Part 1 Understanding your work
1. Briefly describe how your proposed activities and strategies were implemented.
Description of how our activities and strategies were implemented |
Our activities and strategies were subdivided into six broad categories and implemented through some critical actions, which included effective management of projects by competent and experienced members of our community, communication flow, collaboration with academic institutions, and other Wikimedia affiliates.
- GLAM initiatives
We worked on the "Audiovisuals of Yoruba Indigenous Vocations" to document indigenous vocations unique to the Yoruba people and culture to preserve the knowledge both for historical and educational purposes.
- Contents generation
Our content generation activities were broadly divided into campaigns, contests, edit-a-thons, and drives. We organised a series of contests and campaigns to create content.
- Capacity building
We organised various capacity-building trainings and sessions to help both new and existing members of our community build capacity.
- Outreach and advocacy
We sustained our outreach programs, the WikiRadio show and 12 episodes were aired. We created a skit to promote the Yoruba Wikipedia on social media. The videos were viewed by more than 2 million people across various social media and attracted new editors to Yoruba Wikipedia.
- Partnership
We partnered with numerous mission-aligned organization and donated our works to academic institutions
- Conferences and other events
We organised the Celtic Knot Conference 2022, Wikimanian local event, and participated in the Wikimedia Summit in Berlin and the Wiki Indaba Conference in Rwanda.
For detail information, see https://w.wiki/79B2
2. Were there any strategies or approaches that you felt were effective in achieving your goals?
Strategies or approaches that were effective in achieving our goals |
Yes, we would like to highlight some strategies and approaches that are effective in achieving our goals. These strategies and approaches included the following
- We'd like to emphasize the widespread fact that the general support grant from the WMF worked well for our group. Members of our group did not apply for a rapid grant because we already had a general support grant approved, and they were happy to work with the user group instead of having to apply for a rapid grant to do an individual project.
- Collaborations with other established user groups locally (Wikimedia Nigeria, Igbo Wikimedians User *Group) and internationally (Wikimedia UK, Deoband Wikimedia Community)
- Partnership with the International Center for Yoruba Arts and Culture
- The donation of our Yoruba Indigenous Vocation (Oral Knowledge) audiovisual recordings to academic institutions helped us to connect with academic institutions
- Teamwork, effective participation of members of our community, and communication flows were all effective in achieving our goals.
- Registration as a non-profit organisation in Nigeria also helped us secure partnerships, as most organisations in Nigeria are more interested in partnering with registered organisations.

3. Would you say that your project had any innovations? Are there things that you did very differently than you have seen them done by others?
Innovations and things we did very differently |
- Donation of materials to academic institutions
We are the first Wikimedia affiliates in the Wikimedia movement to have donated Wikimedia-related contents or outcomes of projects, especially audiovisual works funded by the WMF, to academic institutions. We have not seen this done by other Wikimedia affiliates. We are indeed the group that reached out to Wikimedia UG Nigeria for a joint donation to these academic institutions, as well as a way to foster collaboration with local user groups in Nigeria. We are happy that this makes history in our movement.
- Using skits by a comedian to recruit new editors
In the Wikimedia movement, we are the first affiliate to ever use a skit maker to recruit volunteers for a language version of Wikipedia. We have not seen this done by any affiliate. The one closest to this was done by the WMF in Nigeria, where the young comedians Emannualla and Mark Angel played the lead roles. We are excited about this project, as at least 50 new editors created accounts after seeing the video.
- Using central notice banner to recruit new editors
We are undoubtedly the first affiliate that uses the central notice banner to recruit new editors for Wikipedia. In our Recruit readers as writers project, we host a central notice banner on the English Wikipedia and attach a form where people can register for training to contribute to the Yoruba Wikipedia. More than 500 people registered, and about 100 attended our trainings online and in person.
For detailed, please see : https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Yoruba_Wikimedians_User_Group_2022-2023_annual_activities

