== Background ==<br />
<br />
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the [[metawikimedia:Wiki_Society_of_the_Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_chapters|Wikimedia Chapter]] in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the [[metawikimedia:Open_Web_Day|Open Web Day]] project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170314034952/http://www.wikimedia.org.ph/wmph/Resolution:Recognition_of_Sinirangan_Bisaya_Wikimedia_Community Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC)], they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|1st]] and [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/2nd_Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons]].<ref>{{cite web|archive-url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506|url=http://www.philstar.com/cebu-lifestyle/2015/08/05/1484749/virtual-pool-free-knowledge-eastern-visayas|publisher=''The Freeman''|via=[[wikipedia:en:The_Philippine_Star|''The Philippine Star'']]|title=A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas|archive-date=2015-08-05|date=2015-08-05|last=Nazareno|first=Eileen}} - (A news article about the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.)</ref><br />
<br />
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.<br />
<br />
== Who we are ==<br />
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the '''Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines''' or simply the '''Hablon User Group'''.<br />
<br />
The Hablon User Group is '''not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation''' but is '''a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement'''.<br />
<br />
We are based in [[wikipedia:en:Manila|Manila]] and [[wikipedia:en:Tacloban|Tacloban]] in the [[wikipedia:en:Philippines|Philippines]].<br />
<br />
=== Objectives ===<br />
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_projects|Wikimedia projects]] through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] and other Wikimedia communities. <br />
<br />
Specifically, this group aims to:<br />
<br />
* Inform the public about the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_movement|Wikimedia movement]] and its projects by participating and conducting meet-ups, fora, conferences and other activities;<br />
* Encourage individuals, organizations, educational institutions and government units to contribute to Wikimedia projects by reaching out to them through meet-ups, fora, conferences, learning sessions and other activities;<br />
* Improve Wikimedia projects by adding content and editing existing information by conducting learning sessions, edit-a-thons and other activities;<br />
* Support the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] by promoting and participating in its projects, activities and other undertakings;<br />
* Reach out to other Wikimedia communities by supporting, promoting and participating in their projects and activities as well as collaborating with them by exchanging ideas and good practices.<br />

<br />
''Hablon'' is a word in Bisaya that means either "weaver" or "something woven." Filipinos, especially indigenous Filipinos, are weavers. As Filipino weavers use fibers and threads to illustrate the Philippines' culture in their textiles, Hablon User Group or HUG for short strives to interlace small bits of information to form knowledge and to make this knowledge accessible to everyone through Wikimedia projects.<br />

== Background ==<br />
<br />
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the [[metawikimedia:Wiki_Society_of_the_Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_chapters|Wikimedia Chapter]] in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the [[metawikimedia:Open_Web_Day|Open Web Day]] project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170314034952/http://www.wikimedia.org.ph/wmph/Resolution:Recognition_of_Sinirangan_Bisaya_Wikimedia_Community Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC)], they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|1st]] and [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/2nd_Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons]].<ref>{{cite web|archive-url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506|url=http://www.philstar.com/cebu-lifestyle/2015/08/05/1484749/virtual-pool-free-knowledge-eastern-visayas|publisher=''The Freeman''|via=[[wikipedia:en:The_Philippine_Star|''The Philippine Star'']]|title=A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas|archive-date=2015-08-05|date=2015-08-05|last=Nazareno|first=Eileen}} - (A news article about the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.)</ref><br />
<br />
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.<br />
<br />
== Who we are ==<br />
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the '''Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines''' or simply the '''Hablon User Group'''.<br />
<br />
The Hablon User Group is '''not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation''' but is '''a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement'''.<br />
<br />
We are based in [[wikipedia:en:Manila|Manila]] and [[wikipedia:en:Tacloban|Tacloban]] in the [[wikipedia:en:Philippines|Philippines]].<br />
<br />
=== Objectives ===<br />
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_projects|Wikimedia projects]] through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] and other Wikimedia communities. <br />
<br />
Specifically, this group aims to:<br />
<br />
* Inform the public about the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_movement|Wikimedia movement]] and its projects by participating and conducting meet-ups, fora, conferences and other activities;<br />
* Encourage individuals, organizations, educational institutions and government units to contribute to Wikimedia projects by reaching out to them through meet-ups, fora, conferences, learning sessions and other activities;<br />
* Improve Wikimedia projects by adding content and editing existing information by conducting learning sessions, edit-a-thons and other activities;<br />
* Support the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] by promoting and participating in its projects, activities and other undertakings;<br />
* Reach out to other Wikimedia communities by supporting, promoting and participating in their projects and activities as well as collaborating with them by exchanging ideas and good practices.<br />

== Background ==<br />
[[File:Hablon.gif|left|300px]]<br />
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the [[metawikimedia:Wiki_Society_of_the_Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_chapters|Wikimedia Chapter]] in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the [[metawikimedia:Open_Web_Day|Open Web Day]] project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170314034952/http://www.wikimedia.org.ph/wmph/Resolution:Recognition_of_Sinirangan_Bisaya_Wikimedia_Community Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC)], they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|1st]] and [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/2nd_Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons]].<ref>{{cite web|archive-url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506|url=http://www.philstar.com/cebu-lifestyle/2015/08/05/1484749/virtual-pool-free-knowledge-eastern-visayas|publisher=''The Freeman''|via=[[wikipedia:en:The_Philippine_Star|''The Philippine Star'']]|title=A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas|archive-date=2015-08-05|date=2015-08-05|last=Nazareno|first=Eileen}} - (A news article about the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.)</ref><br />
<br />
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.<br />
<br />
== Who we are ==<br />
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the '''Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines''' or simply the '''Hablon User Group'''.<br />
<br />
The Hablon User Group is '''not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation''' but is '''a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement'''.<br />
<br />
We are based in [[wikipedia:en:Manila|Manila]] and [[wikipedia:en:Tacloban|Tacloban]] in the [[wikipedia:en:Philippines|Philippines]].<br />
<br />
=== Objectives ===<br />
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_projects|Wikimedia projects]] through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] and other Wikimedia communities. <br />
<br />
Specifically, this group aims to:<br />
<br />
* Inform the public about the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_movement|Wikimedia movement]] and its projects by participating and conducting meet-ups, fora, conferences and other activities;<br />
* Encourage individuals, organizations, educational institutions and government units to contribute to Wikimedia projects by reaching out to them through meet-ups, fora, conferences, learning sessions and other activities;<br />
* Improve Wikimedia projects by adding content and editing existing information by conducting learning sessions, edit-a-thons and other activities;<br />
* Support the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] by promoting and participating in its projects, activities and other undertakings;<br />
* Reach out to other Wikimedia communities by supporting, promoting and participating in their projects and activities as well as collaborating with them by exchanging ideas and good practices.<br />
<br />
=== Members ===<br />
* [[metawikimedia:Special:CentralAuth/Jojit_fb|Jojit fb]] – Administrator in [[wikipedia:tl:Unang_Pahina|Tagalog Wikipedia]] ([[metawikimedia:Special:EmailUser/Jojit_fb|primary contact person for the group]])<br />

== Background ==<br />
<br />
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the [[metawikimedia:Wiki_Society_of_the_Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_chapters|Wikimedia Chapter]] in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the [[metawikimedia:Open_Web_Day|Open Web Day]] project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170314034952/http://www.wikimedia.org.ph/wmph/Resolution:Recognition_of_Sinirangan_Bisaya_Wikimedia_Community Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC)], they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|1st]] and [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/2nd_Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons]].<ref>{{cite web|archive-url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506|url=http://www.philstar.com/cebu-lifestyle/2015/08/05/1484749/virtual-pool-free-knowledge-eastern-visayas|publisher=''The Freeman''|via=[[wikipedia:en:The_Philippine_Star|''The Philippine Star'']]|title=A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas|archive-date=2015-08-05|date=2015-08-05|last=Nazareno|first=Eileen}} - (A news article about the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.)</ref><br />
<br />
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.<br />
<br />
== Who we are ==<br />
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the '''Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines''' or simply the '''Hablon User Group'''.<br />
<br />
The Hablon User Group is '''not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation''' but is '''a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement'''.<br />
<br />
We are based in [[wikipedia:en:Manila|Manila]] and [[wikipedia:en:Tacloban|Tacloban]] in the [[wikipedia:en:Philippines|Philippines]].<br />
<br />
=== Objectives ===<br />
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_projects|Wikimedia projects]] through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] and other Wikimedia communities. <br />
<br />
Specifically, this group aims to:<br />
<br />
* Inform the public about the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_movement|Wikimedia movement]] and its projects by participating and conducting meet-ups, fora, conferences and other activities;<br />
* Encourage individuals, organizations, educational institutions and government units to contribute to Wikimedia projects by reaching out to them through meet-ups, fora, conferences, learning sessions and other activities;<br />
* Improve Wikimedia projects by adding content and editing existing information by conducting learning sessions, edit-a-thons and other activities;<br />
* Support the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] by promoting and participating in its projects, activities and other undertakings;<br />
* Reach out to other Wikimedia communities by supporting, promoting and participating in their projects and activities as well as collaborating with them by exchanging ideas and good practices.<br />

== Background ==<br />
<br />
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the [[metawikimedia:Wiki_Society_of_the_Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_chapters|Wikimedia Chapter]] in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the [[metawikimedia:Open_Web_Day|Open Web Day]] project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170314034952/http://www.wikimedia.org.ph/wmph/Resolution:Recognition_of_Sinirangan_Bisaya_Wikimedia_Community Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC)], they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|1st]] and [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/2nd_Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons]].<ref>{{cite web|archive-url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506|url=http://www.philstar.com/cebu-lifestyle/2015/08/05/1484749/virtual-pool-free-knowledge-eastern-visayas|publisher=''The Freeman''|via=[[wikipedia:en:The_Philippine_Star|''The Philippine Star'']]|title=A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas|archive-date=2015-08-05|date=2015-08-05|last=Nazareno|first=Eileen}} - (A news article about the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.)</ref><br />
<br />
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.<br />
<br />
== Who we are ==<br />
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the '''Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines''' or simply the '''Hablon User Group'''.<br />
<br />
The Hablon User Group is '''not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation''' but is '''a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement'''.<br />
<br />
We are based in [[wikipedia:en:Manila|Manila]] and [[wikipedia:en:Tacloban|Tacloban]] in the [[wikipedia:en:Philippines|Philippines]].<br />
<br />
=== Objectives ===<br />
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_projects|Wikimedia projects]] through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] and other Wikimedia communities. <br />
<br />
Specifically, this group aims to:<br />
<br />
* Inform the public about the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_movement|Wikimedia movement]] and its projects by participating and conducting meet-ups, fora, conferences and other activities;<br />
* Encourage individuals, organizations, educational institutions and government units to contribute to Wikimedia projects by reaching out to them through meet-ups, fora, conferences, learning sessions and other activities;<br />
* Improve Wikimedia projects by adding content and editing existing information by conducting learning sessions, edit-a-thons and other activities;<br />
* Support the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] by promoting and participating in its projects, activities and other undertakings;<br />
* Reach out to other Wikimedia communities by supporting, promoting and participating in their projects and activities as well as collaborating with them by exchanging ideas and good practices.<br />

== Background ==<br />
<br />
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the [[metawikimedia:Wiki_Society_of_the_Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_chapters|Wikimedia Chapter]] in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the [[metawikimedia:Open_Web_Day|Open Web Day]] project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170314034952/http://www.wikimedia.org.ph/wmph/Resolution:Recognition_of_Sinirangan_Bisaya_Wikimedia_Community Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC)], they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|1st]] and [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/2nd_Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons]].<ref>{{cite web|archive-url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506|url=http://www.philstar.com/cebu-lifestyle/2015/08/05/1484749/virtual-pool-free-knowledge-eastern-visayas|publisher=''The Freeman''|via=[[wikipedia:en:The_Philippine_Star|''The Philippine Star'']]|title=A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas|archive-date=2015-08-05|date=2015-08-05|last=Nazareno|first=Eileen}} - (A news article about the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.)</ref><br />
<br />
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.<br />
<br />
== Who we are ==<br />
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the '''Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines''' or simply the '''Hablon User Group'''.<br />
<br />
The Hablon User Group is '''not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation''' but is '''a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement'''.<br />
<br />
We are based in [[wikipedia:en:Manila|Manila]] and [[wikipedia:en:Tacloban|Tacloban]] in the [[wikipedia:en:Philippines|Philippines]].<br />
<br />
=== Objectives ===<br />
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_projects|Wikimedia projects]] through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] and other Wikimedia communities. <br />
<br />
Specifically, this group aims to:<br />
<br />
* Inform the public about the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_movement|Wikimedia movement]] and its projects by participating and conducting meet-ups, fora, conferences and other activities;<br />
* Encourage individuals, organizations, educational institutions and government units to contribute to Wikimedia projects by reaching out to them through meet-ups, fora, conferences, learning sessions and other activities;<br />
* Improve Wikimedia projects by adding content and editing existing information by conducting learning sessions, edit-a-thons and other activities;<br />
* Support the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] by promoting and participating in its projects, activities and other undertakings;<br />
* Reach out to other Wikimedia communities by supporting, promoting and participating in their projects and activities as well as collaborating with them by exchanging ideas and good practices.<br />
<br />
=== Members ===<br />
* [[metawikimedia:Special:CentralAuth/Jojit_fb|Jojit fb]] – Administrator in [[wikipedia:tl:Unang_Pahina|Tagalog Wikipedia]] ([[metawikimedia:Special:EmailUser/Jojit_fb|primary contact person for the group]])<br />

