Telugu Wikisource Workshop
http://editors.cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/telugu-wikisource-workshop
<b>Recently, a Telugu Wikisource Workshop was conducted in Hyderabad between 22- 23 July, 2017</b>
<p>An introductory <a class="external-link" href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Events/Telugu_Wikisource_Workshop">Wikisource workshop</a> was recently held for Telugu Wikipedians in Hyderabad. This event was held in conjunction with the NTR Trust, an organisation working towards socio-economic change in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.</p>
<div>Wikisource aims to build a library of source texts as well as translations. The workshop held between 22- 23 July was conducted for both existing Wikimedians and those new to the movement. Prior to the workshop, Telugu Wikipedians were consulted and were asked to take part in the event and provide their support. The participants were taught the basics of Wikisource and encouraged to contribute to it. They were given a tutorial on the entire process from uploading the book to completing it as an eBook. They were taught important aspects such as copyright, Creative Commons licenses as this would help them select books to upload on Wikisource.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Says participant Sri Ramamurthy "I am contributing to Telugu Wikisource for a long time, regularly. I could learn how to do some important aspects of Telugu Wikisource like indexing a book and techniques like OCR in this event. This turned out to be a very useful event. As resource persons are from Telugu language and sessions were in Telugu, I could easily and quickly grasp things."</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ten index pages were created during the event and 193 pages were uploaded onto Telugu Wikisource after the event. The event had only two female participants and eight male participants. CIS-A2K hopes to make more of a concerted effort to bridge this gap in participation between males and females.</div>

http://editors.cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/how-it-came-to-be-wiki-loves-uniformed-services
<b></b>
<p align="center">
I'm <u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Krishna_Chaitanya_Velaga">User:
Krishna Chaitanya Velaga</a></u> from English Wikipedia;
fortunately and unfortunately my user name and my real name share the
same text. I have been contributing to Wikipedia and its sister
projects since December 2014. I work primarily on Indian military
history related topics and articles. Initially, I was focused on
creating articles rather than assessing them. My wiki journey can be
best described in two parts, before and after <u><a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Events/Train_the_Trainer_Program/2017">Train
The Trainer</a></u> 2017.</p>
<p>The latter part
of 2016 proved to be a critical period of my Wiki journey. I was
credited with my first good article, first featured A-class article
and list, first featured list and, several Did You Know credits on
English Wikipedia. Later on, I was awarded the “<u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Awards#Military_history_newcomer_of_the_year">M</a>ilitary
history newcomer of the year</u>” for 2016. I was the first
Indian to receive the award. Additionally, I was selected to be the
“Featured Wikimedian of Month for January 2017” by Wikimedia
India.</p>
<p>As of January
2017, I have been contributing for nearly two years, and as far as I
have observed the military history topic area of India is one of the
most neglected areas. With two well known military historians from
India, Srikar Kashyap Pulipaka <em>(User:StrikeEagle)</em> and Colonel
Ashwin Baindur [retd.] <em>(User: AshLin)</em> on a semi Wiki break, I
was left to be the only regular contributor. In an attempt to
encourage more Wikipedians to work on this area, Indian military
history work group emerged as an initiative by the <u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history">Military
history project</a></u>. The work group closing in on a year
since its inception, has more than twenty-five members at present. As
the founder of the group, I aspire to incubate the group into an
independent task force under Military history project. One of the
major problems I faced while working on the military history articles
was regarding images. Though the images were accepted on Commons,
they were rejected at advanced levels of assessment i.e. A-class
review, FAC, FLC etc. One of the primary reasons for the problem is
the unclear copyright statement presented on the official websites of
the armed forces and various uniformed services. I had been thinking
for a long while to resolve this issue and TTT provided me with the
path to finds a solution for this. Train the Trainer (TTT) is one of
the best initiatives by Centre of Internet and Society - Access to
Knowledge. It is a three-day residential program to enhance the
trainer in experienced and well established Wikipedians through the
length and breadth of India. Prior to TTT 2017, I have only been
involved in online activities of Wikipedia, predominantly
contributing to Indian military history topics. I hardly knew about
the offline community of Wikipedia i.e. the grant structure of
Wikimedia Foundation, conduction of edit-a-thons, meet-ups, program
affiliates etc. Not only this, but also the Wikipedian contacts I had
were very sparse. Though I was selected to attend TTT 2016, I could
not attend to academic constraints. During TTT, I had rich exposure
to the wider Indian Wikimedia community and that of Indic language
projects. TTT also cleared many of the misconceptions I had of
Wikimedia, some them include the use of Harvard referencing style,
importance of offline events, etc.</p>
<p><a name="_GoBack"></a>
Owing to the experience I decided to act on the problem. There is a
heavy need of images related to the uniformed services. So I
discussed my idea with Ravi Shankar Ayyakannu <em>(User:Ravidreams)</em>,
coordinator of Wiki Loves Food and Manager for Strategic
Partnerships in Asia under Global Reach Team. Initially, I thought of
naming it Wiki Loves Armed Forces, Wiki Loves Security Services etc.
