"}, "display_name": "Text", "content": "<h4>Experience Editor Trainings</h4>\n<p>In the last few years campaigns like SheSaid and WikiForHumanRights have made a significant pivot towards\u00a0<em>training existing editors to learn new skills in the Wikimedia movement.\u00a0</em>Historically, decentralized campaigns had a strong focus on newcomer skill development, but this shift is in part because of the added value for retaining and improving the impact of existing community members.\u00a0</p>\n<p>Training existing editing communities, has several added benefits: a) existing editors are already motivated, b) existing editors become more productive when introduced to new workflows, and c) its easier to focus existing editors on new topics, without the problems involved with working with new audiences who are new to topics (such as poorly scoped new Wikipedia articles).\u00a0</p>\n<p>For example, during the\u00a0Dagbani Wikimedians\u00a0<a href=\"https://diff.wikimedia.org/2023/07/24/dagbani-wikimedians-user-groups-article-and-wikidata-contest-for-275-parliamentarians-of-the-8th-parliament-of-the-4th-republic-of-ghana/\" target=\"[object Object]\">Parliamentarians of the 8th Parliament of the 4th Republic of Ghana Contest</a>, the Dagbani community was able to not only train their language community on Wikipedia, but another language community on how to create articles and use Wikidata.\u00a0</p>\n<p>Similarly, the\u00a0Code For Africa\u00a0<a href=\"https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Code_for_Africa%E2%80%99s_Wikipedian_in_Residence_Community\" target=\"[object Object]\">Wikipedian in Residence Community Program</a>, has pivoted towards training existing editors and organizers about different aspects of Wikimedia as a primary way of creating community, and preparing editors to work on important topics related to fact-checking and disinformation.\u00a0</p>\n<p>Experienced editor training, can help develop the audience for future campaigns while also bringing additional focus to topics, themes or tactics that can benefit you during future campaigns.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p></p>\n<p></p>"}
