Hi Lauren,
Thank you for filling out the request questions!

I have a couple of clarifying questions:
So by "design assets for Wikimania" you mean a slide presentation (like Google Slides) and the Meta Page?
What should be on the Meta Page?
Do you already have the text that you will say during the presentation? Do you have more context on the event at Wikimania where you will present?
The format of the report is a Google Doc?
How many graphics are there to be updated with translations?

@LMiranda just pinging to see if you have seen the questions above.
It would also be great to see any materials/graphics etc. that you can share in advance, so I have a better overview.

Hi @hdothiduc I'm so sorry no, I had not seen these earlier messages. I'm also looping in Alex @Sadads as he will be leading the Wikimania presentation.

I have a couple of clarifying questions:
So by "design assets for Wikimania" you mean a slide presentation (like Google Slides) and the Meta Page?

  • correct. We need a polished slide deck and graphics for the meta page.

What should be on the Meta Page?

  • Likely a couple of key graphics that the other designer is working on for the report, we will want to repurpose some of these to create learning objects out of them. @Sadads what else?

Do you already have the text that you will say during the presentation? Do you have more context on the event at Wikimania where you will present?

  • We have the draft from the exec presentation but that will be iterated for the public presentation. Alex may have more to say on this.

The format of the report is a Google Doc?

  • I believe it will be a PDF but I am confirming.

How many graphics are there to be updated with translations?

  • just sent a request to Margiegh and the designer to confirm.

Realized I used Alex's personal account instead of WMF @Astinson

Hi @LMiranda and @Astinson / @Sadads

At the moment I am not quite able to start on any part of the request. I think everything will be more clear to me in our meeting next week.
Just wanted to comment on the above and to clarify/summarize my assumptions.

  1. Slide deck
    • you will create it the slides
    • I polish them and add graphics that you will require (and let me know more details)
  2. Meta Page
    • you will create the page
    • I upload graphics to Commons
  3. Translating design materials
    • you will provide the editable files (e.g. .ai or .eps for vector graphics)
    • I will either paste graphics in the Google Docs report document

I also noticed that you marked Blog in the task description. What deliverable is that referenced to?

  • correct. We need a polished slide deck and graphics for the meta page.

For the most part, we will need to take existing graphics, and transform them into decks -- I don't think this is going to need too much design -- actually with the version of the report that we got via the other designer.

What should be on the Meta Page?

  • Likely a couple of key graphics that the other designer is working on for the report, we will want to repurpose some of these to create learning objects out of them. @Sadads what else?

I think we may want to publish some of the tables as extracted individual documents/graphics (as opposed to part of a deep PDF). We may want to extract them from the

Do you already have the text that you will say during the presentation? Do you have more context on the event at Wikimania where you will present?

  • We have the draft from the exec presentation but that will be iterated for the public presentation. Alex may have more to say on this.

So we haven't been confirmed on the Wikimania presentation -- but it will be some of the narrative from the Exec presentation plus some specifics targeted for the Wikimedia community.

This sounds right! We are probably going to need help taking the steering committee version of the report text, and pushing it into the designed version -- when we do that copying of text over, we may need to redesign a handful of the page layouts because of the space requirement (same goes with translation probably, since Spanish is a much wordier language).

Great, I think I have a better understanding now of the overall help you need from me.
Looking forward to discussing the specifics :)

@LMiranda and @Sadads
Update:
I am familiarizing myself with the report document.
I have received (as far as I can see) all the materials to update the graphics on the specific pages that we talked about.
I am aware that some of these graphics have a relationship to the persona pages that I will work on later.
I will track more specific updates in the Google doc for this task.

I will share drafts for updated graphics early next week as I have decided to port the graphics from the contracted designer to Illustrator (original format is keynote).

Ciao Hang! As Wikimania is over, do you think this task is now resolved?

I think this task is now resolved!

I have notes/documentation about the creation of the assets in this google doc. Source files are in the Movement Organizers Research Shared Drive (Deliverables > Graphic Final Deliverables > Assets from Hang)

I'd be happy to hear any feedback you might receive from the community!
