Two participants working together during the edit-a-thon
Iedereen WIKI (Dutch for Everybody WIKI) is a project of the local library of Ternat supported by Wikimedia Belgium. The project's aim is to digitally unlock local knowledge by making digital data accessible for everyone and to stimulate skills. During the project local heritage organisations and other interested people get an introduction and help in editing Wikipedia, also, students edit Wikipedia and upload photos about a local topic.
The project is a pilot project funded by the province of Flemish-Brabant and has two phases: phase one in Spring 2018 and phase two in Autumn 2018. In the second phase the project is enlarged to neighbouring libraries.
During April three activities were organised:
21 April 2018 - Multimedia walk in which participants take photographs in Ternat
22 April 2018 - Edit-a-thon Iedereen wiki in library Ternat
26 April 2018 - Wikipedia session with school class in Ternat in which a school class writes a Wikipedia article about the castle of Ternat
