January Wikischool: Learn how to translate articles on Wikipedia.

What is Evening WikiSchool for seniors?
It is a series of regular, specialised workshops aimed primarily at seniors, especially graduates of the beginner (and advanced) Seniors Writing Wikipedia (SePW) courses.

What does the Evening WikiSchool offer?
It offers the opportunity to focus on developing the specific skills that a good Wikipedian needs to do their job. We will focus on techniques and tweaks that can be used in editing practice that are not covered in detail in the Seniors Write Wikipedia courses.

January’s Wikischool will focus on a frequently used tool that helps to prepare quality articles on the Czech Wikipedia – the Translation tool. If you know at least one world language (it doesn’t have to be English!), then you can take advantage of the features and functions of the translation tool. The translation tool (Content Translator) has some specifics and imperfections, which we will focus on in the practice-oriented Wikishop. We will also try out the basics of translating your article, which you can then publish on Wikipedia.

The online workshop – Evening Wikischool for Seniors: How to translate Wikipedia – will take place on Tuesday, 9 January 2024 from 17:00 to 18:30. You can sign up here, and find all the rest of the information and details there.

Don’t hesitate to register, as the workshop has limited capacity.