But with an intention to widen the scope, it was named as Wiki Loves
Uniformed services. Once finalized, I started creating necessary
pages and templates on Commons. Simultaneously, I worked on forming
the core team of coordinators and judges. I chose Suyash Dwivedi
<em>(User:Suyash.dwivedi)</em> and Mourya Biswas <em>(User:Mouryan)</em>
to be the Coordinator and Assistant Coordinator respectively, with
myself as the Lead Coordinator. The jury included Col. Ashwin Baindur
[retd.], Diego Delso <em>(User:Poco a poco)</em>, Col. Ravi Shankar
Vasireddy [retd.] <em>(Off-community)</em> and Sirkar Kashyap Pulipaka.
After having done these tasks, I moved on to file a detailed rapid
grant application to the Wikimedia Foundation. The grants team was
very responsive and the grant was approved in a week. This initiative
gained good global support including the foundation’s staff, who
were happy to see a new <em>Wiki Loves</em> initiative budding.
However, till now there aren't as many images as expected. To
increase awareness about the program we’ve decided to implement a
new strategy of conducting photo walks with government permission.
Apart from that we’re also in contact with the Indian Navy to
donate their images to the contest. The deadline may extend for about
a month or so depending upon the stats. Personally, I see great
potential for this project, but the problem is one of Wikipedians'
response. I hope this initiative will be a great success and will be
taken up by fellow Wikimedians from others countries. I conclude by
thanking CIS-A2K for conducting innovative workshops and Wikimedia
India for their support to the project since its inception. I also
thank each and every unacknowledged finger behind this great
initiative.</p>

http://editors.cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/christ-university-wikipedia-education-program-internship
<b></b>
<p id="docs-internal-guid-0f6be479-11df-80e2-bfe1-1c86f83e058d" dir="ltr">CIS-A2K’s Wikipedia Education Program with Christ University, Bangalore is coming to an end after another year of intense classes, certificate courses and an internship at The Centre for Internet and Society. The internship activity in particular has successfully managed to engage students beyond classroom hours. The selection of 12 students for the internship program was based on their penchant for the language as well as their interest in the wiki world.</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">The internship was structured into three stages. Firstly, the students were asked to develop stub articles. The aim of this activity was for students to learn searching skills. As a result, over 1500 articles were developed with qualitative work.</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">Secondly, the students were asked to create new articles from scratch. They searched for the topic on the Wikipedia, ascertained whether the article exists or not and later researched further on the content of the articles. As a result, the students were able to create 1400+ articles</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">Finally, the students were asked to draft policy pages for their respective language Wikipedia. They went through the policy pages in different languages including English and were asked to create similar policy pages for Kannada Wikipedia.</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">Unlike previous years, the activities during the internship program were tailored to suit the individual capabilities of the students, taking into consideration the suggestions from community members. The students were of the opinion that in addition to rekindling their love for the language, the internship program also enabled them to develop their overall knowledge of various subjects. The students felt that their vocabulary and typing skills also improved. However, the students were of the opinion that they could have been taken a level or two higher from article writing and introduced to other Wikimedia projects and topics related to the overall movement. The CIS-A2K WEP Program hopes to incorporate these suggestions for the upcoming year while also trying to increase the number of days of the internship in order not to tax the students.</p>

