"Inspire"-Kampagne: größere Vielfalt, bessere Inhalte
Jetzt im März läuft die "Inspire"-Kampagne zur Unterstützung der Umsetzung neuer Ideen, die das Ziel haben, die Geschlechtervielfalt in Wikimedia-Projekten zu verbessern. Es fehlen noch viele wichtige Themen in unserem Content und weniger als 20% der Aktiven sind weiblich. Alle sind eingeladen, sich zu beteiligen. Wenn du eine Idee hast, mit der eine bessere Balance geschaffen werden kann, beteilige dich bitte! Die Kampagne läuft bis zum 31. März.
Willkommen sind alle Arten von Vorschlägen: Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen, technische Lösungen, Projekte, die die Community einbeziehen, Outreach-Aktivitäten oder etwas völlig Neues! Ein Projekt von dir, für das Geld benötigt wird, kann von der Wikimedia Foundation finanziell unterstützt werden. Für Ideen, die vorgeschlagen werden, bitten wir um konstruktives und positives Feedback. Zusammenarbeit wird gefördert, denn mit dem, was du kannst und schon weißt, kannst du gemeinsam mit anderen die Projektideen auch Dritter umsetzen. Bring deine Ideen bei der "Inspire"-Kampagne ein und sorge dafür, dass in diesem Projekt das Wissen der Welt in seiner Vielfalt besser zu sehen ist. MediaWiki message delivery (Diskussion) 17:20, 6.
