hi,

I think we need to do a lot more activities and experiment with many
more formats and understand incentives needed much better before
trying the money incentive.

That said, we hope to have a meetup, but it seems the entire city
might be running the Mumbai Marathon. So, let's see.

FWIW, the prize/incentive model for "Wiki takes X" has been done before:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Takes_Montreal

But if you are really going the prize/incentive route, you need to be
prepared to answer a lot of questions, and provide results to justify
involving money . As a coordinator of the the ongoing TamilWiki Media
Contest, i have been facing similar questions. At the end of the day, the

These strong resistances and perhaps the lack of having tried ever keeps
our outreach to mailing lists and drafts. Souvenirs, like Wiki takes
Manila, make a lasting impact. However, this was just a suggestion, those
motivated (read 10 people from every city) will turn up anyway. :) Happy

2011-12-31 Thread Anirudh Bhati
Hi all,

Though I agree in principle that the inclusion of money in any open-source
movement disrupts the eco-system of volunteers.  However, the small
prize-model for encouraging contributions is benign, with
offers potentially greater benefits.

For example, Wikimedia Indonesia's project
Ciptagenerated
thousands of articles and hundreds of thousands of contributions
in local languages of the Indonesia.  The project ran throughout the year
and incentivized editing through a prize-model.  I think it is okay to
distribute small prizes once in a while to get some publicity and to try
and get the attention of potential long-term contributors.  Funds channeled
through volunteers and to support volunteer programs can be effectively
utilized through such programs.  Volunteers are also cash-efficient and
directly responsible to the community.

Yours sincerely,

Anirudh Bhati

2011-12-31 Thread Pradeep Mohandas
hi,

The idea for the need of micro-grant here is worrying. I don't think this
incentive is needed nor should be given at this point in time. We're trying
to make the photographs on Commons much better. The incentive is that the
best photographs will adorn the Wikipedia article that will link back to
the person who took the picture. It's a huge incentive for a budding
photographer. It is something he/she can point to. The introduction of
money into this equation, makes it competitive and removes the fun that
these events can be, IMHO.

As Mehul suggested in this thread, we've tried to get together with a
photography group that goes on photowalks every Sunday morning.
User:AroundTheGlobe had managed to get some photos donated vide Flickr
groups.

I think very few photography groups have taken the effort to inform the
group about copyright and how to protect their copyrights. Also, there is a
lack of understanding of Creative Commons and what it means to be donating
the image to CC-BY or CC-BY-SA license. The photographers should understand
this.

Another misconception is that donation of the photograph does not equal its
use on the Wikipedia page forever. A better image might come out and this
might be replaced. Or the photograph may be removed. In these
circumstances, the relevance to the article is paramount when used on
Wikipedia.

However, Commons could also become sourcing grounds for journalists and
media houses just like Flickr. I think this is also something that we
should pitch to the photographers, if we approach them.

Apologies for the longish email,

Pradeep

Great to see so much enthusiasm. Pradeep mentioned a Mumbai Photowalk earlier 
this year (CST to Cooperage) - suggest a different part of Mumbai is picked for 
the next one (with so much enthusiasm, I hope to see another soon!).

For details on the previous one, see:

Hi Ansuman,
I don't think anybody from Mumbai team is currently working on this.If you are 
interested, you must organise it.

Hi All



I am a new member who registered at Wiki Conference Mumbai in

November. I have been in touch with some of the people I met. Some of

them are involved in organising the Wiki Takes Ahmedabad (http://

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Takes_Ahmedabad) event

scheduled for Jan 3, about which Tinu posted earlier -

http://groups.google.com/group/wmin-members/browse_thread/thread/f23ff51f6e43ac66.



I have talked to a few other attendees from Mumbai who would love to

organise or aid with organising such an event in Mumbai. Is somebody

already working on this? If so, we should talk!



Cheers

Anshuman

hi Anshuman (is he there on this list or just on the wmin-members list?)

We did a Wikipedia Takes Mumbai in 2011. We're having a meetup on January
15, 2011. Do drop in and I'm sure we can do something like Wikipedia takes
Mumbai during that time. The proper meetup announcement will be made in the
next few days.

warm regards,
Pradeep

I'd've expected it sooner, like 2010 or so.
Offtopic note, after the runaway success of WP taketh Chennai, wy
back in 2009, I know, most of you would've forgotten, I tried
organising one in Bangalore, which never took place. I even created a
page for it. If anyone is interested, 15th Jan sounds brilliant for
