Materialien

In diesem Abschnitt findest du Vorlagen und Dateien, mit denen du die gewünschten Inhalte erstellen kannst. Für Logos und Präsentationen haben wir neue Vorlagen erstellt. Für die Logos haben wir Figma benutzt, eine freie Software, die im Browser funktioniert. Eine Vorlage für Präsentationen wurde in Google Slides angelegt. Auch wenn du selbst kein Designer bist, solltest du mit diesen Vorlagen deine eigenen Materialien zusammenstellen können!

Mini Canva tutorial

  • Create a free account on Canva if you don't have one already.[1]
  • With your account open, click on the link of the template you'd like to use.
  • On the top menu bar, click on "file", then "make a copy".
  • Now that you have your own editable copy of the template, feel free to change the text and branding to fit for your needs.
  • Whenever you are satisfied with your design, go back to the top menu bar, click on "share" then "download", then choose the pages you want downloaded, the file format and the options you need, then hit "download" to save a copy on your device.

Präsentationen

Für Präsentationen verwenden wir Google Slides. Du findest die Vorlage unten.

Taglines

So you want to create your User Group/Chapter/Thematic Organization’s own tagline/descriptor. That is great! We have put together this quick how-to guide that will walk you through the best-practices in creating an approved tagline/descriptor that will help you communicate your work better:

First, look at the available taglines/descriptors that have already been approved and can be applied to most use cases with the file File:Writing_Affiliates_Taglines.pdf on Wikimedia Commons.

Create your own tagline

Haven't found a tagline/descriptor that you think best describes your affiliate group? you can create your own. If you do not know where to start, follow the next steps:

  • Start by writing, in a few words, lines that describe: Your affiliate group’s ultimate goal, what differentiates your group from others and something that the users in your group have in common (it could be a common passion or a geographic location).
  • Make sure that you keep your line short: the shorter, the better. In English, we recommend no more than 10 words total.
  • Make sure that the line you have written provides a connection between the affiliate group and Wikipedia, other Wikimedia projects, or the movement.

Some considerations when creating your own tagline

  • Do add words that are related to the Wikimedia movement, which can include: free knowledge, open knowledge, sum of all human knowledge.
  • Check to see if there is a clear distinction that demonstrates the independence from the Wikimedia Foundation per the legal definition of affiliates—that will protect you and the users who are part of the group. Read more about Wikimedia movement affiliate models.
  • Do not include wording that can make you and other volunteers in your User Group vulnerable to legal liability, such as: Local representant of the Wikimedia Foundation; local chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation; using only “Wikimedia”, without the word “movement” or “projects” (it might be open to interpretation).
  • Do include wording that demonstrate your independence from the Wikimedia Foundation, such as: Independent, volunteer-based

Final steps

  • Once you are done, share it with others in your affiliate group so they can provide their feedback.
  • Test the tagline against your Affiliate/User Group’s logomark. Does it work? Does it not? Why?
  • Happy with the final line? Then you are ready to use it! Feel free to share your new tagline/descriptor to the talk page for other communities to remix or use.
