Question about your report[edit]

Dear Csisc,

Thank you for submitting this report. Can you please clarify what you are submitting to meet the outcome requirement? As you may recall from the instructions on the talkpage of your original request, here are the guidelines we provide regarding outcomes:

"an outcome does not include the materials you prepare to present at the event, though we’d like you to link to those in your report, too. An outcome is something that is created during or after the event because of your participation and that extends the value of your participation beyond the conference participants. For example, your outcome could be something new that was co-created by you and your fellow participants at the event, like one or more articles on Wikipedia improving content about a topic that conference participants know about. Your outcome can also be blog post you write after the event to share your experience with others. You may also write a learning pattern to teach others something you've learned at the event."

Thank you for clarifying how you are meeting this requirement.

Marti (WMF): I thank you for your answer. The outcome is the file entitled "AICCSA 2017 - Wikidata discussion" available here. As shown in the file, I explained how datasets can be easily added to Wikidata and how Wikidata can be easily used. That is why I succeeded to convince Professors Ashraf Elnagar and Mustafa Jarrar to add their bilingual Arabic dialect - English dictionaries as labels to Wikidata entities (60000 South Levantine commons words, 50000 Tunisian commons words, 5000 transcription of proper nouns in Tunisian...). We will also add descriptions to Wikidata items in Arabic dialects using Descriptioner. There are some other interesting outcomes. However, I should discuss them with Wikidata technical community before publishing them. --Csisc (talk) 09:48, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Report accepted[edit]

Csisc,

Though the discussion itself does not meet the outcome requirement, the addition of the labels to Wikidata entities does, so I am accepting this report.

Thank you for clarifying!

It sounds like there were a lot of interesting and fruitful discussions that happened during your participation in this event. Thank you for serving as an advocate for Wikimedia projects.

Our Grants Administrator will be in touch about your reimbursement.

Warm regards,