== Background ==<br />
<br />
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the [[metawikimedia:Wiki_Society_of_the_Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_chapters|Wikimedia Chapter]] in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the [[metawikimedia:Open_Web_Day|Open Web Day]] project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170314034952/http://www.wikimedia.org.ph/wmph/Resolution:Recognition_of_Sinirangan_Bisaya_Wikimedia_Community Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC)], they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|1st]] and [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Philippines/Projects/2nd_Waray_Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons]].<ref>{{cite web|archive-url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506|url=http://www.philstar.com/cebu-lifestyle/2015/08/05/1484749/virtual-pool-free-knowledge-eastern-visayas|publisher=''The Freeman''|via=[[wikipedia:en:The_Philippine_Star|''The Philippine Star'']]|title=A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas|archive-date=2015-08-05|date=2015-08-05|last=Nazareno|first=Eileen}} - (A news article about the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.)</ref><br />
<br />
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.<br />
<br />
== Who we are ==<br />
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the '''Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines''' or simply the '''Hablon User Group'''.<br />
<br />
The Hablon User Group is '''not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation''' but is '''a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement'''.<br />
<br />
We are based in [[wikipedia:en:Manila|Manila]] and [[wikipedia:en:Tacloban|Tacloban]] in the [[wikipedia:en:Philippines|Philippines]].<br />
<br />
=== Objectives ===<br />
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_projects|Wikimedia projects]] through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] and other Wikimedia communities. <br />
<br />
Specifically, this group aims to:<br />
<br />
* Inform the public about the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia_movement|Wikimedia movement]] and its projects by participating and conducting meet-ups, fora, conferences and other activities;<br />
* Encourage individuals, organizations, educational institutions and government units to contribute to Wikimedia projects by reaching out to them through meet-ups, fora, conferences, learning sessions and other activities;<br />

The '''2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon''' was a day-long wiki editing event to improve the Waray Wikipedia and served as a follow-up to the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines/Projects/Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon|the first very first edit-a-thon event in the Eastern Visayas]] that was conducted last November 2014. The actual edit-a-thon was held at the Legislative Building, Tacloban City, Leyte on July 25, 2015. The edit-a-thon was organized by [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH), the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community and the National Press Club - Tacloban in cooperation of the Office of the Vice Mayor of Tacloban City. WMPH volunteers from Manila helped in assisting the participants on wiki editing. This event was solely funded by Wikimedia Philippines. Aside from the edit-a-thon, the project team had meetings with City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency Region 8, and Leyte Normal University.<br />
<br />
== Activities and lessons learned ==<br />
<br />
===Activities===<br />
<br />
:'''Pre-event preparations'''<br />
<br />
:On November 21, 2014, the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC) and Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) visited University of the Philippines Visayas Tacloban College (UPVTC) and had a mini-forum with the officials and students of the university. During the discussions, WMPH proposed to have an edit-a-thon at UPVTC. The officials of UPVTC were open to idea and urged WMPH to set a date and submit a request letter.<br />
<br />
:On March 28, 2015, during a WMPH Board meeting, WMPH Founding Member Jojit Ballesteros presented a proposal for the edit-a-thon at UPVTC in behalf of the SBWC. The WMPH Board approved the proposal pending final confirmation of the dates of the edit-a-thon. Unfortunately, the proposed edit-a-thon at UPVTC did not push through and Michael Ong, the SBWC coordinator and Project Lead of the Waray Edit-a-thon, tried to find other alternatives.<br />
<br />
:In June 2015, Michael met with Max Daquilanea, one of the participants of the 1st Waray Edit-a-thon in Calbayog, and they discussed the possibilities of having an edit-a-thon in Tacloban. Max connected Michael to Eileen Nazareno-Ballesteros, President of the National Press Club – Tacloban (NPC-T). The engagement was fruitful and Eileen agreed that edit-a-thon will be co-organized by NPC-T.<br />
<br />
:In the first week of July 2015, a letter was sent to Tacloban Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin requesting the edit-a-thon to be held at the vicinity of the City Hall. After the approval of the Vice Mayor, the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon was set on July 25, 2015 at the Legislative Building of Tacloban City.<br />
<br />
:'''Actual events'''<br />
<br />
:'''Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Tacloban'''<br />

<br />
:'''List of participants of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Tacloban City'''<br />
<br />

:This edit-a-thon was featured twice (July 18, 2015 and August 1, 2015) in Leyte-Samar Daily Express, a daily regional newspaper in Eastern Visayas, and in ''[[wikipedia:en:The Freeman (newspaper)|The Freeman]]'', a daily newspaper published in Cebu. The actual ''The Freeman'' article can be found here: [https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506 ''A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas''].<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting with the Mayor of Catbalogan City'''<br />
<br />
:On July 27, 2015, as arranged by Max Daquilanea, the project team went to Catbalogan City, the capital of Samar province for a scheduled meeting with its Mayor, Honorable Stephany Uy-Tan. The main agenda of the meeting was for future partnerships with the city government. The City Administrator, Dennis Cosmod, was also present in the meeting. The project team opened up the idea of having an edit-a-thon at the City Hall grounds. As advised by the City Administrator, the project team should submit a formal request letter for holding the edit-a-thon in Catbalogan.<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at the Philippine Information Agency Regional Office'''<br />
<br />
:After meeting Catbalogan Mayor Uy-Tan, the project team went back to Tacloban and visited the Region 8 Office of the Philippine Information Agency (PIA). Leonilo D. Lopido, one of the staff of PIA, is a member of the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. The project team discussed with Leonilo the possibility of the participation of PIA on future Wikimedia events in Eastern Visayas.<br />
<br />
:'''Presentation of plaque of appreciation to the Vice Mayor of Tacloban'''<br />
<br />
:On July 28, 2015, the project team presented a plaque of appreciation to the Honorable Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin at his office in the Legislative Building of Tacloban City. The team acknowledged the efforts of the Vice Mayor for providing a venue for the edit-a-thon. <br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at Leyte Normal University'''<br />
<br />
:The last place that the project team visited was the Leyte Normal University (LNU) where they met with Professor Voltaire Oyzon who is also a member of Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. Voltaire is an expert on the Waray language and has written a dictionary. They talked about the likelihood of conducting an edit-a-thon at the university that will focus on entering definitions in Wiktionary. Voltaire encouraged the team to make a formal request and agreement for the proposed edit-a-thon at LNU.<br />
<br />
=== Lessons learned ===<br />
:;What worked well?<br />
# Setting up a dialogue first to an organization, government agency or university will help establish future collaborations. The meeting with various groups also helped in gaining ideas and information.<br />
# The edit-a-thon was attended mostly by journalists that became possible due to partnership with the National Press Club. Since most journalists are prolific and very interested in writing, the edit-a-thon was able to achieve its goal of producing at least 30,000 characters of content. <br />
# This series of events helped in establishing partnership with these organizations: National Press Club Tacloban, City Government of Tacloban, City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency and Leyte Normal University.<br />
# The project lead was determined to continue the edit-a-thon despite challenges on getting a new venue. Because of his connections with some people, this project came into fruition.<br />
# It was good to have helpful partners that provided necessary facilities and participants.<br />
# One of the participants became active after the edit-a-thon and he edits not only the Waray Wikipedia but also other Wikimedia projects such as Wiktionary and the English Wikipedia.<br />
:;What didn't work?<br />
# The project team was not able to get UPVTC as the venue for the edit-a-thon that caused the delay of finalizing the date of the edit-a-thon. <br />
# Not all attendees participated in the actual edit-a-thon.<br />
# There was a problem with the Internet connection because initially, there were only one Internet router that can only accommodate five connections. This was solved when the project lead went home to get additional routers and Vice Mayor also provided an Internet router.<br />
<br />
:;What would you do differently if you planned a similar project? <!---Please also include if you would measure the success of the project differently --><br />
:If we are going to plan a similar project, the project team suggests doing the edit-a-thon at a university or any venue that has a computer laboratory with reliable internet connection and multiple IP addresses. Advising the participants to bring laptops is not 100% guaranteed that everyone will bring their own laptops and this may limit the participants to only those who can bring their own laptops.<br />
<br />
=== Learning patterns ===<br />
<br />
;Endorsement of two existing learning patterns<br />
<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Connectivity issues|Connectivity issues]] - During the first part of the edit-a-thon, there were connectivity issues because of insufficient broadband routers. Fortunately, the project team and the Vice Mayor of Tacloban provided additional broadband routers.<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Workshop size|Workshop size]] - The event attracted eighteen attendees but only fourteen participated in the event. This was a good thing because only two veteran Wikipedians present in the edit-a-thon. Thus, the ratio of participants per experienced Wikipedian was manageable.<br />
<br />
==Outcomes and impact ==<br />
<br />
===Outcomes=== <br />
<br />
:The main goal of this project is to increase contributions to the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, which includes creating and editing articles. Aside from writing articles in the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, the participants may also add content to other Wikimedia projects such as, but not limited to, uploading pictures to Wikimedia Commons and enhancing Waray-Waray-related articles in other language versions of Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
:The first goal is to have at least fifteen (15) participants attended the event. There were eighteen (18) persons who attended the event. Thus, this part of the goal was achieved although only fourteen (14) people who actually participated in the edit-a-thon. As for the number of characters contributed by the participants, it was achieved because participants contributed a total of 34,134 characters. The second goal is to have at least 30,000 characters contributed in the Waray Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. <br />
<br />
:This is how the project team knew about the number of characters contributed: Jojit Ballesteros, the facilitator of the event, has taken note of the usernames of each user. After the actual edit-a-thon, he counted all of the characters of each user through the features of MediaWiki, the software behind Wikimedia online projects. He made use of the "global edit summary" and the "recent changes" features of each project that the participants have been editing.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
:Aside from the eagerness of participants to continue editing after the edit-a-thon, they are also requesting to have similar activities in the future. In this regard, it can be said that they were motivated. There is also one person that the project team thinks was motivated because he continues to edit even days after the event.<br />

===Impact===<br />
<br />
''What impact did this project have on WMF's [[metawikimedia:mission|mission]] and the [[metawikimedia:Grants:PEG/Strategic_Priorities|strategic priorities]]? ''<br />
<br />
''How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The mere fact that all the participants are newbies, their edits during the event can be considered as an increase participation in Wikimedia projects.<br />
<br />
''How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:Because they are the native Waray speakers and some of them are literary experts, they are the ones who know how to improve the quality of the Waray-Waray-Waray Wikipedia. The literary experts have suggested better wordings of the articles.<br />
<br />
''How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The [[wikipedia:en:Waray-Waray language|Waray language]] is around 3.1 million speakers, which is the 5<sup>th</sup> most spoken language in the Philippines out of more than 100 languages spoken in the Philippines. The contributions of this edit-a-thon will potentially help distribute free knowledge in the Waray language and increase the reach of the Wikimedia movement to the Waray speaking people.<br />

The '''2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon''' was a day-long wiki editing event to improve the Waray Wikipedia and served as a follow-up to the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines/Projects/Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon|the first very first edit-a-thon event in the Eastern Visayas]] that was conducted last November 2014. The actual edit-a-thon was held at the Legislative Building, Tacloban City, Leyte on July 25, 2015. The edit-a-thon was organized by [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH), the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community and the National Press Club - Tacloban in cooperation of the Office of the Vice Mayor of Tacloban City. WMPH volunteers from Manila helped in assisting the participants on wiki editing. This event was solely funded by Wikimedia Philippines. Aside from the edit-a-thon, the project team had meetings with City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency Region 8, and Leyte Normal University.<br />

