''This section describes what will happen if this project is funded. Who will do what, and when?''
;List of activities:
:<p style="background:#80CC99;">'''P1 - Digitization: ''' Digitization program: To have a significant part of the license-free compulsory Armenian literature in Wikisource. In 2014, we have digitized the Armenian Encyclopedia, and placed it in Wikisource. We are currently preparing a list of license-free Eastern-Armenian literature that needs to be digitized over the next 12 months. We will follow up to get access to the material, scan, pass it through OCR and place it in Wikisource. </p>
::* Digitization of books currently becoming public ___domain
::* interface with different libraries to upload license-free Armenian literature in Wikisource
::* '''work with the appropriate authorities to allow putting in Wikisource, at a minimum, all educational materials published by the government.'''
:<p style="background: #CCCCFF;">'''P2 - Wiki Loves Science:''' Wiki loves science: We have often received feedback that articles on scientific topics are noticeably lacking in the Armenian Wikipedia. Through the Wiki Loves Science initiative, we hope to enrich Armenian Wikipedia on topics of science. This year, our concentration will be on Biology and Physics. Our goal is to add 300 new articles in Biology, and 100 articles in Physics. </p>
::* Meeting with Young biologists association and chain of workshops
::* Workshops for all institutions related to physics.
::* Editing weekend for Young biologists
::* Editing weekend for
::* Editing weekend for chemists
::* support efforts to enrich articles minimum in two fields of science by working with universities and the scientific community
:<p style="background: #E0C2FF;">'''P3 - Support and Increase active WikiClubs:''' In addition to the two existing WikiClubs in Yerevan and Gyumri, we will establish Wiki Clubs in 7 new cities, specifically in Vanadzor, Yeghvard, Ashtarak, Talin, Aparan, Goris, Stepanakert (Artsakh) - With the creation of active Clubs, we will expand our membership and spread the wiki culture among more communities (living in cities other than the capital). The expanded membership will allow us to implement GLAM and other projects outside of the capital over the next few years. </p>
::* Each month, interact with the active editors in a selected major city and help establish a club in that city.
::* Maintain interactions with the clubs already established, and maintain enthusiasm to train and attract new comers
:<p style="background: #FFCC99;">'''P4 - Educational Programs:''' Education program: Currently we have a Wiki Education program in 7 schools. We aim to add 8 more (2 a quarter). The goal of getting 8 additional schools (to make a total of 15 school) involved in the wiki education programs is to start building a population that is knowledgeable in the mechanics of becoming a wiki editor, and building up a community of future contributors to wiki. Our experience indicates that once the "wiki culture" penetrates a school, there is little needed by the Wikimedia volunteers to maintain the enthusiasm. The students and teacher staff sustain the program. After the initial training and the handholding during the first 6 months, the Wikimedia volunteers are involved solely in providing suggestion on what topics the students could write about - or topics they can translate from other languages, providing statistics on level of contributions in different schools, re-training teachers in the rare event that there is a turnover in teaching staff, informing students on further training provided in the schools or other central locations, about advanced topics in wiki.</p>
::* High School Educational Programs - add two schools a quarter to the Wikipedia Education program.
::* Training programs for General Population - headed by the members in various WikiClubs
:<p style="background:#EB9999 ">'''P5 – GLAM:''' - We have recently signed an agreement with the National Library of Armenia to provide digitized content to be added to WikiSource. - We aim to sign an agreement with Matenadaran, where they will provide digitized content in Armenian to be deposited in WikiSource, to serve as reference material to those editing in Armenian. - We aim to start discussions with Erebuni museum on areas of cooperation, and accordingly set up a plan, sign an agreement for providing digitized content and/or possibly photos. We will follow up with them, to organize working sessions to ensure the execution of the agreement, and to support them in overcoming difficulties they may encounter.</p>
::* Meeting with Cultural institutions of Ministry of Culture.
::* Cooperation with Matenadaran: Sign agreement of cooperation in the first half of the year; coordinate the creation of at least 10 articles about the main collections of Matenadaran.
::* Cooperation with National Library: Sign agreement to use NL books and scanned books in order to upload digitized material to Wikisource.
::* Cooperation with Erebuni museum: Sign agreement of cooperation. Support writing of a minimum of 10 articles about the cultural heritage available in the museum.
:<p style="background: #99C2C2">'''P6 - Expand Wiki Commons:''' </p>
::* <s>Wiki Loves Earth</s> ''(Budget for this project has been moved to the Wiki Loves Science project. Please see the discussion page for more details.)''
::* Famous Armenians - Photo Depository. Combine famous Armenians list and organize meeting for taking pictures or sharing pictures.
:<p style="background:#ADADD6 ">'''P7 - International Projects:'''</p>
::* Cooperation with Estonia
::* Wikimania 2014: Susanna Mkrtchyan and Mher Bekaryan will attend and share ideas and experiences.
Line 151 ⟶ 152:
::* Wikimedia Educational Conference: Susanna Mkrtchyan and a colleague will attend and share ideas and experience.
:<p style="background:#D6EB99 ">'''P8 - General Wikimedia Office management:''' *To set Wikimedia Armenia office. (Budget covered through sources outside of the budget request provided within this Grant Proposal). With the successful implementation of the project, for the next 25 years, we will not be dependent on outside sources for rental expenses of office space for Wikimedia Armenia. We will also have additional space that will also allow us to organize WikiClub Yerevan activities in parallel with Educational and organizational activities.</p>
::* Support Computing Environment (internet cost, server room and server management, network management, PC support)
::* Acquire office space - free of rent for a period of 25 years
Line 157 ⟶ 158:
:: - Hakob Hakobyan, the director of Intellectual Renaissance Foundation, will prepare the renovation project plan and associated cost and will present it to Artur Janibekyan, the president of Intellectual Renaissance, who will approve the budget. Mr. Hagopyan will oversee the renovation effort
:<p style="background: #FFEB99">'''P9 - Activities that lead to the introduction of Western Armenian as a language in Wikipedia:''' To open Wikipedia for Western Armenian language - No funding is requested for this effort. It is included in this plan for completeness of activities planned for the upcoming 12 months. The Armenian Wikipedia today has articles in Eastern Armenian. Western Armenian is the Armenian language that is the mother tongue of about 5,000,000 Armenians in the diaspora. Eastern Armenian is the language used by Armenians currently in Armenia and the X-Soviet Union. There are a lot of common words within the two languages, because they both originate from one common source - Medieval Armenian. However, the Eastern Armenian and Western Armenian languages differ extensively in grammar, vocabulary and dictation. We are currently engaging individuals to contribute in Western Armenian. Since most of those individuals live in the diaspora, we aim to use this year to gain some experience and gage expectations. So, you are correct in your assessment that "more people will edit Wikipedia in Western Armenia" is very obscure. It stems from our inexperience in how best to interact/train editors. We will use this year's experience to form an executable plan for next year with concrete and measurable goals.</p>
