Wikimedia Hackathon 2023/Satellite events/nl

Wij nodigen lokale gemeenschappen uit om voor de hackathon evenementen of bijeenkomsten te organiseren of de Hackathon als groep in de eigen regio online te volgen. Op deze pagina groeit dan een lijst met dat soort activiteiten en hoe u daarbij betrokken kunt worden.



Wat is een satelliet evenement en hoe organiseert men die?


Een satelliet evenement wordt bedoeld een evenement dat door een groep mensen zelf wordt georganiseerd tijdens en naar aanleiding van de Wikimedia Hackathon. De doelen komen dan overeen, de wereldwijde technische gemeenschap van MediaWiki tezamen te brengen om elkaars ideeën op te pakken, technische discussies te voeren, samen te programmeren.

Deze evenementen kunnen op verschillende momenten plaatsvinden:


 * before the main event (typically, pre-hackathon events can be onboarding sessions, training and workshops for people who newly joined the Wikimedia projects or the technical community)
 * during the main event (to encourage people to work on projects in parallel and to interact online with technical contributors who are attending the in-person event in Athens)
 * after the main event (for example, folks who attended the event in Athens can share their experience with their local community, show what they did or learned. It can also be a follow-up event to keep working on projects initiated during the hackathon)

Dat kan ook in elke regio zijn of online. Het door uw lokale gemeenschap of gebruikersgroep organiseren van zo'n satelliet kan mensen die nieuw zijn in de techniek van Wikimedia ondersteunen, er is dan een alternatief voor de mensen die niet het evenement in Athene kunnen gaan bezoeken.

If you are looking for ideas of event formats, or examples of events, you can look at the list of meetups organized during the online Hackathon in 2022.



Checklist voor het organiseren van een satelliet evenement
Bent u enthousiast over het organiseren? Dank aan de volgende zaken:


 * Don’t do this all on your own! Reach out to your local chapter or user group, start discussions, create a group of people to work together on organizing the event
 * Define the frame of the event: What are the main goals? What is the target audience? How is it related to the Wikimedia Hackathon’s purpose? How will your event connect with the main event or other satellite events?
 * Define the logistics aspects of the event: Where will it take place? When, and for how long? How many people do you expect? What will they need to join and contribute? What would be the content of the event (program, activities)?
 * Define and reach out to the people you will need to run the event: do you need people with specific skills? Speakers or facilitators? Helpers for the logistics aspects? We encourage you to look for these people within your local community and support people looking to gather some experience in facilitation, event organization, etc.
 * We strongly encourage you to find a local partner to help you with the logistics of the event: depending on the context, you can reach out to a local university, library or hackerspace.
 * Plan the expenses needed for the event, and ask for funding if needed (if you want to apply for Rapid Fund maintained by the Wikimedia Foundation, the deadlines are March 20 and May 5, see more information in the section below)
 * Communicate about the event: create a section below to add the event to the list, create a sub-page if you need more space to add the schedule, participants list, etc. Reach out to your local tech communities on their favorite channels and the general hackathon channels, to let people know that the event will be happening.

Als u gegevens of ideeën wilt uitwisselen met mensen die belangstelling hebben voor de Hackathon of andere organisatoren van een satelliet, voel u vrij om dat via de kanalen van de Hackathon te doen. If you have specific questions for the hackathon organizing team, feel free to write at hackathon@wikimedia.org.



Fondsenwerving
If you need funding to organize a hackathon satellite event, you can apply to the Rapid Fund program maintained by the Wikimedia Foundation. The usual eligibility criteria apply, please check them before applying.

The Rapid Fund program is organized in rounds. Afhankelijk van het tijdstip van uw evenement en van wanneer u zekerheid moet hebben over het fonds en de ontvangst ervan, denk aan de bijbehorende deadline.

Om genoeg tijd te hebben om feedback te geven op uw plannen zodat u de eventuele door ons voorgestelde verbeteringen daarin mee kunt nemen, is het goed om zo snel mogelijk uw plannen bekend te maken en niet te wachten tot op de deadline!


 * If your event takes place in April, May or June 2023, you should apply until March 20:
 * Deadline to apply for funding: March 20
 * Approvals: April 14-19
 * Disbursements: April 19-29
 * If your event takes place in July 2023 or after, you also have the possibility to apply until May 5:
 * Deadline to apply for funding: May 5
 * Approvals: June 1-6
 * Disbursements: June 7-16

The application for Rapid Fund takes place on the platform Fluxx. You can find more information about the application process and examples of the expenses that can be funded.

The regional program officers and the evaluation team will be particularly attentive to the following aspects of your application:
 * You joined or formed a group of people that have prior experience in organizing events. Additionally, you reach out to a formal organization for support (user group or chapter, local partner)
 * Your team includes at least one person who attended a hackathon before and who knows how technical events in the Wikimedia movement work
 * Your team include people with technical skills who can help participants, mentor newcomers, or facilitate workshops
 * Your project is focused on the technical aspects of the Wikimedia projects, for example: developing scripts, bots or other tools, contributing to the codebase of Mediawiki and its extensions, reusing data on third-party tools, etc.
 * Your project has a connection with the main hackathon event or other satellite events
 * Your application includes realistic ideas of format, program, facilitators, and location for the event
 * Your application includes a description of the target audience of the event and how you plan to encourage your local community to participate

If you have any questions regarding the funding process or your funding application, you can reach out to your local program officer or join one of the Rapid Fund conversation hours.
