Project Plan[editar]

Activities[editar]

1. What is the purpose of the meeting and why is it important to your community?

  • We want to meet and encourage active editors who are not part of our group to join us. Those editor are potentiality we expect that some of them speak an indigenous languages, so we will talk about the Wikimedia projects in indigenous languages and encourage them to collaborate is those projects.
  • The last meeting of colombian wikimedians was in 2013, at that time we were not yet an user group (We were recognized in 2014, in part thanks to the projects and ideas that we started to develop at the 2013 meeting). Now we are an User Group (with an indefinitely renewal of our recognition as UG) and we think it's time to meet us again for coordinate efforts and improve our work.
  • We will talk about our experience in organizing events such as WLM and our own contest "Wikivacaciones" (2015 and 2016), we also want to talk about the possible organization of future events like edit-a-thons and others.
  • We did not have the chance to celebrate Wikipedia 15, so this would be a good excuse to do it now.
  • We are planning to make a Wiki Takes Bogotá or a photowalk through the city and visit a museum. We expect to get at least 50 photos.

2.If applicable, what benefits have you seen from doing this kind of meeting in the past?

This will be our first meet since we became an UG. However, we have participated in meetings in other meetings and events (such as Iberoconf, WMConf). These meeting have been very important to us because they have been useful to improve the group dynamics, to get to know us better and organize our work more effectively.

3.How will you let participants know about the meeting?

We will announce the meeting on all our social medias, also we plan to ask for a site notice on the Spanish language projects to inform all the potential interested wikimedians. All the interested editor will fill a survey and we will select the most active and best of them for participate the meeting.

4.How will you keep participants engaged after the meeting is over? We will keep in contact with the participants of the event. Note that the most part of the participants will be people who in one form or another already participate in the movement (Some of the are editors in Wikipedia, others in Spanish Wikivoyage, others upload their photos to Commons, etc) but they are not members or do not participate in the activities of Wikimedistas de Colombia. Experienced editors will keep in touch with the new participants.

5.Is there anything else you want to tell us about this project? No.

Impact[editar]

Note: In addition to your project-specific measures of success, you will also be asked to report on some Global Metrics at the end of your final report. Please keep this in mind as you plan, and we'll support you as you begin your project.

Mostly concentrated on Spanish Wikipedia and Commons; but also indirectly will may impact the general Wikimedia movement or more wiki projects (Mainly in Spanish). We strongly expect to help the creation and develop of projects in indigenous languages of Colombia.
