Part 1: Project and impact[edit]
1. Describe the implemented activities and results achieved. Additionally, share which approaches were most effective in supporting you to achieve the results. (required)
We started the implemented activities by having a team which prepared a list of articles for translation. This happened few days before the editathon. The link to the page was shared in the group with the participants and the general community members during the training and after the workshop. Follow-up communications was made more frequent to ensure that their contributions is within the scope of Art+Feminism and/or from the provided list. Through that it helps us in keeping the participants from creating overlapping or irrelevant articles. Additionally, there has been an improvement as to the number of articles each participant created in a short time and this is all thanks to the Content Translation Tool in addition to the team's effort for tirelessly explaining and demonstrating to the participants how it works and that makes the session so amusing and enjoyable for everyone. Finally, we added the new participants to our community group and introduce them as our new members.
