Activities
Group activities
Wikimedia User Group Ethiopia plans to host outreach events, such as edit-a-thons and training sessions, around the country where experienced editors and newcomers can contribute to the Wikimedia projects together. We also plans to work with institutions to improve the quality of content on Wikipedia:
- Wikimedia Workshops – to help new Wikipedians learn editing techniques, the policies and guidelines of the different Wikimedia platforms and tools to increase their productivity.
- Meetings – for the Wikimedians in Ethiopia to exchange ideas and to check what support do they need to continue editing Wikipedia.
- Editing contests/Edit-a-thons – to encourage existing users edit Wikipedia and to encourage non-users join and enrich content about Ethiopia or work on and develop a certain topic..
- Photography trips and contests – to encourage users upload photos to Commons.
歴史
- Ever since it started out the Wikimedia User Group Ethiopia has been dedicated to developing a community of writers and creators of content. A key milestone, in the days was the coordination of a workshop by Wikimedia in May 2016 setting the stage, for upcoming projects focused on increasing involvement nationwide.
