I think it's the mutual interest by both Sambad and the Odia Wikipedia community, I remember Asaf's data ( https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ijon/Content_gap )helped me to explain the gender gap in the content of Odia Wikipedia. I will share a learning pattern after the event :) > Will this collaboration focus on > the newspaper as employer of potential Wikipedians, or will there also be > an effort down the line to encourage the readers to follow the example? The event is mainly focused on improving the quality of articles related to Women on Odia Wikipedia, We hope the journalists will turn into Wikipedians and make it successful. There's an assurance from Ama Odisha, a unit of Eastern Media Ltd. that after the event they'll organise Odia Wikipedia editing camps in different parts of Odisha. > > Thank you, please feel free to ask more questions. > > Exciting! > > Lodewijk > > 2017-03-17 5:04 GMT+01:00 Sailesh Patnaik <[email protected]>: > > > Dear All, > > Inspired by BBC's 100 Women Editathon, The Odia Wikipedia community is > > organising an "100 Women Editathon" [1]in collaboration with the Sambad > > newspaper.
