Re: [Wikitech-l] Tech Talk: A Gentle Introduction to Wikidata for Absolute Beginners [including non-techies!]
I'd like to specially praise *the Turkish volunteer User:Basak* for creating the first *complete* translation of the subtitles for this 3-hour tutorial. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/TimedText:A_Gentle_Introduction_to_Wikidata_for_Absolute_Beginners_(including_non-techies!).webm.tr.srt Thank you, Basak! (if you find this talk useful, do consider contributing to the translation effort (from the complete English subtitles), or help recruit someone who can.) A.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Tech Talk: A Gentle Introduction to Wikidata for Absolute Beginners [including non-techies!]
Hello again. I'd like to let you know that thanks to Victor Grigas, the Commons video of this talk (link below) now has English subtitles, synced to the talk. This should make it easier to *translate the subtitles *to make this video useful for fellow Wikimedians in other languages. It's a very long tutorial, so this would be a significant effort, perhaps best taken by a group, or piece by piece. If you do complete the translation in any language, I'd love to hear about it.
