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 ability of each and every volunteer to participat till the end of the project and also being part of the WikidataCon which was very insightful for participants, they really learnt a lot from the wikidata team

  • What did not work so well?

We had serious network challenges due to the location of the event and the service provider provided inadequate service eventhough we were able to edit

  • What would you do differently next time?

We look forward to using a different network provider as compared to the intitial one we used in other to ensure better engagement