http://editors.cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/asian-athletics-championships-2017
<b>Odia Wikipedians, in conjunction with Indian Athletics Federation and Sports and Youth Services collaborated to document the 2017 Asian Athletics Championships. Hundreds of photos were uploaded and new Wikipedia content added to inform the event’s fans. </b>
<p>The Asian Athletics Championships is an intra-continental sports event organized bi-annually since 1973. The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Asian_Athletics_Championships">22nd championship</a> was held in July at the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalinga_Stadium">Kalinga Stadium</a>
in Bhubaneswar, India, where 655 athletes from 41 countries
participated in 21 games. The Odia Wikipedia community worked with the
event organizers in different ways, to document the event on Wikipedia,
by holding edit-a-thons (editing workshops), to improve Wikipedia’s
content about the championships and releasing official photos of the
event under free Creative Commons licenses.</p>
<p>The original plan was for the Indian city of Ranchi, Jharkhand to
host the 2017 athletics, but plans changed 90 days before the event when
Bhubaneswar was selected as a venue instead. Preparing the Kalinga
Stadium and getting ready for the championships in that short period was
a challenge for the organizers. However, the state government of Odisha
stepped in to assist, and as part of that freely shared the event
website content under Creative Commons licenses.</p>
<p>The local Wikipedia community, along with the WikiTungi project in
Bhubaneswar, were invited by R. Vineel Krishna, the State Department’s
Director of Sports and Youth Services, to organize an edit-a-thon for
the Championships. The scope was to improve Wikipedia’s content about
the participating Asian athletes.</p>
<p>Before the event, existing Wikipedia articles provided little
information on the biographies and accomplishments of some of the
participating athletes. Odia Wikipedians collaborated with the Sports
and Youth Services Department of Odisha to bridge the dearth of
information.</p>
<p>Edit-a-thon participants <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Asian_Athletics_Championships_2017_Edit-a-thon">gathered</a> at the office of CSM Technologies, an event partner for the championships. Fifteen Wikimedians from Bhubaneswar and Puri <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiTungi">WikiTungi</a>, with some CSM staff members and new editors participated in the edit-a-thon.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;" dir="ltr">Kalinga Stadium,, Bhubaneswar/ CC-BY-SA 4.0/ Sailesh Patnaik</p>
The collection includes images of the athletes during their Heats,
Semi Finals, Final, and Medal ceremonies of all four days. 127 images
are used in 269 pages on Wikipedia in 27 languages, and many articles
added their first image from this collection. WikiProject <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red">Women in Red</a> used the images in many female athlete articles. The Odia Wikipedia community and the <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K">Centre for Internet and Society</a> are also planning to work with the <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Asian_Month">Wikipedia Asian Month</a> competition to use these images to illustrate Wikipedia articles they work on, in their next edition.<a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Victuallers"> Victuallers</a>, one of the volunteers of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red">Women in Red</a> project, identified athlete photos from the <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/category:Images_from_Odisha2017.games">games website collection</a> and used them to illustrate their articles. He has also created new articles of other participating female athletes.

