Editing Votic language (section)

== Education ==
There have been multiple attempts in Votic language education. In 1995–1998, Votic language courses were held in St. Petersburg, which were organized by [[Mehmet Muslimov]]. These courses were attended by about 30 people. In 2003–2004, courses were held again, and these were also organized by Muslimov. Muslimov has also made Votic self-study material available on the internet.<ref>{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6u4SBgAAQBAJ&q=votic+language+speakers&pg=PA160 |title=Cultural and Linguistic Minorities in the Russian Federation and the European Union: Comparative Studies on Equality and Diversity |date=2015 |publisher=Springer |isbn=978-3-319-10455-3 |editor-last=Marten |editor-first=Heiko F. |language=en |editor-last2=Rießler |editor-first2=Michael |editor-last3=Saarikivi |editor-first3=Janne |editor-last4=Toivanen |editor-first4=Reetta}}</ref> During 2010–2015, there were Votic courses established, which were attended by around 10 people.<ref>Archived at [https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/CSOz1ARrM4k Ghostarchive]{{cbignore}} and the [https://web.archive.org/web/20190516001255/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSOz1ARrM4k Wayback Machine]{{cbignore}}: {{Cite web |title=Vadja aabitsa lugu |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSOz1ARrM4k |via=youtube.com}}{{cbignore}}</ref> There are also Votic events where studying material for Votic is given to people.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Vatjalaiset |url=http://www.inkeri.fi/inkerilaiset/vatjalaiset/ |access-date=17 February 2020 |website=Inkeri |date=28 February 2016 |language=fi}}</ref><ref>Archived at [https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/2hChJO_JrZs Ghostarchive]{{cbignore}} and the [https://web.archive.org/web/20200820192853/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hChJO_JrZs&gl=US&hl=en Wayback Machine]{{cbignore}}: {{Cite web |script-title=ru:Лужицкая складчина под Кингисеппом.
