The Wikipedia Street Take Over; Learning, Unlearning and Relearning. The Wikipedia Street Take Over Project [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Wikipedia_Street_Take_Over/Report] was a 60-seconds (for each individual) video story-telling that saw me as the presenter go into the streets of Abuja, Nigeria and find out the Wikipedia awareness of Nigerians and publish on social media in Igbo language [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igbo_language]. The session will be a splendid opportunity to analyse the project, find out what worked, what could have worked and what didn't work.

Translation workshops are as impactful as edit-a-thons and as such there is need to share some quick guides on organizing successful translation workshops with focus on what works well, what are the difficulties and crowdsourcing participants by democratising the choice of what should be translated.
