Re: [Wikisource-l] Wikisource Conference in Warsaw 2020/2021

2019-12-17 Thread balaji 
Hello Ankry,

Thanks for initiating this. With many issues around wikisource and  much
chance of learning from each other community it is right time we have a
separate conference dedicated for wikisource.

Please count me in for any help regarding organising the conference.

Regards,
J. Balaji.

Hi all,

this is great news - I'm really excited by the prospect of a Wikisource 
Conference in Warsaw!


WMAT has already had a long call with Nathalia to share our experiences 
from organising the 2015 edition and of course we are here to support 
the next conference as best as we can!


Cheers

Hi Ankry,

Thanks for taking up the initiative to organise the much needed 
conference. Wikisource is now a much more visible project in India 
compared to 2015, when we participated in the last conference. It's 
gaining importance within the Indian academic and librarian circles. 
We already have some partnerships in different parts of India and 
hopefully there will be a major partnership news coming soon regarding 
Wikisource .


Anyway, in this regard, I personally feel 2021 is bit far away. If 
this is not much a problem for WMPL or the user group, we can go for 
Autumn 2020 as it would be great for Indian communities to interact 
with the larger community and gain more knowledge at this vital time 
of growth. Please be assured, that any help needed from our side as 
Indian Wikisource communities and affiliates supporting Wikisource 
projects will be provided whenever needed.


Regards,
Bodhisattwa

Hi all,

As some of you already noticed, we were talking on Saturday not
only about Wikimedia Summit, but also about plans concerning
Wikisource Conference sequel. The first Wikisource Conference took
place in Vienna in 2015. Maybe, five years later, it is good time
to organize the next event?

The only way for this to happen is to receive a grant from WMF.
Recently, I have got a confirmation from my chapter that Wikimedia
Polska is willing to help us to apply for the grant and to
organize Wikimedia Conference in Warsaw as a fiscal sponsor
.
(AFAIK this is the same procedure that was applied to the
conference in Vienna).

What they need from us? We need:

  * to organize various commitees (Organizing Commitee, Program
Commitee, Grant Comission, etc); the discussion on Saturday
showed that there are people among us who want help in theese.
Of course the more people, the better
  * to decide *when we want the Conference*. There are two
possible dates: Autumn 2020 (likely September) and Spring 2021
(likely May); we need to decide which one is preferred and the
decision is a bit urgent as for the near term the deadline for
grant application is 10 February (however it is a realistic
plan). At the moment this question is crucial
  * to estimate how many people wish to participate in the Conference

The person supporting us from WMPL is Natalia.

We have prepared a short survey that should help us to find
response to the above questions. The survey is here:


https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe-0WGvjrt1UcHhAl-CMtNps85m28R22a6CFkai_cH86k44rw/viewform

Please, fill it if you are interested in participating the Conference.

Best,