<p align="center">Arpitha M. of India in action at the 400m hurdles event/ CC-BY-SA 4.0</p>
<p>The event started with a basic Wikipedia orientation session for new
participants. There was no Wikipedia article for the championships in
Odia language, so participants created it in addition to improving the
English Wikipedia article. Along with that, 10 new articles were
improved and created on both Odia and English Wikipedia. The 2017
Championships page on the English Wikipedia received over <a href="https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&start=2017-07-03&end=2017-07-09&pages=2017_Asian_Athletics_Championships">100,000 views</a> during the championships week.</p>
<p>“Wikipedia has been the one-stop source of knowledge for me,” says <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Impulsion_gods">Alankar Devta</a>,
an edit-a-thon participant. “It has helped me learn a lot and prepare
for competitions. This is the first time, I got a chance to take part in
any Wikipedia edit-a-thon. Apart from that, the articles about the
athletes taking part in this year’s Championships are of great help for
the readers who may want to search for the athletes with expectations to
find useful information about them.”</p>
<p>Wikimedia community members were offered passes to attend the opening
ceremony and take photos. We spent four hours taking photos of the 41
participating teams, athletes and cultural events. All were <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Opening_Ceremony-_22nd_Asian_Athletics_Championships">uploaded to Wikimedia Commons</a>. Nearly <a href="http://tools.wmflabs.org/glamtools/glamorous.php?doit=1&category=Opening+Ceremony-+22nd+Asian+Athletics+Championships&use_globalusage=1&ns0=1&projects%5Bwikipedia%5D=1">19% of the photos</a> taken at the opening ceremony are used on Wikipedia articles.</p>
<p>A major outcome of the edit-a-thon was releasing the content and
images of the championship’s official website under a Creative Commons
license. 286 images from the websites <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/category:Images_from_Odisha2017.games">were added to Wikimedia Commons</a>, of which 47.2% are used on Wikipedia in several languages.</p>
<p>“I have worked with the Women in Red project since it started,” says <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Victuallers">Victuallers</a>.
“Over the past two years, we have helped raise the percentage [of
female biographies on the English Wikipedia] from 15.5 to 17%. One of
the things that hold us back, though, is that women are less likely to
have images available. It’s, therefore, amazing to find that a major
athletic event has released hundreds of images with a CC BY-SA license.
Participating athletes are all notable and women are fairly well
represented. I have downloaded over 100 pictures and cropped group
photos to create portraits. We’ve been tweeting the new articles and
pictures on <a href="https://twitter.com/WikiWomenInRed">@WikiWomenInRed</a> and trying to encourage all to “one up” the Odisha people. It’s a great success and we need more people to follow suit.”</p>
<p>With such collaborative spirit from the Government institutes, the
Odia community is planning to get more content from Odisha under a free
license. The community has also partnered with the Bhubaneswar
Development Authority, to run a global edit-a-thon named <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bhubaneswar_Heritage_Edit-a-thon">Bhubaneswar Heritage Editathon</a>, for documenting the culture and heritage monuments of the city.</p>

http://editors.cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/dalit-history-month-2017-edit-a-thon-in-delhi-india
<b>Dalit History Month edit-a-thon was conducted in Delhi on 20 May 2017. Here is a report.</b>
<p>A Dalit HIstory Month edit-a-thon was conducted Delhi, India on 20 May, 2017. This event was organised by Whose Knowledge?. A member from the Center for Internet and Society, Bangalore, attended the event as a resource person. The history of Dalit movement, and their knowledge are not very-well represented on Wikipedia, and it is essential that attempts are made to bridge such gaps. This edit-a-thon was such an initiative. On 15 April, this year, an edit-a-thon was <a class="external-link" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Dalit_History_Month_2017#Berkeley.2C_USA_-_April_15">conducted</a> in Berkeley, US, and the Delhi edit-a-thon was followed by that.</p>
<p>14 editors participated in the edit-a-thon (not counting the resource persons). In the introduction speech Wikimedian and the primary co-ordinator of the event Inaaya explained the details the importance, scope and objectives of the edit-a-thon. This was followed by hands' on editing activities. A few participants were new to Wikipedia, and they created their accounts. Discussions took place to understand the gaps, and the difficulties. It was noticed that finding references to create or expand articles is sometimes a big challenge. Other than referencing, other topics such as Wikipedia manual of style, images, image license policy etc. were also discussed. Although it was a one-day workshop, the aim was to continue it after the event as well, so the participants were encouraged to continue editing. We have <a class="external-link" href="https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Delhi/May_Dalit_History_edit-a-thon/home">statistics</a> of last 1 month, and it shows that in this time period: 45 articles were edited, 11 articles were created, and more than 10 thousand words were added.</p>
<p>There are plans to conduct follow-up Wiki-events. A few students of Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, showed interest to form Wikipedia club in their campus. Although, the edit-a-thon was not very big in scale and size, taking such an initiative itself is challenging, and hopefully such initiatives will help reduce the knowledge gap on Wikipedia.</p>

Tallapaka Pada Sahityam, a
compilation of over fourteen thousand Telugu compositions is now
available on Wikisource. Tallapaka Annamacharya was a 15th-century
Hindu saint and composer who was renowned for singing in praise of
Lord Venkateswara. The Tallapaka lineage began with him, giving rise
to many bards in the Telugu language from the family. The Tallapaka
Pada Sahityam is a compilation of three generations of Tallapaka
poets: Tallapaka Annamacharya,
Tallapaka Peda Tirumalacharya, and Tallapaka China
Tirumalacharya. This compilation, published by Annamayya Library,
Guntur has been uploaded by the library on Wikisource as part of
their efforts to digitize the library archives. These lyrical works,
dealing with a variety of themes, are of immense literary and
cultural significance to Telugu speakers the world over.</p>
<p>Owing to the large
size of the file donated by the library, the works need to be
separated into 29 volumes. These separated files would be uploaded
and indexed on Commons as well. A Unicode version of the work needs
to be published and proofread in addition to their print version.
