Not organised
Editing weekends
- Goals met by this activity
Just like the previous quarter, 13 editing weekends were again held and the results are: 61 participations in total that achieved 174 new articles created and 1 improved template.
- Some considerations
Hence, due to COVID-19 lockout, every weekend was dedicated for editing. That is the reason for the relatively high number of covered articles.
Editing days
- Goals met by this activity
This subdivision is the same like the weekends. This quarter achieved 25 days dedicated for editing, participated 86 times. Given that, 399 new articles and 1 improved article were the quarterly results.
Wiki Sketch
- Goals met by this activity
Again, the two users were the participants, of which one was from the past 2020 quarters. Many articles and templates about archaeology, history, films, and music got covered. So this three month, 9 articles got created and one being improved. Additionally, 29 templates were created.
- Some considerations
Team Viewer and Chrome Remote Desktop were our tools for communication between the mentor and volunteers for safety reasons. That made the traveling non existing, so by working from home, the participants were more productive than the pre COVID lockout.
Photohunts
- Goals met by this activity
One Photohunt in the Municipality of Kratovo, attended by one participant + 1 person for help. Three places got visited (village of Konjuh, village of Stracin and the town of Kratovo). The Participant managed to make and upload 25 images.
- Some considerations
The plan was to visit and photograph the non covered villages by the wiki community and the sites listed as cultural heritage of Macedonia in Kratovo.
