Additional announcements (i.e. "reminder", "final call") are not allowed.
Events should not be announced anywhere else in the forums. An exception is allowed for non-English forums; an event may be posted once, in one non-English forum.
Powwows are informal get-togethers of groups of ProZ.com users living in close proximity. The events are organized by local translators, for local translators.
2.2 - Where does the word 'Powwow' come from?
The Powwow is a Native American meeting tradition, sometimes involving competitive dance. The word has taken on the general meaning of a social meeting where tasks get accomplished.
Powwows have been viewed by some as a unifying force, since they are a common cultural element across otherwise diverse tribes.
2.3 - What happens at Powwows?
Powwows provide an opportunity for networking and informal socializing among language professionals--a chance to meet the people behind the profiles.
Most organizers offer attendees an opportunity to introduce themselves and make announcements. Sometimes, a theme is selected; examples include: 'CAT tools', 'Literature', 'Free-lancing', 'New Translators'. Sometimes an user volunteers to speak on a topic, and provided there is sufficient interest expressed by others, the organizer may permit this.
Some organizer have invited representatives from large clients, or CAT tools vendors, to speak or give demonstrations. This has generally been well-received. It is important, however, that the tone of such meetings be informative rather than commercial.
Some powwows have no agenda and no theme, and that is fine, too. Basically, if you are the organizer, it is your event to create!
Note: Organizers are required to record the names and IDs of users in attendance. To facilitate this, members are asked to bring their ProZ.com IDs. Users who attend should receive browniz, but that can only happen if they bring their membership numbers, and the organizer enters them into the online attendance sheet afterwards.
2.4 - من يحق له الحضور
Anyone who is registered with ProZ.com may attend, regardless of membership status. In addition, spouses, children and guests of members, as well as translators who are not ProZ.com members, are welcome.
2.5 - هل هناك رسوم للحضور
For now, there is no charge to attend a powwow. However, you will be expected by local organizers to contribute your portion of event expenses. If the powwow is a small coffee or dinner-meeting, it will probably be pay-your-own-way. For larger get-togethers, the local organizer will propose splitting fees related to food, drinks, etc.
In the future, there may be an attendance fee for non-member registered users of ProZ.com. The fee will be reduced or waived for students.
2.6 - هل أستطيع إحضار أطفال أو ضيوف
نعم، أفراد العائلة والضيوف مرحب بهم
2.7 - هل سيحضر ممثل عن بروز.كوم
In some cases, there will be a person empowered to verify identities. Registered users may have their identities verified by displaying photo ID to the designated representatives.
If you are organizing a powwow, and have had your own identity verified already, you may submit a support request asking for the right to verify the identities of others. You will be asked to confirm that you will only verify the identities of people who you meet in person and who show you photo ID.
To be shown banner ads of future powwows in your country, be sure to have your country (and home city and region) entered in your profile.
2.9 - كيف أقوم بتسجيل طلب مشاركة
Check the powwow board for a powwow in your area. Click through to the powwow near you and add your name if you are interested. (You may remove your name at any time, with no obligation.) To attach a note next to your name, enter text into the box before clicking.
Check back to the board from time to time to contribute to the planning or stay up to date.
2.10 - هل سيتوجب علي الحضور إذا قمت بتسجيل اسمي
Many people who add their names only want to make sure they will be kept informed. As an organizer, you should plan on only 40-50% of those who add their names to attend.
To get a better idea of exactly how many people will attend (for making reservations, etc.), ask people to confirm attendance in the week leading up to the event.
2.11 - Can I organize a Powwow?
If you are a ProZ.com member or a registered user with a verified identity, you may propose a powwow in your area by filling out the appropriate form on the powwow page. ProZ.com may or may not approve your powwow.
If your location is approved, the event is yours to plan. Your responsibilities will include deciding on a place to hold the event (and reserving that place), fixing the date and time, choosing a theme, and sending periodic notices to potential attendees to keep them up to date and involved in the planning.
You will be expected to take attendance at the event, and to enter that attendance data in the online form after the event is held (click "Enter Attendance" at the top of your powwow page). You are advised to bring to the powwow a printed copy of the paper attendance sheet, to be filled out by powwow attendees.
2.12 - I cannot find the "Enter attendance" link on the powwow page, why?
The [Enter Attendance] takes 24 hours to appear on the powwow page and it is only visible to the organizer of the powwow. If you are not the organizer, you can contact that person and ask him to enter the attendance.
2.13 - I uploaded my powwow's pictures and nothing happened.
The pictures you upload to your powwow page may take up to 24 hours to become visible. If after 24 hours you do not see the pictures, please try to upload them again or submit a support request .
2.14 - How are BrowniZ for organizing/attending Powwows awarded?
In order for the organizer and attendees to receive browniz, the organizer must complete the online attendance sheet. Browniz will be credited within a day of the attendance sheet having been filed.
If there is no official organizer, but someone who attended the Powwow has a completed attendance sheet (or knows everyone that attended), that person should submit a Support Request asking to be allowed to file attendance for the Powwow. They will receive the 2000 BrowniZ for doing so, and ensure that the attendees each receive their 200 BrowniZ.
It is impractical for ProZ.com staff to enter attendance for individuals. Organizers are relied on to take and report the attendance. If you have not received browniz for a powwow you attended, please contact the organizer of your powwow.

قبل المؤتمر:
- العثور على مكان مناسب
- التحقق من المكان بالاستعانة بقائمة التدقيق المقدمة من مخطط المؤتمر
-إنشاء وصيانة موقع على الشبكة خاص بالمؤتمر
- تطوير البرنامج(اقتراح المتحدثين الخارجيين، الفكرة الرئيسية للمؤتمر، مثلاً مجال الاختصاص الذي يعمل عليه المنظم المحلي)

The updates to the menu were made to make the site easy and more intuitive for visitors. Obviously, like any change, this may take a few days to get used to.
The dropdown menus have been divided into two-dimensional panels with similar items grouped together under headings. This eliminates scrolling for those with smaller screens, and also improves readability.
Mouseover your name at the top of the screen. Here you will find information about your account, your email settings, and more. The "My ProZ.com" menu was moved up here to simplify the main navigation, and to keep all of this type of information together.
