# | Type of advantage | Specifics | Quantifiable? | Comments and examples |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Training | Increased editing of the projects by trainees | Y | The assumption is that trainees continue editing with the same account, and accounts are logged at the workshop |
2 | Training | Spread of know-how through an institution by a trainee | Y | Survey prior to session, survey again one month later |
3 | Training | More appropriate editing by a trainee | N | For example, if a trainee who is on the comms staff of an institution simply refrains from editing with a conflict of interest, in the Wikipedia sense, who is to know? But the outcome is positive for Wikipedia. |
4 | Training | Workshop is accepted as a contribution to their professional development. | Y | Work with suitable agencies to get courses recognised as part of CPD programme. This would be quite a substantial piece of work |
5 | Outreach | Wikimedia awareness | Y | People generally have no idea of the various different meanings of "Wikimedia" (there being at least three) Survey prior to session, survey again one month later |
6 | Outreach | Referrals | More a question of logging than counting | For example: trainers are invited back by an institution. A trainer is invited to speak at a non-WMUK conference. A workshop results in a student project. (These are recent real-life examples.) Word-of-mouth from one institution to another. |
7 | Outreach | Returning customers | Hit and miss | Someone coming to a workshop goes to another, a conference, a meetup ... |