== Activities and lessons learned ==<br />
<br />
===Activities===<br />
<br />
:'''Pre-event preparations'''<br />
<br />
:On November 21, 2014, the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC) and Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) visited University of the Philippines Visayas Tacloban College (UPVTC) and had a mini-forum with the officials and students of the university. During the discussions, WMPH proposed to have an edit-a-thon at UPVTC. The officials of UPVTC were open to idea and urged WMPH to set a date and submit a request letter.<br />
<br />
:On March 28, 2015, during a WMPH Board meeting, WMPH Founding Member Jojit Ballesteros presented a proposal for the edit-a-thon at UPVTC in behalf of the SBWC. The WMPH Board approved the proposal pending final confirmation of the dates of the edit-a-thon. Unfortunately, the proposed edit-a-thon at UPVTC did not push through and Michael Ong, the SBWC coordinator and Project Lead of the Waray Edit-a-thon, tried to find other alternatives.<br />
<br />
:In June 2015, Michael met with Max Daquilanea, one of the participants of the 1st Waray Edit-a-thon in Calbayog, and they discussed the possibilities of having an edit-a-thon in Tacloban. Max connected Michael to Eileen Nazareno-Ballesteros, President of the National Press Club – Tacloban (NPC-T). The engagement was fruitful and Eileen agreed that edit-a-thon will be co-organized by NPC-T.<br />
<br />
:In the first week of July 2015, a letter was sent to Tacloban Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin requesting the edit-a-thon to be held at the vicinity of the City Hall. After the approval of the Vice Mayor, the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon was set on July 25, 2015 at the Legislative Building of Tacloban City.<br />
<br />
:'''Actual events'''<br />
<br />
:'''Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Tacloban'''<br />

<br />
:'''List of participants of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Tacloban City'''<br />
<br />

:This edit-a-thon was featured twice (July 18, 2015 and August 1, 2015) in Leyte-Samar Daily Express, a daily regional newspaper in Eastern Visayas, and in ''[[wikipedia:en:The Freeman (newspaper)|The Freeman]]'', a daily newspaper published in Cebu. The actual ''The Freeman'' article can be found here: [https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506 ''A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas''].<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting with the Mayor of Catbalogan City'''<br />
<br />
:On July 27, 2015, as arranged by Max Daquilanea, the project team went to Catbalogan City, the capital of Samar province for a scheduled meeting with its Mayor, Honorable Stephany Uy-Tan. The main agenda of the meeting was for future partnerships with the city government. The City Administrator, Dennis Cosmod, was also present in the meeting. The project team opened up the idea of having an edit-a-thon at the City Hall grounds. As advised by the City Administrator, the project team should submit a formal request letter for holding the edit-a-thon in Catbalogan.<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at the Philippine Information Agency Regional Office'''<br />
<br />
:After meeting Catbalogan Mayor Uy-Tan, the project team went back to Tacloban and visited the Region 8 Office of the Philippine Information Agency (PIA). Leonilo D. Lopido, one of the staff of PIA, is a member of the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. The project team discussed with Leonilo the possibility of the participation of PIA on future Wikimedia events in Eastern Visayas.<br />
<br />
:'''Presentation of plaque of appreciation to the Vice Mayor of Tacloban'''<br />
<br />
:On July 28, 2015, the project team presented a plaque of appreciation to the Honorable Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin at his office in the Legislative Building of Tacloban City. The team acknowledged the efforts of the Vice Mayor for providing a venue for the edit-a-thon. <br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at Leyte Normal University'''<br />
<br />
:The last place that the project team visited was the Leyte Normal University (LNU) where they met with Professor Voltaire Oyzon who is also a member of Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. Voltaire is an expert on the Waray language and has written a dictionary. They talked about the likelihood of conducting an edit-a-thon at the university that will focus on entering definitions in Wiktionary. Voltaire encouraged the team to make a formal request and agreement for the proposed edit-a-thon at LNU.<br />
<br />
=== Lessons learned ===<br />
:;What worked well?<br />
# Setting up a dialogue first to an organization, government agency or university will help establish future collaborations. The meeting with various groups also helped in gaining ideas and information.<br />
# The edit-a-thon was attended mostly by journalists that became possible due to partnership with the National Press Club. Since most journalists are prolific and very interested in writing, the edit-a-thon was able to achieve its goal of producing at least 30,000 characters of content. <br />
# This series of events helped in establishing partnership with these organizations: National Press Club Tacloban, City Government of Tacloban, City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency and Leyte Normal University.<br />
# The project lead was determined to continue the edit-a-thon despite challenges on getting a new venue. Because of his connections with some people, this project came into fruition.<br />
# It was good to have helpful partners that provided necessary facilities and participants.<br />
# One of the participants became active after the edit-a-thon and he edits not only the Waray Wikipedia but also other Wikimedia projects such as Wiktionary and the English Wikipedia.<br />
:;What didn't work?<br />
# The project team was not able to get UPVTC as the venue for the edit-a-thon that caused the delay of finalizing the date of the edit-a-thon. <br />
# Not all attendees participated in the actual edit-a-thon.<br />
# There was a problem with the Internet connection because initially, there were only one Internet router that can only accommodate five connections. This was solved when the project lead went home to get additional routers and Vice Mayor also provided an Internet router.<br />
<br />
:;What would you do differently if you planned a similar project? <!---Please also include if you would measure the success of the project differently --><br />
:If we are going to plan a similar project, the project team suggests doing the edit-a-thon at a university or any venue that has a computer laboratory with reliable internet connection and multiple IP addresses. Advising the participants to bring laptops is not 100% guaranteed that everyone will bring their own laptops and this may limit the participants to only those who can bring their own laptops.<br />
<br />
=== Learning patterns ===<br />
<br />
;Endorsement of two existing learning patterns<br />
<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Connectivity issues|Connectivity issues]] - During the first part of the edit-a-thon, there were connectivity issues because of insufficient broadband routers. Fortunately, the project team and the Vice Mayor of Tacloban provided additional broadband routers.<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Workshop size|Workshop size]] - The event attracted eighteen attendees but only fourteen participated in the event. This was a good thing because only two veteran Wikipedians present in the edit-a-thon. Thus, the ratio of participants per experienced Wikipedian was manageable.<br />
<br />
==Outcomes and impact ==<br />
<br />
===Outcomes=== <br />
<br />
:The main goal of this project is to increase contributions to the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, which includes creating and editing articles. Aside from writing articles in the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, the participants may also add content to other Wikimedia projects such as, but not limited to, uploading pictures to Wikimedia Commons and enhancing Waray-Waray-related articles in other language versions of Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
:The first goal is to have at least fifteen (15) participants attended the event. There were eighteen (18) persons who attended the event. Thus, this part of the goal was achieved although only fourteen (14) people who actually participated in the edit-a-thon. As for the number of characters contributed by the participants, it was achieved because participants contributed a total of 34,134 characters. The second goal is to have at least 30,000 characters contributed in the Waray Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. <br />
<br />
:This is how the project team knew about the number of characters contributed: Jojit Ballesteros, the facilitator of the event, has taken note of the usernames of each user. After the actual edit-a-thon, he counted all of the characters of each user through the features of MediaWiki, the software behind Wikimedia online projects. He made use of the "global edit summary" and the "recent changes" features of each project that the participants have been editing.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
:Aside from the eagerness of participants to continue editing after the edit-a-thon, they are also requesting to have similar activities in the future. In this regard, it can be said that they were motivated. There is also one person that the project team thinks was motivated because he continues to edit even days after the event.<br />

===Impact===<br />
<br />
''What impact did this project have on WMF's [[metawikimedia:mission|mission]] and the [[metawikimedia:Grants:PEG/Strategic_Priorities|strategic priorities]]? ''<br />
<br />
''How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The mere fact that all the participants are newbies, their edits during the event can be considered as an increase participation in Wikimedia projects.<br />
<br />
''How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:Because they are the native Waray speakers and some of them are literary experts, they are the ones who know how to improve the quality of the Waray-Waray-Waray Wikipedia. The literary experts have suggested better wordings of the articles.<br />
<br />
''How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The [[wikipedia:en:Waray-Waray language|Waray language]] is around 3.1 million speakers, which is the 5<sup>th</sup> most spoken language in the Philippines out of more than 100 languages spoken in the Philippines. The contributions of this edit-a-thon will potentially help distribute free knowledge in the Waray language and increase the reach of the Wikimedia movement to the Waray speaking people.<br />

The '''2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon''' was a day-long wiki editing event to improve the Waray Wikipedia and served as a follow-up to the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines/Projects/Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon|the first very first edit-a-thon event in the Eastern Visayas]] that was conducted last November 2014. The actual edit-a-thon was held at the Legislative Building, Tacloban City, Leyte on July 25, 2015. The edit-a-thon was organized by [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH), the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community and the National Press Club - Tacloban in cooperation of the Office of the Vice Mayor of Tacloban City. WMPH volunteers from Manila helped in assisting the participants on wiki editing. This event was solely funded by Wikimedia Philippines. Aside from the edit-a-thon, the project team had meetings with City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency Region 8, and Leyte Normal University.<br />

== Activities and lessons learned ==<br />
<br />
===Activities===<br />
<br />
:'''Pre-event preparations'''<br />
<br />
:On November 21, 2014, the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC) and Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) visited University of the Philippines Visayas Tacloban College (UPVTC) and had a mini-forum with the officials and students of the university. During the discussions, WMPH proposed to have an edit-a-thon at UPVTC. The officials of UPVTC were open to idea and urged WMPH to set a date and submit a request letter.<br />
<br />
:On March 28, 2015, during a WMPH Board meeting, WMPH Founding Member Jojit Ballesteros presented a proposal for the edit-a-thon at UPVTC in behalf of the SBWC. The WMPH Board approved the proposal pending final confirmation of the dates of the edit-a-thon. Unfortunately, the proposed edit-a-thon at UPVTC did not push through and Michael Ong, the SBWC coordinator and Project Lead of the Waray Edit-a-thon, tried to find other alternatives.<br />
<br />
:In June 2015, Michael met with Max Daquilanea, one of the participants of the 1st Waray Edit-a-thon in Calbayog, and they discussed the possibilities of having an edit-a-thon in Tacloban. Max connected Michael to Eileen Nazareno-Ballesteros, President of the National Press Club – Tacloban (NPC-T). The engagement was fruitful and Eileen agreed that edit-a-thon will be co-organized by NPC-T.<br />
<br />
:In the first week of July 2015, a letter was sent to Tacloban Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin requesting the edit-a-thon to be held at the vicinity of the City Hall. After the approval of the Vice Mayor, the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon was set on July 25, 2015 at the Legislative Building of Tacloban City.<br />
<br />
:'''Actual events'''<br />
<br />
:'''Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Tacloban'''<br />

<br />
:'''List of participants of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Tacloban City'''<br />

