Goals

[edit]

Did you meet your goals? Are you happy with how the project went?

Yes. I met my set out goals and, and I am happy with the outcome of the project. This is the first time of my appearance as a wikimedia project lead to LASU students. The major goal of this project was to have a merged wiki program between the Main campus and the sub campus, this worked well as the members of both campuses were able to get familiar with each other. The participants edited articles, and added references and citations to wiki pages.

other fan club activities during the month:

  • Registration renewal of the fan club was carried out but was not completed due the the unavailability of some of the staff advisers and the congested work schedule for the semester

Learning

[edit]

Projects do not always go according to plan. Sharing what you learned can help you and others plan similar projects in the future. Help the movement learn from your experience by answering the following questions:

  • What worked well?

The use of a Wikipedia trainer strategy worked very well. Also the use of souvenirs to encourage active participants was helpful. Question and answer series worked very well.

  • What did not work so well?

The number of participants that was expected was underestimated, fan club members from the sub campus to the main campus did not arrive in time due to heavy traffic conditions.

  • What would you do differently next time?

Although majority of the conditions were beyond our control, I would ensure that proper survey and chance for elasticity is given in the budget, also that the timing will be properly considered.
