Connections
[edit]During the conference, I interact with several Wikipedians and others no-Wiikipedans participants. However, I have very learned from some of them as:
- With Carla, a Wikipédienne native of Peru. I learned to contribute on Wikidata;
- With Hugo Lopez from France, I learned to use LinguaLibre software.
- With Daniel Bogre from the USA, I discovered the Universe of WikiTongues.
These exchanges with all these people were very instructive.
Outcome
[edit]
- Shared Experience
- During the learning days Dominique Yao and I made a presentation on Wiki Education project of our country. Our presentation talked about the difficulties and lessons learned. We also learned a lot from others.
- During the days of the conference I was able to participate in several workshops.I was able to follow the workshops on Languages, Technology, Glam etc.
- It was very rewarding for me because these workshops gave me several ideas that I intend to apply in my country.
Benefits/Impacts
- I have since August with the team Glam Côte d'Ivoire, lauched in Côte d'Ivoire a request for collaboration for a pilot project of digitization with the archives of Parliament.
- Also, I prepare a project of local languages. This project will consist in putting under free license (Wiktionary, WikiTongues) while working with the software LinguaLibre the maximum of word in local language.
Anything else
[edit]It was my first time at Wikimania and I am happy to have participated. Congratulations to all the team and to the participants who made this event enjoyable.
