Wikimedia Hackathon 2023/Participate/yue

維基媒體 Hackathon（編程馬拉松）將會喺2023年5月19-21號喺希臘雅典舉行｡ 今次活動主要係現場參與，部分環節網上直播；各地社羣亦可能會喺活動前舉辦活動｡ 你喺爾度可以搵到點樣參加、會場係點、點去會場、可以住邊、點攞獎學金等等｡

今次活動本身係免費參加，但係交通同住宿就要自費，除非參加者申請到獎學金，或者所屬機構會畀資助（例如係維基媒體基金會嘅員工，或者分會員工）｡

為咗保障現場參加者嘅安全同健康，大會將會實施針對新冠疫情嘅防疫措施，防疫守則未來會喺活動前事先公佈，但係預計可能包括每日要自我檢測、室內要戴口罩等等.

參加雅典嘅維基媒體 Hackathon 要事先報名，報名網站會一直開放，直到參加人數達到會場能夠容納嘅人數上限（大概220人）｡

The information that you provide while filling out this form will not be shared publicly and will only be accessed by the Hackathon coordination team (WMF staff). If you apply for a scholarship, the data will also be shared with the scholarship committee (see below). The registration and scholarship application form runs with Pretix, an open source third-party service, which may subject it to additional terms. For more information on privacy and data-handling, see the privacy statement.

獎學金
In order to support the technical community and to increase diversity among participants, the Wikimedia Foundation runs a scholarship program that will support a selection of technical contributors to allow them to attend the onsite event by taking care of their travel and accommodation.

The scholarship application process is open from registration opening to January 14th, 2023, as part of the registration process. Recipients will be notified at the latest on January 31st so they can proceed with travel booking and visa requests if needed.

The scholarship program aims to support engaged members of the technical community. We will prioritize people who have been contributing to the technical environment of the Wikimedia projects for at least one year. Contributors from underrepresented communities are especially encouraged to submit a scholarship application.

The scholarship committee is composed of Léa Lacroix, Srishti Sethi, Ariel Glenn and Marios Magioladitis, and they will review scholarship applications and rank participants based on the following criteria:


 * Active involvement in technical projects in Wikimedia's ecosystem
 * Plans and projects for the Hackathon
 * Geographic/Gender diversity

Please note that full time Wikimedia staff members are not eligible for a scholarship. If you’re WMF staff, please refer to the internal selection process or talk to your manager regarding your attendance.

Wikimedia affiliates may run their own scholarship process in order to support members of their community to attend the hackathon. Details on scholarships that may be provided by Wikimedia affiliates will be added here when more information is available.

Target audience
The 2023 edition of the Wikimedia Hackathon will focus on bringing together people who already contributed to technical aspects of the Wikimedia projects, who know how to find their way on the technical ecosystem, and who are able to work or collaborate on projects rather autonomously.

This is a change to the previous “one-fits-all-model”. There are multiple reasons why we want to try something new, based on lessons learned from previous Wikimedia Hackathons and other tech events and workshops:


 * Hosting an event that allows already active and regular technical contributors to connect, work with each other, learn new things and have very specific technical discussions, while also onboarding people new to Wikimedia and/or development to get started has been quite a big stretch.
 * Wikimedia’s technical ecosystem spans many different technical areas and has endless options to contribute and to learn. We need a space where our existing technical community across skills, interests and expertise can come together to connect, hack, and learn from each other.
 * Workshops and smaller events designed around specific skills and technical areas seem to be a better way to help people get started. For example, regular local tech meetups, initiatives like Small Wiki Toolkits, newcomer focused tech sessions at Wikimania, local or regional conferences with a tech track, or a local hackathon for newcomers with focus on a specific field.
 * The international Wikimedia Hackathon isn’t best suited to onboard and build up new local technical communities - it’s a venue to bring people from all over the world together, who might act as bridges to their local communities.

Other events in the Wikimedia Movement are targeted at newcomers: people who are new to Wikimedia and/or development are welcome to attend Wikimania 2023, where technical sessions will take place, or other newcomers-friendly events. (Please add more to the list).

Practically, we are welcoming all participants up to the maximum capacity of the venue, and for the scholarship selection process, we require applicants to demonstrate that they have been active on technical projects for at least one year. The program will include a project matching session during the opening, and introductions to various tools and projects, but we will not run a mentoring program for newcomers. Participants are expected to be able to propose or join projects and to start hacking autonomously.
