Happy contributions! Tila Cappelletto (she/ela/ella) Senior Program Officer, Gender Organizing Wikimedia Foundation ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Florence Devouard <fdevou...@gmail.com> Date: Tue, Mar 19, 2024, 16:05 Subject: [African Wikimedians] ISA Tool and Women Rights Month : improve the images description in [[category:Women in Art]] To: Mailing list for African Wikimedians < african-wikimedi...@lists.wikimedia.org>, Wikimedia Commons Discussion List <common...@lists.wikimedia.org>, Wikimedia Mailing List < wikimedi...@lists.wikimedia.org> Dear friends A few days ago, in a diff article (1), we told you the story on how we improved the ISA Tool (2) during a co-organized Hackathon (3). Key outome is... we are happy to announce that a new version of the ISA Tool is now available on toolforge for you to use. Whilst the tool would still welcome your technical attention, we were able to fix critical bugs and to implement some improvements. After nearly a year dormant, ISA is back ! * What is the ISA Tool ? * ISA is a fun, multilingual, mobile-first *microcontributions* tool, that makes it easy for (groups of) people to add structured data <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Structured_data> to images on Wikimedia Commons. With ISA, you can choose a pre-defined set of images on Commons and then ask contributors to 'tag' these with multilingual structured metadata. Points are counted for each contribution, and therefore it is possible to organize 'tagging' or microcontributions competitions or challenges with ISA. Or you can compete against yourself :) ISA was originally built to provide better multilingual and structured descriptions of Wiki Loves Africa images (4). But it is also developed to be useful to all of the Wiki Loves X competitions, and eventually ended up being meant for all media files on Wikimedia Commons. More info here: (5) *Campaign #300* To celebrate both the relaunch AND Women's Rights Month, and to demonstrate how the ISA tool works, we are launching an ISA campaign about Women in Art. This is happening here : https://isa.toolforge.org/campaigns/300 Your contributions, small or big, are welcome to improve the category:Women in Art *Create your own campaigns ?* You are welcome to create your own campaigns (or join older ones). Just make sure to log-in and you are good to go. A piece of advice though... make sure not to create very big campaigns with thousands and thousands of images. Toolforge does not digest huge sets very well. 500 is ok. 8000 is ok. 200 000 images... is beyond its capacity. We are still testing and improving. If you see anything weird or broken, please report here (7) Best regards Anthere (1) the diff article : https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/03/13/the-triumph-of-wiki-mentor-africas-first-online-hackathon/ (2) the tool : https://isa.toolforge.org/ (3) the January hackathon : https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Wiki_Mentor_Africa_Hackathon_2024 (4) the tool page on Commons : https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:ISA_Tool (5) opportunity to remind that Wiki Loves Africa is happening right now : https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2024 (6) women in art campaign : https://isa.toolforge.org/campaigns/300 (7) phabricator: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/profile/3981/ _______________________________________________ African-Wikimedians mailing list -- african-wikimedi...@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe send an email to african-wikimedians-le...@lists.wikimedia.org
