Script about Campaigns Feature edit
Introduction (If necessary) My name is Jacey Mitchell and I am the Communications Intern for the Learning and Evaluation Team here at Wikimedia. Today I am doing a brief summary and walk through of the campaign feature on the Programs and Events Dashboard.
Why Use the Campaign Feature This feature allows you to create a campaign that can encompass many programs. You can also create a program within a campaign while having convenient access to useful program resources such as templates, program details, data tracking, etc. The campaign feature helps you to better connect with other program organizers that are joining your campaign and visualize in one place your collective impact.
How to Create a Campaign Go to the Dashboard page
Click the “Find Programs” link
At the bottom of the list of Active Campaigns, click the “Create a New Campaign” link
Fill in the applicable information into the dialogue box
Title Start/End Dates (for campaigns, these are optional) Description/Details
Once your campaign is created, you can continue to edit it until a participant makes an edit. If you need to change your campaign details or made an error after this point, you must contact an Admin to make a change or delete the campaign.
How to Create a Program within a Campaign Go to the Dashboard page
Click the “Find Programs” link
On the list, find the campaign you would like to join
For example, click the “Art + Feminism” link
Here you can see a list of all the current programs within that campaign. You can join one of these as well if that better suits your purposes
At the top of the page click the campaign “Home” link
Once there, you will see a campaign summary, campaign details, a program template you can use, and further event info
From this page, you can click the “Create a Program” link to create your own program within the campaign. Why does this step mater? It is important to create a program within the campaign you’d like to join, because otherwise you won’t be part of a specific campaign and an Admin must fix that error for you.
You can then fill in the dialogue box with the relevant information including:
Program Title Institution Home Language Home Project Start/End Date
Useful Data for Program Leaders On the top bar of each campaign and program you can see the number of: Programs Created (or for programs, number of articles created) Editors Words Added Article Views Articles Edited Articles Created Commons Uploads
If you go to outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/campaigns you can see a list of all data for each campaign. Here, you will also find a button to create a new campaign.
Brief Conclusion
Thank you for watching! If you have any issues or further questions, feel free to email us at dashboard@wikimedia.org
Introduction edit
This feature allows you to create a campaign that encompasses many programs. You can create a program template within that campaign that people can use to run their own events. It will basically allow people to easily create their own event within that campaign. The feature contains campaign information, program details, and a program template. It has a link that allows you to create your own program using these resources. The campaign feature is also a very useful tracking tool. It includes all statistics from the various programs and puts them in combined for that particular campaign.
