December</figcaption></figure> <p>The 2,5 years of block of access to Wikipedia in Turkey was lifted on January 15th 2020, on the birthday of Wikipedia. The wikipedians in Turkey were so happy to finally have free access to their favourite web site and in 2020 neither pandemic, nor any disaster could stop the user group organizing events and training, building partnerships much more than ever before. </p><p>A series of <b>presentations and trainings in universities</b> have started in two weeks right after the lifting of the block. The first edit-a-thon in the year was organized one month after the lifting of the block in Istanbul and was about editing articles on free software movement. It was followed by organising one <b>thematic edit-a-thon</b> organised in partnership with a different organisation every month. </p><p>Beginning in June, the activities continued under the "<b>Reintroducing Wikipedia To Turkey</b>" project funded by WMF. The project included the continuation of the training sessions in the universities, organising <b>local-editor meetings</b> and <b>introducing Wikipedia to GLAM institutions</b>. Another important development regarding the user group was the decision to form a <b>registered non-profit</b> to support the user group activities; and this was completed in July with the initiative of 7 members. </p><p>The first Wiki Loves contest in Turkey was also organised during the year: <b>Wiki Loves Earth- Turkey</b>. The number of photos uploaded during the contest reached 3649. According to us, this was because Turkish internet users saw this contest as an opportunity to demonstrate how they also are willing to share their knowledge and skills with the world. </p><p>Despite many uncertainties and difficulties experienced because the pandemic, achieving to organise so many activities, and building relations with so many contacts was also a sign of a warm welcome to Wikipedia. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc"/> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Spring_term:_Presentations_at_universities" data-mw-thread-id="h-Spring_term:_Presentations_at_universities"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Spring_term:_Presentations_at_universities"></span>Spring term: Presentations at universities<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Spring_term:_Presentations_at_universities"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Turkey/Reports/2020&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Spring term: Presentations at universities"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:2020-01-30-BaskentUn.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/2020-01-30-BaskentUn.jpg/220px-2020-01-30-BaskentUn.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/2020-01-30-BaskentUn.jpg/330px-2020-01-30-BaskentUn.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/2020-01-30-BaskentUn.jpg/440px-2020-01-30-BaskentUn.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1600" data-file-height="1200"/></a><figcaption>Başkent University Winter School</figcaption></figure> <p>Once the Wikipedia block was lifted on January 15th, our group members started to visit university campuses to make presentations about Wikipedia, other Wikimedia projects and open culture.

The event got good coverage on media and brought us another partner: <i>IMECE</i> youth platform. So, next month on the National Youth Day, we met with 25 young volunteers, to write about <b>social entrepreneurship.</b> Our partnership continued during the year with <b>Digital Transformation</b> edit-a-thon and <b>Sustainable Development Goals</b> edit-a-thon where UNDP Turkey representaitve also particpiated. </p><p>On the other hand, with the initiative of a group member another series of edit-a-thons began under "<b>Women in Red Online Edit-a-Thons</b>" title.

This had a symbolic value for "reintroducing Wikipedia to Turkey<i>. Museum officials shared the scheduled temporary exhibitions of the next year and we discussed what kind of activities could be made for developing the content in Turkish wikipedia related to the theme of those exhibitions and how to get image donations from the artists with the help of the museum.</i></li> <li><b>Library of Goethe Institute, İstanbul</b>. The librarians in this library have supported our community during the block by joining our online meetings. After the lifting of the block wikipedians have visited the library and discussed how wikipedins could use the source of the library more effectively and also how we could support the online activities of the library since it was closed to the public because of the pandemic.</li> <li><b>Istanbul Metropolitan Municipalities (IBB)</b>: After the increasing visibility of the user group on media particularly with the WLE Turkey contest, the Digital Media Department of IBB reached us. Istanbul municipality and its affiliates have very important libraries, museums and archives under their management; we have discussed how they could guide us in building relations with, organizing events and getting media and data donations from the departments and affiliates of the municipality. Upon their request, we have visited the department in person and gave training to department personnel training on editing wikimedia projects.</li></ul> <ul><li><b>Nilufer, Kuşadası and Kocaeli Metropolitan Municipalities</b>. In addition to Istanbul Municipality, we had introduced GLAM Partnership opportunities to those three municipalities all in different cities (Bursa, Aydın and Kocaeli). Upon the request, we made Wikimedia projects training for the personnel of related departments at Kocaeli like we did in Istanbul. We started to work on making an edit-a-thon at SEKA Documentation Center, Kocaeli; and making a wiki-project "Nilüfer'in Köyleri" (Villages of Nilüfer) by using the documentation made available by Nilüfer Municipality</li></ul> <ul><li><b>Turkish Language Association</b>. Our talk with the officials of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_Language_Association" class="extiw" title="en:Turkish Language Association">Turkish Language Association</a> (TDK), the official regulatory body of the Turkish language, was very positive.

Since the pandemic does not allow such physical meetups, regular online meetings where community members from different places could join were organised. Different formats were tried: informal chat and information-sharing; presentation by a community member for skill development; more structured meeting with invited guests and prize ceremony for wiki contest; meetings with the participation of potential partners. Meeting notes of each meeting is available here (in Turkish). <a href="https://tr.wikimedia.org/wiki/VikiSal%C4%B1_Bulu%C5%9Fmalar%C4%B1" class="extiw" title="wmtr:VikiSalı Buluşmaları">WikiTuesday Meetings</a> </p>    </div><noscript><img src="https://login.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAutoLogin/start?type=1x1" alt="" width="1" height="1" style="border: none; position: absolute;"></noscript> <div class="printfooter" data-nosnippet="">Retrieved from "<a dir="ltr" href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Turkey/Reports/2020&oldid=22068992">https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Turkey/Reports/2020&oldid=22068992</a>"</div></div> <div id="catlinks" class="catlinks" data-mw="interface"><div id="mw-normal-catlinks" class="mw-normal-catlinks"><a href="/wiki/Special:Categories" title="Special:Categories">Category</a>: <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Category:Chapters_reports/Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Turkey" title="Category:Chapters reports/Wikimedia Community User Group Turkey">Chapters reports/Wikimedia Community User Group Turkey</a></li></ul></div></div> </div> </main> </div> <div class="mw-footer-container"> <footer id="footer" class="mw-footer" > <ul id="footer-info"> <li id="footer-info-lastmod"> This page was last edited on 25 September 2021, at 16:05.</li> <li id="footer-info-copyright">Text is available under the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/deed.en">Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License</a>; additional terms may apply.
