TarfayaPedia uses QRpedia codes, a type of bar code a smartphone can read through its camera (using one of the many free QR readers available) that takes you to a Wikipedia article in your language. QR codes are extremely useful, as physical signs have no way of displaying the same amount of information and in a potentially huge number of languages. Articles have coordinates (geotags) to allow a virtual tour of the town using Wikipedia's mobile apps (or the Wikipedia layer on Google Streetview) and are available in augmented reality software including Layar. TarfayaPedia does not use standard black and white QR codes, in order to differentiate between our codes and other schemes and individual's codes. Participate We are very keen for local people to be involved however they wish. Computer skills are not important, it's the interest and the willingness to be involved, there is a wealth of opportunities for community involvement: Suggest and write content Donate photographs, both new and old Improve OpenStreetMap and Openseamap Recommend good reference materials Translate articles into other languages Learn and teach skills Partners (Organisations, Businesses and Chapters) CAP10 Foundation Antoine de Saint-Exupery Museum Wikimedia Morocco Contributors Please add yourself to this list if you contribute to an article, sign it using four tildes ~~~~ or click the Signature and Timestamp icon on the edit bar El Wali El Alaoui (talk) Reda Benkhadra (talk) أنس (talk) Sami Mlouhi (talk) Youssef Ben Haj Yahia (talk) Meriem Mach (talk) Omar Ghrida (talk) Reda Kerbouche (talk) MohamedChouta (talk) 14:58, 31 August 2017 (UTC) Please click here to learn more.
