Inuka team/ar

مقدمة
يدخل ملايين الأشخاص في المجتمعات الناشئة إلى الإنترنت لأول مرة. من الضروري أن تدعم مشاريعنا القراء الجدد وترحب بهم، مع إمكانية الوصول إلى المعرفة التي تتوافق مع كيفية استهلاكهم للمحتوى على الإنترنت.

جرى تشكيل فريق مؤسسة ويكيميديا Inuka (فريق منتَج القراء الجدد سابقًا) في يوليو 2019 كجزء من قسم المنتجات Product department. تتمثل مهمة الفريق في تقديم تجارب مُقنِعة لقراء ويكيبيديا في المجتمعات الناشئة، مما يؤدي إلى زيادة اعتماد ويكيبيديا والاحتفاظ بها في المناطق التي يتزايد فيها استخدام الإنترنت بسرعة.

لماذا هذا الاسم Inuka؟
Inuka هي كلمة سواحيلية تعني "ترتقي" أو "ترتفع" أو "تنهض". تتمثل مهمة فريقنا في زيادة أهمية ويكيبيديا ومحتويات مشاريع ويكيميديا الأخرى للقراء في المجتمعات الناشئة الذين لم يصلوا إليها بعد. اخترنا استخدام اسم من لغة يتحدث بها المواطنون في جزء من الأسواق الناشئة، في إفريقيا، كطريقة لتذكيرنا بالجمهور الذي نريد الوصول إليه من خلال خيارات منتجاتنا. إنه أمر طموح، ويُذكر الفريق بأن كل شيء نبنيه أو ننفذه، يجب أن يأخذنا نحو هدف زيادة القراء في جميع أنحاء العالم.

مبادئ الفريق
عند تصميم وبناء المنتجات للأشخاص في المجتمعات الناشئة، سيقوم هذا الفريق بما يلي:


 * أنشئ لخبرات الجوّال-أولاً
 * اكتشف عوامل الشكل الجديدة

2020/2021 plans
The past year was focused on building the Inuka team with a designer, two engineers and a technical program manager onboarded in the third quarter. The team also spent time identifying potential opportunities and focused work on the development of the beta version of the Wikipedia app for KaiOS.

In the 2020/2021 fiscal year, the team's priorities are:


 * To launch the beta version of the Wikipedia for KaiOS app. You can follow the progress of work on KaiOS on phabricator with the tag #kaios-wikipedia-app
 * To extend Wikipedia access to 3rd party sites through the development and piloting of Wikipedia Preview which shows previews of Wikipedia content
 * Work with communities to understand how we can serve readers in emerging markets better
 * Explore what contributions the team can make to Education based on the impacts of covid on the education sector

2019/2020 plans
In the 2019/2020 fiscal year, the team's priority is to add new form factors and localized content to substantially extend product experiences in order to grow readership worldwide.

The team plans to do this in the following ways:


 * 1) Design a custom Wikipedia app experience for smart feature phones
 * 2) Partner with communities to make the mobile web main page more useful to readers in Emerging Markets through new tools
 * 3) Extend Wikipedia experiences to external products

Initiative 1: Design a custom Wikipedia app for smart feature phones
Smart feature phones are reported to be in 100 million devices around the world. Based on the KaiOS platform, smart feature phones allow users to experience mobile apps in a similar fashion to apps on Android/iOS.

The experience of users on the Wikipedia mobile web is challenging because of the form factor of a feature phone with a none-touch screen. The team will build an experience to allow readers to easily access written knowledge in a form that fits the device.

Initiative 2: Make the mobile web main page more useful
The mobile web main page in many smaller wiki communities hardly changes as it requires substantive effort from community members to keep it up to date on a daily basis. The main page could be a great channel for readers to discover content that is useful and meaningful to them. The team will explore features that make it possible to increase the relevance of content for readers on the main page.

Initiative 3: Extend Wikipedia experiences to external products
The team will explore and experiment with making it possible to read and interact with Wikipedia content outside of Wikipedia.
