paid positions (speaker, direction, distribution, etc.) with volunteers such as radio-speaker and cinema students if we find appropriate candidates.
Fit to strategy edit
Expands the universe of users and contributors of Wikipedia, and hopefully other Wikimedia projects.
Other benefits edit
The video can be used in all Spanish speaking countries. Though some might wish to recreate the audio channel with a localized version of the Spanish language, the pages edited and the captions will be in standard-international Spanish.
Measures of success edit
- New contributors to the Spanish Wikipedia (unmeasurable)
- Views at the YouTube channel crated for that purpose, number of accesses to the file at commons.
- Transmissions on TV by cultural and education programs.
- Number of shares at digs, tweeter and other social sharing sites.