:This edit-a-thon was featured twice (July 18, 2015 and August 1, 2015) in Leyte-Samar Daily Express, a daily regional newspaper in Eastern Visayas, and in ''[[wikipedia:en:The Freeman (newspaper)|The Freeman]]'', a daily newspaper published in Cebu. The actual ''The Freeman'' article can be found here: [https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506 ''A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas''].<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting with the Mayor of Catbalogan City'''<br />
<br />
:On July 27, 2015, as arranged by Max Daquilanea, the project team went to Catbalogan City, the capital of Samar province for a scheduled meeting with its Mayor, Honorable Stephany Uy-Tan. The main agenda of the meeting was for future partnerships with the city government. The City Administrator, Dennis Cosmod, was also present in the meeting. The project team opened up the idea of having an edit-a-thon at the City Hall grounds. As advised by the City Administrator, the project team should submit a formal request letter for holding the edit-a-thon in Catbalogan.<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at the Philippine Information Agency Regional Office'''<br />
<br />
:After meeting Catbalogan Mayor Uy-Tan, the project team went back to Tacloban and visited the Region 8 Office of the Philippine Information Agency (PIA). Leonilo D. Lopido, one of the staff of PIA, is a member of the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. The project team discussed with Leonilo the possibility of the participation of PIA on future Wikimedia events in Eastern Visayas.<br />
<br />
:'''Presentation of plaque of appreciation to the Vice Mayor of Tacloban'''<br />
<br />
:On July 28, 2015, the project team presented a plaque of appreciation to the Honorable Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin at his office in the Legislative Building of Tacloban City. The team acknowledged the efforts of the Vice Mayor for providing a venue for the edit-a-thon. <br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at Leyte Normal University'''<br />
<br />
:The last place that the project team visited was the Leyte Normal University (LNU) where they met with Professor Voltaire Oyzon who is also a member of Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. Voltaire is an expert on the Waray language and has written a dictionary. They talked about the likelihood of conducting an edit-a-thon at the university that will focus on entering definitions in Wiktionary. Voltaire encouraged the team to make a formal request and agreement for the proposed edit-a-thon at LNU.<br />
<br />
=== Lessons learned ===<br />
:;What worked well?<br />
# Setting up a dialogue first to an organization, government agency or university will help establish future collaborations. The meeting with various groups also helped in gaining ideas and information.<br />
# The edit-a-thon was attended mostly by journalists that became possible due to partnership with the National Press Club. Since most journalists are prolific and very interested in writing, the edit-a-thon was able to achieve its goal of producing at least 30,000 characters of content. <br />
# This series of events helped in establishing partnership with these organizations: National Press Club Tacloban, City Government of Tacloban, City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency and Leyte Normal University.<br />
# The project lead was determined to continue the edit-a-thon despite challenges on getting a new venue. Because of his connections with some people, this project came into fruition.<br />
# It was good to have helpful partners that provided necessary facilities and participants.<br />
# One of the participants became active after the edit-a-thon and he edits not only the Waray Wikipedia but also other Wikimedia projects such as Wiktionary and the English Wikipedia.<br />
:;What didn't work?<br />
# The project team was not able to get UPVTC as the venue for the edit-a-thon that caused the delay of finalizing the date of the edit-a-thon. <br />
# Not all attendees participated in the actual edit-a-thon.<br />
# There was a problem with the Internet connection because initially, there were only one Internet router that can only accommodate five connections. This was solved when the project lead went home to get additional routers and Vice Mayor also provided an Internet router.<br />
<br />
:;What would you do differently if you planned a similar project? <!---Please also include if you would measure the success of the project differently --><br />
:If we are going to plan a similar project, the project team suggests doing the edit-a-thon at a university or any venue that has a computer laboratory with reliable internet connection and multiple IP addresses. Advising the participants to bring laptops is not 100% guaranteed that everyone will bring their own laptops and this may limit the participants to only those who can bring their own laptops.<br />
<br />
=== Learning patterns ===<br />
<br />
;Endorsement of two existing learning patterns<br />
<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Connectivity issues|Connectivity issues]] - During the first part of the edit-a-thon, there were connectivity issues because of insufficient broadband routers. Fortunately, the project team and the Vice Mayor of Tacloban provided additional broadband routers.<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Workshop size|Workshop size]] - The event attracted eighteen attendees but only fourteen participated in the event. This was a good thing because only two veteran Wikipedians present in the edit-a-thon. Thus, the ratio of participants per experienced Wikipedian was manageable.<br />
<br />
==Outcomes and impact ==<br />
<br />
===Outcomes=== <br />
<br />
:The main goal of this project is to increase contributions to the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, which includes creating and editing articles. Aside from writing articles in the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, the participants may also add content to other Wikimedia projects such as, but not limited to, uploading pictures to Wikimedia Commons and enhancing Waray-Waray-related articles in other language versions of Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
:The first goal is to have at least fifteen (15) participants attended the event. There were eighteen (18) persons who attended the event. Thus, this part of the goal was achieved although only fourteen (14) people who actually participated in the edit-a-thon. As for the number of characters contributed by the participants, it was achieved because participants contributed a total of 34,134 characters. The second goal is to have at least 30,000 characters contributed in the Waray Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. <br />
<br />
:This is how the project team knew about the number of characters contributed: Jojit Ballesteros, the facilitator of the event, has taken note of the usernames of each user. After the actual edit-a-thon, he counted all of the characters of each user through the features of MediaWiki, the software behind Wikimedia online projects. He made use of the "global edit summary" and the "recent changes" features of each project that the participants have been editing.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
:Aside from the eagerness of participants to continue editing after the edit-a-thon, they are also requesting to have similar activities in the future. In this regard, it can be said that they were motivated. There is also one person that the project team thinks was motivated because he continues to edit even days after the event.<br />

===Impact===<br />
<br />
''What impact did this project have on WMF's [[metawikimedia:mission|mission]] and the [[metawikimedia:Grants:PEG/Strategic_Priorities|strategic priorities]]? ''<br />
<br />
''How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The mere fact that all the participants are newbies, their edits during the event can be considered as an increase participation in Wikimedia projects.<br />
<br />
''How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:Because they are the native Waray speakers and some of them are literary experts, they are the ones who know how to improve the quality of the Waray-Waray-Waray Wikipedia. The literary experts have suggested better wordings of the articles.<br />
<br />
''How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The [[wikipedia:en:Waray-Waray language|Waray language]] is around 3.1 million speakers, which is the 5<sup>th</sup> most spoken language in the Philippines out of more than 100 languages spoken in the Philippines. The contributions of this edit-a-thon will potentially help distribute free knowledge in the Waray language and increase the reach of the Wikimedia movement to the Waray speaking people.<br />

The '''2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon''' was a day-long wiki editing event to improve the Waray Wikipedia and served as a follow-up to the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines/Projects/Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon|the first very first edit-a-thon event in the Eastern Visayas]] that was conducted last November 2014. The actual edit-a-thon was held at the Legislative Building, Tacloban City, Leyte on July 25, 2015. The edit-a-thon was organized by [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH), the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community and the National Press Club - Tacloban in cooperation of the Office of the Vice Mayor of Tacloban City. WMPH volunteers from Manila helped in assisting the participants on wiki editing. This event was solely funded by Wikimedia Philippines. Aside from the edit-a-thon, the project team had meetings with City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency Region 8, and Leyte Normal University.<br />

== Activities and lessons learned ==<br />
<br />
===Activities===<br />
<br />
:'''Pre-event preparations'''<br />
<br />
:On November 21, 2014, the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC) and Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) visited University of the Philippines Visayas Tacloban College (UPVTC) and had a mini-forum with the officials and students of the university. During the discussions, WMPH proposed to have an edit-a-thon at UPVTC. The officials of UPVTC were open to idea and urged WMPH to set a date and submit a request letter.<br />
<br />
:On March 28, 2015, during a WMPH Board meeting, WMPH Founding Member Jojit Ballesteros presented a proposal for the edit-a-thon at UPVTC in behalf of the SBWC. The WMPH Board approved the proposal pending final confirmation of the dates of the edit-a-thon. Unfortunately, the proposed edit-a-thon at UPVTC did not push through and Michael Ong, the SBWC coordinator and Project Lead of the Waray Edit-a-thon, tried to find other alternatives.<br />
<br />
:In June 2015, Michael met with Max Daquilanea, one of the participants of the 1st Waray Edit-a-thon in Calbayog, and they discussed the possibilities of having an edit-a-thon in Tacloban. Max connected Michael to Eileen Nazareno-Ballesteros, President of the National Press Club – Tacloban (NPC-T). The engagement was fruitful and Eileen agreed that edit-a-thon will be co-organized by NPC-T.<br />
<br />
:In the first week of July 2015, a letter was sent to Tacloban Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin requesting the edit-a-thon to be held at the vicinity of the City Hall. After the approval of the Vice Mayor, the 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon was set on July 25, 2015 at the Legislative Building of Tacloban City.<br />
<br />
:'''Actual events'''<br />
<br />
:'''Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Tacloban'''<br />

<br />
:'''List of participants of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Tacloban City'''<br />

:This edit-a-thon was featured twice (July 18, 2015 and August 1, 2015) in Leyte-Samar Daily Express, a daily regional newspaper in Eastern Visayas, and in ''[[wikipedia:en:The Freeman (newspaper)|The Freeman]]'', a daily newspaper published in Cebu. The actual ''The Freeman'' article can be found here: [https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/the-freeman/20150805/282342563556506 ''A Virtual Pool of Free Knowledge on Eastern Visayas''].<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting with the Mayor of Catbalogan City'''<br />
<br />
:On July 27, 2015, as arranged by Max Daquilanea, the project team went to Catbalogan City, the capital of Samar province for a scheduled meeting with its Mayor, Honorable Stephany Uy-Tan. The main agenda of the meeting was for future partnerships with the city government. The City Administrator, Dennis Cosmod, was also present in the meeting. The project team opened up the idea of having an edit-a-thon at the City Hall grounds. As advised by the City Administrator, the project team should submit a formal request letter for holding the edit-a-thon in Catbalogan.<br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at the Philippine Information Agency Regional Office'''<br />
<br />
:After meeting Catbalogan Mayor Uy-Tan, the project team went back to Tacloban and visited the Region 8 Office of the Philippine Information Agency (PIA). Leonilo D. Lopido, one of the staff of PIA, is a member of the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. The project team discussed with Leonilo the possibility of the participation of PIA on future Wikimedia events in Eastern Visayas.<br />
<br />
:'''Presentation of plaque of appreciation to the Vice Mayor of Tacloban'''<br />
<br />
:On July 28, 2015, the project team presented a plaque of appreciation to the Honorable Vice Mayor Jerry Yaokasin at his office in the Legislative Building of Tacloban City. The team acknowledged the efforts of the Vice Mayor for providing a venue for the edit-a-thon. <br />
<br />
:'''Meeting at Leyte Normal University'''<br />
<br />
:The last place that the project team visited was the Leyte Normal University (LNU) where they met with Professor Voltaire Oyzon who is also a member of Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. Voltaire is an expert on the Waray language and has written a dictionary. They talked about the likelihood of conducting an edit-a-thon at the university that will focus on entering definitions in Wiktionary. Voltaire encouraged the team to make a formal request and agreement for the proposed edit-a-thon at LNU.<br />
<br />
=== Lessons learned ===<br />
:;What worked well?<br />
# Setting up a dialogue first to an organization, government agency or university will help establish future collaborations. The meeting with various groups also helped in gaining ideas and information.<br />
# The edit-a-thon was attended mostly by journalists that became possible due to partnership with the National Press Club. Since most journalists are prolific and very interested in writing, the edit-a-thon was able to achieve its goal of producing at least 30,000 characters of content. <br />
# This series of events helped in establishing partnership with these organizations: National Press Club Tacloban, City Government of Tacloban, City Government of Catbalogan, Philippine Information Agency and Leyte Normal University.<br />
# The project lead was determined to continue the edit-a-thon despite challenges on getting a new venue. Because of his connections with some people, this project came into fruition.<br />
# It was good to have helpful partners that provided necessary facilities and participants.<br />
# One of the participants became active after the edit-a-thon and he edits not only the Waray Wikipedia but also other Wikimedia projects such as Wiktionary and the English Wikipedia.<br />
:;What didn't work?<br />
# The project team was not able to get UPVTC as the venue for the edit-a-thon that caused the delay of finalizing the date of the edit-a-thon. <br />
# Not all attendees participated in the actual edit-a-thon.<br />
# There was a problem with the Internet connection because initially, there were only one Internet router that can only accommodate five connections. This was solved when the project lead went home to get additional routers and Vice Mayor also provided an Internet router.<br />
<br />
:;What would you do differently if you planned a similar project? <!---Please also include if you would measure the success of the project differently --><br />
:If we are going to plan a similar project, the project team suggests doing the edit-a-thon at a university or any venue that has a computer laboratory with reliable internet connection and multiple IP addresses. Advising the participants to bring laptops is not 100% guaranteed that everyone will bring their own laptops and this may limit the participants to only those who can bring their own laptops.<br />
<br />
=== Learning patterns ===<br />
<br />
;Endorsement of two existing learning patterns<br />
<br />
# [[metawikipedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Connectivity issues|Connectivity issues]] - During the first part of the edit-a-thon, there were connectivity issues because of insufficient broadband routers. Fortunately, the project team and the Vice Mayor of Tacloban provided additional broadband routers.<br />
# [[metawikipedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Workshop size|Workshop size]] - The event attracted eighteen attendees but only fourteen participated in the event. This was a good thing because only two veteran Wikipedians present in the edit-a-thon. Thus, the ratio of participants per experienced Wikipedian was manageable.<br />
<br />
==Outcomes and impact ==<br />
<br />
===Outcomes=== <br />
<br />
:The main goal of this project is to increase contributions to the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, which includes creating and editing articles. Aside from writing articles in the Waray-Waray Wikipedia, the participants may also add content to other Wikimedia projects such as, but not limited to, uploading pictures to Wikimedia Commons and enhancing Waray-Waray-related articles in other language versions of Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
:The first goal is to have at least fifteen (15) participants attended the event. There were eighteen (18) persons who attended the event. Thus, this part of the goal was achieved although only fourteen (14) people who actually participated in the edit-a-thon. As for the number of characters contributed by the participants, it was achieved because participants contributed a total of 34,134 characters. The second goal is to have at least 30,000 characters contributed in the Waray Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. <br />
<br />
:This is how the project team knew about the number of characters contributed: Jojit Ballesteros, the facilitator of the event, has taken note of the usernames of each user. After the actual edit-a-thon, he counted all of the characters of each user through the features of MediaWiki, the software behind Wikimedia online projects. He made use of the "global edit summary" and the "recent changes" features of each project that the participants have been editing.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
:Aside from the eagerness of participants to continue editing after the edit-a-thon, they are also requesting to have similar activities in the future. In this regard, it can be said that they were motivated. There is also one person that the project team thinks was motivated because he continues to edit even days after the event.<br />

