Wikimedia documents initiative
 |
This project is currently dormant, the main reasons being 1. a lack of interest from those who would benefit from it, and 2. other priorities of those who supported the project in the first place. If you would like to revive this project, please feel free to contact guillom, who will be able to either help directly, or direct you to the appropriate person. |

The Wikimedia documents initiative (WMDOC) aims at creating and maintaining a centralized set of standardized, up-to-date and localized core reference documents for public relations, marketing and public outreach. It follows the PR material cleanup.
All documents will be hosted on meta-wiki. Their PDF version will be hosted on Commons.

Documents [edit]
This initiative's goal is to maintain a set of core documents such as leaflets, cheatsheets, presentations and one-pagers[1]. All-in-one kits with several of these documents will also be offered for Wikimedians who want to stage an event easily. More specific documents such as posters can be created but they won't be a part of the core set of documents.
Tools & fonts [edit]
In order to allow for maximum flexibility, dissemination and responsiveness, all the documents produced as part of this initiative will be created using open fonts, libre software and open formats.
- Fonts
- DejaVu fonts family
- Open font library
- Open font library on fontly.org
- Tools
- Scribus for most of the desktop publishing
- LaTeX Beamer for presentations
- Inkscape for vector graphics
Matrix [edit]
- WMDOC/matrix: matrix of documents and languages
Notes and references [edit]
