Wikimedia Hackathon 2020/Remote Hackathon/Instructional videos

Since this hackathon unconference is only virtual you can post here (short) educational videos that explain (generally in less than 5 minutes time) how to perform a certain activity or technique.


 * Some hints
 * Try to subtitle them in your own language with TimedText. To get the timing, just copy /paste an existing language.
 * Whenever you give a short demo, record the session (it is possible with Google Hanghouts, Jitsi, and other popular webinar tools).
 * Ask permission from the participants to do so; participants with the microphone muted are normally not depicted.
 * You can record a session where you are the single participant -> this allows you to record in all tranquillity, without stress.
 * You can prepare a script with text to tell, and demo steps to perform.
 * When you have multiple screens you can set the recording session, your script at the left window; your demo session being on the main screen.
 * A video, once recorded, can be seen again, offline, by thousands of peers looking for how to apply the same techniques.
