Wikimedia CEE meeting 2013

Wikimedia CEE meeting 2013 was held between the 14th and 17th of November 2013 in Modra, Slovakia. It is a meeting of Wikimedia users and activists from Central and Eastern Europe. This meeting was organized by Wikimedia Slovakia and E@I and hosted 40-50 Wikimedia activists from several countries. This meeting is supported by the Wikimedia Foundation as well as by some national Wikimedia organizations. The special "V4 for Wikipedia" project has also received support from the Visegrád Foundation.

Training about machine translation tool WikiTrans and Wikipedia

WikiTrans, a program developed for free by Eckhard Bick, is able to translate from English to Wikipedia all 4,182,609 articles of the English-language Wikipedia. However, they cannot be automatically integrated to the Esperanto Wikipedia, because they need to be corrected, linguistically and technically. Proofreading of machine-translated articles can accelerate the growth of the size and quality of the Esperanto Wikipedia, much more than writing new articles.

Between the 1st and 5th of May, 2013, a workshop in the town of Partizánske (Slovakia) taught how to contribute to Wikipedia with the help of Wikitrans. There were also discussions about organization and technical aspects.

Sand Spring (Sabla Printempo)

E@I was a partner during the training seminary in the town of Písek, Czech Republic, organized by ĈEA (Czech Esperanto Association) and ĈEJ (Young Czech Esperantists), from the 9th to the 11th of April, 2010. Two board members (Peter Baláž and Marek Blahuš) gave talks about the activities of E@I and led practical trainings about the digitalization of materials (books, pictures, documents) and video editing (how to create subtitles).
