Wikipedia:GLAM/PoliMi/2022
From 27 June to 1 July 2022, an intensive course on Science, technology, society and Wikipedia for PhD students will be run, in person and online, by the Polytechnic University of Milan (PoliMi), Italy, with the collaboration of Wikimedia Italia.
Start time: 9:30am Italian time; see World Time Buddy for your local time.
Mission and goals
The course aims to provide some hands-on training in technical writing and, at the same time, to contribute to the general diffusion of scientific and technical knowledge. This will be achieved by engaging Politecnico's Ph.D. students in the production of new material (or improvement of existing material) for Wikipedia.
Attendees are PhD students in various science and technology degrees, in particular engineering, architecture and industrial design. They will write articles in English or Italian.

- Teachers: prof. Guido Raos and prof. Fabio Parmeggiani

What we do
Each student will produce one complete Wikipedia article or more in English and/or Italian. The choice of the language is by the student.
As alternative to the creation of a new article (preferred choice), it is possible to produce extensions to one or more existing articles. The bare translation of an article is not considered sufficient.
The articles will be chosen during the first/second day in agreement with the teachers, and with the tutors' assistance.
New articles will be developed in individual sandboxes. The full articles have to be published by the morning of the last day of the course (1 July).
Additionally, every student should improve at least other 3 articles.
