Notre objectif en organisant Shesaid 2024 au Togo est de renforcer la présence et la représentation des femmes, en particulier des femmes africaines et togolaises, sur Wikiquote en français et Ewe. Actuellement, les citations féminines sont largement sous-représentées sur la plateforme, et celles provenant de femmes africaines et togolaises le sont encore davantage, exacerbant ainsi les biais liés au genre sur ce projet. Pour la deuxieme fois, nous allons organiser cette campagne She said au Togo afin de promouvoir les citations feminines et renforcer la capacité des contributeurs togolais sur ce projet wikimedia qui à ce jour est encore très peu connu de nos membres. Comme approche, nous travaillerons de concert avec les organisations telles que Wiki in Africa et les contributrices actives sur les questions du genre et sur le projet Wikiquote sur le continent. Pour cette édiiton, nous organiserons donc 5 jours d'activités dont 3 jours de formation et 2 jours de d'édithatons sur Wikiquote.

La planifiacation de ce projet touche 3 étapes à savoir : 1.Identification des sujets et citations à éditer : Nous mènerons des recherches approfondies pour identifier des femmes notables togolaises et africaines qui ont déjà des articles dans 3 versions linguistiques de Wikipédia (Français, anglais, Espagnol), afin d'établir leur notoriété pour créer une liste complète de leurs citations. 2. Formation de nouveaux contributeurs 3.Création de contenu via l'édithaton : Nous créerons de nouvelles pages sur Wikiquote en anglais pour chacune des femmes notables identifiées, en incluant des informations biographiques dans la section d'introduction de ces pages et en ajoutant des citations pertinentes. 4.Amélioration de la qualité : Nous examinerons et améliorerons les pages existantes sur Wikiquote en Français et initierons la version Ewé, relatives aux femmes togolaises et africaines.
