Dear colleagues at WJH,

I'm writing to you to propose a proceeding for our upcoming workshop series titled, "OpenSpeaks Community language documentation and archiving training". It will run from 18 May till 3 September with seven online sessions and an in-person event.

The workshop will be based on a curriculum, an OER. Each online session will focus on one of the seven identified topics. The presentation will be recorded and published as an OER, while the in-person workshop will be more hands-on, creating/improving OERs and tools.

Here's a brief list of tentative articles:

1. Event curriculum (seven chapters of the curriculum can become an article of their own, these will be co-authored by the trainers)

2. A framework on community-based oral knowledge documentation (already peer-reviewed at Wiki Workshop 2026)

3. Text style guide inspired from EU's EBU-TT-D and BBC's style guide

4. Current article in pre-print which is also a learning resource

5. Each language we've documented has multiple audio and video files. We can explore creating media-focused articles for each one.

I've also made the same request on-wiki: https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Talk:WikiJournal_of_Humanities#Proposal_for_a_proceeding

Regards,

Subhashish
