Small wiki toolkits project logo

Welcome! This is an initiative to support small wiki communities in learning and sharing technical skills.

naviga tra i Toolkit

I Toolkit sono raccolte di strumenti raccomandati e risorse educative. Si concentrando su specifiche abilità tecniche per sviluppare, coltivare e mantenere piccole wiki. Puoi usare questi toolkit per imparare una serie di competenze tecniche, o usarli in un Workshop per istruire più persone.

Rivolgi le tue domande tecniche

Qualcosa non è chiaro? Domanda pure! I posti migliori per farlo sono normalmente il Support desk sul sito di MediaWiki (se è una domanda su MediaWiki), alcune mailing list e canali IRC, la pagina tecnica su meta-wiki o le pagine di discussione dei link sopra, dopo esserti accertato che la pagina di discussione sia stata attiva recentemente.

Aiuto con questa iniziativa

Do you have an idea for building technical capacity in your wiki community? Are you interested in workshops, virtual events, toolkits, video tutorials, or interested in exchanging problems and challenges in smaller wiki communities? Add a comment on the discussion page!

People working on this project organize and track what to work on in the Small-Wiki-Toolkits Phabricator project. We sometimes have video meetings, and we have a Small Wiki Toolkits Telegram group.

Develop toolkits

Toolkits provide a limited number of links to high-quality, task-oriented ("How can I…?") material. This often requires improving existing documentation first, to be consistent, up-to-date, and in plain English. We discuss existing documentation pages for a specific area in a corresponding Phabricator task, instead of listing ten "See Also" links for one topic on this very page. Ideally, we would also love to have short, well-done video tutorials on some topics, with subtitles that could be translated.

If you want to develop and document a toolkit yourself, here are some recommendations:

Toolkits should be task- and user-oriented. The question to answer is "How can I solve this problem?", not "Can you tell me more about this technology area?".
Use the toolkit presentation template slides. The template is also available in ODP file format.
Include notes for trainers on the slides where applicable so that both potential trainers or learners can benefit from it. For reference, see user scripts and gadgets toolkit source and its PDF version with detailed notes.
Upload your toolkit with detailed notes on Wikimedia Commons & add the Small wiki toolkits category. In the File Description, add a link to the PDF source if you are willing to let a potential trainer make a copy and modifications to the source. See for reference, the description section of these slides on Wikimedia Commons.
