About the submission

[edit]
Title of the submission

Building Inter-linguistic Bridges

Type of submission
  • Lightning talk – Short 10-minute presentation
Abstract (up to 300 words to describe your proposal)

Articles on different language editions of Wikipedia tend to focus the most on content related to the countries or regions those languages are spoken, and understandably so. Broadening the scope of coverage, especially in smaller language editions, is of great importance. One of the ways this can be achieved is by collaboration with different linguistic communities to focus on content related to the target language or culture. I will showcase several cross-linguistic collaborations that our User Group (Wikimedians of the Levant) has initiated or taken part in, and will promote the increased collaboration.

Theme of session
  • Visions Forged: Charting Paths in Language Advocacy.
