hi, This film was one of the points on the agenda during the Mumbai meetup on July 20 which could not be done unfortunately. We hope that we can do it at the next meetup. warm regards, Pradeep ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Achal Prabhala &lt;aprabhala(a)gmail.com&gt; Date: 22 July 2011 13:00 Subject: [Wikimediaindia-l] Oral Citations project: People are Knowledge To: "Discussion list on Indian language projects of Wikimedia." < wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt;gt;, wikimediaza < wikimediaza(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; Dear friends, At the beginning of 2011, a group of us began working on a project to explore alternative methods of citation on Wikipedia. We were motivated by the lack of published resources in much of the non-Anglo-European world, and the very real difficulty of citing everyday aspects of lived reality in India and South Africa. We are now at a stage where the project is almost complete, and we'd like to share our work with the broader movement, especially within India and South Africa. There are three languages we worked within: Malayalam, Hindi and Sepedi. The project page documents the process and logistics employed, as well as the findings and results: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Oral_Citations A film made from the project is available here: http://vimeo.com/26469276 There have been discussions on oral citations for some time now within the language communities we worked with for the duration of the project. At this stage, we are really interested in *your* feedback, either on this list, or on the Discussion section of the project page. There are still some things to come, namely: - Better (high resolution) versions of the film on Wikimedia Commons with an open subtitle track for translation, in process - Updates on events, meetings and discussions held around the project (updated as they happen) - Updates on articles created in Malayalam, Hindi and Sepedi as a result of the project (updated as they happen) We would be very grateful to hear your feedback, and begin a broader discussion. Best wishes, Achal _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
