May 11, 2022 workshop[edit]

  • Around 12 people participated.
  • We first gave an introduction of how Web2Cit works and the Web2Cit ecosystem.
  • We then explained how to use Web2Cit. We started with the audience following along, but then we had to switch to just demonstrating, because we were running out of time.
  • Created at least:
    • 2 translation tests for 2 separate domains (main storage)
    • 2 translation templates for 2 separate domains (main and sandbox storage)
  • Lessons learned:
    • The introduction of how Web2Cit works and the Web2Cit ecosystem may be useless for newcomers to Web2Cit, who may be working with just one template per domain. We may simply point them to our pre-recorded videos instead.
    • Having the audience follow along takes a lot of time. For upcoming workshops where time may be limited, we may consider having someone share their screen, and have the instructor guide them.
    • It may be useful to reinforce that people should bring a problematic web source, and that they should have a Wikimedia account (to save configurations to their sandbox).