===Impact===<br />
<br />
''What impact did this project have on WMF's [[metawikimedia:mission|mission]] and the [[metawikimedia:Grants:PEG/Strategic_Priorities|strategic priorities]]? ''<br />
<br />
''How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The mere fact that all the participants are newbies, their edits during the event can be considered as an increase participation in Wikimedia projects.<br />
<br />
''How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:Because they are the native Waray speakers and some of them are literary experts, they are the ones who know how to improve the quality of the Waray-Waray-Waray Wikipedia. The literary experts have suggested better wordings of the articles.<br />
<br />
''How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The [[wikipedia:en:Waray-Waray language|Waray language]] is around 3.1 million speakers, which is the 5<sup>th</sup> most spoken language in the Philippines out of more than 100 languages spoken in the Philippines. The contributions of this edit-a-thon will potentially help distribute free knowledge in the Waray language and increase the reach of the Wikimedia movement to the Waray speaking people.<br />

<br />
The '''1st Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon''' was a day-long wiki editing event to improve the Waray Wikipedia and served as a follow-up to the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines/Reports/Annual_report, 2013#January|the very first Wikimedia event in the Eastern Visayas]] that was conducted on January 2013. The actual edit-a-thon was held at the Calbayog Convention Center, Calbayog City, Samar on November 22, 2014. The edit-a-thon was part of the 11<sup>th</sup> Maharlika Sunrise Festival. [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines|Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) volunteers from Manila helped in assisting the participants on wiki editing. This event happened through the cooperation between the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community, the Maharlika Artists and Writers Federation and the Wikimedia Philippines. Funding came from the Wikimedia Philippines. Aside from the edit-a-thon, the project team had meetings with University of the Philippines Tacloban College (UPVTC) and Global Voices. WMPH President Johnny Alegre who is also musician performed on stage on the concert night after the edit-a-thon. The concert was part of the said festival.<br />
<br />
== Activities and lessons learned ==<br />
<br />
===Activities===<br />
<br />
===='''Pre-event preparations'''====<br />
<br />
:In September 2014, after the success of the [[metawikimedia:WikiProject Pangasinan/2014 Pangasinan Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|Pangasinan Wikipedia Edit-a-thon]], former Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) Vice President Butch Bustria contacted the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia community, through its coordinator Michael Glen U. Ong. They explored the possibility of an outreach project in Eastern Visayas. Under Butch’s guidance and encouragement, Michael contacted Johnny Alegre, President of WMPH, and proposed an edit-a-thon in the Eastern Visayas.<br />
<br />
:Butch facilitated the very first Wikimedia event in the Eastern Visayas last January 2013. The proposed edit-a-thon served as a follow-up on the first event. After series of communications, the date for the event was set on November 22-23, 2014. A project proposal was sent to the WMPH Board for its approval. <br />
<br />
:As agreed with the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia community, there have been volunteers from Manila including Jojit Ballesteros who is also a veteran Wikipedian that helped in conducting the edit-a-thon since most of the expected participants are newbies. Michael Glen U. Ong became the Project Lead of the whole project. Jojit assisted Michael in preparing for the edit-a-thon. Since Jojit has experience in directing workshops and edit-a-thons, he also became Michael’s adviser for the event. Aside from Jojit, the other volunteers and part of the project team comprised of Johnny Alegre and Bel Ballesteros.<br />
<br />
:The original plan was to have an edit-a-thon at the Northwest Samar State University (NwSSU) and present Wikimedia projects to the faculty, officials and student leaders of the University of the Philippines Visayas Tacloban College (UPVTC) within the two days set in the proposal. Unfortunately, NwSSU declined the project team’s request to hold an edit-a-thon at their university, although, UPVTC welcomed the request for exploratory talks that was set on November 21, 2014. Michael sought for other possible venues for the edit-a-thon. He was able to contact Aimee Villas Adalla, one of the organizers of the 11th Maharlika Sunrise Festival at Calbayog City and they agreed to give Wikimedia a slot on their event on November 22, 2014. The Maharlika Sunrise Festival is a gathering of artists all over the Philippines. Since Johnny Alegre is also a musical artist, he was set to perform at the festival on the night after the scheduled edit-a-thon.<br />
<br />
:After everything was settled, the final proposal for the project was formally approved by the WMPH Board of Trustees on November 3, 2014. <br />
<br />
:A few days before the edit-a-thon, Eddie Avila of Global Voices contacted Michael and requested for a teleconference. Global Voices is an international network of bloggers, translators and citizen journalists and they are very much interested in the online works of Wikimedia. Since the WMPH President and other WMPH members would be together with Michael, the teleconference invitation was accepted and was set on November 23, 2014. Although this online meeting was not part of the project proposal, it became part of the project.<br />
<br />
===='''Actual events'''====<br />
<br />
====='''UPVTC meeting'''=====<br />
<br />
:On November 21, 2014, Johnny, Jojit and Bel flew to Tacloban City. They were greeted by Michael at the Tacloban Airport and went straight ahead at UPVTC. The team arrived at around 4:30pm at UPVTC. Prof. Joycie Alegre welcomed and introduced them to UPVTC Dean Dr. Anita Cular, the faculty, and students of the university. Dr. Victor Sugbo, a renowned literary artist, who is also a faculty member of UPVTC, attended the meeting. Bel Ballesteros served as the resource speaker for the presentation while the rest of the team assisted in answering questions from the audience. The setting was informal and the audience asked questions during the course of the presentation.<br />
<br />
:Here are some the points raised during the discussions:<br />
<br />
:# Their language should be referred to as "Waray" and it is neither "Waray-Waray" nor "Winaray." <br />
:# There is still no standard orthography for the Waray language.<br />
:# Dr. Sugbo raised the issue that some of his copyrighted works were being uploaded to Wikipedia without his permission. The project team assured him that any copyrighted works uploaded in any Wikimedia projects should and will be taken down.<br />
:# Dr. Sugbo also raised a concern about Wikipedia articles on biographies of some notable people who do not want their life stories to be known. He said that Wikipedia should ask permission to the said notable person before his or her biography can be published. The project team responded by mentioning that any person can have an article as long as the person passed the notability guideline of Wikipedia. In this regard, Wikipedians do not need to ask for permission to the said notable person. Nevertheless, the project team guaranteed that the community of editors exercise caution and include only material relevant to the person’s notability and avoid very personal biographies.<br />
:# Since Bel presented other Philippine-based languages Wikipedias, a faculty member who is an expert in Philippine languages pointed out that the Chavacano de Zamboanga Wikipedia should be referred to as Chavacano Wikipedia since the other two variants of Chavacano (Ermita and Cavite) were already extinct because there were no longer any speakers of that language in Ermita and Cavite.<br />
<br />
:After the presentation, Prof. Joycie Alegre was convinced that Wikipedia is a great project since it is a venue for exchanges of ideas as well as :distribution of free knowledge. In this regard, Michael proposed to have an edit-a-thon in UPVTC in the future and Prof. Alegre agreed to it. Michael will do the follow up for that matter.<br />
<br />
:As a token of appreciation, WMPH gave UPVTC a Wikipedia Offline DVD that contains more than 40,000 stable articles. Prof. Alegre also received a USB wristband, which contains information about Wikimedia. After the meeting, Michael briefly toured Johnny, Jojit and Bel around Tacloban City. The Tacloban leg of this project ended after Michael treated the whole project team to a dinner in downtown Tacloban.<br />
<br />
====='''Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Calbayog City'''=====<br />
<br />
:At around 8:30pm on November 21, 2014, the project team boarded a chartered passenger van going to Calbayog City, Samar. They arrived at the Almira Garden Hotel in Calbayog close to midnight.<br />
<br />
:In the morning of November 22, 2014, after eating breakfast, the project team went straight to Calbayog Convention Center, the venue of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.<br />
<br />
:Here are the highlights of the event:<br />
<br />
::9:30 am – Participants started to arrive<br />
::10:00 am – Michael Glen Ong delivered his opening remarks<br />
::10:30 am – Jojit Ballesteros gave his lecture about the basics of Wikipedia editing <br />
:::(Note: Snacks were given while Jojit delivered his talk.)<br />
::12:00 pm – ''Lunch break''<br />
::1:00 pm – Edit-a-thon started. <br />
:::Instead of individual effort on editing articles, the edit-a-thon became a group effort because not all participants brought laptops. The participants were divided to groups of five to ensure that a group has a laptop. Since this is the first edit-a-thon for Waray Wikipedia, Michael Ong, one of the administrators for the said Wikipedia edition, was not very much strict in terms of creation and editing of articles.<br />
::3:00 pm – ''Afternoon break''<br />
::3:15 pm – Edit-a-thon resumed<br />
::4:30 pm – Edit-a-thon ended and Jojit began tallying the contributions of each group.<br />
::4:55 pm – Jojit announced the top group of editors<br />
:::Group #1 who got the most number of characters edited won prizes. A special prize, a USB wristband, was given to Nemesio “Totoy” Baldesco for helping all the groups on their works. <br />
::5:00 pm – Johnny Alegre, Phil Harold Mercurio and Michael Glen Ong gave the closing remarks.<br />
::5:15 pm – Event ended<br />
<br />
:During the talk of Jojit Ballesteros, there were also questions asked by the participants and here are some of the points raised during the discussions:<br />
<br />
:# Locally, Waray-Waray means "nothing" and it should not refer either to the language or to the people. According to one of the participants, the term was popularized during the 1950s by Sylvia La Torre's song "Waray-Waray." Thus, it is just a recent terminology. Instead, the language should refer to as Sinirangan Bisaya. This is conflict with the stand of UPVTC, which they refer the language as “Waray.” In addition, based on the participants, meanings of words in Sinirangan Bisaya and Waray differ.<br />
:# Mr. Nemesio “Totoy” Baldesco, a renowned poet, asked if their work will be credited when they add content to Wikipedia. Jojit answered that all contributors in any given article will be attributed but since contributions are licensed free and there are numerous contributors in any given article, it is not practical to attribute (or credit) all contributors. When reusing content in Wikipedia, the link of the article must be indicated instead of listing down all contributors of that article. Jojit also added that the contributors of the Wikipedia article can be found in the “History” page of the article. <br />
<br />
:'''List of groups of participants of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Calbayog City'''<br />
<br />
:The participants were divided into five groups to ensure that every group has at least a laptop because not all of them brought laptops. The usernames of the group leaders were the ones used for entering their contributions. There were five persons in each group.<br />

