Audience

[edit]

Who are the people you want to introduce Wikipedia to?

[edit]

Try to be as specific as possible about this group.

In what languages do they search for information, online or otherwise?

[edit]

In what ways does this group communicate with each other?

[edit]

This can include services and apps in social media, mailing lists, physical spaces like conferences or lectures, or at specific institutions like at a library.

What are some reasons this group would use Wikipedia? How would they benefit from it, or what would they find useful?

[edit]

Think about what they would be interested in reading and learning about; does Wikipedia provide better access to information this group cares about?

Project idea

[edit]

What language Wikipedia projects will you promote to new readers?

[edit]

English

How will you communicate with new readers? Will you be communicating with them online, in-person, or both?

[edit]

Describe your idea to engage new readers. How might it be implemented? What will you tell people about Wikipedia?

[edit]

Think about the steps that might involved to make this idea happen, and what you might teach people about your experience or others' experiences using Wikipedia.
I think Google search results for a topic with Wikipedia on it's 1st page is the nice approach, which is already done. So job well done :)

How will you know if this project is successful? What are some outcomes that you can share after the project is completed?
