Week 1: Spring 2017 Startup

Welcome to the Spring 2017 Digital Humanities Internship!

I have won a small grant from the Fundación Puertorriqueña de las Humanidades to translate I ♥︎️ Poetry into Spanish and redesign it as a bilingual website with stronger entry points and resources for K-12 students, educators, and the general public. Our focus will be on developing the site along several lines:

  • First things first, awaken I ♥︎️ Poetry from its dormant state. It’s been semi-dormant for the past two years and its time to get it going as a living project, which implies a number of translation
  • Make a fresh WordPress installation with the WordPress Multilingual plugin
  • import content from the original site and translate to Spanish. Most of the original entries are already translated offsite.
  • Redesign website & create resources for multiple audiences.
  • Launch new installation, mapping old URLs to new ones in the ht.access file.
  • Build plugins for metadata and search engine integration with http://cellproject.net/.
  • Adopt or develop plugins with library standards integration.

We will also be working on developing the English Department Website, which includes:

  • Online journalism.
  • Publicizing and covering events.
  • Updating and developing the English Department Website.
  • Other related duties.