:After the edit-a-thon, the project team went back to the hotel for dinner. At around 8:00pm, Johnny performed at Nijaga Park, which is near the hotel where the project team stayed. The performance was part of the Maharlika Sunrise Festival. His first performance was a jamming session with local musicians and then he sang “The Rain Song,” a song by Absolute Zero, one of his associated acts.<br />
<br />
====='''Teleconference with Global Voices'''=====<br />
<br />
:At around 9:00am on November 23, 2014, the project team contacted Eddie Avila of Global Voices through Skype at the lobby of the Almira Garden Hotel, Calbayog City. Here are some of the highlights of the said teleconference:<br />
<br />
:# Michael Ong discussed about the projects of the Sinarangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. He said that Wikimedia Philippines first visited the community in January 2013. He also said that the recently concluded visit at UPVTC and the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Calbayog City were both successful.<br />
:# Jojit Ballesteros discussed about the other Philippine-based languages of Wikipedia. Eddie is very much interested with the Chavacano Wikipedia because he comes from Latin America.<br />
:# Eddie invited WMPH to the Global Voices Media Summit, which will be held in Cebu City in January 2015. He requested for a representative from WMPH to participate in the panel discussion about Filipino Indigenous Languages in Citizen Media. Johnny said that he will discuss his request to the WMPH Board and let Eddie know if WMPH can send a representative.<br />
<br />
::The teleconference ended around 10:00am and after the project team had their lunch, Michael went back home to Tacloban. The rest of the team left Calbayog City at 6:50am the next day, November 24. There is only one Calbayog to Manila flight per day, and it leaves Calbayog Airport before 7:00am.<br />
<br />
=== Lessons learned ===<br />
:;What worked well?<br />
# Setting up a dialogue first to an organization or university will help establish future collaborations as in the case of the UPVTC meeting. The meeting also helped in gaining ideas and information from the UPVTC faculty and officials.<br />
# During the edit-a-thon, everyone was able to collaborate with each other and became familiar on wiki editing especially the literary experts such as Totoy Baldesco who helped in grammar and correct usage of Waray words while other more technically inclined participants typed in their work in wiki syntax. <br />
# This series of events helped in establishing partnership with three organizations: UPVTC, Maharlika Sunrise Festival organizers and Global Voices.<br />
# The project team was flexible and able to change the process of the edit-a-thon after they learned that only few people brought laptops. Instead of individual works, the participants were divided into groups. The project team was also able to find an alternative partner for the edit-a-thon. <br />
:;What didn't work?<br />
# The project team was not able to get Northwest Samar State University as the venue for the edit-a-thon that caused the delay of finalizing the project proposal. This could have been avoided if the project team ensures the final agreement from the partner organization.<br />
# Not all participants brought laptops despite announcement given to bring laptops.<br />
# There were 43 people registered for the event but only 27 showed up. There was excess food because the lunch and snacks meals were pre-ordered according to the number of registered participants. The excess could have been avoided if the project team counted the number of actual participants and volunteers first before ordering the food. Even with this, the food was not wasted because the participants were encouraged to eat as much as they could and the leftovers served as dinner for the project team.<br />
<br />
:;What would you do differently if you planned a similar project? <!---Please also include if you would measure the success of the project differently --><br />
:If we are going to plan a similar project, the project team suggests doing the edit-a-thon at a university or any venue that has a computer laboratory with reliable internet connection and multiple IP addresses. Advising the participants to bring laptops is not 100% guaranteed that everyone will bring their own laptops and this may limit the participants to only those who can bring their own laptops.<br />
<br />
=== Learning patterns ===<br />
;Endorsement of two existing learning patterns<br />
<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Connectivity issues|Connectivity issues]] - During the edit-a-thon, there were connectivity issues because not all telecommunication broadband signals are working. Fortunately, the project team brought broadband devices that connect to all telecommunication companies with broadband services. It is also a good thing that some participants brought their own broadband devices. The connectivity issue was resolved because of the preparedness of the project team.<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Bringing your students to edit-a-thons|Bringing your students to edit-a-thons]] – The project team was not able to get NwSSU as the venue for edit-a-thon but Phil Harold Mercurio, one of the Professors at NwSSU brought his students in the edit-a-thon and helped his students learn the basics of Wikipedia editing.<br />
<br />
==Outcomes and impact ==<br />
<br />
===Outcomes=== <br />
The main goal of this project is to increase contributions to the Waray Wikipedia, which includes creating and editing articles. Aside from writing articles in the Waray Wikipedia, the participants may also add content to other Wikimedia projects such as, but not limited to, uploading pictures to Wikimedia Commons and enhancing Waray-related articles in other language versions of Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
There were twenty-seven (27) persons who attended the event. During the actual edit-a-thon, only twenty-five (25) persons participated after they were grouped into five. This part of the goal was fully achieved. As for the number of characters contributed by the participants, it was not 100% achieved. Only 24,680 characters contributed by the five groups. The target number of contributions is 30,000 characters and thus only 82% of the target was achieved. Nevertheless, the project team considers this as a success because despite the limited number of resources, the participants were able to contribute a significant number of characters in Wikipedia. As a whole, the project was successful because it did not only focus at the edit-a-thon but also with partnering with organizations that produced positive results.<br />
<br />
This is how the project team knew about the number of characters contributed: Jojit Ballesteros, the facilitator of the event, has taken note of the usernames of each leader of the group. After the actual edit-a-thon, he counted all of the characters of each group through the “global edit summary” and the “recent changes” of each project that the participants have been through.<br />

<br />
Aside from the eagerness of participants to continue editing after the edit-a-thon, they are also requesting to have similar activities in the future. In this regard, it can be said that they were motivated.<br />

''How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The mere fact that all the participants are newbies, their edits during the event can be considered as an increase participation in Wikimedia projects.<br />
<br />
''How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:Because they are the native Waray speakers and some of them are literary experts, they are the ones who know how to improve the quality of the Waray Wikipedia. The literary experts have suggested better wordings of the articles.<br />
<br />
''How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The [[wikipedia:en:Waray-Waray language|Waray language]] is around 3.1 million speakers, which is the 5th most spoken language in the Philippines out of more than 100 languages spoken in the Philippines. The contributions of this edit-a-thon will potentially help distribute free knowledge in the Waray language and increase the reach of the Wikimedia movement to the Waray speaking people.<br />

<br />
The '''1st Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon''' was a day-long wiki editing event to improve the Waray Wikipedia and served as a follow-up to the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines/Reports/Annual_report, 2013#January|the very first Wikimedia event in the Eastern Visayas]] that was conducted on January 2013. The actual edit-a-thon was held at the Calbayog Convention Center, Calbayog City, Samar on November 22, 2014. The edit-a-thon was part of the 11<sup>th</sup> Maharlika Sunrise Festival. [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) volunteers from Manila helped in assisting the participants on wiki editing. This event happened through the cooperation between the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community, the Maharlika Artists and Writers Federation and the Wikimedia Philippines. Funding came from the Wikimedia Philippines. Aside from the edit-a-thon, the project team had meetings with University of the Philippines Tacloban College (UPVTC) and Global Voices. WMPH President Johnny Alegre who is also musician performed on stage on the concert night after the edit-a-thon. The concert was part of the said festival.<br />

== Activities and lessons learned ==<br />
<br />
===Activities===<br />
<br />
===='''Pre-event preparations'''====<br />
<br />
:In September 2014, after the success of the [[metawikimedia:WikiProject Pangasinan/2014 Pangasinan Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|Pangasinan Wikipedia Edit-a-thon]], former Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) Vice President Butch Bustria contacted the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia community, through its coordinator Michael Glen U. Ong. They explored the possibility of an outreach project in Eastern Visayas. Under Butch’s guidance and encouragement, Michael contacted Johnny Alegre, President of WMPH, and proposed an edit-a-thon in the Eastern Visayas.<br />
<br />
:Butch facilitated the very first Wikimedia event in the Eastern Visayas last January 2013. The proposed edit-a-thon served as a follow-up on the first event. After series of communications, the date for the event was set on November 22-23, 2014. A project proposal was sent to the WMPH Board for its approval. <br />
<br />
:As agreed with the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia community, there have been volunteers from Manila including Jojit Ballesteros who is also a veteran Wikipedian that helped in conducting the edit-a-thon since most of the expected participants are newbies. Michael Glen U. Ong became the Project Lead of the whole project. Jojit assisted Michael in preparing for the edit-a-thon. Since Jojit has experience in directing workshops and edit-a-thons, he also became Michael’s adviser for the event. Aside from Jojit, the other volunteers and part of the project team comprised of Johnny Alegre and Bel Ballesteros.<br />
<br />
:The original plan was to have an edit-a-thon at the Northwest Samar State University (NwSSU) and present Wikimedia projects to the faculty, officials and student leaders of the University of the Philippines Visayas Tacloban College (UPVTC) within the two days set in the proposal. Unfortunately, NwSSU declined the project team’s request to hold an edit-a-thon at their university, although, UPVTC welcomed the request for exploratory talks that was set on November 21, 2014. Michael sought for other possible venues for the edit-a-thon. He was able to contact Aimee Villas Adalla, one of the organizers of the 11th Maharlika Sunrise Festival at Calbayog City and they agreed to give Wikimedia a slot on their event on November 22, 2014. The Maharlika Sunrise Festival is a gathering of artists all over the Philippines. Since Johnny Alegre is also a musical artist, he was set to perform at the festival on the night after the scheduled edit-a-thon.<br />
<br />
:After everything was settled, the final proposal for the project was formally approved by the WMPH Board of Trustees on November 3, 2014. <br />
<br />
:A few days before the edit-a-thon, Eddie Avila of Global Voices contacted Michael and requested for a teleconference. Global Voices is an international network of bloggers, translators and citizen journalists and they are very much interested in the online works of Wikimedia. Since the WMPH President and other WMPH members would be together with Michael, the teleconference invitation was accepted and was set on November 23, 2014. Although this online meeting was not part of the project proposal, it became part of the project.<br />
<br />
===='''Actual events'''====<br />
<br />
====='''UPVTC meeting'''=====<br />
<br />
:On November 21, 2014, Johnny, Jojit and Bel flew to Tacloban City. They were greeted by Michael at the Tacloban Airport and went straight ahead at UPVTC. The team arrived at around 4:30pm at UPVTC. Prof. Joycie Alegre welcomed and introduced them to UPVTC Dean Dr. Anita Cular, the faculty, and students of the university. Dr. Victor Sugbo, a renowned literary artist, who is also a faculty member of UPVTC, attended the meeting. Bel Ballesteros served as the resource speaker for the presentation while the rest of the team assisted in answering questions from the audience. The setting was informal and the audience asked questions during the course of the presentation.<br />
<br />
:Here are some the points raised during the discussions:<br />
<br />
:# Their language should be referred to as "Waray" and it is neither "Waray-Waray" nor "Winaray." <br />
:# There is still no standard orthography for the Waray language.<br />
:# Dr. Sugbo raised the issue that some of his copyrighted works were being uploaded to Wikipedia without his permission. The project team assured him that any copyrighted works uploaded in any Wikimedia projects should and will be taken down.<br />
:# Dr. Sugbo also raised a concern about Wikipedia articles on biographies of some notable people who do not want their life stories to be known. He said that Wikipedia should ask permission to the said notable person before his or her biography can be published. The project team responded by mentioning that any person can have an article as long as the person passed the notability guideline of Wikipedia. In this regard, Wikipedians do not need to ask for permission to the said notable person. Nevertheless, the project team guaranteed that the community of editors exercise caution and include only material relevant to the person’s notability and avoid very personal biographies.<br />
:# Since Bel presented other Philippine-based languages Wikipedias, a faculty member who is an expert in Philippine languages pointed out that the Chavacano de Zamboanga Wikipedia should be referred to as Chavacano Wikipedia since the other two variants of Chavacano (Ermita and Cavite) were already extinct because there were no longer any speakers of that language in Ermita and Cavite.<br />
<br />
:After the presentation, Prof. Joycie Alegre was convinced that Wikipedia is a great project since it is a venue for exchanges of ideas as well as :distribution of free knowledge. In this regard, Michael proposed to have an edit-a-thon in UPVTC in the future and Prof. Alegre agreed to it. Michael will do the follow up for that matter.<br />
<br />
:As a token of appreciation, WMPH gave UPVTC a Wikipedia Offline DVD that contains more than 40,000 stable articles. Prof. Alegre also received a USB wristband, which contains information about Wikimedia. After the meeting, Michael briefly toured Johnny, Jojit and Bel around Tacloban City. The Tacloban leg of this project ended after Michael treated the whole project team to a dinner in downtown Tacloban.<br />
<br />
====='''Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Calbayog City'''=====<br />
<br />
:At around 8:30pm on November 21, 2014, the project team boarded a chartered passenger van going to Calbayog City, Samar. They arrived at the Almira Garden Hotel in Calbayog close to midnight.<br />
<br />
:In the morning of November 22, 2014, after eating breakfast, the project team went straight to Calbayog Convention Center, the venue of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.<br />
<br />
:Here are the highlights of the event:<br />
<br />
::9:30 am – Participants started to arrive<br />
::10:00 am – Michael Glen Ong delivered his opening remarks<br />
::10:30 am – Jojit Ballesteros gave his lecture about the basics of Wikipedia editing <br />
:::(Note: Snacks were given while Jojit delivered his talk.)<br />
::12:00 pm – ''Lunch break''<br />
::1:00 pm – Edit-a-thon started. <br />
:::Instead of individual effort on editing articles, the edit-a-thon became a group effort because not all participants brought laptops. The participants were divided to groups of five to ensure that a group has a laptop. Since this is the first edit-a-thon for Waray Wikipedia, Michael Ong, one of the administrators for the said Wikipedia edition, was not very much strict in terms of creation and editing of articles.<br />
::3:00 pm – ''Afternoon break''<br />
::3:15 pm – Edit-a-thon resumed<br />
::4:30 pm – Edit-a-thon ended and Jojit began tallying the contributions of each group.<br />
::4:55 pm – Jojit announced the top group of editors<br />
:::Group #1 who got the most number of characters edited won prizes. A special prize, a USB wristband, was given to Nemesio “Totoy” Baldesco for helping all the groups on their works. <br />
::5:00 pm – Johnny Alegre, Phil Harold Mercurio and Michael Glen Ong gave the closing remarks.<br />
::5:15 pm – Event ended<br />
<br />
:During the talk of Jojit Ballesteros, there were also questions asked by the participants and here are some of the points raised during the discussions:<br />
<br />
:# Locally, Waray-Waray means "nothing" and it should not refer either to the language or to the people. According to one of the participants, the term was popularized during the 1950s by Sylvia La Torre's song "Waray-Waray." Thus, it is just a recent terminology. Instead, the language should refer to as Sinirangan Bisaya. This is conflict with the stand of UPVTC, which they refer the language as “Waray.” In addition, based on the participants, meanings of words in Sinirangan Bisaya and Waray differ.<br />
:# Mr. Nemesio “Totoy” Baldesco, a renowned poet, asked if their work will be credited when they add content to Wikipedia. Jojit answered that all contributors in any given article will be attributed but since contributions are licensed free and there are numerous contributors in any given article, it is not practical to attribute (or credit) all contributors. When reusing content in Wikipedia, the link of the article must be indicated instead of listing down all contributors of that article. Jojit also added that the contributors of the Wikipedia article can be found in the “History” page of the article. <br />
<br />
:'''List of groups of participants of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Calbayog City'''<br />
<br />
:The participants were divided into five groups to ensure that every group has at least a laptop because not all of them brought laptops. The usernames of the group leaders were the ones used for entering their contributions. There were five persons in each group.<br />

