ESEAP Hub/Governance/Community Connector/Endorsement/Cycle 2/Candidate/Ultron90

Ultron90

Introduction: My name is Farouk Azim from Malaysia. I have been a Wikimedian since 2020. My home wikis are Malay Wiktionary and Malay Wikipedia. I am affiliated with Wikimedia Community User Group Malaysia as the affiliate's Programme Manager. I have extensive experience in the ESEAP community through my work within my country as well as in neighboring ESEAP countries, mainly through event & workshop coordination, international relations & partnerships, and community engagement. I focus mostly on indigenous language & culture documentation & preservation. I generally lead in teaching workshops for most Wikimedia projects to Youth in primary, secondary, and tertiary education as well as indigenous communities.

Governance experience:

• Full-time paid employee (Programme Manager) for Wikimedia Community User Group Malaysia since January 2024
• Admin on Malay Wiktionary (since June 2024) & Kadazandusun Wikipedia (since June 2024)
• Event organizer on Malay Wikipedia, Malay Wiktionary, Kadazandusun Wikipedia, Meta-Wiki, Iban Wikipedia, Malay Wikiquote
• Part of Programme management committee for ESEAP Conference 2024

Statement: I believe my previous experience in coordinating events, leading workshops, and liaising with potential partners in several ESEAP countries (Japan, South Korea, Philippines, Indonesia, Brunei, Singapore, Thailand) can be a useful addition to the ESEAP Hub. As part of Wikimedia CUG Malaysia, we have assisted the ESEAP Hub in connecting with several entities for further coordination. Being a Community Connector would enhance assistance for the ESEAP Hub in becoming a better support system for ESEAP communities.