Part 2: Your main learning
8. In your application, you outlined your learning priorities. What did you learn about these areas during this period?
Our key learnings |
- Audiovisual donation: Our learning shows that donating audiovisuals to academic and cultural institutions is an impactful way to connect these institutions, and governments to the Wikimedia community.
- Priority goals: Participants' priority goals align with some of our community's top priorities. Our community's top priorities were to increase the quality of contents on Yoruba Wikipedia, and to promote Yoruba Wikipedia.
- Internet limitation: The Internet continues to remain a challenge for participants and members of our community.
- Opportunity for improvement : Participants reported that the training program should be improved. Improvement could include direct improvement, such as the quality of training or indirect improvement, such as the creation of training materials or resources.
- Support for participants: Participants reported that they need internet data support, self-paced training materials, capacity building, mentorship, and protection from global IP blocks.
- Support for core team members: core team members need internet and staff support, self-paced training materials to share with participants prior to training, funding support to attend conferences, devices such as laptops, scanners, etc.
- Communication : The participants reported that our communication was effective but needed improvement.
- Donation: We receive in-kind support, such as a hall for events and training
9. Did anything unexpected or surprising happen when implementing your activities?
unexpected or surprising things that happened |
- Donation of audiovisual works to universities
Our GLAM project on indigenous vocations unique to the Yoruba people was well received by academic institutions. We never knew that this was something that academic institutions would find interesting. Surprisingly, many academic institutions find it useful and have invited us to donate this resource to them. This resource has now been donated to at least three universities.
- Using central notice banner to recruit volunteers
We use the central notice banner to recruit new editors for Yoruba Wikipedia. In our Recruit readers as writers project, we host a central notice banner on the English Wikipedia and attach a form where people can register for training to contribute to the Yoruba Wikipedia. More than 500 people registered, and about 100 attended our training online and in person. This was surprising, as we never imagined that this could work as well as it turned out.
One of the female participants said
I never knew that I would be able to edit Wikipedia. I have always thought that Wikipedia and its language versions are written by Americans and Europeans. I was excited when the banner popped up saying that I should register for a training on how to contribute to Wikipedia. Today, I am here, and I am so happy.
10. How do you hope to use this learning? For instance, do you have any new priorities, ideas for activities, or goals for the future?
How we used our learnings |
- Audiovisual donation: Having learnt that donating audiovisuals to academic and cultural institutions is an impactful way to connect these institutions to the Wikimedia community, we want to continue to sustain this effort.
- Internet limitation: The Internet continues to remain a challenge for participants and members of our community. Based on our learning, we have designed an Internet support program for community members
- Improvement : Participants reported that the training program should be improved. Improvement could include direct improvement, such as the quality of training or indirect improvement, such as the creation of training materials or resources. Based on this learning we have engaged the service of a professional to help create audiovisual trainings resources for Yoruba Wikipedia.
- Support for participants: Participants reported that they need internet data support, self-paced training materials, capacity building, mentorship, and protection from global IP blocks. Based on this learning, we have localized IP Block exemption module on the Yoruba Wikipedia
- Support for core team members: core team members need internet and staff support, self-paced training materials to share with participants prior to training, device such as laptops. We now have staff support, and the self-paced training resource is being developed.
11. If you were sitting with a friend to tell them one thing about your work during this fund, what would it be (think of inspiring or fascinating moments, tough challenges, interesting anecdotes, or anything that feels important to you)?
- There are multiple strategies that can be employed to effectively promote the dissemination of free knowledge. While there is no one-size-fits-all approach, a combination of various methods can yield significant results. One such strategy involves the act of donating educational resources produced by Wikimedian volunteers to academic institutions, thereby providing valuable learning materials for students and researchers. We are happy to have initiated this strategy.
12. Please share resources that would be useful to share with other Wikimedia organizations so that they can learn from, adapt or build upon your work. For instance, guides, training material, presentations, work processes, or any other material the team has created to document and transfer knowledge about your work and can be useful for others. Please share any specific resources that you are creating, adapting/contextualizing in ways that are unique to your context (i.e. training material).

Part 5: Sense of belonging and collaboration
21. What would it mean for your organization to feel a sense of belonging to the Wikimedia or free knowledge movement?
- The Wikimedia movement, along with the broader free knowledge movement, offers a multitude of avenues for engaging in multidimensional collaboration. This power of collective intelligence and the initiatives it supports enable individuals from diverse backgrounds and expertise to come together and contribute to the creation and dissemination of knowledge. Throughout the course of this year, our organisation has actively engaged in fruitful collaborations with a multitude of Wikimedia affiliates, both on an international and local scale. These collaborative efforts have played a pivotal role in the successful implementation of our programmes. For our organisations, this means a lot, and the fact that we are providing free access to knowledge in a local language makes us feel fulfilled as an organisation.
22. How has your (for individual grantees) or your group/organization’s (for organizational grantees) sense of belonging to the Wikimedia or free knowledge movement changed over the fund period?
- Increased significantly
23. If you would like to, please share why it has changed in this way.
- Local knowledge is underrated, and the sense of belonging we have has increased significantly owing to the support we have received from the foundation and the global community.