:After the edit-a-thon, the project team went back to the hotel for dinner. At around 8:00pm, Johnny performed at Nijaga Park, which is near the hotel where the project team stayed. The performance was part of the Maharlika Sunrise Festival. His first performance was a jamming session with local musicians and then he sang “The Rain Song,” a song by Absolute Zero, one of his associated acts.<br />
<br />
====='''Teleconference with Global Voices'''=====<br />
<br />
:At around 9:00am on November 23, 2014, the project team contacted Eddie Avila of Global Voices through Skype at the lobby of the Almira Garden Hotel, Calbayog City. Here are some of the highlights of the said teleconference:<br />
<br />
:# Michael Ong discussed about the projects of the Sinarangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. He said that Wikimedia Philippines first visited the community in January 2013. He also said that the recently concluded visit at UPVTC and the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Calbayog City were both successful.<br />
:# Jojit Ballesteros discussed about the other Philippine-based languages of Wikipedia. Eddie is very much interested with the Chavacano Wikipedia because he comes from Latin America.<br />
:# Eddie invited WMPH to the Global Voices Media Summit, which will be held in Cebu City in January 2015. He requested for a representative from WMPH to participate in the panel discussion about Filipino Indigenous Languages in Citizen Media. Johnny said that he will discuss his request to the WMPH Board and let Eddie know if WMPH can send a representative.<br />
<br />
::The teleconference ended around 10:00am and after the project team had their lunch, Michael went back home to Tacloban. The rest of the team left Calbayog City at 6:50am the next day, November 24. There is only one Calbayog to Manila flight per day, and it leaves Calbayog Airport before 7:00am.<br />
<br />
=== Lessons learned ===<br />
:;What worked well?<br />
# Setting up a dialogue first to an organization or university will help establish future collaborations as in the case of the UPVTC meeting. The meeting also helped in gaining ideas and information from the UPVTC faculty and officials.<br />
# During the edit-a-thon, everyone was able to collaborate with each other and became familiar on wiki editing especially the literary experts such as Totoy Baldesco who helped in grammar and correct usage of Waray words while other more technically inclined participants typed in their work in wiki syntax. <br />
# This series of events helped in establishing partnership with three organizations: UPVTC, Maharlika Sunrise Festival organizers and Global Voices.<br />
# The project team was flexible and able to change the process of the edit-a-thon after they learned that only few people brought laptops. Instead of individual works, the participants were divided into groups. The project team was also able to find an alternative partner for the edit-a-thon. <br />
:;What didn't work?<br />
# The project team was not able to get Northwest Samar State University as the venue for the edit-a-thon that caused the delay of finalizing the project proposal. This could have been avoided if the project team ensures the final agreement from the partner organization.<br />
# Not all participants brought laptops despite announcement given to bring laptops.<br />
# There were 43 people registered for the event but only 27 showed up. There was excess food because the lunch and snacks meals were pre-ordered according to the number of registered participants. The excess could have been avoided if the project team counted the number of actual participants and volunteers first before ordering the food. Even with this, the food was not wasted because the participants were encouraged to eat as much as they could and the leftovers served as dinner for the project team.<br />
<br />
:;What would you do differently if you planned a similar project? <!---Please also include if you would measure the success of the project differently --><br />
:If we are going to plan a similar project, the project team suggests doing the edit-a-thon at a university or any venue that has a computer laboratory with reliable internet connection and multiple IP addresses. Advising the participants to bring laptops is not 100% guaranteed that everyone will bring their own laptops and this may limit the participants to only those who can bring their own laptops.<br />
<br />
=== Learning patterns ===<br />
;Endorsement of two existing learning patterns<br />
<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Connectivity issues|Connectivity issues]] - During the edit-a-thon, there were connectivity issues because not all telecommunication broadband signals are working. Fortunately, the project team brought broadband devices that connect to all telecommunication companies with broadband services. It is also a good thing that some participants brought their own broadband devices. The connectivity issue was resolved because of the preparedness of the project team.<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Bringing your students to edit-a-thons|Bringing your students to edit-a-thons]] – The project team was not able to get NwSSU as the venue for edit-a-thon but Phil Harold Mercurio, one of the Professors at NwSSU brought his students in the edit-a-thon and helped his students learn the basics of Wikipedia editing.<br />
<br />
==Outcomes and impact ==<br />
<br />
===Outcomes=== <br />
The main goal of this project is to increase contributions to the Waray Wikipedia, which includes creating and editing articles. Aside from writing articles in the Waray Wikipedia, the participants may also add content to other Wikimedia projects such as, but not limited to, uploading pictures to Wikimedia Commons and enhancing Waray-related articles in other language versions of Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
There were twenty-seven (27) persons who attended the event. During the actual edit-a-thon, only twenty-five (25) persons participated after they were grouped into five. This part of the goal was fully achieved. As for the number of characters contributed by the participants, it was not 100% achieved. Only 24,680 characters contributed by the five groups. The target number of contributions is 30,000 characters and thus only 82% of the target was achieved. Nevertheless, the project team considers this as a success because despite the limited number of resources, the participants were able to contribute a significant number of characters in Wikipedia. As a whole, the project was successful because it did not only focus at the edit-a-thon but also with partnering with organizations that produced positive results.<br />
<br />
This is how the project team knew about the number of characters contributed: Jojit Ballesteros, the facilitator of the event, has taken note of the usernames of each leader of the group. After the actual edit-a-thon, he counted all of the characters of each group through the “global edit summary” and the “recent changes” of each project that the participants have been through.<br />

<br />
Aside from the eagerness of participants to continue editing after the edit-a-thon, they are also requesting to have similar activities in the future. In this regard, it can be said that they were motivated.<br />

===Impact===<br />
<br />
What impact did this project have on WMF's [[metawikimedia:mission|mission]] and the [[metawikimedia:Grants:PEG/Strategic_Priorities|strategic priorities]]? <br />
<br />
''How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The mere fact that all the participants are newbies, their edits during the event can be considered as an increase participation in Wikimedia projects.<br />
<br />
''How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:Because they are the native Waray speakers and some of them are literary experts, they are the ones who know how to improve the quality of the Waray Wikipedia. The literary experts have suggested better wordings of the articles.<br />
<br />
''How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The [[wikipedia:en:Waray-Waray language|Waray language]] is around 3.1 million speakers, which is the 5th most spoken language in the Philippines out of more than 100 languages spoken in the Philippines. The contributions of this edit-a-thon will potentially help distribute free knowledge in the Waray language and increase the reach of the Wikimedia movement to the Waray speaking people.<br />

