 | Concrete planning continues here |
This is a proposal created to raise problems related with communications and how Portuguese Wikipedia can improve their relation with social media and the Press.
Identified problems of Portuguese Wikipedia and Wikimedia in general in Brazil
editar- Lack of organized movement in social media promoting and sharing events and anything related with Wikipedia.
- No contact group of persons for being reached by press
- Random persons are informally contacted to point to somebody to talk with.
- Rare cases of proactive contact with the Press for responding to news related with Wikimedia
- Almost complete absence of continuous and spontaneous outreach on social media and press, which usually happens in the course of a singular event.
- Recurrent mistakes from Press and big public regarding Wikipedia that are not reached by contributors
- Underuse of social media capacity to promote Wikimedia projects (e.g Facebook, Twitter)
