Notes

Update on Climate Cardinals collaboration & joint editathon with WikiProject Climate change

The Climate Cardinals are similar to Translators without borders, but not professional translators. Lists are getting created that they can translate the leads for (green), along with leads that need to be improved that members of the user group can help ploishing (yellow) and those that we can have edithahons to improve (red). Some training will be given to them so that they can use the content translation tool on their own and publish articles without us being a bottleneck.

• Potential articles: Topics, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uulFfxAHF1Vt07PWEDk2go-agKKupRQ83r45_tByt2w/edit#gid=0

What could be done? Ideas wanted.
