Social gathering: language challenges with Norbert Wierzbicki from Ecolinguist
Join this session to have fun with other participants and learn more about different languages. Together with Norbert Wierzbicki, running the Ecolinguist Youtube channel, we will play various games related to languages: we'll see if people speaking mutually intelligible languages can understand each other, we'll guess what words and phrases mean in other languages, and more! This social event is open to all participants registered for the Celtic Knot Conference: regardless of the number of languages you speak and your fluency, you're very welcome to join. |

The Celtic Knot Conference is a gathering dedicated to the communities working on a minority language on the Wikimedia projects, as well as individuals or groups running projects related to languages within the Wikimedia movement. During the Celtic Knot, we want to offer the opportunity for all of these groups to present their work, give an update on ongoing projects, and share lessons learned that could be useful to other groups working on similar topics. The "News from the Language Communities" program consists of a series of short videos provided by the communities. The videos will be maximum 5 min long and pre-recorded, in the language of people's choice (English subtitles will be provided by the organization team). A selection of these videos will be presented during the live online program on July 1st, and all videos will be available online in the videos pool. Are you part of a group of editors working on a specific language? Is your user group or chapter involved in adding content on the Wikimedia projects in a minority language? Are you running advocacy programs, partnerships or editing campaigns? Are you running a project related to the Wikimedia projects, using content from the projects or encouraging people to contribute? Your contribution to the "News from the Language Communities" would be amazing! We are especially encouraging communities outside of Europe to participate. How does it work?[edit]In order to participate in the "News from the Languages Communities", you can send us a video presenting your project and what you have been working on over the past year. We encourage you to prepare this contribution together with your community, local group or other people involved in the project.
Guidelines and support[edit]In order to help you preparing your pre-recorded lightning talk, we compiled guidelines and tips on this page. Additionally, if you need advice or support to prepare, record or edit your video, feel free to contact Lea Lacroix (WMDE) (lea.lacroix
Please note that the active support phase for contributors will run from May 3 to May 24, so don't wait for the last minute if you need help! Timeline[edit]
