notes
- consider use of AI to develop Wikipedia articles
- in this example, Abhishek demonstrates articles using Perplexity
- en:Perplexity.ai
- https://www.perplexity.ai/
- whatever you see here is mostly generated by AI, almost entirely as-is
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexism_in_Bollywood
- Question: what is AI generated?
- everything, including wikilinks and citations
- WikiConference Healthcare
- application at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Conference
- due 2 September
- organizers in India told WMF grant officer Chen to expect a grant application
- meta:User:CAlmog_(WMF)
- One part of the application is submitting a community survey
- what should the name of the event be?
- perhaps keep it broad to be more inclusive of health editors
- Should we call it SWASTHA conference?
- no, because SWASTHA is just one healthcare project and everyone is invited
- What do we think of the questions in this "Community Engagement Survey"
- they are sufficient
- Who is the audience for this survey?
- The Wikimedia Foundation requests this from conference grant applicants
- how do we get people to complete the survey?
- we ask in the general mailing lists and organizers ask in their own social groups
- what other meetings do we need?
- we should meet again before the grant proposal submission
- what time should we meet?
- the meeting time for this meeting may work
- how can we get support from Wikimedia Medicine?
- just ask them - they are an active group which meets regularly and discusses by email
- would they support? yes, but they are likely to ask about a virtual attendance option as their members are global
- what would conference location be?
- there are a few proposals, any could work
- Bangladesh was a proposal but because of current politics that seems like it is no longer an option
- review of action items
- Complete the engagenemt survey
- Send the mail
- Finalize dates and location for the Conference
- Complete the draft grant application form
- anything else to discuss this call?
- how do we stay in touch till next meeting?
- through whatsapp group chat
