Affiliation: Wikimedia User Group in Tanzania Theme(s): Quality free knowledge contents in local Wikipedias
Abstract:

Mostly of computer generated articles in small Wikipedia comes from different organized hackathons, programs that are timely bases, where by organizes are funded and are supposed to reach the target of certain number of articles. I conducted some studies and I have come into conclusion of the following. 1. Organizers tends to recruit new users where by their number is big and they can’t manage 2. Organizers don’t go through the articles created before published 3. Admins and others experiences contributors in small Wikipedia become overwhelmed with these poor contents in such a way they can’t correct or delete all of them 4. Most of the created contents gets deleted in future and makes no sense of the intention of that hackathon or event. Hence I have thought of a way that can help avoiding this and improving quality of contents in Small Wikipedia.
