 Hello, everyone. So we are Miki and Ivana. We've come all the way from Serbia to tell you a little secret about how you can make your community healthier and better. So we have witnessed that during recent years there's been a significant shift of activities towards online way, doing which we have noticed that there's a lack of specific groups. So it actually inspired us to, when we reestablished our live interactions and events to shed light on those underrepresented groups. So basically we have checked with the strategic recommendation to provide for safety and inclusion and we wanted to address those groups of part of our community, the niches that were absent on our events. So basically we are going to tell you how we have done it, how we learned in the past years to do it, but also what is important here is it is a good way of functioning also for the communities that have a little or no resources meaning no staff members, no annual plans or even no budget for those projects. So we have six important topics that have to be addressed for those projects that we did. So first is you look at your complete community, local community, language community, and you check the needs or basically what are the problems that your community can face that you want to address those problems. So you would recognize the social injustice or basically you focus on this proactive approach towards people that are missing in your community or are underrepresented. So a very important part of it is to find people who think likewise. So you reach out to the NGOs that are part of it or that are dealing with important topic that you want to tackle and also government bodies that might want to start a collaboration on it. You would also need to establish cooperation in order to have or we advise to start a partnership in order to have long term partnership and long term projects about it. But also the most important part, we are your resources, we but also all of the wiki community, meaning find an affiliate with experience for cross cultural collaboration, meaning there is always some community that already did something like that or that is very willing to do something something as important as your work is. So the third part is to determine what are the project types that are specific to the target group that you want to deal with, meaning to consider the needs of the community. And for example in accordance to your budget or lack thereof, you can try to organize either editathons or microgrants, photo tours, anything that would be interesting. By the way, we will have examples of this, how we have fixed it in case you have any inclarities about it. So there is also a very important problem that you might face, which is lack of information regarding those topics. So as we have witnessed some groups, some important topics lack reference in history. So there is absence of online resource or books or articles. So be sure to have that prepared in order to engage the community and have already prepared references for those projects and also to determine accessibility regarding to the people who are participating on your projects. Check if it's better for them to access online, if they have special needs, if they prefer in-person events, safer environments, basically anything that would be best for that group to feel safe around you. Even I can continue. So the next thing is when you, sorry, when you have your project type, when you decide your target group, when you decide what group you want to deal with, what problems you want to tackle in your own community, basically we want to outline our project in terms of setting the goals and sometimes we are very enthusiastic in terms of those goals. We want to achieve a lot of things. We want to achieve it in such a small period of time, but we have to be realistic. We have to have realistic goals, realistic targets. We want to achieve, especially if we want to, if we are time limited, for example, if we got the grant and we have to do it in several months. So other than setting the achievable targets, we have to think about the metrics. So what are the relevant measures of success? And usually we have already some measures of success in our heads, but sometimes it's, we have to think outside of the box and think about what is actually giving the satisfaction to our participants and our new editors. And determining the milestones is a very important step, because this is an incentive for our project leaders, for our project teams that is making the project sustainable, making the project last, not just in that year that you're trying to realize that, but also in the following years. And this is laying the foundation for your future work. Of course, there's a lot of challenges and there's a lot of lessons learned so far, but lessons to be learned in the future as well. And because we are dealing with such sensitive topics, usually we are dealing with it, right? We are facing challenges in terms of vandalism. We are facing challenges in terms of safe environment for work. So what we want to achieve there is create the safe environment for new participants, for new editors. We want to make information accessible, not just by providing those information, but also providing the tools for specific groups to assess them. Because we are dealing with some topics, very specific topics. Maybe we won't have a lot of volunteers who want to deal with that. But that's why we can partner with other organization and use their own capacities, volunteer capacities or staff capacities to increase the interest for the topic. And all of this might affect the retention of new participants, especially if we are dealing with groups that are already facing a lot of discrimination, a lot of types of discrimination. That's why we want to create that safe environment for them to stay on the project, stay in our activities, in a lot of our future activities as well. And lessons to be learned and lessons learned already. And we want to invite you to share your own as well, is to prepare sources. Sources are sometimes the major obstacle in our activities because of the historical circumstances. We don't have enough sources about women, for example. That's why we reach out to some libraries and we say, okay, there's a lot of women there and a lot of sources. So combine those two and you face that challenge successfully. Also, provide motivational means, meaning giving barn stars or giving gift cards and awards. And this is something you can do with small amounts of financial resources and also resources in general. Mentorship is something that is really, really helpful. We do have a mentorship program on Serbian Wikipedia, but also we are trying to network and experience editors and editors who are new to the project and to maybe combine, as Carla mentioned, similar editors. We also have Wiki Senior program. So we're trying to connect them and there's a lot of friendship there, which is kind of really cool. And not just seniors, but also students, female editors. So we have this successful example of this female editor being Wikileberian, being senior, and being Wikipedian of the year on Serbian Wikipedia at the end of that year. So this mentorship is really, really important. If you have the capacity to provide a person of trust and safety, that would be great because this is the person who can help new people who are facing any kind of harassment, any kind of discrimination, any kind of skate speech. That person can provide support to the new editors, especially to do editors from underrepresented groups. And all of this being said, now we are trying to give you an example of how we did it. We'll try to present this in two examples. Then we'll try to also hear your thoughts and questions, but we do have some