<br />
The '''1st Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thon''' was a day-long wiki editing event to improve the Waray Wikipedia and served as a follow-up to the [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines/Reports/Annual_report, 2013#January|the very first Wikimedia event in the Eastern Visayas]] that was conducted on January 2013. The actual edit-a-thon was held at the Calbayog Convention Center, Calbayog City, Samar on November 22, 2014. The edit-a-thon was part of the 11<sup>th</sup> Maharlika Sunrise Festival. [[metawikimedia:Wikimedia Philippines]] (WMPH) volunteers from Manila helped in assisting the participants on wiki editing. This event happened through the cooperation between the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community, the Maharlika Artists and Writers Federation and the Wikimedia Philippines. Funding came from the Wikimedia Philippines. Aside from the edit-a-thon, the project team had meetings with University of the Philippines Tacloban College (UPVTC) and Global Voices. WMPH President Johnny Alegre who is also musician performed on stage on the concert night after the edit-a-thon. The concert was part of the said festival.<br />
<br />
== Activities and lessons learned ==<br />
<br />
===Activities===<br />
<br />
===='''Pre-event preparations'''====<br />
<br />
:In September 2014, after the success of the [[metawikimedia:WikiProject Pangasinan/2014 Pangasinan Wikipedia_Edit-a-thon|Pangasinan Wikipedia Edit-a-thon]], former Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) Vice President Butch Bustria contacted the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia community, through its coordinator Michael Glen U. Ong. They explored the possibility of an outreach project in Eastern Visayas. Under Butch’s guidance and encouragement, Michael contacted Johnny Alegre, President of WMPH, and proposed an edit-a-thon in the Eastern Visayas.<br />
<br />
:Butch facilitated the very first Wikimedia event in the Eastern Visayas last January 2013. The proposed edit-a-thon served as a follow-up on the first event. After series of communications, the date for the event was set on November 22-23, 2014. A project proposal was sent to the WMPH Board for its approval. <br />
<br />
:As agreed with the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia community, there have been volunteers from Manila including Jojit Ballesteros who is also a veteran Wikipedian that helped in conducting the edit-a-thon since most of the expected participants are newbies. Michael Glen U. Ong became the Project Lead of the whole project. Jojit assisted Michael in preparing for the edit-a-thon. Since Jojit has experience in directing workshops and edit-a-thons, he also became Michael’s adviser for the event. Aside from Jojit, the other volunteers and part of the project team comprised of Johnny Alegre and Bel Ballesteros.<br />
<br />
:The original plan was to have an edit-a-thon at the Northwest Samar State University (NwSSU) and present Wikimedia projects to the faculty, officials and student leaders of the University of the Philippines Visayas Tacloban College (UPVTC) within the two days set in the proposal. Unfortunately, NwSSU declined the project team’s request to hold an edit-a-thon at their university, although, UPVTC welcomed the request for exploratory talks that was set on November 21, 2014. Michael sought for other possible venues for the edit-a-thon. He was able to contact Aimee Villas Adalla, one of the organizers of the 11th Maharlika Sunrise Festival at Calbayog City and they agreed to give Wikimedia a slot on their event on November 22, 2014. The Maharlika Sunrise Festival is a gathering of artists all over the Philippines. Since Johnny Alegre is also a musical artist, he was set to perform at the festival on the night after the scheduled edit-a-thon.<br />
<br />
:After everything was settled, the final proposal for the project was formally approved by the WMPH Board of Trustees on November 3, 2014. <br />
<br />
:A few days before the edit-a-thon, Eddie Avila of Global Voices contacted Michael and requested for a teleconference. Global Voices is an international network of bloggers, translators and citizen journalists and they are very much interested in the online works of Wikimedia. Since the WMPH President and other WMPH members would be together with Michael, the teleconference invitation was accepted and was set on November 23, 2014. Although this online meeting was not part of the project proposal, it became part of the project.<br />
<br />
===='''Actual events'''====<br />
<br />
====='''UPVTC meeting'''=====<br />
<br />
:On November 21, 2014, Johnny, Jojit and Bel flew to Tacloban City. They were greeted by Michael at the Tacloban Airport and went straight ahead at UPVTC. The team arrived at around 4:30pm at UPVTC. Prof. Joycie Alegre welcomed and introduced them to UPVTC Dean Dr. Anita Cular, the faculty, and students of the university. Dr. Victor Sugbo, a renowned literary artist, who is also a faculty member of UPVTC, attended the meeting. Bel Ballesteros served as the resource speaker for the presentation while the rest of the team assisted in answering questions from the audience. The setting was informal and the audience asked questions during the course of the presentation.<br />
<br />
:Here are some the points raised during the discussions:<br />
<br />
:# Their language should be referred to as "Waray" and it is neither "Waray-Waray" nor "Winaray." <br />
:# There is still no standard orthography for the Waray language.<br />
:# Dr. Sugbo raised the issue that some of his copyrighted works were being uploaded to Wikipedia without his permission. The project team assured him that any copyrighted works uploaded in any Wikimedia projects should and will be taken down.<br />
:# Dr. Sugbo also raised a concern about Wikipedia articles on biographies of some notable people who do not want their life stories to be known. He said that Wikipedia should ask permission to the said notable person before his or her biography can be published. The project team responded by mentioning that any person can have an article as long as the person passed the notability guideline of Wikipedia. In this regard, Wikipedians do not need to ask for permission to the said notable person. Nevertheless, the project team guaranteed that the community of editors exercise caution and include only material relevant to the person’s notability and avoid very personal biographies.<br />
:# Since Bel presented other Philippine-based languages Wikipedias, a faculty member who is an expert in Philippine languages pointed out that the Chavacano de Zamboanga Wikipedia should be referred to as Chavacano Wikipedia since the other two variants of Chavacano (Ermita and Cavite) were already extinct because there were no longer any speakers of that language in Ermita and Cavite.<br />
<br />
:After the presentation, Prof. Joycie Alegre was convinced that Wikipedia is a great project since it is a venue for exchanges of ideas as well as :distribution of free knowledge. In this regard, Michael proposed to have an edit-a-thon in UPVTC in the future and Prof. Alegre agreed to it. Michael will do the follow up for that matter.<br />
<br />
:As a token of appreciation, WMPH gave UPVTC a Wikipedia Offline DVD that contains more than 40,000 stable articles. Prof. Alegre also received a USB wristband, which contains information about Wikimedia. After the meeting, Michael briefly toured Johnny, Jojit and Bel around Tacloban City. The Tacloban leg of this project ended after Michael treated the whole project team to a dinner in downtown Tacloban.<br />
<br />
====='''Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Calbayog City'''=====<br />
<br />
:At around 8:30pm on November 21, 2014, the project team boarded a chartered passenger van going to Calbayog City, Samar. They arrived at the Almira Garden Hotel in Calbayog close to midnight.<br />
<br />
:In the morning of November 22, 2014, after eating breakfast, the project team went straight to Calbayog Convention Center, the venue of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.<br />
<br />
:Here are the highlights of the event:<br />
<br />
::9:30 am – Participants started to arrive<br />
::10:00 am – Michael Glen Ong delivered his opening remarks<br />
::10:30 am – Jojit Ballesteros gave his lecture about the basics of Wikipedia editing <br />
:::(Note: Snacks were given while Jojit delivered his talk.)<br />
::12:00 pm – ''Lunch break''<br />
::1:00 pm – Edit-a-thon started. <br />
:::Instead of individual effort on editing articles, the edit-a-thon became a group effort because not all participants brought laptops. The participants were divided to groups of five to ensure that a group has a laptop. Since this is the first edit-a-thon for Waray Wikipedia, Michael Ong, one of the administrators for the said Wikipedia edition, was not very much strict in terms of creation and editing of articles.<br />
::3:00 pm – ''Afternoon break''<br />
::3:15 pm – Edit-a-thon resumed<br />
::4:30 pm – Edit-a-thon ended and Jojit began tallying the contributions of each group.<br />
::4:55 pm – Jojit announced the top group of editors<br />
:::Group #1 who got the most number of characters edited won prizes. A special prize, a USB wristband, was given to Nemesio “Totoy” Baldesco for helping all the groups on their works. <br />
::5:00 pm – Johnny Alegre, Phil Harold Mercurio and Michael Glen Ong gave the closing remarks.<br />
::5:15 pm – Event ended<br />
<br />
:During the talk of Jojit Ballesteros, there were also questions asked by the participants and here are some of the points raised during the discussions:<br />
<br />
:# Locally, Waray-Waray means "nothing" and it should not refer either to the language or to the people. According to one of the participants, the term was popularized during the 1950s by Sylvia La Torre's song "Waray-Waray." Thus, it is just a recent terminology. Instead, the language should refer to as Sinirangan Bisaya. This is conflict with the stand of UPVTC, which they refer the language as “Waray.” In addition, based on the participants, meanings of words in Sinirangan Bisaya and Waray differ.<br />
:# Mr. Nemesio “Totoy” Baldesco, a renowned poet, asked if their work will be credited when they add content to Wikipedia. Jojit answered that all contributors in any given article will be attributed but since contributions are licensed free and there are numerous contributors in any given article, it is not practical to attribute (or credit) all contributors. When reusing content in Wikipedia, the link of the article must be indicated instead of listing down all contributors of that article. Jojit also added that the contributors of the Wikipedia article can be found in the “History” page of the article. <br />
<br />
:'''List of groups of participants of the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at Calbayog City'''<br />
<br />
:The participants were divided into five groups to ensure that every group has at least a laptop because not all of them brought laptops. The usernames of the group leaders were the ones used for entering their contributions. There were five persons in each group.<br />

:After the edit-a-thon, the project team went back to the hotel for dinner. At around 8:00pm, Johnny performed at Nijaga Park, which is near the hotel where the project team stayed. The performance was part of the Maharlika Sunrise Festival. His first performance was a jamming session with local musicians and then he sang “The Rain Song,” a song by Absolute Zero, one of his associated acts.<br />
<br />
====='''Teleconference with Global Voices'''=====<br />
<br />
:At around 9:00am on November 23, 2014, the project team contacted Eddie Avila of Global Voices through Skype at the lobby of the Almira Garden Hotel, Calbayog City. Here are some of the highlights of the said teleconference:<br />
<br />
:# Michael Ong discussed about the projects of the Sinarangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community. He said that Wikimedia Philippines first visited the community in January 2013. He also said that the recently concluded visit at UPVTC and the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon in Calbayog City were both successful.<br />
:# Jojit Ballesteros discussed about the other Philippine-based languages of Wikipedia. Eddie is very much interested with the Chavacano Wikipedia because he comes from Latin America.<br />
:# Eddie invited WMPH to the Global Voices Media Summit, which will be held in Cebu City in January 2015. He requested for a representative from WMPH to participate in the panel discussion about Filipino Indigenous Languages in Citizen Media. Johnny said that he will discuss his request to the WMPH Board and let Eddie know if WMPH can send a representative.<br />
<br />
::The teleconference ended around 10:00am and after the project team had their lunch, Michael went back home to Tacloban. The rest of the team left Calbayog City at 6:50am the next day, November 24. There is only one Calbayog to Manila flight per day, and it leaves Calbayog Airport before 7:00am.<br />
<br />
=== Lessons learned ===<br />
:;What worked well?<br />
# Setting up a dialogue first to an organization or university will help establish future collaborations as in the case of the UPVTC meeting. The meeting also helped in gaining ideas and information from the UPVTC faculty and officials.<br />
# During the edit-a-thon, everyone was able to collaborate with each other and became familiar on wiki editing especially the literary experts such as Totoy Baldesco who helped in grammar and correct usage of Waray words while other more technically inclined participants typed in their work in wiki syntax. <br />
# This series of events helped in establishing partnership with three organizations: UPVTC, Maharlika Sunrise Festival organizers and Global Voices.<br />
# The project team was flexible and able to change the process of the edit-a-thon after they learned that only few people brought laptops. Instead of individual works, the participants were divided into groups. The project team was also able to find an alternative partner for the edit-a-thon. <br />
:;What didn't work?<br />
# The project team was not able to get Northwest Samar State University as the venue for the edit-a-thon that caused the delay of finalizing the project proposal. This could have been avoided if the project team ensures the final agreement from the partner organization.<br />
# Not all participants brought laptops despite announcement given to bring laptops.<br />
# There were 43 people registered for the event but only 27 showed up. There was excess food because the lunch and snacks meals were pre-ordered according to the number of registered participants. The excess could have been avoided if the project team counted the number of actual participants and volunteers first before ordering the food. Even with this, the food was not wasted because the participants were encouraged to eat as much as they could and the leftovers served as dinner for the project team.<br />
<br />
:;What would you do differently if you planned a similar project? <!---Please also include if you would measure the success of the project differently --><br />
:If we are going to plan a similar project, the project team suggests doing the edit-a-thon at a university or any venue that has a computer laboratory with reliable internet connection and multiple IP addresses. Advising the participants to bring laptops is not 100% guaranteed that everyone will bring their own laptops and this may limit the participants to only those who can bring their own laptops.<br />
<br />
=== Learning patterns ===<br />
;Endorsement of two existing learning patterns<br />
<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Connectivity issues|Connectivity issues]] - During the edit-a-thon, there were connectivity issues because not all telecommunication broadband signals are working. Fortunately, the project team brought broadband devices that connect to all telecommunication companies with broadband services. It is also a good thing that some participants brought their own broadband devices. The connectivity issue was resolved because of the preparedness of the project team.<br />
# [[metawikimedia:Grants:Learning patterns/Bringing your students to edit-a-thons|Bringing your students to edit-a-thons]] – The project team was not able to get NwSSU as the venue for edit-a-thon but Phil Harold Mercurio, one of the Professors at NwSSU brought his students in the edit-a-thon and helped his students learn the basics of Wikipedia editing.<br />
<br />
==Outcomes and impact ==<br />
<br />
===Outcomes=== <br />
The main goal of this project is to increase contributions to the Waray Wikipedia, which includes creating and editing articles. Aside from writing articles in the Waray Wikipedia, the participants may also add content to other Wikimedia projects such as, but not limited to, uploading pictures to Wikimedia Commons and enhancing Waray-related articles in other language versions of Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
There were twenty-seven (27) persons who attended the event. During the actual edit-a-thon, only twenty-five (25) persons participated after they were grouped into five. This part of the goal was fully achieved. As for the number of characters contributed by the participants, it was not 100% achieved. Only 24,680 characters contributed by the five groups. The target number of contributions is 30,000 characters and thus only 82% of the target was achieved. Nevertheless, the project team considers this as a success because despite the limited number of resources, the participants were able to contribute a significant number of characters in Wikipedia. As a whole, the project was successful because it did not only focus at the edit-a-thon but also with partnering with organizations that produced positive results.<br />
<br />
This is how the project team knew about the number of characters contributed: Jojit Ballesteros, the facilitator of the event, has taken note of the usernames of each leader of the group. After the actual edit-a-thon, he counted all of the characters of each group through the “global edit summary” and the “recent changes” of each project that the participants have been through.<br />

| style="background-color: #FFFFFF; padding: .5em 2em"| There should be 30,000 characters or equivalent to approximately 20 pages of printed text added in the Waray Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects.<br />
| style="background-color: #FFFFFF; padding: .5em 2em"| There are more than 24,680 characters added in various Wikimedia projects. <br />
| style="background-color: #FFFFFF; padding: .5em 2em"| Only 82% of the target was achieved. This is due to the fact that not all participants brought laptops, which was why they were grouped into five to ensure that every group has at least one laptop that the members can use. Despite that, the participants were able to contribute a significant number of valuable content to Wikipedia.<br />

Aside from the eagerness of participants to continue editing after the edit-a-thon, they are also requesting to have similar activities in the future. In this regard, it can be said that they were motivated.<br />

===Impact===<br />
<br />
What impact did this project have on WMF's [[metawikimedia:mission|mission]] and the [[metawikimedia:Grants:PEG/Strategic_Priorities|strategic priorities]]? <br />
<br />
''How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The mere fact that all the participants are newbies, their edits during the event can be considered as an increase participation in Wikimedia projects.<br />
<br />
''How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:Because they are the native Waray speakers and some of them are literary experts, they are the ones who know how to improve the quality of the Waray Wikipedia. The literary experts have suggested better wordings of the articles.<br />
<br />
''How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?'' <br />
<br />
:The [[wikipedia:en:Waray-Waray language|Waray language]] is around 3.1 million speakers, which is the 5th most spoken language in the Philippines out of more than 100 languages spoken in the Philippines. The contributions of this edit-a-thon will potentially help distribute free knowledge in the Waray language and increase the reach of the Wikimedia movement to the Waray speaking people.<br />
