Why?

The lacks of diversity and orality in Wikimedia projects and on the web in general limit the ability of Internet users to communicate and contribute online to various web platforms where they cannot find content and communities sharing their language. Among the regional minority languages that are oral or signed, they threaten in particular the poorly endowed ones, many of which are currently in danger of extinction and for whom inclusion on the web is a major challenge and opportunity. Indeed, of the 7.000 languages in existence today, it is estimated that only 2.500 will survive to the next century and only 250 (less than 5%!) will make their digital ascent, a factor which is yet essential for their vitality. Current initiatives by linguists and activists to document and share data, resources and content online in endangered languages do not directly contribute to the development of a digitally-ascendant linguistic community of Internet users, and thus remain limited in their impact.

Lingua Libré ngudag kakurangan pangrojong ieu ku nawaran solusi onlén pikeun rékaman masal, nu ngahasilkeun publikasi korpus audiovisual multibasa réréongan dina lisénsi bébas, anu udaganana pikeun nyatet jeung ngahirupkeun deui basa ku cara ngahudang kontribusi masarakat basa anyar di Lingua Libré hususna, sarta balaréa umumna.

How?

Lingua Libre is a tool that allows to record a large number of words in a few hours (up to 1.000 words/hour with a clean word list and an experienced user). It automatizes the classic procedure for recording and adding audio-visual pronunciation files onto Wikimedia projects. Once the recording is done, the platform automatically uploads clean, well cut, well named and apps-friendly audio files, directly to Wikimedia Commons.