Telugu Wikimedians are also exploring the possiblity of re-licensing
recitations of the poems by literary connoisseurs. On 9 June, an orientation of these activities was conducted for long time Telugu Wikipedia, <a title="te:user:శ్రీరామమూర్తి" class="extiw" href="https://te.wikipedia.org/wiki/user:%E0%B0%B6%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%B0%E0%B1%80%E0%B0%B0%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%AE%E0%B0%AE%E0%B1%82%E0%B0%B0%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%A4%E0%B0%BF">te:user:శ్రీరామమూర్తి</a>, who has begun publishing Unicode text and proof-reading on Telugu Wikisource.</p>

<div>On the 60th anniversary of the movie Mayabazar, Telugu Wikimedians celebrated <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Mayabazar">Wiki Loves Mayabazar</a>, an event to commemorate the cult Telugu film <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayabazar" target="_blank">Mayabazar.</a> As part of the celebrations, an edit-a-thon of the same name was held at <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravindra_Bharathi" target="_blank">Ravindra Bharathi in Hyderabad. </a>Interestingly, the Cultural Department of Telangana Government sponsored the entire event. <br /><br />In
the Telugu speaking regions, there is a well-known appreciation of the
cinematic arts. Mayabazar, released in 1957 captured the imagination of
fans like no other film had before. Telugu Wikipedians decided to pay
tribute to the movie by improving articles and content related to it on
Telugu Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects.</div>
<br />The
edit-a-thon was held on 30 April, 2017 at the monthly Wikimitra Vedika
meetup of Telugu Wikipedians. A screening of the film took place
followed by discussions on references, citations, film studies and
articles related to the film. From 1 May 2017, the edit-a-thon took
place online. <br /><br />There were 15 participants of which only one member was female. Telugu Wikipedian, Kasyap hoped for more participation as this "is an interesting event."</div>

http://editors.cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/continuing-community-engagement-communities-of-interest-and-quarrying
<b>In telling the stories of Indian Wikipedians, we bring to you the story of Dr. Diptanshu Das, a doctor and avid Wikipedian, working with WikiProject Medicine who recently approached CIS-A2K with a technical request.</b>
<p> </p>
<p>CIS-A2K has always believed in continuing our engagement with the
communities and individuals we work with. This year in particular has
been special to us thanks to our Train The Trainer alumni steadily
achieving the goals they set out to achieve and continuing their Wiki
journeys with more vigour. It is especially significant to us when our
alumni come back to our resource and idea exchange platform to help develop their pet projects. For the first time, one such alumnus, <a class="external-link" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Diptanshu_Das">Dr. Diptanshu
Das</a>, a doctor by profession and avid Wikipedian approached us in April
2017 with a request to our technical team. He wanted to know the number
of articles that were tagged in both <span id="gmail-m_-3073168216211386188gmail-OBJ_PREFIX_DWT541_com_zimbra_url" class="gmail-m_-3073168216211386188gmail-Object"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:WikiProject_Pharmacology_articles" target="_blank">Category:WikiProject Pharmacology</a> and</span><span id="gmail-m_-3073168216211386188gmail-OBJ_PREFIX_DWT542_com_zimbra_url" class="gmail-m_-3073168216211386188gmail-Object"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:All_WikiProject_Medicine_articles" target="_blank"> Category:All WikiProject Medicine. <br /></a></span></p>
<p><span id="gmail-m_-3073168216211386188gmail-OBJ_PREFIX_DWT542_com_zimbra_url" class="gmail-m_-3073168216211386188gmail-Object">To
provide some context, WikiProjects are generally article development
projects undertaken by groups of editors on Wikipedia whose aim it is to
achieve goals on specific topics and subjects on Wikipedia. For
example, WikiProject Medicine manages and helps curate medical articles
