Audience

Who are the people you want to introduce Wikipedia to?

Try to be as specific as possible about this group.
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE NEED TO GET INFORMATION OR THOSE WHO DO WANT TO KNOW ABOUT A SUBJECT BUT THEY DO NAT HAVE ANY SOURCE OF DOING SO.

In what languages do they search for information, online or otherwise?

THEIR NATIVE LAANGUAGE

In what ways does this group communicate with each other?

This can include services and apps in social media, mailing lists, physical spaces like conferences or lectures, or at specific institutions like at a library.
THROUGH ALL THAT THEY FIND

What are some reasons this group would use Wikipedia? How would they benefit from it, or what would they find useful?

Think about what they would be interested in reading and learning about; does Wikipedia provide better access to information this group cares about?
THEY WILL BE ABLE TO KNOW ABOUT SECONDARY INFORMATION ABOUT A SUBJECT IRRESPECTIVE OF THE FACT THAT THEY ONLY GET AN OVERVIEW.

Project idea

What language Wikipedia projects will you promote to new readers?

ENGLISH

How will you communicate with new readers? Will you be communicating with them online, in-person, or both?

I WILL COMMUNICATE TO THEM USING THE PLATFORM OF SOCIAL MEDIA.

Describe your idea to engage new readers. How might it be implemented? What will you tell people about Wikipedia?

Think about the steps that might involved to make this idea happen, and what you might teach people about your experience or others' experiences using Wikipedia.
ASK MAXIMUM NUMBER OF PEOPLE TO TALK TO SUCH PEOPLE AND GET AS MANY PEOPLE POSSIBLE SO AS TO WIDEN OUR PLATFORM OF ENGAGING MORE PEOPLE TO HELP PEOPLE KNOW ANOUT WIKIPEDIA.

How will you know if this project is successful? What are some outcomes that you can share after the project is completed?

If you’re not certain about how to respond to this question when starting your idea, you do not need to answer it right now. Campaign participants and Wikimedia Foundation staff can help you consider some options.
WE WILL KNOW AUTOMATICALLY IF OUR CAMPAIGN WAS SUCCESFUL OR NOT BECAUSE WE ARE RENDERING IT THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA.

Do you think you can implement this idea? What support do you need?

Do you need people with specific skills or resources to complete this idea? Are there any financial needs for this project? Do you need advising from Wikimedia Foundation staff?
I WILL NEED THE HELP OF PEOPLE TO SPREAD A WORD ABOUT OUR CAMPAIGN
