[Wikimedia-l] [WMBD] Bengali Wikipedia program with Grameen Phone (A Telenor group company)

[Nurunnaby Chowdhury]

Dear All,

I am happy to inform you Wikimedia Bangladesh (WMBD) has arranged a two day
(February 16 & 17, 2014) Wikipedia program with Grameen Phone (A Telenor
concern). Grameen Phone is the largest telecommunication company based in
Bangladesh. Besides, in Bangladesh Grameen Phone & Banglalink (A Orascom
Telecom and VimpelCom Ltd concern) now provide zero.wikipedia.org &
m.wikipedia.org, which is completely free of cost.

In this two-day program we will arrange different types of Workshops. WMBD
president Munir Hasan will conduct two seminars on wikipedia. Me & our
another Sysop of Bengali Wikipedia Nasir Khan will jointly run 2/3
workshops. Our target audience 70+ I-Genious student. This all I-Genious
students selected by a year-long program arranged by Grameen Phone & The
Daily Prothom Alo all over the country [1]. On the first day 35 & on the
second day 35 students will join this program. During the program we will
deliver hands on presentations, How to edit, how to contribute, How to
donate photo to commons. Moreover, we will enrich some articles those seem
incomplete..

After the successful completion of the program all i-Genious students will
receive certificates from WMBD & Grameen Phone.

In this program we are interested to show a video about wikipedia. It would
be great if anyone can give me a link where i may find the video.
