VVIT WikiConnnect/Report/Naga sai sravanth – TTT2019

Details edit

Please explain the outcome of your participation at the event: This was my first wiki event I have attended beyond the events organised by the club. In the span of three days I have interacted with Wikimedians across the country and got to know their contributions to Wikimedia and sister projects. I have learned about various Wikiprojects, organizing edit-a-thons with the help of outreach dashboard, GLAM, Wikimedia movement strategy and history of Free knowledge and open source movement. During the group activity me along with my team brought out an idea of improving Wikimedia Commons with the help of newspaper reporters and photographers.

How do think that this learning will help the club in further activities, or your work in the larger Wikimedia movement?: Before attending the event I was just an editor who improves the content on Wikipedia and sister projects. From the learning I am sure that I can lead the club and guide the fellow editors in the club. I know how to monitor the edits done by newbies on wiki. I am confident that I can influence my friends and fellow mates to involve in the Wikimedia movement.
