Tasks
The Wiki Academy Kosovo activities so far were concentrated on the dedicated wiki, so below are some tasks to warm you up for Wikimedia platforms.

Task 1

 * Translate the description of this image into Albanian or any other language currently missing. To check what is there, click on the image. To post your translation(s), start a new section on this page. Don't worry about formatting - we will do that later together. Beware of technical terms like grouper that may not be easy to translate.



Task 2

 * Take a look at the pictures submitted to the Photo Contest and see whether you can find wikis article where some of them might fit (usage stats so far). Try to insert them accordingly, and report about your observations by starting a new section on this page.

Task 2

 * Upload an(other) image to Wikimedia Commons. If you don't have one on your hard drive that you could make available under a free license right now, try searching Flickr. Once your file is uploaded (or if you've given up), let us know by starting a new section on this page.

Task 4

 * Review articles drafted by others in a recent Wikimedia workshop, and edit them as you see fit. Leave us a note here by starting a new section on this page.

Task 5

 * Choose a random multimedia file from PubMed (random selector takes a few seconds) and think about Wikipedia articles where this video or sound file would fit in (works best with headphones on). Let us know by starting a new section on this page.

Tasks 6

 * Have a look at the following visualizations of Wikimedia activity and share your observations by starting a new section on this page.
