Dear all,

I hope you are doing well. Glad to announce that CIS-A2K is going to
conduct an event,  Indic Wiki improve-a-thon 2022, for the Indic language.
It will run from 15 December to 5 January 2023. It will be an online
activity however if communities want to organise any on-ground activity
under Improve-a-thon that would also be welcome. The event has its own
theme Azadi Ka Mahatosav which is based on a celebration of the 75th
anniversary of Indian Independence. The event will be for 20 days only.

This is an effort to work on content enrichment and improvement jointly
online and offline. We encourage the communities to plan a short activity
under this event and work on the content on your local Wikis. The event is
not restricted to a project, anyone can edit any project by following the
theme. The event page link is here
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic_Wiki_Improve-a-thon_2022>. The list
is under preparation and will be updated soon. The community can also
prepare their list for this improve-a-thon.

can discuss the idea of the event, how communities and individuals can
participate, FAQ etc.

[Wikipedia-gu] COVID-19 support for Indian volunteers

2021-05-01 Thread Jayanta Nath
Hello Wikimedians,

We are all passing through a very difficult time as the second wave of
COVID-19 has hit hard throughout the country. It is a bitter and hard truth
that many of us have lost our loved ones, close friends, relatives,
neighbours already. Some of us have faced economic difficulties due to loss
of jobs, losses in businesses, huge hospitalization expenses etc.

In the midst of this crisis, a support program has been initiated to
provide some reliefs to our Wikimedia volunteers residing in India. The
program will support the following -

1. Reimbursement of vaccination costs
2. Sending of COVID-19 protection kits
3. Counseling by experts

The support will be provided by CIS-A2K. The vaccination expenses will be
reimbursed as early as April 30, 2021. The COVID-19 protection kits will
get couriered within a week or more, depending on various logistical
factors. The team will try to support the more vulnerable section of the
community first.

Volunteers are requested to fill up this Google Form to request support -
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScYcjEeuT7vUxP3NJg7KfIiZaude9IXLyCagsDarTx11J4ymA/viewform

If you do not need this kind of support but you know some volunteers from
your community who are in dire need, you can nominate them too through this
form or mail the support team directly. Affiliate contacts and community
leaders are also kindly requested to help identify the volunteers who need
the support the most.

You can find more details about the support program here -
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_support_for_Wikimedians/India

Please read the FAQ subpage too -
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_support_for_Wikimedians/India/FAQ

The support team would also like to emphasise that,

a)  there might be some delay in sending support as there are lockdowns in
different parts of the country and there is scarcity or non-availability of
different items in the market,
b) there might be some unintentional or unexpected errors from the team, as
this is the first time, this kind of support is being set up for Indian
Wikimedia volunteers and the team does not have prior experience to deal
with this kind of global health situation before.
c) the team members are also facing the same critical situation like
everyone else; there are possibilities that they can become sick sooner or
later, which might hamper the support to some extent.

That's why the team would like to request you to understand the limitations
and assume good faith that any failure to serve sometimes would be due to
situations beyond control.

If you want to contact us directly for any questions, concerns,
suggestions, help etc. you can mail us directly at w...@cis-india.org .

Let's join hands to overcome this situation.

Regards,
Jayanta

Hi all,

CIS-A2K <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K> is planning to invest
some resources from May-June 2020 to create community movement resource
(CMR) materials in English and different Indic languages for Wikisource in
the form of tutorials, handbooks, infographics, videos, animations etc. The
aim of this initiative is to build a pool of resource materials for
Wikisource eventually, which will serve as ready-made handy references for
new as well as experienced users. You are requested to fill up this form
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeTgGEXCjONue6owzPtPdMU9Erc2jgas8p6KjSqfE2i5rpeVw/viewform>,

build the CMR with your different areas of expertise.

Take care,

[Wikipedia-gu] Indic language Wikisource Skill Share

2020-04-08 Thread Jayanta Nath
Hi Gujarati Wikisource Community,

As COVID-19 has forced the Wikimedia communities to stay at home and like
many other affiliates, CIS-A2K has decided to suspend all offline
activities till 15th September 2020 (or till further notice).I present to
you for an online training session for future coming months.

1. Wikisource Skill Share,[1] a capacity-building initiative, where Indic
Wikisource contributors, both newcomers and experienced, can share
knowledge and skills with each other and clear confusions. Most of the
time, it will be done online on 1:1 basis, so it is just the right time to
participate there if you have not planned to do it or done it already.
Let's learn Wikisource together! I would like to invite experienced Indic
Wikisource contributors and sign your name at Willing to respond section
[2]. Newcomer or any  Indic Wikisource contributors are welcome to join the
session with your queries and doubts.

2. Intensive Personalized Training (or IPT),[3] this also a
 capacity-building initiative, where Indic Wikisource contributors,
especially newcomers could come with his/her queries and doubts. I, myself
will share my knowledge and skills with each contributor and clear
confusions. It will be done online on a 1:1 basis, so it is just the right
time to participate there if you have not planned to do so.

3. Online Proofread-edithon for all 12 Indic Wikisource language projects.
We are planning for an indic level online proofreadthon from 1 May 2020 to
10 May 2020. The book of the subject will be the classical literature of
your languages. We’ll share details about this in a separate email in a
couple of days.

[Wikipedia-gu] Indic Wikisource IRC 17th February 2019

2019-02-10 Thread Jayanta Nath
Dear All,

Firstly I would like to thank you for the continuous support and
contribution to the Wikimedia movement specially in Wikisource.

You are aware that after first wikisourse workshop organized in Patiala,
the Punjabi Wikisource Community is growing rapidly, reaching a total of
7000+ pages proofreaded in last two month. For updated page/
digitized content you go here[2]

But Indic community members have not got any chance to advantages for this
kind of Workshop for their language community. Workshop for Wikisource
of Punjabi,
Sanskrit &  Kannada language community  is completed. Assamese, Gujarati &
Tamil have shown their interest for workshop in coming month. Keeping this
in mind we are planning to have an IRC[1] on 17th February 2019 (@8PM) for
the Indic Wikisource community. Please suggest more Agenda for the IRC.

:Agenda


   - Update status of what we have done after first IRC and IWCC2018
   - Major issues we faced, and how do I help personally towards the
   specific community ( Offline and Online both)
   - Organize edit-thon for Wikisource  ( Offline and Online both)
   - Workshop planning for other community for Oriya Malayalam, Tamil,
   Telugu (  )
   - Advance Wikisource Workshop for Punjabi Community.
   - Add more if you have to discuss ….

 Dear Kartikbhai,

 That is not the proposal by Gujarati wiki community, it is from CIS. Also,
 if you notice, in that proposal, there is no payment to the community, who
 will really be putting pain in digitising/uploading/typing/correcting the
 content. And on the contrary, CIS staff will be paid a reasonable share
 from the grant.

 I have my name mentioned in that proposal, for which I have to had provide
 declaration on a discussion page of CIS's grant application. I am on my
 mobile at the moment so can't find the link to it to share. If anyone wants
 to see my comment, let me know and I will share the link.

 Yes, of course, the idea on which CIS has built the proposal was from me,
 but I had only spoken once soon after wikimenia and then came to know about
 proposal just when it was ready. I have had no more involvement in that
 proposal apart from initial idea, which was jointly shared by Sushant
 Savla, a fellow admin on gu.wikisource.
