We launched regular online workshops to teach editing[edit]

Islamic architecture editing workshop.

Although it is sort of a primary objective, keeping organized group members closely connected to the online Wikimedia projects and intently familiar with them is often a challenge. Moving online after the pandemic, however, offered the advantaged of holding focused online workshops to reach participants across different geographies: which is a regular reality in the work of Wikimedia Levant. These workshops had two objectives: 1. to help teach new users and members how to edit online projects, and 2. to improve the content of Wikimedia projects in certain areas. The diverse topics of the workshops included women, Christian religious icons and lists of books, Islamic architecture and Morocco's heritage.