on Wikipedia. Similarly, WikiProject Pharmacology states that it "</span>coordinates the development of Wikipedia articles and lists relating to the <a title="Pharmacology" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharmacology">pharmacology</a> and science of <a title="Medication" class="gmail-mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medication">medications</a>
and other pharmacology-related topics." Working to define clearer
guidelines for WikiProject Medicine of which he is a member, Dr. Das
intended to find out how many articles were listed under WikiProject
Pharmacology that were also tagged under WikiProject Medicine. As these two are closely related topics, the former being a sub-specialty of the latter, he felt it could cause an
overlap which would mean that most of the sub-specialty articles would get lost in the "parent" category i.e. WikiProject Medicine.</p>
<p>CIS-A2K ran Dr. Das' request on <a class="external-link" href="https://quarry.wmflabs.org">Quarry</a>, a public querying interface that lets one raise queries regarding databases in addition to managing them as an SQL(Structured Query Language) software would. Dr. Das had begun <a class="external-link" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Assessment#Medications">discussions</a> with fellow Wikipedians to get their thoughts on the matter and wanted to provide data-specific points but was unable to gather consensus on developing a guideline. However, when CIS-A2K reported back to him, he realized that the overlap was not as significant as he had feared. WikiProject Medicine had 34,475 articles, WikiProject Pharmacology had 10,721 articles; only 2002 of these were tagged in both. Dr. Das, while relieved, believes that sub-specialty tagging would go a long way in helping improve articles such as those of WikiProject Pharmacology, many of which are still in <a class="external-link" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Grading_scheme">Start and Stub classes</a>.</p>
<p>"While collaborating on wiki is always good, it is important that an organization like CIS contributes its expertize," he says. CIS-A2K's presence as an idea exchange platform hopes to generate debate and discussions in addition to the physical resources and support we provide to communities. Dr. Das is also of the opinion that domain knowledge experts could make a real difference to Wikipedia by engaging with or creating WikiProjects that are specific to their interests and collaborate with other free knowledge champions around the world. CIS-A2K has attempted to encourage such <a class="external-link" href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Work_plan_July_2017_-_June_2018">communities of interest</a> in the past so as to find an easier way to engage members of the general public and educational institutions as they are more likely to edit Wikipedia articles based on their personal hobbies and interests. </p>

Given the keen interest and enthusiasm of the participants, a follow up workshop was held on 3 April, 2017. <br /><br />This
workshop was attended by 30 participants who were trained on Wikimedia
projects such as Wikimedia Commons and Wikisource. They were given an
orientation on digitization and OCR tools as well. The workshop aims to
enable the training of resource persons who can go onto be employed at
libraries and museums in order to help with their digitization efforts.
The scanning of old encyclopedias in Marathi has also been proposed for
the Wiktionary project.<br />
<div><br />Participants were taught how to
upload books from the Internet Archive to Wikimedia Commons.
Subsequently,there was also a demonstration of transferring books from
Commons to Wikisource. There are two ways of doing this: the page by
page OCR process or
converting a complete book through <a href="https://goinggnu.wordpress.com/2015/12/28/announcing-ocr4wikisource/">OCR4Wikisource</a>.
As OCRS4Wikisource program runs only on Linux, limitation of machines
at the event was a hurdle in providing all the participants a hands on
experience. Therefore, the scanning activity could not be completed.</div>