more examples if we still have time. So, for example, we dealt with a lot of issues regarding women topics. So there's two problems here, two issues that we want to tackle with. The first one is lack of articles of notable women in Serbian Wikipedia, but also lack of female editors, which is something that we're all facing, right? We're all talking about it at this conference as well. And the main challenge here is that we have poor accessibility to knowledge in terms of literature, in terms of sources that we want to use, relevant sources that we want to use. And we also have this challenge where Viki Community, Viki Core Community sometimes are not so eager to accept the relevance of those notable women because there aren't enough sources to provide those facts. So what we did is that we partnered with Swedish Embassy and organized together a Viki Gap. We partnered with Wikimedians of Republic of Serbska. And together we organized contests and editor tons, but also with Wikilibrarians. We are collaborating with this specific library, university library, Satozar Markovic, but they have a large network of library in Serbia. So a lot of those people are involved as well. So we want to encourage Viki Librarian women to get more involved. And our success here was that we have a lot of good quality activities, a lot of new female editors and also really successful She Said campaign. So we had almost 2,000 quotes on this new project. And this is something this project isn't so active in our community. So this is one of the successes as well. OK, so I would like to give you another example. For example, what we have been doing for past seven years already. Well, we have noticed that there is insufficient amount of LGBT plus topics on Serbian Wikipedia, as well as the community members. So we have tried contacting all the relevant organizations and some of the notable ones are civil right defenders. This is now an organization, but also our friends from other Wikimedia communities. And we have had successful well, positive answers of cooperation. So we have been organizing Wikilev's Pride in Serbia for quite some time. And usually it's a week long editathons editing seminar during Euro Pride last year. Also, there were photo tours organized always during the Pride marches. And our goals were to encourage the attendees to edit Wikipedia independently and in a long run, meaning giving them a safe space and also education on how to edit Wikipedia or participate in Wikimedia projects in any other capacity. The challenges that we faced are the overlapping of activities during the Euro Pride since there were a lot of events happening. But which resulted in not a big number of in-person attendees. Also, sometimes during our projects, there were deletion of articles that were deemed well, insignificant from some part of the community. But we are trying to fix that. And the positive news is that last year we had no vandalism detected on Wikipedia. And we had larger scope of online participants from the general Serbian Wikipedia community. So that is that are first of our examples. If there are any examples from your communities, we would like to hear them now. If there is something similar that you found a niche that you wanted to emphasize or help, we would be happy to hear about it. Do you have any any idea or do you have any question regarding anything that we said so far? But I would ask you, please, to come to that microphone near you. That one behind also is OK. Hi, I'm Lucy Schrader from New Zealand. We're Kit Tabapa National Museum. And we are still getting started on doing Wikibase projects that are actually interfacing with the community in significant ways. But we are hoping that after this, we will actually be working doing maybe some editor's funds and things like that with members of the Pacifica communities, including some who will be performing here during this event. So please do come on to that. But the main thing I wanted to say about that is, again, there are a lot of challenges related to actually getting hold of source material and that source material being appropriate for the community as well. And not just, for example, all colonial texts that are about them instead of from them. But in our position, one thing that we have the ability to do in something that I think a lot of claims are probably also open to doing if they get the idea is actually creating that source material because a lot of claims have blogs. They have ways of producing articles that can be citable sources. And so if there is information from the community that isn't already in a published source that could be brought together with, you know, a curator of the glam culture manager, parts of the community. And it should pull it either into a piece that then goes into the blog, becomes a citable source and then suddenly you've got material that can be used by the community for the community's goals. That's actually amazing and full support about it. I also have one news, which is in Serbia, we are currently having the organization of the LGBT or we call it Queer Archive. So that is a very significant source. Well, from the beginning, from the Yugoslav times, anything that matters to the LGBTQ plus community, we are happy to have that in one place preserved. And that would be something for the future that we can participate and get involved with. Yeah, I just want to add that we are also organizing activities to create those sources. For example, photo tours on Wiki Pride on Pride. So we have Wiki Love Pride project. So we are gathering those photos, but doing the digitization in glam program and using that using that materials for a lot of these activities. So we are combining our program activities on a lot of fields. So, yeah, this is important. And for example, I think that the best approach is to go to thematic organization that is dealing with specific programs. So we don't have the time, but we will show you. We did this as well. So dealing with problems that Roma people are facing and we are trying to contact those organizations that are actually having the materials about their culture, their music, their visibility in general. So I think we are right on time, but maybe some... OK, yeah, Vick. I just wanted to share some strategy. What we've been doing from Wiki Media Argentina is creating some collaboration not only with partners like organizations who are working with the community we want to target, but also with journalists. So during the Pride days, which is full of activities and people won't be able to edit because time is not that available, we create different conferences or talks where we were explaining to journalists and talking with journalists where they have their agenda on LGBT rights. What do we need them to put in news to provide information for our articles? For instance, if they were having an interview with an LGBT rights defender, just please, could you please provide where was this person born and when and which are the main organizations they were collaborating during their, I don't know, activist trajectory. So telling them what we do need to have that information to fill those little gaps, like a specific information was really useful because this we did it before the Pride march, like two or three talks about that. And these people was then covering that information, offering us the data we need for biographies, for instance. So after the Pride month, we created a new, I mean, we opened a new editaton and people who was in the first two talks they came to editaton and we had a lot of sources that were created in those months. So it was really successful. So I wanted to share that with you. Thank you. This is a great approach, really. We can really use it. Thank you all. Yeah, thank you.
