Re: [Wikimedia-l] fallout from 2018 Wikimedian of the Year announcement

Hi Farhad,

I'm very impressed with your successes so far.

My main concern is how much of this you seem to be doing by yourself. I
hope that you have a group of people who are collaborating with you so that
you don't feel responsible for doing everything personally, and that you
aren't putting yourself into personal financial difficulty due to the
amount of time that you're spending on Wikimedia activities.

Regarding which people would be good to invite to a conference, I think
that GLAM and educational organizations would be natural partners so I
suggest starting with them.

WMF might be willing to provide you with some advice and/or funding for
GLAM or education related work if you request it, although the wait times
for WMF "Rapid Grants" funding seem to have become lengthy, so I suggest
that if you want funding from that program that you should request it at
least two full months in advance and not rely on receiving it in time for
any particular deadline.

I'm glad to hear that you're participating in Wikimedia CEE and I hope that
the affiliates in that group can provide you with good advice.

Best wishes,

Pine

Re: [Wikimedia-l] fallout from 2018 Wikimedian of the Year announcement

2018-10-03 Thread Фархад Фаткуллин / Farkhad Fatkullin
Dear colleagues,

On Monday, our high school Senior User:Тимерхан & myself met with the First 
President of Tatarstan, State Councillor of the Republic of Tatarstan, UNESCO 
Special Envoy on Intercultural Dialogue  
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mintimer_Shaimiev where I received an unexpected 
offer to think about launching a Wiki-program on a publicly funded Tatar 
language satellite TV channel, and a request to prepare for a meeting with a 
group of regional ministers (tentatively end of October) and whomever I would 
like to invite if I can figure out how they can be of help in speeding up 
penetration of Wikimedia projects & respective skills into the mindustry of 
peopl having something  with respective fields. 

This was the outcome of a two hour long conversation with the 81 y.o. elder 
statesman was around Tatar Wikipedia, growing Wikimedia movement in the region, 
using it as a channel to promote knowledge about cultural heritage, lifelong 
open learning and other issues related to my upcoming presentation at CEE 
Meeting 2018 in Lviv 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_CEE_Meeting_2018/Programme/Submission/Wikipedias_in_the_languages_of_Russia:_Growing_multilingualism_online
 and lightning talks there.

The invitation came on the Friday afternoon, so I was a little tense over the 
weekend but we managed OK

Today Russian Wikinews published our report on 1st of October meeting with 
Mintimer Shaimiev
https://ru.wikinews.org/wiki/Минтимер_Шаймиев_встретился_с_татароязычными_викимедистами
See all pictures from the meeting among my uploads via 
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListFiles/Frhdkazan

The working title of "Preparing the population of Tatarstan and the Tatar 
speaking world for living in the Industry 4.0 Global Economy: What Wikimedia 
projects have to offer". 
I have not yet have the time to identify which ministries, departments and 
other organizations (Tatmedia, National Museum, National Library, Regional TV & 
Radio company, etc.) are worth to be invited, so here I would very much welcome 
your recommendation  — it's a balancing act as we are limited on the volunteer 
time to adequately support each of these players, but we certainly don't want 
to miss those capable of demonstrating interesting results relatively quickly.

Tatarstan Deputy Prime-Minister - Minister for ICT Roman Shaykhutdinov has 
today inquired about possibility of engaging myself to deliver lectures on 
Advanced Uses of Wiki (I guess it's best to engage volunteers with extensive 
experience of presenting at various Wiki-conferences, Russian-speaking ones 
first of all). As for the open to the public introductory level wiki-seminar 
about Wiki and related practical Use Cases from various countries about using 
it in Education, GLAM, Wikidata applications, etc. - with speakers connecting 
over the video-conference & simultaneous interpretation support - it's offered 
to be organized locally in an IT-Park in a downtown Kazan during the last week 
of November (I guess WMF staff would be best able to help me with identifying 
most appropriate Use Cases and international volunteers that were responsible 
for their implementation, plus we'd have to figure out the schedule for their 
connection & possible overall routing - we might have plenty of folks around 
the world to benefit from this video-conference, as well as professional 
Russian-speaking simultaneous interpretation of the presentations). Plus Roman 
invited local Tatar Wikimedians to include two Russian-speaking schools into 
the pilot run.

I would go about translating the above Wikinews into Tatar & English (as well 
as the report on 2018 Wikimedia Conference Russia 
https://ru.wikinews.org/?curid=185095 sometime next week — as I have to finish 
my presentation plan and slides for 2018 CEE Meeting shortly.

Regards,
farhad

Hi James,

The Arcadia Fund is Peter Baldwin and Lisbet Rausing's charitable fund, so
the answer is both (it's a vehicle through which they make their
donations).
