Good initiative, I let some suggestion at Meta:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:CIS-A2K/Train-a-Wikipedian



The only substantial criticism is the Wikipediacentrism on this project;
because most of those things that you will teach in this project could be
applied in all Wikimedia Movement on-line communities, but if you would not
include on the learning, they may not know that.

See ya.

Thanks for sharing, Tito. Looking forward to hearing how the
Train-a-Wikipedian project goes in those five languages.

[Wikimedia-l] Train-a-Wikipedian (TAW): New initiative

2015-11-01 Thread Tito Dutta
Hello,

I want to inform you about a new project “Train-a-Wikipedian” (TAW),
powered by CIS-A2K.

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Train-a-Wikipedian

You may know of the English Wikipedia program Adopt-a-user
. We wanted to start
something similar for the Indian Wikimedia communities.

In February and June this year, CIS-A2K conducted Train the Trainer
 (TTT) and MediaWiki Train
the Trainer

(MWTTT). After conducting these two events, and communicating with the
participants we found the necessity to start a training program that we’ll
be running on regular basis, and from there we conceived this
“Train-a-Wikipedian” program.

Initially, we’ll concentrating on these 5 Indian languages Wikis: 1)
Kannada, 2) Konkani, 3) Marathi, 4) Odia, 5) Telugu. But, we may expand
soon, if our program is a success.

In our TAW main page
, we have
listed a number of topics those we’ll discussing during our training. We
hope to conduct hangout or webinar sessions.

Please provide your feedback and suggestion. :-)

Regards.
