The Wikimedia Community User Group Greece and GreekLUG organize a seminar with the title Wikipedia Lab of three weekly three-hour courses beginning on Saturday 14 March.
The subject of the seminar is to introduce and deepen the contribution to Wikipedia, as well as introduction to other Wikipedia fraternal ventures, such as Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. The lessons are self-contained and the absence from one does not burden the understanding of the next. The course format includes on-the-spot practical demonstration and practice of using the Wikipedia editing environment and all related functions.
Η Wikipedia or Wikipedia is an international, free content, collaboratively evolving encyclopedia, innetwork. It is written collaboratively by volunteers with wiki software, which means that entries can be added or changed by anyone. It is the fifth most visited website in the world.
The Wikimedia Commons is an online repository of images, sounds and other free media files. The Wikidata is also a free, cooperative venture and a knowledge base of structured data. Both are used to centrally access multimedia and data from all Wikipedia and other ventures Wikimedia Foundation.
The seminar is held in his laboratory GreekLUG - Municipal Center for Informatics & Free Software, Egnatia 96 in Pylea, Thessaloniki on 14, 21, and 28 March, 17: 30.
